Hopefully one of the founts of knowledge on ReunionTalk (Bob White, theKiwi,..) can help me here. A little off topic, but I know you guys can probably help. Some months ago I exported my Reunion family tree GEDCOM into FTM - and from FTM into Ancestry. The tree was imported successfully into FTM and into Ancestry. What I want to do, and don't know if it is possible, is to see my multimedia linked to my various sources in Reunion show up in FTM and Ancestry also linked to the same sources.
As far as I can tell, the multimedia that was linked to my Reunion sources was imported into FTM and in to Ancestry, but not linked to my sources. The multimedia that I put on each person's photo place in Reunion transferred successfully as multimedia linked to that person in both FTM and Ancestry, but the multimedia linked to my sources was just sort of dumped into a large multimedia bucket - most apparent on FTM. In Ancestry, each source shows up just fine - but not a hint of the multimedia associated with the source
Short of going back into each of my thousands of sources and pulling multimedia from them and placing, one at a time, each person's multimedia into the portrait place in Reunion family view is there any way to cause my Sources multimedia to be linked to the appropriate person in FTM and Ancestry? A very unpleasant prospect.
