Paul, Your last sentence, it would appear, is something of the understatement of the day. My memory truthfully is not what it used to be, but I've gotten the same answer that you got for well over a year now, maybe 18 months or even more, but not much we can do about it I guess. David E.

I just have one more question, and then I promise to drop the questions about Family Search. When I was chatting with the lady at Family Search today, her "test" was to see if I could get in to the Family Tree (I'm not a member of the LDS church). I could get into the Family Tree with my "old" login to the old Family Search site. My question for RootsMagic: I have been using another person's login to access the new.family.search.org. How do I "un do" the other person's login information from the program (version 5) so I can test my own login, in case it actually is working? Thank you, Brenda

Drew, I understand your impatience with this thread. You can ignore it. If you don't know how to make a filter I could walk you through it. But the fact that SO many of us have waited for years to get into the new FamilySearch IS important to US and an unrealized option of Roots Magic. Perhaps it isn't an issue to you. Do you already have access?

Yea, I was going to say a year and a half, but truthfully, I couldn't really remember so I just backed it off a bit. While on the one hand the LDS is giving us a free service, their process sucks totally. On Sun, Oct 14, 2012 at 4:49 PM, David E.

From RootsMagic's main screen, click File, then FamilySearch Central. In the "Tasks to Do" section, click Log in to FamilySearch.

Ludlow Bay, As noted previously, I have already done that, and cannot connect to family search from RM. I am looking for a way of doing it, but it appears there is none, despite folks telling me here that there is. That is the problem, it appears, we are "talking about apples and oranges." Your last line is incorrect though, because I CANNOT connect to FS (old or new) using "File/Family Search Central" but I can connect to "old" only using a stand-alone URL. I have submitted another query to FS Support for whatever good it might do, but I've been told for a year or two now to "be patient and wait," but I am afraid that patience is not my most notable trait.

I did an online "chat" this afternoon with Family Search to see if there was any possibility that I could get my sign in to familysearch.org "updated" so that it would work with the new.familysearch.org. The bottom line is that the lady who was helping me told me to see if I could log onto the old familysearch.org. I was able to get logged in. Then the lady asked me if I could get onto the Family Tree. I did not know what Family Tree is. She told me to go to HELP and search for ACCESS FAMILY TREE. I finally found a link to Family Tree. I was able to get right onto Family Tree with no further login needed. If I understood her correctly, the new FamilySearch will be migrated to Family Tree during October. I then asked her if that meant that I could access the database with RootsMagic after the migration happened. She checked her RootsMagic and said she could log directly into the Family Tree with it. When I asked her again if I would be able to access the database with RootsMagic (again) she said that would be something I would need to ask RootsMagic or whatever third party software I was using.

If we have used a login that belongs to someone else on the new.familysearch.org, is there a way to get that login id out of RootsMagic, so we can see if our login to the old familysearch.org will work for the new Family Tree? Brenda
