My computer crashed and I seem to have lost most of my Geni.com tree. Is there any way to recover it?
I am a pro-user. My "family ties deluxe 6" used to be able to accept the gedcom file I exported from geni. But now I can not import the gedcom file I export from geni.com to the same "family ties deluxe 6". What am I missing?
There were several that the volume did not work.
i dont have the same page lay out. i had to click on the 'family tree' drop down and then click on 'share your tree'
I didn't realize this was so easy. Thanks
Thank you!
