Hi all, Can anyone tell me if there is a limit on the number of people you can have in your file? I currently have over 27,000 and I am afraid I may be running out of space.

Hi, I'm having trouble backing up my program to the Legacy Cloud. It keeps telling me my password is rejected. I then checked to make sure I registered correctly but it says I'm registered. I have been backing up to the cloud before now with no problems, this just started about a week ago. Any clues as to what I might have done wrong?

Re: [LegacyUG] Changing Drives
Nothing seems to be working as far as the media goes. My data is fine,thank goodness but I had over 12,000 media items attached.Pictures,census,military and all kinds of vital records. That is why I needed to move them to an external hard drive as my C drive is only 120 Gigs. But it seems like I didn't do it properly. I thought I could just move them to the external hard drive and change where Legacy looked for them but that hasn't worked. It seems like I have all the right locations listed for it to look in but something is still off. I hadn't done as Cathy suggested - choose Properties, then the Location tab - but it was too late for that. I should have asked before I moved things. Thanks all for the suggestions but does anybody have any more ideas?

You should use File > Backup Family File.

I hope this isn't considered off topic as this is to use with Legacy. Anyone using Find a Grave for Legacy?? I am trying but it seems as if your names must follow strict guidelines. In my database I have added a comment in the suffix field for some. Such as "wife of" if I don't have a last name. However this seems to throw off the extracting of names for the purpose of matching them with Find A Grave memorials. I have too many this way to correct them plus I really find it helpful.

Re: [LegacyUG] Customizing colors
Thanks again,but I finally gave up and set it back to default which worked but I also lost my other customization settings. Now if I can just remember how I had my other settings. That's why I didn't want to go back to default. Appreciate that you guys got back to me so quickly.

[LegacyUG] Customizing colors
Hi all, please help! I was attempting to customize the colors and made several changes and checked them out. Then back and forth several times changing things. Now the connection to change the colors won't open. Program just locks up and I have to close it. This seems to be the only thing affected otherwise the program is still working if I reopen it. Now I have a very ugly screen as I was experimenting. -- Sheila Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

[LegacyUG] Legacy update
Hi, Thanks everyone, tried everything, now got the BEPSC in the index, also the reports, BUT still not got them in the NAME LIST and am finding it very annoying. Maybe it is a change made in the update, I am sure things will be better once all the teething troubles are ironed out, but at the moment I am very disappointed with the way it is working, I have spent all week just sorting things out, when I first download the update it lost ALL my family records, luckily I had back ups, so please be careful people. All I want to do is family history and I seem to be turning into a computer geek.
