Thx for the tip on changing the font size in the register. That worked. Now if I could change the account list font size and other parts of the page! The Windows font is set at 250%

Hi Nate. I appreciate you making these videos. I've been considering Quicken, and your videos are helping me decide. However, I have a few questions I was hoping you could answer. It looks like you are able to name your own payees, is that accurate? Are you able to categorize the expenses yourself? Can you create some of your own expense categories? Can you look up how much you've spent by both payee and time period? Are you able to reconcile accounts?

Yes, you can name your own payees and categorize transactions yourself if you prefer. You can create your own categories and subcategories, or you can use the built in ones. You can look up how much you've spent by almost anything, including by payee, category, time period, tag, account, etc. You can also reconcile accounts using either the current online balance or the balance on your last statement. I hope this helps answer your questions. You can check current prices on the different Quicken versions at www.topfinancialtools.com/quicken-comparison-chart-fullpage/

I've been using Quicken since it began, 83/84. I recently updated from Quicken 2012 to Quicken Home and Business 2016. I thought there would be an area to create vendor accounts within the business section. I want to enter all the vendors I have purchased from in previous years to date with the amounts so I can have a better idea when prices go up. Right now, I'm just searching through organized email folders. Where is the option to create individual vendor account?

Hi Nate, I currently use QB PRO-2014....but I was thinking of switching to Quicken so I can upgrade to Windows 10. Which Quicken 2016 is similar to QB Pro 2014??? I use it for a small business account --mainly for the P+L reports for my accountant. I DO NOT use it to actually write/submit checks....really just need it to input my Income/Expenses etc...and be able to print out quarterly P+L statements...any info would be great....thanks..sherri
@Topfinancialtools

+Sherri Boxer Quicken Home & Business would be the best match for you if you want to switch to Quicken. Keep in mind though that Quicken does not work exactly like QuickBooks. It does not support double-entry bookkeeping. If double-entry bookkeeping is something you need, I would recommend sticking with QuickBooks. However, if you only need to track income and expenses and print out a quarterly P+L statement, Quicken Home and Business will work just fine. If you want to try Quicken, you can check current prices at www.topfinancialtools.com/quicken-comparison-chart-fullpage/ If you want to stick with QuickBooks, you can upgrade to the 2016 version.

Will the Quicken 2016 Deluxe allow synchronization between the Windows desktop program and the app installed on my wife and my cellphone? The main reason is so we can instantly see transactions. If she enters into her phone app she spent $8 at McDonald's I would like for the data to be real time synchronized to the desktop software and my phone app. Will it support doing so?

What if I don't sync it with back by giving my password etc, Do you recommend manually downloading the info and if so how often can I download the info. Is it smart enough to only override previous info for the same week for example. Or should I just continue entering it all manually with no data since in 2017 that feature will be gone?
@Topfinancialtools
@Topfinancialtools 8 жыл бұрын
+shawn norman You can sync manually any time you want by downloading the transactions from your bank's website and importing them into Quicken. It should automatically detect any duplicate transactions, so nothing should be overwritten.

I have been using Quicken 2003 for my business and personal accounting. It has worked great for the last 12 years. Now it will not run on my new computer. There is no part of my needs that I need quicken to access online, no bill pay, no downloading from banks or credit card companies. I have been using it as a stand alone program. Now, apparently I have to upgrade. Any recommendations.

I have created a comparison chart at www.topfinancialtools.com/quicken-comparison-chart-fullpage/ to help people figure out which version to get. Here's the short version: 1. If you track business expenses, get the Home & Business version 2. If you don't need the business portion, but you do track investment accounts, get the Premier version 3. If you don't need to track business expenses or investments, get the Deluxe version. Don't get the Starter version unless you are a new Quicken user with no previous data to import. Starter does not allow you to import from previous versions of Quicken.

Jim, That typically means Quicken had a hard time downloading the update for some reason. Usually, just closing then reopening Quicken will solve the problem. If that doesn't work, you can download the latest updates manually at assistant.quicken.com/patch/QW2016R8MPatch.exe

+Linda K. Quicken 2014 will continue working with full functionality until April 2017, so you should be fine with keeping 2014. However, if you would like to take advantage of the newest features (like online biller synching), you'll have to upgrade the latest 2016 version.

I would recommend QuickBooks instead of Quicken if you are tracking expense ledgers for multiple stores. Quicken is more for small home-based businesses and personal expenses.

+Cherry Mama It depends on your bank. We have never had a problem with any of the banks we use. If your bank doesn't allow automatic syncing, it should still allow you to download the transactions manually on the bank's website, then Quicken will import them.

+Lynn Hill There is only one version of Quicken that works on Mac. It has similar features to Quicken Deluxe for Windows. The Rental Property version of Quicken is only available for Windows. However, you can still have multiple checking account and you can split transactions. The Business and Rental Property versions just add additional tools to track business expenses and rental properties. You can compare all the features for each version at www.topfinancialtools.com/quicken-2016-comparison-chart-fullpage-b/

My dad is wanting to get this and he was going to get it. But, after I read a lot of reviews on Amazon. I don't think it's worth it for him. He is 50 years old and not very computer savvy. Do you recommend a more user friendly product? As well, according to amazon reviews, they are saying that Intuit is going to sell of quicken and people will lose support.

You could try looking into Mint.com. It is not as fully featured as Quicken though. As far as Intuit selling Quicken, yes, this is true. It already happened in March 2016 and so far it is very good news for Quicken users. The new owner, H.I.G. Capital, is committed to improving Quicken and providing better customer support. You can read more about it at www.topfinancialtools.com/blog/inuit-sells-quicken/

thank you for you great tutorial. I just updated Q13 to Q16 onto my computer using Windows 10. Plus I downloaded the Patch 7. Some of the fonts are very small, the tabs at the bottom of the transaction page are not showing as tabs but showing as layered folders (very hard to read), and only 2 of my account passwords transferred out of 14. I have uninstalled the program, reinstalled with my virus protection turned off and still hasn't resolved my problems. Any suggestions?

+Diana Harrison I haven't seen that problem before. One suggestion would be to try adjusting your Windows DPI setting. You can find it by going to the control panel, then display. Make sure the DPI is set to 100%. Another option you can try is to change the font size in Quicken itself. Go to Edit->Preferences->Register. Then click on "Fonts..." and increase the font size.

How does Quicken work better than Mint.com as far as tracking expenditures?
@Topfinancialtools
@Topfinancialtools 8 жыл бұрын
+AJ Hushen Quicken allows you to customize things more than Mint.com. In Mint, you can create subcategories, but you can't customize top level categories. Quicken allows you to customize all the categories. You can also reconcile against your bank account information, which you can't do with Mint. Quicken also works better for tracking expenses for tax purposes and you can transfer tax-related expenses straight to your tax return if you use TurboTax.

Nicolaas, Some financial institutions don't support Quicken as well as they should. It usually isn't a bug with Quicken, but rather a lack of full support from the financial institution. I haven't used Vanguard, so I can't say for sure, but I assume this is the reason you're having trouble.

I saw a comment on another review of 2016 and he said because 2016 is so buggy they have discontinued it. Is this true? Why can't Quicken stop putting out so many new versions and bilking all our money and just wait until they have made sure the bugs are gone and that it does in fact work. It doesn't seem like they care about the consumer at all. All they want is money and more money.

+Pat Hughes That is not quite correct. Intuit has decided to sell its Quicken business unit to another company. In fact, there was just a news release this morning from the Quicken head, Eric Dunn, talking about how the buyer of Quicken is now finalized and they are committed to improving the product. This is great news for Quicken as it will be managed and cared for better than it was under Intuit.
