I'm sorry however currently we do not have a report that shows which of the photos was not published. However, I hope that we will be able to add this in the future.
Here are the formats that can be uploaded to the site, so you may be able to locate the photo that has a different format:
.jpg, .jpeg, .jpe, .gif, .png, .bmp, .psd, .tif, and .tiff.
I've just signed up for an premium annual subscription. So far all my searches take me to Ancestry.com which I am already a member of. Is this the extent of search capabilities of MyHeritage? To be honest I feel a bit duped.
MyHeritage Super Search is made up of many "Collections". A collection is any one group of records. A collection may be a group of records that is available on other websites as well, like the 1940 census, Military records, or newspaper archives.
Sinceyou have a Premium family site subscription you will be able to search for family sites and MyHeritage members without having to buy an extra subscription.
If you want to view other collections on the Super Search, you will have to buy an annual data subscription or buy credits.
It's basically a search engine just scoping the internet. Often the results pick up Ancestry.com because it's so big, but it might find other things too. It's like when you do a google search on a subject and the most common result is wikipedia.
Is it april fool, or MyHeritage is really getting so greedy? I've found out, that every searching is now unusable even for Premium users, because it returns only links to another subscriptions. I've paid for Premium in good faith that I will use even search feature. Now I have to pay again for that. On what else are you going to impose a charge? What will be next, fee for every mail? :-/
Sorry for that, but I am disillusioned. I thought, you are enthusiast for genealogy, not gold miners :-/
I am also a premium user. I am very annoyed and disappointed by this new 'feature.' I do not feel "welcomed" to Smart Search. It's 'smart' in a capitalist sense but not in other ways. MyHeritage has been a refeshing alternative to Ancestry.com up until now.
They appear to be mimicking each other in tedious, unpleasant ways. Ancestry now offers "HINTS" (Smart Matches), but everything has a price--even access to another member's trees. Now MyHeritage is returning the favor. *SIGH* I would rather be able to see other MyHeritage member's content without paying for it--Hey, I'm already paying for it, ain't I? --And have the option to pay for content from other sources--not via a blanket subscription on top of my subscription.

I just joined the premium group hoping to search my ancestery for 75 dollars a year, and soon as I find something in the name search and click it takes me to anothere data charge me again site for the information , I agree with your statement , and want a refund now.
As I wrote below to answer another user, some of the the historical data you can find on your search, comes from partners that require royalties on its use by customers, other data from external resources is available for free.
We do our best to give as much free data as possible to our users, therefore if you are logged in with your Premium or PremiumPlus subscription, you can see all MyHeritage.com collections for free. This includes millions of pictures and data contained at Myheritage.com trees.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We highly appreciate these types of dialogues with our users since they are important to our growth.
Please feel free to contact us directly to: support@myheritage.com for further comments or questions.
If you read the whole thread carefully, you would clearly see, that several people cannot search MyHeritage.com collections even as logged on their Premium site. Me included. I don't understand, why are you permanently ignoring this FACT. We all are logged as Premium, and cannot search in - as you said - free MyHeritage collections (MyHeritage sites, MyHeritage users, people in MyHeritage trees). I wrote to the support several days before (screenshots added to the mail), but no answer yet.
There seems to be a bug, on a small group of users including yourself, which does not let the user to see MyHeritage.com collections from his Premium family site. Thank you so much for reporting this problem. Thanks to you we have discovered this error. We are working now to fix this, and we will keep you posted about any advances.
There is a small correction on what I posted before, that I would like to share: I have been informed that MyHeritage.com photos and trees collection is only available for free for Premium Plus users. MyHeritage members and Sites collections will be open for free for Premium as well. My apologize for the mistake.
Thanks again for your post. Please do not hesitate to contact us for further comments or questions.
This "bug" obvious still exists and I must say that I am embarassed to have fallen for it as well. I cannot search for others' trees and profiles, which is, to be blunt, the ONLY reason I am interested in MyHeritage -- Geni.com does quite nicely with all of the other features.
If this "bug" cannot be fixed, then please give me a full refund. I did not just pay $75 so that I could be asked to pay even more to a website that is using unethical adveritising practices.
I too have encountered this "bug". Every time I ask for the results of a search I'm asked for more money. A very fortuitous bug for my heritage. The only thing I have been able to do with my premium account is confirm other users matches. I'm sorry to say, not really worth all the money I paid in good faith.
Please note that if you search for information on the Super Search while you are logged in with your Premium or PremiumPlus subscription, you can see all MyHeritage.com collections for free. This includes millions of pictures and data contained at Myheritage.com trees.
There are also millions of records coming from external resources and myheritage.com affiliates that you can see by purchasing a data subsription or credits plan. Please note that it is not possible for us to offer the historical data of all external resources for free since some of the historical data comes from partners that require royalties on its use by customers. We do our best to give as much free data as possible, but we also need to consider the business aspect.
Hope this clarifies. Please contact me for further comments or questions.
Best regards,

Hey, do you see me? Why are you ignoring all my questions?? I think, I was holding myself back and did not use any vulgar word, and believe me, it was quite hard, because I hate this behaviour, that MyHeritage is demonstarting.
I've posted screenshot, where is clearly seen, that I am logged on my Premium page, but it still does not work for me! I cannot see any result, all MyHeritage webs included. ALL links from SuperSearch show only linked result that you want another money from me.
I too am experiencing problems with research. Response to my queries is slow to non existant.
I am also a PremiumPlus member having paid up until December 2013 !
I can no longer search for UK based ancestors as this new research thing only seeems to provide results from other MyHeritage members or from US bases.
I have threatened to withdraw membership, but even that does not evoke a response from MyHeritage !
Hi, could I get response too? Note, that on subscription plan page you say "MyHeritage.com Research - our genealogy search engine, is free.", but it is obviously not true. At least for all free users and even for some Premium and PremiumPlus users.
The program searches the internet for sites which may have genealogical information. Some of these sites may be pay sites. That has nothing to do with MH being greedy.
No. I am not talking about program and searching on other sites! I am unable to search MyHeritage sites on MyHeritage web, not only foreign sites! The only search that is working now is searching on my own MyHeritage web, I cannot search for other webs on MyHeritage, for other MyHeritage users, etc. as I could e.g. month ago. Everything is now hidden under "Research" section, which gives only unusable results (links to subscription page) instead of showing links to MyHeritage web pages, that satisfy my query. Or where else is hidden this great functionality now? It is still presented as free service on help pages, but this seems to be lie now.
Some other Premium users I asked today told me, that it works for them. So hopefully really some strange bug. For my Premium site, every click on every result shows only this - http://img24.eu/images/ha21iup6.png
My site is mentioned there, so it proves, that I am really logged on my Premium site.
I have looked at the research function a few times and got a little useful information once. But it takes SO long to trawl through so much useless information! Is it possible to narrow one's requests? I think the technical term would be, to use filters.
I am in Australia and so is the area of all my research, except for old-time stuff like ancestors living in England and coming to Australia around the time of the sailing ships or somewhat later. And when I run a research search under the name of someone on my tree I get divorces in England; British officers in India; census results in America.
I don't want ANY of that! So can I please have research that limits itself to a defined category and place and period of time. Births, deaths, divorces, and marriages (etc.), Australia, 1900 to 2000, say. Census details, Australia, various years and areas. And there would be some others.It is just not worth spending the time and effort looking through massive amounts of data that cannot be relevant.
