HI again Jenny: In pondering what you told me, I was able to take my Desktop folder of my pictures that had been moved from Legacy/Pictures and put them back. I also saw how I need to rename some of the pictures so they are more uniform. I'm doing that now . . . I'll report back later . . . after the "LA Laker basketball semifinals."

What am I doing wrong? I'm getting very confused here! Are we talking about 2 separate problems? - 1, that you originally had multiple copies of photos in your Legacy\Pictures folder and 2, that when you print (or preview) a Picture Scrapbook, you are not seeing what you think you should, according to the Options you have set? If I've got that right, *moving* all the contents of the Pictures folder (not copying, that leaves all the files in the original folder as well as the new one, not what you want) and then putting them back one at a time as you decide which ones you want - and renaming them as you go along if that's what you want - is a valid way of dealing with what I have outlined as Problem 1. I would run "Test all multimedia paths" when you're done, to make sure you're not introducing more problems. With regard to the 2 pictures were page, where you were wanting 9 - have you opted to included ALL the photos in your family file or just the ones for the "current individual"? (And make sure the "current individual" showing up is the person you wanted - I've slipped up a few times by having the wrong person focussed when I've opened the Publishing Centre.) If you want all the pictures in your family file, how many are there? More than 2, presumably. If you want just the pictures for the current individual, how many are there for that person? Now, what options have you selected with regard to which photos to show? There are 4 choices and you can have all or any - Individual pictures, Individual Event pictures, Marriage pictures and Marriage Event pictures. If you have only selected the first option, but several of the pictures attached to that person are actually attached to various Events you won't see them. I'm hoping the solution is in there somewhere, because I'm running out of ideas!! -- Jenny M Benson 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
