I would like to know if there is a way to let the program/site know that one person in tree A is also member of tree B on the same site. I find it annoying when workning with fotos and smart matches that I can't create a link between the enries that refer to the same person.
Best regards,
Anna Engström
PS. Is there some thing wrong with the "How do I show one person in two locations in my online tree?"-link on http://www.myheritage.se/help/sv/? When I use it the same page opens again.
Thank you for writing and we appreciate your patience.
There is currently no possible way to show that one person in a tree is also another person of another tree. From taking a look at your account I could see that you have two sites with the exact same trees in them. Would you mind telling me what is the purpose so maybe I can treat the underlying cause instead?
I'm organizing my trees to one site and there I like to have one tree for each grandparent. That means that their children, grandchildern and so on will show on severl trees. Thats the people I would like to connect so the site and program understand that theier are the same people. It would be easier when workning with photos to not set several taggs to each photo. It would all so be nice to see what realation I have to the people in diffrent trees not just one.
Thats basiclly the way I was thinking. Sugestions for approch it in a diffrent way or if the developers can make this new feathers happen later on would be nice.
How do I change how the dates are written? I use the Swedish language version, but the dates are weird, they change to the English way of writing them, no matter how i do. If I write, for exemple, "28 december 2012" like we do in Swedish, the program change it to "Dec 28 2012", where it should be "28 dec 2012". It would be really good if you could choose yourself how you want the dates to be written, but I've not find a way to change that anywhere.
Are you using the online version or FTB on its own? If you are using FTB you can set to read "dd/mm/yr" the way we do in Australia, but I think the online version uses the American way "mm/dd/yr", which, btw in my opinion, and I think a lot of others, is catering to the minority of users. From what I have seen in these forums over the years, most countries use the "dd/mm/yr" in one form or another. I think the developers should cater for EVERYONE, not only the users in USA, by changing the default to user setting.
This is a funny thing about MyHeritage, they develop the program in Israel, but use the American way of writing dates! These comments may offend Nth American users, but I stand by my comments. It is most concerning when you see dates like 11/12/2012 not knowing whether it is 11th December 2012 (which I would read it as) or 12 November 2012.
I checked the logic behind the date formats in the online family tree with the developers and I found that date formats go according to your language setting.
However, at this time, the online tree only supports US date formats when you're using the tree in English.
I immediately requested that the developers reconsider this practice and add support for UK English in order to allow the "day month year" date format.
I apologize for the inconvenience. We're doing some improvements on the family tree right now, so I'm going to try to get this pushed through quickly. I can't make promises, but I'll definitely try.....
I can't show my web-tree in classic look anymore since I discovered that the web side has been upgraded recently.
Is there anyone who knows if that option has been removed?
My grandma has four children and I was able to add three of them with her two marriages. However she has another child iinbetween the two marriages and I need to add my uncle but can't seem to without attaching him to one of the marriages. The thing is his father is unknown, no one knows who he is. Can anyone help me?
You can insert another 'spouse' (call him 'unknown' if you like; If the child's name was Mary I sometimes call him "Mary's Dad". I don't know how that affects the alphabetical lookups in the program but it sounds nicer!)
But don't check the box for 'married', check it for 'partner' (I checked the box for 'Friend' once!).
Jag loggade in på min släktsida ikväll och såg att utseendet var förändrat sedan jag sist var inloggad. Jag villl se släktträdet i "klassisk look" men det verkar som att den funktionen är borttagen?
Jag är också missbelåten med att inte kunna välja klassisk vy. Det var lättare att förstå/se sammanhang i den versionen. Den nya versionen av släktträdet anser jag inte förbättrat sig så särskilt mycket.
Hi,I can understand that you might have doubts when you find the online tree you're familiar with has changed.
So, what's so great about the new tree?
The look of the tree hasn't changed much so you don't need to relearn how to use the tree. Viewing, navigating and searching the tree is basically the same and editing the tree is very much the same as well.
There are some nice additions though, like the Radar, which allow you to see a "map" of the tree and instantly jump to any place. In the previous version if you wanted to travel through the tree, you had to click and drag endlessly to get anywhere.
The new tree editor only has one style (or view) right now - the Classic view has been discontinued - but that will change as we're adding some new styles so you will still be able to see the tree in the view you like best.
In the new online tree when you hover over a person or click on that person's card in the tree you get their basic information, rather than seeing it on the left hand side in a panel. This gives you a lot more real estate for viewing the family tree in context and it also shows you information about people in a more dynamic, integrated fashion. If before you had to click on each person in the tree to see their basic info, now all you have to do is move your mouse around to anyone and their info immediately pops up.
We streamlined the editing options. For example, in the previous version of the family tree editor you also had a lot of other options that didn't really belong in the ADD phase. All those options have appropriate places now that make much more sense. There are more flexible options for adding dates in the new tree editor. You can add dates like "before", "after", "from...to...", etc. Adding and editing marriages and partnerships is quicker now too as the fields are located in the instant, basic editing fields.
Birthday and anniversary notifications are bigger and brighter, add me cards show you where you need to add more ancestors, you can invite people directly from the tree by adding email addresses and more.
An important change in the new online family tree is that it is now HTML5 based. This means you can access and edit the tree from any mobile device or tablet, which was not possible before. The switch to HTML5 also made it possible for us to offer editing in the MyHeritage app, which is great for people who edit their trees online - you can now truely edit your tree anywhere, anytime.
Family Tree Builder users will also benefit from editing in the new tree as version 7.0 of the program will offer the ability to make edits online and integrate them into your tree in the program.
We're really starting to bring together all the different aspects of MyHeritage to give you a more seamless experience.
There are a lot of good things about the new online family tree. I hope you will give the new online family tree a try and come to appreciate the improvements we've made.
Best regards,EstherMyHeritage team
Hej,
Jag kan förstå att du kan ha tvivel när du hittar på nätet trädet du är bekant med har ändrats.
Så, vad är så bra om den nya träd?
Utseendet på trädet har inte förändrats mycket så att du inte behöver lära om hur man använder trädet. Visa, navigera och söka trädet är i grunden samma och redigera trädet är mycket samma också.
Det finns några trevliga tillägg men liksom radar, som gör att du kan se en "karta" av trädet och direkt hoppa till en plats. I den tidigare versionen om du ville resa genom trädet, var du tvungen att klicka och dra i oändlighet för att komma någonstans.
Den nytt träd redaktör har bara en stil (eller visa) just nu - den klassiska vyn har utgått - men det kommer att förändras när vi lägga till några nya stilar så att du kommer fortfarande att kunna se trädet i den vy du gillar bäst .
I den nya online-träd när du för muspekaren över en person eller klicka på den personens kort i trädet får du deras grundläggande information, snarare än att se den på vänster sida i en panel. Detta ger dig en mycket mer fastigheter för visning i släktträdet i ett sammanhang och det visar också du information om människor i en mer dynamisk, integrerat sätt. Om innan du var tvungen att klicka på varje person i trädet för att se deras grundläggande information, nu allt du behöver göra är att flytta musen runt till någon och deras info genast dyker upp.
Vi strömlinjeformade redigeringsmöjligheter. Till exempel i den tidigare versionen av släktträd editor du hade också en hel del andra alternativ som inte riktigt hör hemma i ADD fasen. Alla dessa alternativ har lämpliga platser nu att göra mycket mer meningsfullt. Det finns mer flexibla alternativ för att lägga datum i nytt träd redaktör. Du kan lägga till datum som "före", "efter", "från ... till ..." osv Lägga till och redigera äktenskap och partnerskap är snabbare nu också gäller de områden är belägna i de ögonblick, grundläggande redigeringsfunktioner fält.
Födelsedag och årsdag meddelanden är större och ljusare, lägga mig kort visar dig var du behöver lägga till fler förfäder, kan du bjuda in människor direkt från trädet genom att lägga e-postadresser och mycket mer.
En viktig förändring i den nya släktträd är att det nu är HTML5 baserad. Detta innebär att du kan komma åt och redigera trädet från en mobil enhet eller tablett, vilket inte var möjligt tidigare. Övergången till HTML5 gjorde det också möjligt för oss att erbjuda redigering i MyHeritage app, som är bra för människor som redigerar sina träd på nätet - du kan nu truely redigera ditt träd varsomhelst, närsomhelst.
Family Tree Builder användare kommer också att dra nytta redigering i nytt träd som version 7,0 av programmet kommer att erbjuda möjligheten att göra ändringar på nätet och integrera dem i ditt träd i programmet.
Vi börjar verkligen att samla alla olika aspekter av MyHeritage för att ge dig en mer sömlös upplevelse.
Det finns en hel del bra saker om den nya släktträd. Jag hoppas att ni kommer att ge den nya släktträd ett försök och kommit att uppskatta de förbättringar vi har gjort.
Tree builder keeps wanting me to upgrade. I paid for a year. Before i add a tree I want to know it will be accepted over 250 people. My account shows it was charged. Do I have to pay extra for the builder upgrade also. Does it accept a GEDCOM with photos.
איך אפשר לבצע מחקר על משפח כשאתה שואל על אדם ספציפי עם נתוניו בפולין ומקבל "התאמות" להונלולו. הרי אם אדם נולד ונקבר בפולין (הוא ומשפחתו) אין שמץ התאמה לארה"ב או קנדה. היכן המקורות שהובטחו עם רישומים וארכיבים של מדינות אירופה ? כמובן לפני התשלום והעלאת הדרוג ? אגב איך זה שעד היום לא טרחו לתקן את העברית-אנגלית מטשס זה התאמות ולא משחקים כפי שכאן "מתרגמים" מישהו יקרא ויטרח לתקן ? מדוע אין מייל לתקשורת ישירה לתמיכה וצריך לעבור תרגילים למינהם ולא לקבל תשובה פשוטה פיני ולדמן. ס (mattches)
אני רוצה להתייחס לדוגמא שלך ולהציע לך הסברים ללמה מנוע החיפוש בכל זאת מחפש רישומים מארה"ב וקנדה: אם אדם נולד ונקבר בפולין עדיין ייתכן שהוא היה אזרח ארה"ב, הרי ייתכן שהוא בחר לחיות בארץ אחרת, ולכן זה יכול להראות מקורות נישואים למשל שיכולים להיות רלוונטיים. כמובן אם אתה מגדיר לידה בפולין, זה בהחלט לא הגיוני שהוא גם יחפש לך לידה גם בארה"ב אבל בשביל זה יש לך את האפשרות לבחור אפשרויות סינון נוספות.
אני רוצה להציע לך כמה טיפים שאתה יכול להשתמש בהם על מנת להפוך את החיפוש לקל ויעיל יותר:
1. בחר קטגוריה של תוצאות שברצונך לחקור מ'לצמצם לפי הקטגוריה'. אם אתה יודע לאיזו קטגוריה אתה מעוניין תבצע לחיצה על הקישור לקטגוריה זו. לאחר מכן תוכל לצמצם את תוצאות חיפוש על ידי הוספת קריטריונים נוספים כמו שם או שנה.
2. אם אתם יודעים שאתם מעוניינים בכמה קריטריונים ספציפיים "סנן את התוצאות לפי:" שבדף תוצאות החיפוש הוא מקום מצוין כדי לסנן את תוצאות החיפוש. חפש בחלק זה בפינה הימנית התחתונה של דף תוצאות החיפוש. ברגע שתאתר את הסעיף שכותרתו "סנן את התוצאות לפי:", לחץ על שם הפרטי או כל קטגוריה אחרת, באמצעות הכלי הזה - רוב התוצאות הלא רלוונטיות נמחקות!
3. זה תמיד הכי טוב לחפש קריטריונים כלליים ולאחר מכן לצמצם את התוצאות קצת בכל פעם. אם אתה רוצה להכניס את כל הפרטים שאתה יודע על האדם בסיבוב הראשון תנסה את ה"חיפוש המתקדם". החיפוש המתקדם מאפשר לך להגדיר את סוג ההתאמה ומספק שדות חיפוש שאינם זמינים בחיפוש הבסיסי. רק תזכור לחשוב על מה שאתה בדיוק מחפש והכנס את הפרטים בהתאם. לדוגמה, אם אתם מחפשים את רישום הלידה של סבתא, הקפד להזין את שם נעוריה כקריטריון החיפוש.
תגיד לי אם זה יעזור לך לחפש טוב יותר. סעיף מספר 2 הוא טוב במיוחד על מנת למיין תוצאות.
תוכל בבקשה להפנות אותנו לדף שבו מילה זאת כתובה על מנת שנוכל לתקן זאת? אנחנו שמחים שהעלית את הטעויות בתרגום ואנחנו נעבוד במרץ על מנת ליצור סביבה שהיא נתמכת בצורה מלאה בעברית.

I need to change a parent/fix a relationship. I cannot figure out how to do this? Fix relationship does not seem to work - Please help.
I added a sister that should be a wife to a different member. Also need to update a daughter to a different father. I don’t see any easy way of doing these changes?
Thank you for writing and we appreciate your patience.
I can see that you are having some trouble regarding connecting people to different parts of the tree. I would like to guide you through some instructions that should help you:
1. Open your family tree.
2. Click on a person's card and a window should appear (Take a look at screenshot "Persons_Pop_up").
3. Click on "More v" and a drop down menu should appear.
4. Click on "Connect to existing person".
5. You will have a selection to choose what kind of connection do you want the person to be connected to... a parent? partner? or child?
6. Once you select one of them you will be able to type in the name of a person on the tree, the search will locate the person and you will be able to choose him.
7. Different options will appear for different connections, once you fill out all the relevant information - click on OK and you're done!
We hope this helps you.
Please, let us know if you need any additional assistance.
Since 10 days it has been impossible to update my tree on the web. This happens.
The tree on my PC loads. - The FTB says "Connecting to site" - "Preparing files" - "Uploading projedt files" the size is 286,5 MB and takes over ONE hour to upload!!!! Rediciolous it is NOT. Last time I uploaded it, it was 32 MB and I have only added about 15 names and 3 photos. - "Waiting for the site to process the upload" - and there it stops at about 10%. Have had the program "working" for over 12 hours with no result.
I have a VERY high end PC and my net.connection is VERY fast. Normally I can download/upload 1 GB in less than 10 minutes.
OK so I uninstalled and reinstalled FTB and now I can NOT even upload the files, because my project does NOT show up in the Publish dialog box!
Jack; One problem was when you uploadeded a 'new' tree to your web site. Each tree has its own 'special' i.d. number and by uploading the new tree, you were issued another number by MyHeritage. MyHeritage needs to stop doing this as it plays havoc on a persons tree!

This is NOT a new upload, this is the same tree I have had on the web for a looong time. What I want to do is PUBLISH my tree, after some modifications/addings.
By the way, I CAN "Publish" now, the files are uploaded (after 2 hrs) BUT the publishing stops after about 10% when the publisher says "Waiting for the site to process the upload". When I check the tree on the web, all the new persons are there but NO added pictures.
