Re: [LegacyUG] Pictures missing after upgrade to version 7.4
Hi to everyone Thanks heaps for the info regarding missing pictures, but I still am unsure why I needed to find them in the first place. All was working until I upgraded. I have sorted out the problem thanks to all for your help.

If you have reached the screen which shows the ? and are then clicking on "Picture" and locating the file, you are in fact loading a second picture, not re-locating the first one. If you double-click on the big ? Legacy will produce a Find File dialog box. Using that will re-attach the original, not load another copy of it. -- Jenny M Benson 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/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp

I simple do not understand why you have lost your pictures, moving from the Standard to the Delux version does not break these links, nor does updating. Only you know where your photos actually are. If Legacy cannot find a photo, instead of letting Legcy find it, do it yourself. In Family view, click on the Picture Icon, select an unknown picture, seach for, and select it. Legacy will then know where every picture in this directory is. Repeat for every directory. In other words you only need to identify one picture in each directory for Legacy to find the lot.

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.

[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.
