SYNC OUTAGE - UPDATED June 1
There are ongoing interruptions in Ancestry connectivity, and we continue to advise everyone to avoid syncing, uploading and downloading until we have confirmed that the connection with Ancestry is stable. Ancestry has been performing maintenance that can impact features such as sync – click here for more information. Even though the maintenance was expected to have concluded on May 31, we are in communication with Ancestry and they assure us that work is ongoing and a high priority.
As a best practice, we recommend that you make frequent backups of your tree. If you have an urgent need and must sync with Ancestry, make sure to create a fresh backup first. For help, click here for Windows, or click here for Mac.
