US accounts did not come over?

Patricia Ehrman

I imported from Banktivity6 into a Quicken and noticed that banking and investment accounts that are in Canadain funds imported, only needed to adjust banking to investment transfers. None of the investments or savings account held in U.S. dollars came over. What went wrong?

You can not import a second QIF file into an existing QMac file.

However, there may be a way around your situation.

Create another new QMac file and import the second QIF file from Banktivity.
Give the new file a unique name.
You will now have two QMac files - one for each of the two QIF files.

Next step is to merge the two QMac files.
In QMac, export one of the files to QXF format.
Next, import this QXF file into the second QMac file.

See if this will work for you.

Hello @Patricia Ehrman

Thank you for taking the time to visit the Community to post your issue, although I apologize that you haven't received a response.

May I ask that you open Quicken and navigate to "All Transactions" on the left-hand side of Quicken?

Once here, please review the register, do you see any of the transactions listed here for the US accounts?



If not, can you please select the update arrow shown above? After doing so, do you see the accounts populate?

Please let me know!
