Installing and Updating (Windows)
Installing - Which ID Do I Need to Use?
dpaulovich
- I have a subscription Quicken premier
- I want to install it on a second computer
- Logged on to my account on line and downloaded Quicken.exe
- I run Quicken.exe and get to the sign in page. I entered the same credentials that I used
online without success. Had to use my other email address to log on.
- When I log on I see a request for an activation code.
- Evidently my subscription ID is different then my program ID.
- How to correct?

I have taken the liberty of reviewing your Quicken account and you will want to use the email that you have associated with Community account. This email is tied to the subscription.
To sign out and sign back in with the correct email, please see the steps below.
Go to Edit > Preferences > Quicken ID & Cloud accounts
