I made a typo and didn't catch it in time, how can I correct it?

Mirevo

Can you please give us more details on the typo.

Were you indexing, or reviewing- can you provide us the batch code.

Have you submitted the batch already?

Hopefully it can be fixed by somebody else.

I have the same problem. Was this question ever answered? Common issues like this should be in the FAQ section.

To clarify, I'm referring to a typo I made in Tree I've started. It's difficult for me to edit the Tree and correct errors I've made, or to update/add info I've found later. I can't find an FAQ on that subject.

I put Sr on my sons name and it should have been Jr. I also forgot to put his birthday. How can I correct this. I also know some other info about each that I added but can figure out how to add it now.

just go to the PERSON page - and look for the EDIT button - and make your corrections.

The best place to edit all information is on a person's detail page. (Don't try to edit on a pedigree chart.) Next to every bit of information is an Edit button. Just click it:

If you are working in the mobile app, tap with your finger directly on the information you want to edit:

To come to the information's detail page then click the Edit link you see there:
