David, there is no reason why you cannot download other browsers and use them when you need to. You can still keep IE8 as your default. |

and the other browsers, such as Firefox or Chrome, are free ........ so it doesn't cost you anything. |

I agree-I was reluctant to change from using IE8 which works alright on other sites,but after trying Google Chrome and Firefox I have to admit this site works better with them I still have IE as my default |

Hi everyone, for those of you who are having problems with the speed of the tree, it would really help us if we had more detail. What I'd like to know is which part exactly is slow? Is it adding a relation, is it saving a name? Is it moving from one name to another? I'd also like to know what operating system and browser you are using. We need to try and establish a pattern. Maybe it only affects users with a certain browser, or it might always happen on the same part of the tree. |

I have IE, and the tree has quickened up a lot in recent weeks. However, it's not so much which action is slow; it's that the whole process has slowed, because it's all so much more (and unnecessarily) long-winded. For example, I want to check the details I have on a particular individual. I click on that person, and the process is (1) mini 'grid' appears beneath that person (2) bars come up, denoting downloading relationships and position, so hiding that part of the tree (3) the individual re-appears, THEN I can access the details. We didn't have this before - we found the person, and there were ALL of their details, instantly! What's even more annoying, we only get to see a minute portion of those details at a time, the view of that part of the tree is obliterated unless we hide the details, AND the family links, other than the immediate ones, disappear! We aren't now able to quickly scroll from tree to an individual's details and back again. Trying to look at the whole family tree, moving the tree is jerky, and lines/links keep disappearing. I'm sorry, but it's rubbish now, compared to the previous tree. I'd actually go as far as to say it's not fit for purpose, which is why I'm moving all of mine to another site. |

I have not used Genes reunited for a few years and only recently got into the family research again recently. I was very disappointed to find the lay out of the tree has changed drastically. |

I would like to be able to see in Full / Ancestor / Descendant / List mode my tree and trees shared with me that have > 3 000 people. That has been impossible since the advent of KeepSafe. "Support" thank me for my "patience" and have passed the matter to "the development". |

Like most apparently, I do not like the new tree, please give us back the old one. Had nothing but problems, have cleared history, cookies, run maintenance checks, done everything I can think of but it will not let me see another members full tree. The layout is awful and it is not user friendly any more, it's awful. Please give us back the old version :-( |

I think many members with problems, would find it helpful if they checked the FAQs section and Phil's Blog before commenting on here. |

I do not like the new tree, it is too complicated, and for people who are doing a family tree, and are not computer whizz kids, it is extremely difficult to understand all the in formation given out by helpful people. All i request is that the tree actually works properly. |

Sue, I think you will find that most sites develop and update their trees from time to time. Ancestry have just done some work on theirs. |
