Ron, Okay, I just found what you are referring to, but it has nothing to do with the connection from RM to "new" Family Search found at "File/Family Search Central." Following the displayed prompts, mine will not recognize my valid log-in for familysearch.org. :-( David E.

Where is it, or at least where is it supposed to be? I've now got several people telling me that it can be done, but my account (with "old" Family Search) says otherwise and will not accept a log in from RM5. :-( David E.

There is a drop down list of where you want to search. Family Search is one of the web sites available for searching. When I click on "search Family Search", I am presented with potential matches. If I want to explore those matches, I do have to log in to the Family Search site. If you do not have valid log in credentials, you will need to register. You will receive your log in information, however, if you are not LDS, you may have to join those who are waiting for their log in credentials to be activated. Family Search is granting access to the site gradually as they continue to work out issues. Eventually everyone will have access, but currently not all do. Whether or not you have access to the web site has no bearing on whether RootsMagic 5 can connect to the site or not. It can and it does. Ron Bernier Woonsocket, RI On 10/14/2012 3:46 PM, David E.
