Thanks, Sherry - I was able to confirm the auto update of the app to V1.6.0, to download V1.4.5.0 of Families Sync, and to successfully sync my Legacy file to my Kindle Fire.
I just needed to be pointed in the right direction, after I lost my notes (map <g>) as to how to do these things. Last question - you say below you received an email to update Families Sync. I've never gotten an email like that, what am I missing? (sorry if this last question is off-topic).
