Hello, i use Myheritage only with generated GEDCOMs.
Now family-members make changes online, i make changes in my AncestryDB (Ages! (Version 1.52)). Now i have newer information (not included in the first Tree). I upload my newest GEDCOM to my site. How i can match the first with the second tree?
I have tried many ways to print out a completed family tree but have been unable to get the tree to print on just several pages of paper. It ends up 15 pages long.
You are lucky it is just 15 pages--Mine says that it will be 6000 pages if I were to print it.

Para los que esten interesados en crecer con "MY Heritage" el programa es bueno,pero para ser mejor falta mejorar los campos de la base de datos y aumentar las opciones en el menu. Le he escrito hasta el presidente de esta organizacion,pero no contestan. No entiendo como quieren tener exito. para los que como yo pasamos de 15.000 parientes no nos queda mas que apoyarnos en programas para archivos GEDCOM para tener reportes mas completos.Si piensan que existen programas que nos permitan mejorar, informenos por esta via.
I have some smart matches that I believe are correct. So, I'd like to connect those individuals to another persons tree. Can I do this? If not, why even have the smart matches.....especially online......the whole point is to be able to SHARE the information.
I paid for a one year Premium last night 23/03/2009 because I was (and I do mean was) impressed by your software. So I paid for the Premium for one reason and one reason only to view the Smart research 953 HIGH QUALITY RESULTS not to mention the 11978 LOW QUALITY RESULTS. Needless to say not one of these results has even a passing resemblance to my family tree. So I see this as obtaining money by deception witch as far as I am aware is fraud. So I demand a full refund
I'm having problems with the Smart Research tool as well. It goes slowly and has a tendency to freeze up, even though I have a computer with more than adequate specs. Also, it found no matches for most of my relatives, and those it did find were way off. This happens even for the relatives in my tree with first and last names, and birth and death dates.
Brian I don't know why you have problems but I have been able to extend my tree into France, England, Scotland, Tunisia as well as throughout the US and Canada especially Quebec. Go to the help sources and they will assist you.

I agree! Today, as many times before, I recieved about 30 "smart" matches that had absolutely no comparence to the names in my family tree. For instance I was told that "Erik Lundin" was a smart match for "Lars Andreasson". Even if one is not familiar with the language ,everbody can see that there is not even one letter in the same place in these two names. I don´t understand how this matching technique works!
Yes my problem is with Smart Matching. I don´t know what else information I can send you.

My question still is: How can your program suggest that Erik Lundin is a smart match for Lars Andreasson?
Are you having this problem in Family Tree Builder?
If so - go the Tools > Options > Smart Matching menu.
In this menu you will be able to change the 'Match similar last names' settings to be less liberal and more strict. This should make the results you are getting more accurate.
In the near future, we are planning to release a feature that will allow you more control over the Smart Matching preferences.
If you are still experiencing this problem after the change of settings, please let me know at noam@myheritage.com.
I'm having huge problems with the Smart matching too. Working properly, it would be an immensly valuable tool, but as it is I recieve emails every week that several people in my family tree have been matched with up to a thousand(!!) other random people, with no common denominator whatsoever... (the screenshot of Per Larsson and Anders Jacobsen is only one example). Changing the settings for the Smart Matcher does not seem to have any effect at all (it even seems to change back on it's own). This is turning into a major annoyance for me! My tree contains more than 500 people and is growing steadily. If the Smart Matching tool worked properly I would seriously concider upgrading to premium, but as it is now I have no reason to believe this is worth the money.
I am also wondering wether changes in the Display-options in the Tools-menu should be permanent? I keep making changes to the way my tree should be displayed (show age, for example), but every time I open the program it is back to the original settings...
I have a new computer and want to transfer all my months of hard work over to the new one. I downloaded a new family tree builder and transfered my tree over but it dosen't have the smart matches. I tried to run the smart match on the whole tree but nothing happened. please help me. I have a premium account on the site. thanks Pat
Comienza con los apellidos de tus padres,abuelos,bisabuelos,tatarabuelos y luego
busca en internet en diferentes sitios de arboles geneologicos apellidos que sean iguales a los de tu familia y trata de empatar con alguno de ellos, al principio es dificil
como todo en la vida,luego en 2 o 3 meses tendras los resultados.
sorry for being a bit stupid but why does this sites smart matching match my relatives with people born 250 years later or born on different continents who i know for a fact have absolutely nothing to do with my tree . i have not had one smartmatch that actually matches a george ball b. notts 1779 from about 60 smartmatches.all i am saying is this site site doesnt need to send a match unless it actually matches with a specific search criteria
The criteria for smart matching is user adjustable................have you tried changing the settings so that the less relevant entries are filtered out? Bruce
