Great news! FamilyTreeDNA is now using the MyHeritage tree platform. You can easily transfer your existing FamilyTreeDNA tree, create a new tree, or link to your existing MyHeritage tree. Each option has benefits. A handy decision guide is included in the syllabus. This webinar provides step-by-step instructions on both platforms, plus a problem-solving section, aka, “things I wish I had known…sooner.” We close with a 10-point summary.

Roberta mentioned in the webinar that you need to count your linked FTDNA matches and make a list of them. I found that there's an easier way to do that. On the Tree Management tab at FTDNA, you get an overview showing how many people the tree contains, and how many are linked. You can also download a .csv-file with those linked matches so you don't need to list them manually.
Thank you Roberta! I connected my tree to the one I have at My Heritage as soon as it became available. I had only one glitch, with my late Aunt’s kit. Hopefully it will be resolved soon. Otherwise, all my other kits transferred easily.
