New(ish) Forum message handling isn't ideal.

I really like the fact that you can reply directly to a given comment, but all the "automatic hiding" makes it really hard to find new posts and such.

Finding an Older Post in the Community, by User Name

pablomiller — Wed, 12 Aug 2026 15:35:21 +0000

Is there a way to find posts by a given user? It would be great if there were a filter to find posts from a given user, sortable by date, or perhaps other criteria. Does such exist?

Permission Problem when opening a prior posted request

pablomiller — Wed, 22 Jul 2026 16:52:52 +0000

I've encountered a problem opening a prior Feature Request of mine. The message I get is shown below says You need the Vanilla.Discussions.View permission to do that. The link I'm trying to open is:

The current Report column limit of 250 columns is quite limiting, particularly for users that Export their data for more extensive off-line analysis in platforms such as Excel, or other more powerful analysis platforms. For a Report seeking to analyze data on a Daily frequency, this only allows about 35 weeks worth of data to be tabulated and exported. On a Weekly frequency, this only allows 4.79 years. On a more granular Monthly basis, this equates to 20.8 years. <\/p>

Excel expanded to 16,384 columns starting with the release of Excel 2007. This version significantly increased the number of rows and columns available, allowing for more extensive data analysis and management.<\/p>

I don't think it's unreasonable to ask Quicken to expand its Report size limits accordingly.<\/p>","bodyRaw":"[{\"type\":\"p\",\"children\":[{\"text\":\"The current Report column limit of 250 columns is quite limiting, particularly for users that Export their data for more extensive off-line analysis in platforms such as Excel, or other more powerful analysis platforms.

How do we edit our profile email address

Kevinky — Tue, 21 Jul 2026 22:41:37 +0000

I've tried multiple different browsers to edit my quicken community email address. There is a little pencil when you hover over it says click to edit email address but it doesn't do anything. Clicking any of the 3 pencils does nothing. How do we change email address? This should be pretty simple task but isn't.

I can't access a community post that shows-up in a search engine results. It's titled "Can I get Quicken to recognize my 401(k) Brokerage" and is at URL https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7946692/can-i-get-quicken-to-recognize-my-401-k-brokeragelink-account-as-a-retirement-account/

All I get is an error saying I don't have permission to view it

Vanilla permissions problem

I am getting the Vanilla permissions problem message in trying to access https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7899086/how-do-i-get-a-multi-year-projected-cash-flow-for-a-specific-account-with-scheduled-transaction

Is that discussion available? Thank you

Closing discussions too quickly

NebularNovice — Thu, 02 Jul 2026 00:02:09 +0000

I just found a discussion of a problem about corrupted data which has some similarities to a problem I just encountered. The title is "Bank data failed to download and now accounts are corrupted - where do I start??"

Unfortunately, it ends with:

"Thank you - I had great tech support and responded within 2 minutes.
Problems are solved and now I just need to re-enter manually 2 years of
categories and tags for the BoA accounts."

It sure would be nice to know what the solution(s) were. We can't ask the sender, GV User, that because the discussion is closed. That is a very unhelpful way to close a discussion.

Change in forum handling of tab is a pain.

Chris_QPW — Sun, 31 May 2026 20:08:03 +0000

While typing a message I get auto completing when it guesses what word I'm going to type. The way you let it fill out that word is by hitting tab. Since the last update of the forum software, it will fill out that word but then jump to the element tool bar. Basically, making it a pain to use the auto completion.

I seriously doubt anyone uses the tab to go around to the different elements in the comment box. I wish they would put it back to the way it was before.

What causes Janus Hendersen update to be wrong??

gmcglynn1 — Tue, 12 May 2026 01:35:19 +0000

Windows 11 Home quicken version R67.7. At Janus Hendersen I have a file with 3 accounts. Never had a problem with updating it. Today when i updated, It updated 1 account. In that account the total amount was the total for the 3 accounts. In addition the other 2 accounts were listed with the correct total for each but the total amount in Quicken was double what it should have been. Everything on the Janus Hendersen website was listed as it has always been. 3 accounts with the correct info and the correct total of the three accounts. Tried resetting same result. Strange????

New to this community (I lived in a "community" in the late sixties and it was Great!) However...

H-I — Sun, 15 Mar 2026 01:02:31 +0000

New to this community (I lived in a "community" in the late sixties, and it was Great!) However, I just received an alert about an account being VERY overdrawn…I panicked and checked with the bank, and, thankfully, the "alert" was grossly mistaken. Also, I found a transaction in 2025 which should have been in 2024. What have I done wrong??

Thanks! Hans

What to do when quicken duplicates bank accounts

kerryb2 — Wed, 04 Feb 2026 22:02:23 +0000

We have several accounts on quicken and we have never synched with Chase Bank, until yesterday. I added a new Chase account to quicken and went through the process of initiating synching and uploading the banking information into quicken. I ended up with several duplicate bank accounts showing different balances! Some balances are accurate, others are way off. HELP!

How do i get permission to edit my profile

Sammy — Fri, 06 Mar 2026 12:00:25 +0000

I think it is a great idea that some users have placed which type of Quicken app they are using. I would like to place "Quicken Deluxe for Mac" after my user name. The profile setting say i do not have permission to edit my name. How do i add this to my user?
