From what others have said, you seem to be taking something of a risk if Dropbox is holding your original Legacy files, even if they are backed up to Backblaze. What happens if something happens to you or your computer, Dropbox drops you because you haven't been able to log in within their 90/120 day limit and Backblaze goes bust or is taken down by hackers before you can rescue your files? There's no reason why you shouldn't keep doing it the way you are BUT keep another copy on an external hard drive you can lodge with a trusted friend or a relative. MJ SA's use of a flash drive is good because you can keep it in your purse so it's with you all the time - just in case. -- Charani (UK) OPC for Walton, Ashcott, Shapwick, Greinton and Clutton, SOM http://wsom-opc.org.uk Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
