Oh, happy day! I googled to learn more about Tree Vault and your video popped up first. Yeah! Gonna listen now to my goto guy...
@IowaKim3 жыл бұрын
Now I've listened, wondering what the cost is-will have to look it up. I use OneDrive as my backup, but recently my sync failed and had to do a live chat with FTM (after compacting..yada..yada). Result was I had to reupload my tree to Ancestry (new tree, new name there) and thus lose ALL my email invites (had to reinvite to the new tree with explanation) and all the DNA links now point to the old tree and I all the DNA tests have the old tree in their settings fixed. Grrr. Wonder if I could have rolled back if that would have fixed this situation? Hmmm.

RE: Storing data on FamilyTree Maker's Cloud...As you mentioned in the video, FT's 'Cloud' feature is 'FREE' this year, but what about future years...like next year, etc. I've used FT for years and years, but prices keep increasing and now paying for future cloud use? Not sure I want to add the extra expense and have to depend upon the cloud that continues to cost and rise in price over the years...Flash Drives are inexpensive and I have a trove of them!
@DNAFamilyTrees4 жыл бұрын
i like the roll back feature and the cloud feature and yeah they have to remain price competitive or else will drop it. I personally use my FTM saved to C drive, which is robocopied to an external drive. That drive is synced with Google drive in cloud so i have a portalbe version, local version and cloud version for the price of google drive (where is store other family photos etc.) This is a nice genealogy specific feature and if kept cheap i will use it to safeguard this separately and so family can find it later (when im not here to show them) but only if it remains cost effective because like you, i have better, economical options if it goes up.

Please don’t consider the antenna tree as a backup of your data. It is an emergency backup only and by that I mean only if you’d be happy to restore profile photos and no other media, no source citations, no note text. It’s going to serve a purpose of having access via an iphone or ipad (and eventually android) and being able to see facts marked as private that are not uploaded to Ancestry when out and about researching. But its definitely not going to be a useful backup.

Is storing on cloud an optional extra to purchase? And does one have to sync with Ancestry, or is that an optional extra to purchase also? I am just investigating FTM 2019, as my son thinks I should upgrade from my old FTM as it is very basic and I can no longer add photos. It's 2005 or 2007. I could do more on it when it was new.

the older versions are obsolete for sure. You do not have to link to ancestry or familysearch. (although family search is free so i would) there are alot of new features since that version :) you can color code lines, drag and drop photoes, pdfs, word docs etc to a persons media reference. alot of nice things.

Is there away I can do that database migration by loading a tool to do that, and upgrade or new version. What bothers me is I have built and sold about 50 Windows 11 PC's and this is the first time I have heard that a database had to be rebuilt when moved from Windows 10 to Windows 11......

@DNAFamilyTrees3 жыл бұрын
it may delete the data if you delete the one it is tied to. BUT you can use the merge feature. On the menu, 4th over says "PERSON" next to bottom, merge two specific individuals. OR if you want to do many of them at once, you can use the "EDIT" on the menu and then pick "Find Duplicate People" this will bring up all the duplicates and suspected duplicates in file. Make sure to not just accepted them! review each. Now if it has a 100% score it is identical and that can be merged but anything not 100% sure to be same, needs a review, even if short.
