Questions about Certificates

I have seen a number of questions about capturing information from official Certificates. Here is an example of what I capture from a Death Certificate.

Hi Cousin Russ.

Hi Cousin Russ...I have a FTM2014 question. I am using the windows version. I believe I have heard you say before that you use the task list to keep track of your to do's. If you sync your FTM file to Ancestry.com and them have to download that tree back down to FTM a at some point, does the task list come back with it? I dint want to lose my to do's if for some reason I have to restore my FTM file from my Ancestry.com tree. Thank you!

I attempted my FTM2014 when the following was displayed: An unfixable "Missing FTM Data error" occurred while analyzing online changes. Unfortunately, you will need to unlink and relink your tree. When I clicked for online help I see that if I unlink and relink all info will not be available on the o;d tree. How does that affect my DNA portion of the tree? Should I unlink?
