Re: Adding Media files.
How are you adding the media files? You should be attaching them as media to the various facts and not to the individual. See this article in the knowledgebase Getting Started You may be better off using Ancestral Sources to enter these type of facts.

On my Mac I backup to a folder on the C drive like the settings path that you have rather than to a \\Mac drive. It works fine for me. May be worth changing your backup location to reflect a Windows file location.

There are ways to install Win 11 on to unsupported hardware. A quick search turns up several ways to do it.

Re: What is a permanent record number?
Thanks. I had found those and was confused. Guess I’ll add permanent record number to the list of unknowns and move on. Unless, you know of a good reason to use them. One online resource suggested they were used by Family Search/LDS. The permanent record number defined in Gedcom and use of a unique...

Just FYI it installs and runs fine under Crossover on a Mac. Found a whole series of pages that I had forgotten to attach to a source. Thanks for writing it.

Have a look at this post on the forum viewtopic.php?p=143081#p143081
I posted a query that will do what you want so just save the output as a CSV for your Excel editing.

Unfortunately it does not work on Crossover on a Mac. It installs fine. On running it just closes FH.
Just FYI as the Mac and Crossover are not run of the mill for FH.

Re: importing gedcom + media from MyHeritage
Others may come up with an alternative way. Open a copy of your Gedcom file in Notepad++ and use its search and replace function to look for the title and delete the characters at the beginning and then repeat with the characters at the end. Open that gedcom in FH and make sure everything is ok. If ...

Re: GEDexplorer
It comes up for me in the App Store as 'Not available in your region'. This sometimes means that the author does not wish to comply with GDPR and so does not make it available outside the US. If that is the case with this app I would look at one of the alternatives.

Re: Changing linked media addresses in bulk
If you are going to try editing the gedcom directly then take a look at the free Notepad++ it has a gedcom addon which you may find useful. It has extensive search and replace options. IMHO it is easier to use than VBA in Excel.
