I think this is related to your FTM import problems: JIT problem with FH and AS (12277).

Until they are fixed, and the GEDCOM is completely valid, you may have various problems with Plugins.

This Plugin problem may be related to the OBJE error reported in JIT problem with FH and AS (12277).

But it may also be caused by missing last Updated date/times.
In FH open the Records Window and review each tab: Individuals, Notes, Sources, etc.
Are there any date/times listed in the Updated column?
If not, then your FTM exported GEDCOM has no last Updated date/times.
Is there an option in the FTM GEDCOM export to include last Changed/Updated date/times?
Alternatively, run the attached Plugin to set all missing last Updated date/times to today.

One final point on the Export Gedcom File settings: I think TMG needs UTF-8 format with Byte Order Mark (BOM).

[ ATTACHMENT deleted as now in Plugin Store as Set Missing Updated Timestamps V1.0 ]

Mike, Thank you!

Let me follow all your suggestions and get my info together for a good response.
