Jamie, what you said to Mike is exactly what I was talking about. I've been using Legacy for some time, but it doesn't sound as if they will be taking that road. Even though I really like Legacy, I would consider switching if others offered that flexibility and Legacy didn't. Thanks for putting

I don't know of any genealogy programs that are stored on a server. Those who offer web space, such as Ancestry and other "tree" pages, have definite problems, mainly the lack of flexibility you get with desktop programs. Searches, reports, sorts, etc are quite limited. And when you decide

Mike, It could be more like Microsoft Office products, where you subscribe to the software, such as Word, and you can save your documents in your OneDrive account or on your computer or another cloud storage, such as Dropbox. With the OneDrive (a cloud storage space), you can access documents

Thanks Sherry. I have a chromebook, an android phone, and a desktop PC. There is another possibility for some people who have something like I have. There is Chrome Remote Desktop. This will allow you to remotely access your computer, with Chrome or Android. This works very well, but if someone

You don't need a gedcom to import into RM (only if you want to exclude notes etc. you have to use gedcom). Yesterday I imported a legacy gedcom file into RM without problems (about 4 individuals, but it was only a basic gedcom. What format gedcom did you use? Evert 2016-01-20 19:09 GMT+01:00

Is it allowed that Legacy 8 Deluxe Edition which I purchased a couple years ago be downloaded to a second computer or must I purchase an additional copy? I can't seem to break into my Legacy account as the password is not recognized and can't get a response for help with that as my only email

There doesn't seem to be a trial version for Family Bee. You have to pay the $10 to try it out. Not good in my opinion since there's some complaints about importing GEDCOMs. Bill Boswell -Original Message- From: David Cripps [mailto:cri...@netspace.net.au] Sent: Friday, January 22,

Thank you once again. It's possible that I don't really understand how the cloud could work (or not) with Legacy. Is it not possible to have the program itself in the cloud, and it could sync with the Windows version of Legacy? If it is possible, that seems like it would be a great thing for a

I like it. I wouldn't use it for my working database although you can make changes and then sync back to your main PC easily. I like that it has s much info. It's not the watered down version of your database like some are. So much of your data is accessible when you're away from your PC.
