Hi Gwen, You are not alone.....it happens to me EVERY time I upgrade. I learned a while back to save my colors. My labels on the Family page, File Edit etc however did not change to a white background. Hope someone knows where to change that? Have you tried just closing and opening Legacy to see they somehow reset themselves?

I was curious to see if anyone else had the same problem. I have my colors saved in the color folder. I also note that the Labels on the Family page File | Edit | etc all have a white background to them now, in the form of a rectangle, is there anyway I can turn that off, it is quite distracting. Thanks for your help.
