Without seeing the file you are trying to load it is difficult to say. Are you sure that you are trying to upload the gedcom created by PAF, and not the PAF program itself? |

Thanks for your info. I have exported the PAF onto my computer & it definitely says it is a GEDCOM file. Each time I try to upload it from my computer to Genes, Genes tries to import and always comes up with "Sorry there has been an unexpected error" Any further help would be appreciated. |

I don't use PAF but it should have an export option, probably under File then Export. Export format should a gedcom v 5.5 and save to you computer. |

I use the Mormons free PAF files for my Family History. Is it possible to export from PAF to Genes? Not been successful & it is taking too long to keep separate files going. |
