New Beginner still learning the soft ware

Hello everyone
I have just bought Roots Magic 9
I installed it onto my Computer yesterday so I am still playing around learning the basics

I do have a couple of questions I would love someone to help me.

For several years I used another Family software but switch .

I downloaded my Family tree from Ancestry into a GEDCOM file and created it onto Roots Magic 9

Can I just Sync both trees without downloading each time (Is there a simple way)

On RM a red circle comes up on my tree under family names indicating to me a problem alert with my entry
IE Death after burial ect
In details column it gives me several different marriage dates and different places.

what does this all mean please ?

Thank you for reading my message
I am a very old silver surfer but will to learn new things

The red icon is a problem alert. You can learn more about it here - Problem search

With Ancestry you would want to skip the GEDCOM download and do a direct import using Ancestry TreeShare in RM. You can learn more about it here - https://help.rootsmagic.com/RM9/ancestry-treeshare.html
