Folks:
I purchased the program Families to run on an iPod Touch. I then purchased an
iPad2 and downloaded the program to that. I am having difficulty syncing my
Legacy data base to either machine. In fact I can't get the Families program to
start on my desktop.
I am totally confused. Any help
Presumably you mean Families Sync on the desktop. What do you see when you try
to run it?

Hi everyone: I know this program is LDS based so I'm a little shy asking this.

(as in so many families these days) we have some couples who lived together for
many years, but did not marry, no children. Also,

I would just link them together but mark them as unmarried.

There is an option on the marriage screen to choose their marriage status
and you can choose 'unmarried'. You could add your own 'status' of 'same

have two people of the same sex in a marriage. You could add one as male

Legacy is NOT LDS based. It does however contain a lot of LDS related

The web page(s) you've created with Legacy already contain the HTML code

you're doing!) or use a program such as Komposer (free) or Microsoft

David,
If you have the pedigree set to print 6 generations per page then boxes
are not allowed. There is no room on the page for them when 6
generations are included. Change the generations per page to 4 or 5 and
you will be able to include boxes.

Sandra,
wow this topic is a hard one.
First of all if a man and a woman live together and have a child you can use the
marriage information and say that this couple never married. Depending to to
local laws just enter the name of the child the surname depends to your local
laws.
