How to find transactions with specific categories? (Q Mac)

Quicken for Mac subscription product shows a certain category as being used. When I search "All Transactions" for that category, nothing shows up. Does this mean that it's being used in a hidden account? If so, is there a way to make the search include hidden accounts without unhiding them?

Thank you for reaching out to the Community with your question.
Could you please provide which version of Quicken you have currently running?
If you searched the category in All Transactions and spelled it identically to how it's spelled in your Category List, yet it still does not find it, then that would indicate that it's most likely being used in a hidden account. In which case, you would need to unhide the account in order to open its register and search for it.
Let us know if you have any further questions, thank you!
@DonnaH Where are you seeing that this particular category is being used? Are you sure it isn't a sub-category? (In Preferences > Register, you can select to "Display Long Names" to show the full category name in registers and reports.)
Thank you both for you time :smile:
