1) Open your MyHeritage account.
2) Roll your mouse over the "Family Tree" menu item and see the dropdown menu options:
3) Click on the >Manage trees" option:
4) For each of your family trees, there are five Actions on the right-hand side of the screen. One of them is "Export to GEDCOM."
5) Click on "Export to GEDCOM" and a check list opens for you to choose what you want in the GEDCOM file:
6) Click on the orange button to "Begin the Export."
7) The export should start and when it's done, you should receive an email from MyHeritage with a link to view it.
8) In the email, click the link and the GEDCOM file should download to your computer. Mine downloaded to my Downloads file folder in Windows 7. You should rename the file to something you can recall with a .ged file extension and move it to a file folder on your computer where you can access it.
That's it - easy peasy!! Once you know the secret sauce, of course [I had to use the "Help" link at the bottom of the home page screen].
