Both the trees that I want to merge are already in my heritage. I have no idea how it got split up but I want to merge them together. I've already got alot of pictures and documents. I don't want to delete the trees and start over, because then I will lose everything I've already done.
The link you provide is for FTB. The question is about Family Site. Saying it twice does not make it any clearer. Reading the link twice does not answer the question.
As far as I can tell, you cannot merge the two automatically without loosing all of your pictures and documents. You would have to re-enter all of the information from one into the other. You can merge the gedcom files if you have FTB and then re-load then re-do the photos etc.
My Paternal Grandpa's sister, married my Paternal Grandma's brother, how do I get the family tree to do this complex relationship without having to create entirely new repeat ancestors.
Please tell me the way in a detailed description of how to correct this please.
Why do some photos uploaded to the online album turn out black? I uploaded them from my local drive. They are jpgs of various sizes. I even uploded them one at a time. I tried uploading them a few times with the same result.
Please try changing the size of those photos, and see if that helps. Sometime photos that are uploaded may not appear if they are either too large, or too small.
If you continue to have problems with this, please write to me at esther@myheritage.com.
On my MyHeritage site: in Family Tree->Reports->Places
I see a table of 4 columns with header Place 1, Place 2, Place 3, Place 4. But only the fourth column is filled with city names and the other columns are empty?
- why are there 4 columns of places (how is place 1 different from place 2)
I have come across a relation in my tree, where the respective siblings of a married couple are also married.
For instance: Person A is married to B. C is the sister of A. D is the brother of B. C and D are also married. In my family tree. I've added the first marriage, and their respective siblings, but I haven't been able to figure out how to connect the two (C and D) in marriage. It seems to me that the only way to add a marriage connection is through the "add a partner"-button, which adds an entire new person.
How do I go about to achieve this mapping? Is it only possible in the downloadable software? Going back just a few generations, constellations like these are not entirely uncommon, so I hope there's a solution to building trees like this.
I understand very well your problem 'cause I've got the same thing in my family. I think you cannot do it on myHeritage, but you can do it very easily in Family Tree builder (get it free from my heritage).. So you 're working with GEDCOM files, After that, you send it again in myHeritage and your problem is solved! I know it's complicated..
Hi, any news on when this functionality will be available on the online Family Site?
I know that it is available with FTB, but one of the main reason I use the Family Site instead is the concept of community and that several members of our family can add new people and update the information. I would lose all that if I "go back" to FTB installed in a PC with just one administrator.
I had a family tree for my family, Edmons. I joined my daughters tree, Coon, and now I cannot view or see my Edmons tree. When I log in it says welcome to the Coon tree, and it says my daughter is the site administrator. What happened with my tree the Edmons one that I was the site administorator for and how do I get it back?
I even cleared cookies from my computer, and tried the button to view the different trees and only the Coon one is showing. I had alot of work put into my tree.
If you do not remember the address of your family site, then please go into Community and you can search by the name of your family site for that particular site.
If you are still having difficulty finding your site, please write to me at esther@myheritage.com, and we will find it together!
The arrows showing the relationship between two people is shifted one step when the relationship involves different mothers. It doesn't happen when the mother is the same. For example: the relationship between X and Y.
A is the father of X
B is the father of A
C is a son of B
D is a son of C
Y is the wife of D
ie, A and C have the same father B but different mothers. There is an extra arrow 3 with no annotation from C to B. Arrows to X from A and B are correct. Arrows to B are shifted one step so there is an arrow from nowhere to Y.
Note that the relationship statement at the bottom is correct. I hope that is clear.
Cheers
When A and C have the same mother and father then A and C are shown as siblings of each other, ie B is not involved and the diagram is correct.
