Re: [LegacyUG] Date problem
Hi Jennie I went there before I posted. I have just changed my setting to what you mentioned and the dates now read Aug 12, 1920 for example I need them to read 12 Aug 1920 I was able to do this before. Have been using this program for many many years and this is the first time I have had this problem.

[LegacyUG] Date problem
Hi everyone I am not sure if I am doing this wrong or not. In the past I was able to enter a date in an easy form if the date was 4 Oct 1942 I would enter 4 10 1942 and this would be filled in correctly in the date field on my main individual view. Today I have found I can no longer do this if I type:- 4 10 1942 for 4 Oct 1942 I get the result 10 Apr 1942? Has anyone experience this and if so is there a work around?

Re: [LegacyUG] Announcement from the staff
Hi everyone Just wondering how to update Legacy without issue. It seems there are a few problems. Does anyone know if Microsoft has done the update as mentioned in the email below? Do I need to run the update from the legacy tab. Close down anti virus and any other windows open? Will this be ok or are there still issues. I would appreciate guidance with this update.

[LegacyUG] Color schemes legacy 8
Hello everyone I have hunted the net for an answer to this without an joy. I would love to know how once you have set and changed the global background of the family view along with tab changes etc, how do I save this as my default with a new name. Everytime I change it then go out of the program, it reverts back to the vintage solar scheme. I know I am missing something here, but when I go to colours I do not see a save as 'your name' option. Is it under customise maybe. I would love any help with this as I do not really like any of the colour schemes fully and would like to add my slant to that.

Hello again I am in the stages of using Family sync to transfer my legacy files to our ipad 2 I am wondering if I need to have itunes installed on my pc side of my imac (have it already on the mac side) to be able to use and transfer these files to my ipad. Or will it work without installing itunes on the pac. I have downloaded Families on my ipad in the ready. Thank you anyone for their help with this.

Re: [LegacyUG] New Mac
You would need to run something like Parallels which is what I do myself. Once setup it is quite easy to use, and Legacy can be run from there. You can also drag an drop files from Parallels to Os if it is setup to do so.

Re: [LegacyUG] Families iPhnoe app
Thankyou John for your wonderful explanation. I feel this is the right program for me. I was just wondering how I 'update to the legacy database to reflect all of my changes made' I am using a mac with parallels and use Legacy family tree latest version. I do not expect Families to be the same as Legacy but am I right in saying it is like a holding/viewing program, and from there I need to use 'Families Sync free program' to upload my data to the ipad. It seems to me I have to upload to Families, and then to the sync program? to view it on my ipad. Appreciate your time with this, before I go ahead an buy it at $19 for the ipad. What a clever invention. Regards Gwen On 11/05/2011, at 8:03 AM, hwedhlor wrote: Gwen, I am running the Families app on both an iPhone 3Gs and an iPad 2, and I heartily recommend it. I was a beta for the Families app when it was only available to run on the iPhone. Running it on the iPad 2 offers an even better display, and easier access to features due to the larger visual format. Please do not think of Families as a version of Legacy Family Tree. Families was developed by an entirely different company, to run under a completely different operating system on totally different hardware than Legacy. Having worked in the computer industry since 1965 I understand that duplicating program features across hardware and operating system boundaries is not a simple process. The task is a bit like being asked to copy the Queen Mary, but as a submarine, using plans written in a language you don't speak or read. Passengers from the Queen Mary want visit the bottom of the ocean in your submarine, but they expect the same amenities they were used to enjoying on the Queen Mary! Rather than concentrate on which Legacy features are missing from the Families app, I celebrate the fact that I can now do field research, and document findings, without having to carry a laptop. Navigating through my Legacy databases with Families is done on a familiar user interface, while the iPhone and iPad 2 allow me to photograph documents found in the field. Although Families will probably never duplicate the enormous feature list of Legacy, Families does offer the user the option to make fundamental data entries on the portable Apple devices they choose to carry, then to update their Legacy database to reflect all of those entries. The creators of the Families app have proven to be very supportive of their user base, and I look for them to add features over time. If you are a Legacy user, and own an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, you will find no better genealogy software than the Families app for use on your Apple device.

Re: [LegacyUG] Search for event details
Hi there Thankyou to Dennis and the Bain family. I think you have hit the nail on the head. I have events for all the census years, where I can and out of the 3863 in my search 131 had still got the 1911 date in them. I shall take heed and do the tag and search and see if it improves the situation. Ta for that Gwen On 6/08/2010, at 12:39 PM, Dennis M. Kowallek wrote: This problem pops up at least once a year on the LUG. If you have an individual with 2 events, one event WITH a 1911 date and one event WITHOUT, what happens when you tell Legacy to list individuals WITHOUT a 1911 date? It will list this individual because at least one of the dates WAS NOT 1911. So if you really want to find individuals WITHOUT any 1911 events, you should first tag everyone in your database. Then search for individuals WITH a 1911 event. Then UNTAG these individuals. The tagged individuals that are left are those WITHOUT any 1911 events. Confused yet? Maybe someone else can do better with this explanation. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools *** On Thu, 5 Aug 2010 16:46:56 -0700, Bain Family rlcb...@gotsky.com wrote: Of the 1911 Census people who were improperly included, have you checked them to be sure their 1911 date is in the date section and not in the description section?

[LegacyUG] Latest update changed colors
Hi again everyone It seems that every time I update Legacy it changes my color selections I have always used, and defaults to the ones Legacy wants to use. I have kept my color scheme thankfully, but I still cannot remember how to change the Label color on the Edit event screen. They are in Red and I want to change it to something more subdue. Also I note that the Labels on the Family screen File | Edit | Add | View etc now have a white background with white Black Text for the labels. I would like to change the background if it is possible. Thanks for any help, and I do wonder why every time a change in the way of an update arrives, it changes my color scheme? Any ideas.

[LegacyUG] Searching the notes fields
Hi I know tis has probably been asked and answered dozens of times, but how do I do a search for information contained within my notes field either General Research or Medical. It never seems easy to me, and I always get lost when I need to do any other search other than Individual, Marriage or Death. Thanks for any help in advance.

[LegacyUG] Pictures missing after upgrade to version 7.4
Hi everyone I recently upgraded to ver 7.4 paid version and now I have to go through the laborious task of telling Legacy where some of my pictures are situated. It seems it can find the ones directly in the Picture directory, but not the ones as an extension of this directory. I sort mine out with each directory for each category. Can I not do that no? Thanks for any help, I do not really want to have to manually seek and find each of 55 photos which it states are missing. The report also says Missing.txt but they are all jpg's.

Re: [LegacyUG] Pictures missing after upgrade to version 7.4
Further to my query, I note when I go in manually and check the missing photos there is a question mark on the photo, even though the picture icon located on the family view page. However when I go find the photo that is missing, put it back in as the right one, I then end up with two identical photos in there even though the initial check showed a missing photo with a ? mark. This is so frustrating and is there something I am doing wrong.
