I hate the new Family Search. I still rely on the Beta format they have and the plain old search that lets you get into each batch, etc. If it wasn't broke, why try to "fix" things?

Emily,
When you go to the LDS Website *don't try to sign in *just follow the order
I sent. I got in without signing in. Also note that there may be a few
bugs they are dealing with right now with new computers. I don't have a lot
of knowledge about computers so I can't help there. I would suggest you
keep trying several times a day and a few more days. I believe once they
work out all the bugs you should have no problems *just don't try signing
in.

Rachel Ruiz Emily Esther and everybody
Thank you Jaime, Ester and Welester for taking the time to respond. I can
access it now. Like Emily, I cannot locate a way to access the batch lists
via the new website, so rely on the old one for that. I have emailed
Arturo Cuellar on that question and will post his response.
For Rachel Ruiz
Hi Esther and all,
Are there plans to allow the selection of gender when researching a name on the new and improved version? On the pilot version it helps bring down the thousands of results to a more manageable number. It seems like a reasonable request to me, but then I am not computer savvy. Thank you, Alice

I had an uncle (just passed away recently) who could never get *church
records *changed to reflect that *he* was not a *she*. He was listed as
Patricia. He finally gave up and changed his name to Salvador.
Good luck!

You're absolutely right. However, when I see literally thousands of results it overwhelms me and I'd rather go through the "correct" gender first, and then if I don't have success, I tackle the rest.
