A gedcom can only hold media LINKS not the media itself. That is why
you can’t see the media on Ancestry. You have to upload the media
manually one at a time. This is a limitation of gedcoms.

Thanks Michele,
That explains the problems.
My main problem was exporting to a gedcom and importing to Ancestry.
Where do I out the media?
I don't expect a serious answer to that really, anyway I don't really
want to publish all my media to ancestry

If you export to a gedcom, the media links export. If you
reimport that gedcom (on the same computer) your media will be
intact. If you reimport on a different computer you will have to
copy the media and put it on that computer. If you put it in the
exact same place as it was on the first computer then your links
won’t be broken. If it is in a different place, you will only
need to run the Relinker and Legacy will find the files.

Hi Michele,
In that case what am I doing wrong when I export to a Gedcom as I
never get any media?

The only problem with that is you loose any media you have as
well :-(

I had to do some trial and error. The trick was to EXPORT
as a GEDCOM not as a Legacy file. Then IMPORT the GEDCOM
replacing the Do Over file.
But it worked! Yippee!
Thank you so much.
I kept my original file from over the years but wanted a
clean slate with this file to be sure I correctly do my
citations and sources. Now I can move forward to the fun
stuff...research.

Ok. I just exported the file, supposedly without

Hi, Naomi --
I did this last year. Rather than copy
the file and remove the
sources, I exported to a Legacy file with
everything except the
sources.

I am doing a modified Do Over. I have
made a copy of my family
file in Legacy. Now I want to remove
ALL the sources and
citations in my Do Over file so I can
start fresh with them.
How do I do this?
