    Relinking multimedia for Sources

    I have got myself in a jam(b). I think that I need to repair the links to the multimedia for my sources much the same I I can relink/rebuild multimedia in general. I cannot figure out how to do this. Does anyone know? Thanks.

    Re: Relinking multimedia for Sources

    I have the same (or similar) problem.

    I am switching from FTM3 (Mac) to Reunion.

    The media files that were linked to people are fine.

    But the media files that were linked to sources are missing (and repair multimedia links does not seem to find them). In FTM you can store as a media file a jpg of the relevant census page (for example, to support an 1850 Residence Event/Tag). But, I can't seem to view those files anywhere in Reunion, even though the census jpg's are in the same directory as the person's photos (which I can view in Reunion).

    Any help would be appreciated.

      I believe to re-link your multimedia files you need to open;
      Reunion>preferences>Multimedia and add your locations of where your files are stored;
      and then select "Repair m/media links" at the bottom of the window.

        Thanks Alan for responding. I did do what you suggested above, and it did link the "photos" of my people, but it did not link the "pictures" of my sources (e.g., census images). So my problem remains.

          Did you figure this out?
