Thank you all for your help. I used my lap top in the Center in April and was able to work with my FTM program. I had never tried to use the internet and now I know it is not available.  I would like to find  the best way to ' lighten' the load while I am traveling instead of having to carry my lap top. I intend to install FTM 2012 again and persevere until I master it and eventually have it on Ancestry so I can access it from any computer. Now I think I can do that then down load an ap from Ancestry and access without the internet connection.???  I would then buy a notebook.  Can anyone tell me if I have this right.?? Thanks everyone for your patience and help.! Take Care Margaret Ontario

Hi Margaret FTM 2014 or 2012 can synch Ancestry with your home computer So any changes made on either will be synch'ed on the other The Ancestry app would require internet access to communicate with your tree on Ancestry Unless you have FTM on your notebook or laptop you would need internet access Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 01/01/2014 22:02, Margaret McNab wrote: > Thank you all for your help.
