I have Quicken for Mac synced to the cloud, but I want to use Quicken for Windows on another computer. Can I sync multiple computers to the same cloud? Even if Mac to Windows?

QMac and QWin use completely different file formats. You can't synch to anywhere, from one, and restore to the other.ALSO, it depends upon what you mean by "synched to the cloud". If you're doing a BACKUP to the cloud, you can restore to another copy of the same Q product.BUT, if you're doing a Q Mobile App or Q Web "synch to the cloud", those only contain a partial subset of your Q data file and can't be used as a BACKUP of anything.

We may sync multiple data sets to the Quicken Cloud. We may not sync a data set from one data file to another data file.5
