I have Legacy Family Tree software on two different laptops: home and travel. I successfully transferred all data and pictures from home computer to Families on my Nook tablet using Families Sync.
Can I use Families to sync my travel computer with the goal of adding the pictures that did not originally transfer because they have links to files in My Documents rather than C:Legacy/Pictures?

I think it would be better to use DropBox to sync your two laptops, then you'd be able to transfer family files and photos from either of these machines to Families. Use of DropBox for this purpose has been discussed extensively on the Legacy User Group.
