"Technical Error" Message

Francis Gill

Why does there continue to be a "technical error" message in the library catalog? It is possible to get down to the county level with the list of record items for that county (i.e., land records, probate records, vital records, etc.) but when any of these records are clicked on, the error message comes up and we are not allowed to work with the list of microfilms. After refreshing over and over again, I can sometimes get in. It is very time consuming to continue to refresh the page or come back some other time and have the same thing happen.

Please advise of the reason or the time frame in fixing the problem.

Thank you.

@ Carolyn Robinson_7 The message you are seeing comes when you exceed download limits built into FamilySearch. Here is a Help Center article that explains the messages that can be seen when you try to download more than the system allows:
