web access for multiple files, access

TC1997

Currently have 2017 rental property manager. 1st, I UNDERSTAND I may have to change products. I have multiple files, some personal, some not under this product. Now I have need to be able to share the non personal information and have also been sent and asked to be treasurer of a group who purchased 2019 deluxe. When trying to access their ID it wants to download but then tells me I can't have 2 versions on 1 computer. I need a solution, don't care what the answer is. Tried support and they are just ignorant to what I am asking. Hoping someone can offer assistance.

The 2 solutions I can think of are as follows and would be after you're finished with Quicken 2017 RPM.

1. Use the purchased Quicken Subscription Deluxe for both personal and treasurer data files but only sync the treasurer data file to the Quicken Cloud. The downfall would be 1 Quicken ID/Password for all data files.

2. Purchase your own copy of Quicken Subscription with your own Quicken ID/Password. Depending on which data file you open, you would need to sign-in with the correct Quicken ID/Password for that file. I believe this will work but I have never tried it.

Hello @TC1997

Thank you for taking the time to visit the Community to post your question, although I apologize you haven't received a response and support was unable to persist.

Two different versions of Quicken for Windows cannot be installed one the same computer.

Both computers would need to be used on the same computer and the data file would need to be moved back and forth.

I hope this clarifies!

Why is it that NO ONE can actually answer my question. Quit telling me what I can't do and give me a solution, whether it be a different version or what. I UNDERSTAND I can't use 2 different software versions on the same computer. My ISSUE is file access control. I don't mean to be rude for God's sake am I speaking Russian or something?

I would suggest either using Quicken 2017 RPM for your personal data files as well as the group's that you're treasurer. Make sure each file has a unique name and don't sync your personal data to the cloud. When Online Services for 2017 expire on 4/3/20, you can upgrade to Quicken Subscription. I would return the Quicken 2019 Deluxe if it's in the 30 day windows.

To be honest, your posts weren't very clear about what you're trying to accomplish and I'm not even sure I supplied the correct solution. Have a little patience.

Greg, thank you! I can accept the honesty and you are definitely on the correct path of having answered my question. Additional questions, please; Can I sync their data to the cloud and they have access? How?
As follow-up, unfortunately the 2019 Deluxe (which I am assuming is a subscription) is not within the 30 days. The group took over a month to give me access ( :( ) and I did not know until then about the issues. Between the frustration of asking numerous times I have also had issues with Quicken software multiple times in the past couple of months. With my back against the wall to get things done, my patience had worn out.

Do you still need to RPM features for your personal data? 

You can sync their data to the Quicken Cloud and they can access using Quicken on the Web.

Greg, once I complete and submit reports to accountant for EOY 2019 I can switch to whatever I need as that RPM feature and need will change.

Again, thank you. You have been VERY helpful.
