Re: [LegacyUG] Export a select file

[Cathy Pinner]

Cheryl,
If you need to use a variety of Advanced tagging options to get the 
group of people you want to export, you just use the same tag number for 
each. Then you export the tagged group.


Sometimes the easiest way to get most of the people you want is to set 
relationships to a key person for the group you want to export and then 
search for Individual - Relationship - equal to - Related and tag them. 
You'll want in the export to add the surrounding parents, spouses and 
children with the checkboxes in the box where you say which tag group to 
export.

Re: [LegacyUG] Procedure for installing and using OneDrive to backup my Legacy media files?

[Barbara]

Thank you so much for the detailed instructions! I have followed them, and now 
have my backups in OneDrive.

 

 

From: LegacyUserGroup [mailto:legacyusergroup-boun...@legacyusers.com] On 
Behalf Of Leon Chapman

To: Legacy User Group 
Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Procedure for installing and using OneDrive to backup 
my Legacy media files?

 

Here is an answer to basic backup.

 

1. In Legacy, go to File >Backup File

2. At bottom right, Click HELP >Show Help Topic. or watch a video.

 

This HELP completely talks about backups and the Legacy Cloud backup in 5 steps.

 

OneDrive Backup

1. In Legacy, go to File >Backup File

2. Select Backup to My Computer (Family File & Media Files)

3. Click CHANGE to far right of Family File

4. A windows file manger will open and you can then locate your OneDrive folder 
(e.g:  \OneDrive\Legacy Backups\ ) and save the Legacy Backupup files in that 
folder.  If you also have the Media Files selected for backup, Legacy asks if 
you want to change the Media backup location to the same as Family File and the 
answer would be YES.  Note:  I would suggest you create the \OneDrive\Legacy 
Backups\ folder before starting steps 1-4 above - see step 3 below.

 

Questions about OneDrive:

1.  Do I have OneDrive on my system?

 A.  Yes, If you have Windows 8.1 or 10, it was automatically installed

 B.  Yes, if you have Office 360 installed

 

2. How can I see if OneDrive is installed?

 A.  You can use the Windows File manager (the yellow folder icon at bottom 
in task bar) - Click on it, you should see in the left side window a folder 
called OneDrive and maybe a few subfolders if you have created any.

 

3.  How do I create a new subfolder under OneDrive called:  \OneDrive\Legacy 
Backups\ ?

 A. You can use the Windows File manager (the yellow folder icon at bottom 
in task bar) - Click on it, you should see in the left side window a folder 
called OneDrive

 B. Right Click on OneDrive >New >Folder

 C. Type the new folder name as:  Legacy Backup

 D. Hit return.   You should see the new folder under OneDrive in your 
screen on left side.

 

4.  What if I don't have a OneDrive Subfolder or OneDrive is not installed?

 A.  You will need to download OneDrive from Microsoft and create an 
account.

 B.  Here is the link to do that:

Re: [LegacyUG] Procedure for installing and using OneDrive to backup my Legacy media files?

[J.M. "Jay" Ingalls]

Legacy's backup procedure saves two separate "zip"=compressed files, 
data and media. When doing a "restore", both files are needed.



The zipped data file can be saved to the Legacy cloud and to the same 
hard drive as the program is on, or to an external drive.



The zipped media file can NOT be saved to the Legacy cloud. It can be 
saved to the same hard drive as the program is on, or to an external drive.



I want to be able to save the backup zip file of Legacy Media files at 
OneDrive. To use if my computer dies, etc. Then would install Legacy to 
the new computer, copy the media zip file from OneDrive to the new 
computer, unzip it, and add the media files to the Legacy media folder. 
I can get the "data" files from the Legacy cloud backup.



I already save a copy of photo files to Google Drive for free. Not the 
highest resolution, but should be OK if needed. I also backup the Legacy 
zip files of data and media to two external hard drives. But, if all the 
files in our house are lost in a fire or tornado, the data base could be 
re-created from the cloud files.



Gedcom files can also be made to save our data, but will not save media. 
Any Legacy update could destroy our existing Legacy data...



I only use my Legacy data on my home computer. Do not want to access it 
any other way!



Hope this is correct and makes sense to everyone.


I just need help with the OneDrive install and setup as previously 
indicated. My old brain can not seem to follow the instructions I have 
found so far!

Re: [LegacyUG] Export a select file

[JV Leavitt]

No. My example was for descendants, but you can use the same Tagging 
feature, only start by Tagging ancestors first.  Tag any sections, 
ancestors, and/or descendants, and/or individuals, and then go to 
Export, and choose All records with an individual tag of: (select the 
Tag number you used), and start the export.


Be happy.  :-)

If I use tagging I would need to export a file for each furthest ancestor

Re: [LegacyUG] Export a select file

[Cheryl Rothwell]

I did it. It doesn't include everything I want. (When I start with the
youngest it drops his siblings for instance.) However, I can live with it.

A bigger issue is the process apparently delinks people. I've tried it
three exports three different ways (to see what I get) and I always get
delinks of several sets of a child in the direct link from his parents. The
child and the parents are there, just not linked to each other. (And not
the same sets of child/parents in each file so I can't figure out the
issue.) They are linked in the original file. It is easy enough to relink
them but it makes creating the new file a lot more work. (I said his
parents because, so far, it has always been a male line. Probably not
relevant.)

Re: [LegacyUG] Export a select file

[JV Leavitt]

The best method is to use the Tagging features.  I often do this in a 
way to include spouse's parents.  If you first Tag all descendants, and 
then go to export, the program gives you the option of selecting all 
records with an individual Tag of: All their Spouses, and/or all their 
Children, and/or all their Parents.  If you want to include other 
sections, then Tag them too, before exporting.  If you want to also 
include or exclude any particular records before exporting, then you can 
do it manually, one-by-one, if you want.


After you export your file, open it, and see if it includes all those

Yes there is. I did one for descendants, I really don't know if it can be
done for ancestors. I'm sure someone has experience with this.  I used a
focus group to do it.  Not much help, I am afraid.

[LegacyUG] Export a select file

[Cheryl Rothwell]

I want to export a section of my file specific to my cousin. She's new to
this, doesn't want or need my people who aren't related to her. I've tried
a couple things but haven't gotten what I want. I am thinking it will
involve a focus group. If I use an Individual and Ancestors it does not
include the collaterals. I would like to start with the youngest person,
include their ancestors but also their ancestors' spouses, siblings, etc.
Is there a way to do this?

Re: [LegacyUG] Dates when not really known

[Al Greene]

My feeling is to continue to use "Abt., or at the very least, Circa. It
would appear that the programmers have attempted to "standardize" this
feature so everyone would be on the same page. In most case my "Abt"s are
within + or - 5 yrs. For the neophyte, or for others reading our
genealogies, that prefix is easier to understand.

Re: [LegacyUG] Restore in Legacy 9 did not include my media files

Hi

Look where you had the media files stored and check if the new install is 
looking in the right place for the files

Hi Roxanne, since no has addressed your problem to help you out I will add my 
two cents.



If your old computer is still working and providing that you have been backing 
up your media files on your old computer then just copy your old media files to 
a USB stick or burn them to a disk or copy them to a portable hard drive than 
transfer them into your new computer.
