I installed Families on and old iPad a few weeks ago, and when I had some problems, I found the link that David mentioned. I had the same concerns as you, but entered my problems and had responses within one day. One of my problems was a real bug, took a few days to get resolved, but it was handl

The potential problem is simply to alert you that there may be an issue that you might want to check further. You do have the ability to tell the program that the pp is not really a problem and you don't want to be alerted again. How does that qualify as a bells and whistle that the program/progr

I am looking for a way to get my genealogy data on my Ipad air. I see that there is an app called "families" that will do that. I found discussions in the archives of this list, but could only see messages that are several years old. I am wondering if most of you are still using this app, or is

Re: [LegacyUG] Date Range for Quarters

Interestingly if you replace the "-" by " to " then some of these numeric ranges are recognized. For example 1 to 3 1850 becomes Jan to Mar 1850. However, if you accidentally tab before putting in the year 1 to 3 becomes (on my system) 1 Mar. The logic defeats me. David On 18/03/2014 18:16, Bob A

RE: [LegacyUG] Date Range for Quarters

Hi Alan, Legacy v8 414 converts jan-mar 1856 to Jan-Mar 1856. Legacy does recognize this as a date range. So it appears that date range functionality is still there. V8 no longer converts 1-3 1856 to Jan-Mar 1856 but, annoyingly, treats it as a specific date - either 1 Mar 1856 or Jan 3 1856
