Hi All, I followed Tom's suggestion and unchecked all the boxes for the media files I had for my ancestors. I then replaced the file on my iPad and I still have the pictures of the documents as photos next to each person's name in the pedigree view I don't want to have to delete all the media that I have collected and attached to my ancestors but this is annoying. Are there any other suggestions? If not, I will call tech support to see if they can help.

You somehow have them linked to persons in pedigree. go to the person's edit view and click media to see the media there Look at the tags that tag the docs. Use the EDIT TAG and uncheck the primary box. Note Reload your view you had trouble with. If docs still show up Go back and repeat the instructions for any person where the doc is showing up on the pedigree chart. You need to note any person with the docs while in pedigree view. Time consuming I know, but it should work. If it doesn't then they are linked as primary in another location, Which I don't know. Jon On 6/20/16, M. A.
