Re: Orange or Red Weather alerts for the past 10 days
I haven't been online to use my FTM for sometime and have not been able to use it now for a few days - what is this red and orange weather alert phase - everyone is commenting about - I see nothing in...

I agree, and that's certainly the safest - perhaps I'm being unwise in syncing. But the way I work in both Ancestry and FTM makes it very frustrating if I don't.Unfortunately I think the only way to be...

"I see nothing in the bar"In FTM2017, on the Sync toolbar icon on the top right corner, you should see a little connection status "flash" - either green, orange or red (although you can turn it off in...

I am using FTM 2017. I would like to generate a report showing all the individuals in my tree from a specific generation. For example, all my 4th great grandparents.I haven't figured a way to do this....

This doesn't actually limit the report to just those individuals. But you could run a Kinship report for all individuals and Sort by Kinship.

Well, it looks like Ancestry have solved the ORANGE sync alert problem in FTM - it's now permanently RED for me :-(
View ArticleRe: Orange or Red Weather alerts for the past 10 days
Yes, it seems to be permanently red for me as well! I have been doing quite a bit of work, adding the 1939 register entries on my Ancestry tree, so didn't want to risk a sync when the orange was showing.
View ArticleRe: Orange or Red Weather alerts for the past 10 days
My experience was that if I managed to "get in" on an orange, the sync completed OK regardless, even if the toolbar had turned red during the sync. I think the red is simply a "gate" that's closed to...
