Vista is > terrible, at this stage. You can't download things easily. It only came > with junky programs or ones that you can only get for 60 day trial period. > Because of Vista, you have to get extra help from the companies before you > can download your favorite old programs or installation discs. Everyone > told me AFTER I bought the computer that I should have waited till Microsoft > got the bugs worked out, just as they did with XP. OR, I could have gotten > a computer built with XP and the programs we use. Our only solution now > may be to spend more money to have Vista wiped off the harddrive and have XP > installed back on the computer. So much for sales. > > Legacy walked me through the download via the web ONLY. Discs didn't work. > But, now that I have Legacy downloaded, it's BLANK! (I'm shouting with > frustration!) All my data is still on my old laptop with XP. Does anyone > have suggestions for transferring the data? > > One other big question, when I retrieve info from Ancestry.com, how can I > import it directly to Legacy? I usually have to write it in longhand and > then type it into Legacy. That's very time consuming and prone to mistakes. > Thanks for any suggestions to these problems. > Donna Brown > > > Legacy User Group guidelines: > http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp > Archived messages: > > http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ > Online technical support: > http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp > To unsubscribe: > http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
