Well, the link between my computer tree and AMT tree has disappeared. Simple solution is to re-upload my computer (FTM) tree, but then I have to re-invite all of the family members to view the new tree. Second option is to keep the tree on Ancestry.com, and download from there to create a new tree on my computer. Since the two files are very close together in the data in each, my only danger here is the differences in downloaded trees. I know I would lose Tasks, but what else might I lose? John & Kathleen

You will lose all file names for your media items. Additionally, unless you have Captions assigned to all of your AMT media images, the new file names will be generic numbered files. If any of your media file types are HTML or MTHL, you will lose them. They were probably uploaded as RTF file types. Any media items linked to relationships or shared between husband/wife, will be lost. Instead the image will be downloaded and linked to the two individuals but as individual links. Any media items linked to sources (source titles) will be lost. Any Notes linked to facts, Source-citations, Sources and Media items will be lost. When I've downloaded a tree from an AMT, I have not been satisfied with the resultant PC file. So my preference is to maintain my data in the PC file and upload to the AMT. I suggest you download the AMT file and then look at it to see which you prefer.
