I have replied to Andrew off this list because graphics and attachments
are not allow by the list rules. I need some screen shots from him. If
we are able to resolve or find an explanation of his problem I will
report back.

Thanks Brian,
So, it appears that no parents are recorded on FamilySearch.org for this
individual. So why can I not use the FS popup to simply click the "move
to right hand side" for this individual's father and mother and
done...? The only option I get for the parents is ‘unlink’…
Must I go onto the web site FamilySearch.org to manually add each parent
using the ID that I already have in Legacy, but cannot perform that
function from the FS popup dialog?
Thanks,
Andrew

You have eliminated two of the three possible reasons so by elimination
check for the third reason "The person is linked to the wrong individual
in FamilySearch." That becomes the most likely.
I just had a case in my own file where my file had different parents for
the FS person. The parents did not display and had the red chain icon on
the My Legacy Person side of the screen because of that difference.
A careful examination of the sources in my file revealed that I had
linked my Legacy person to the wrong FS person based on similar names of
parents but I had added an incorrect spouse from a marriage record.
Examining the source details for the marriage revealed that the
incorrect person was born in Ireland according to the marriage source
while my person was born in Canada.
I unlinked my person by deleting the incorrect FSID. A new search found
the correct FSID so the person is now linked to the correct parents both
in my file and in FamilySearch.org. I have unlinked the incorrect spouse
and children, deleted a whole bunch of events which applied to the
incorrect person and will now have to rebuild the person's family (FS
has a different spouse and list of children).
