Hi Lorilynn, You don't have to sign up to use www.familysearch.org where the IGI search is.
The IGI is a resource of mixed usefulness. It is made up of parish register transcriptions and LDS member submissions. The former are very useful within the limits of transcriptions which always have some errors, the latter are very variable and at best a clue.
Note there are two entries to familysearch.org from Legacy currently. One is through the Internet Menu - and is a very blunt tool (It's also under the Search Menu) - Search Internet for Current Person - with a variety of sites to choose from including familysearch.org.
The new one is under the Search Menu - Search the IGI website
Perhaps you are actually searching one of the other websites?

Hello, I am new to your group. I am noticing all the hype about the IGI. I signed up and got a usuer account, but when I try to use it from my legacy problems it says "problem logging in to family searc.org, then when i click ok it says your are nont currently signed to search the IGI, and I may want to check my family search account information and opitions. I have looked for this but do not see options and selecting search account settings. Hmmm, can anyone help me see what and where I am missing it? Thank YOU. Lorilynn
