You need, for lack of a better term, an 'upgrade' of your existing account to do so. If you go to the link they gave me, about halfway down there is a 'Click Here to open the registration page' When you go to that screen, in the upper left, since you already have an existing account, you sign in with that account. That starts the process of requesting access for your existing account to new.familysearch.org. That also lets you login in Legacy Family Search. Once again, the link is: https://help.familysearch.org/publishing/859/112926_f.SAL_Public.html Paul From: David C Abernathy [mailto:da...@schmeckabernathy.com] Sent: March-10-12 11:10 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Family Search Help Are you logging into the New or the Old family search? Try new.familysearch.org, if you cannot login at that URL, then you are not getting into the “NEW” family search. My old account was disabled, now my new account will login to the “Old” family search but not the new one. It also will not login through Legacy.

I see two of you have suddenly gained access! I suggest anyone on the list who has a FamilySearch ID go ahead and give it a try again, even if you were waiting to hear something from NFS; maybe you will also gain access to NFS right away. Or even if you don't, go ahead and follow the link Paul posted and register for access. Maybe it is going much faster now :-) Exciting news for everyone I hope!!

The link below is an article on how to register for new.familysearch.org. On the registration page, one can use an existing family search account, or create a new one. I used my existing account. I was granted access. It’s a wonderful resource, I have so much to learn.

I had to do that but I know that they later linked our User sign ons to multiple areas of the LDS.org site, etc. so we use one sign on for multiple things. I will see if I can find what you are referring to though and maybe someone else here will know off hand. Maybe there is someone on here who is a volunteer with NFS customer service; those people know a LOT :-) You are right that activating Legacy's LFS features right now won't do you much good. It's designed to search for your people in NFS and allow you to compare information, combine duplicates, etc. I'll post here if I find that info for you :-) Kathy On Fri, Mar 9, 2012 at 2:18 PM, Paul Gray <grayp...@telus.net> wrote: Hi Kathy, I am not LDS, and I have had a regular FamilySearch account for some time. I’ve used it for, among other things ordering films to be delivered to my local FHC. When I try to sign on to new.familysearch.org I get the expected ‘Your account is not ready for new.familysearch.org’. Until I have access to NFS, I see no reason to activate LFS in Legacy Family Tree. When I try to register for new.familysearch.org it wants me to create a brand new account, which I would rather not do. I seem to remember a link to a page somewhere where you could sign on with (or identify) your existing account, and request an ‘upgrade’ to a new.familysearch.org account. You would go on a list, and at some point be granted access. Could you, or anyone else on this list who knows it, paste a link to it here? Thanks Paul Gray From: Kathy Meyer [mailto:kmeyer2...@gmail.com] Sent: March-08-12 6:46 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Family Search Help There are two different sites, 3 really, if you can still access the 'old' familysearch site. 1-www.familysearch.org - you can search all of the extracted and indexed records - this archive is added to constantly due to the continuing efforts of thousands of volunteers all over the world. This is accessible to anyone in the world for FREE 2-www.new.familysearch.org - this is the one that includes family pedigrees submitted from thousands of individuals, primarily LDS members, over the years. The 'old' familysearch had much of this information but it wasn't connected into family trees like it is now. The LDS members have been working on clearing up duplication, catching bugs, suggesting improvements and adding more data to this huge family tree for the last few years. The general public is getting access to this site gradually and has been over the last several months. Go to this site and click on the register button, fill out the form and wait. It could take a week or several months. There is no timeline that can be promised on this. This is a site with family trees, therefore, SECONDARY information from other researchers. A lot of people confuse these two sites; this one will be available to everyone for free once everything is implemented and it is ready for the influx of users when they do a general release. Does that help?

I know things have changed & are changing but is it still possible to use it at all for non-LDS?
