What app do you use to 'sync' Legacy between your MAIN computer and a SECONDARY 
computer?

What do you feel is the advantage of your choice vs another app?

1a. DROPBOX (via cloud) for  Legacy data and media, and

1b. EVERNOTE (via cloud) for Research

2. Advantage "set it and forget it"

OTHER:  For backup I use ACRONIS to create two (2) regularly scheduled backups:
1. local NAS, and
2. Acronis Cloud.

Hi

I also just use the Legacy Cloud. When I got a 2nd laptop (for friends/
family tho still use it myself) I wanted Legacy on that too, so got a tip
off this group and now use their Cloud.
I do, however. also have my tree on Genes Reunited, and I have an external
hard drive backed up to this laptop.

All the best, Sarah Hughes

I use the Legacy cloud for the data - no extra app needed; simple to use.
Backup on one computer; restore on the other.

I do date entry ONLY on the desktop; pictures are linked on the desktop;
all backed up to external drive and a flash drive too. I use the laptop to
carry around with me while researching.  And I also use Families for my
phone.  Again, easy syncing from desktop to phone.

Re: [LegacyUG] Survey - Syncing

2020-03-29 Thread limitless.eternity
I use Dropbox.  The reason for it is that my family members in other locations 
are able to see the exact same file.  However, I do not put all my media there. 
 I keep my media on my hard drive, but I try to link all media that is 
available online with an internet address in the sources, as well as 
referencing the downloaded copy on my hard drive.  This is because as far as I 
can tell, Legacy uses what I’ve called a hard directory system rather than a 
relative one.  In other words, the link to the media takes you to the exact 
place on the hard drive rather than moving up or down one directory from where 
it already is.  Again, my reasoning is based on access by other individuals 
throughout the world, not just my own two or three computers that I could set 
up exactly the same structure if I chose.



I do with there was a mobile version of it, though!

Re: [LegacyUG] Survey - Syncing

2020-03-29 Thread John Francis
I live in a somewhat remote rural area where the broadband speed is 
about 1.5 Mb/s, so I avoid doing anything via cloud. I simply transfer 
.fdb files and appropriate media files via a USB memory stick. Quick and 
easy. My backups are to an external hard disk.
