Why don't my budgets from my Quicken Desktop show on my Quicken Web or Mobile?

MRennie

I've sync'd my desktop to the web and everything else shows but I can't see my budgets. No budgets on the mobile either. Both of those tell me that I haven't setup any budgets.

Hello @MRennie,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community to tell us about your issue, though I apologize that you are experiencing this.

If you haven't already, I suggest resetting your cloud data and see if that may make a difference. However, before doing so, first, verify that the Dataset name and the File name match each other identically by navigating to Edit > Preferences > Quicken ID & Cloud Accounts (see below). 



If they do not match, please click Edit dataset name and change the Dataset name to match the File name exactly the same (do not copy the file extension: ".QDF"). 

Then, click OK in the preferences window and proceed to save a backup (just in case). From there, please follow the steps below to reset your cloud data.

1. Sign out of your Quicken Mobile/Web app(s)
2. On your desktop program go to Edit
3. Preferences
4. Mobile & Web
5. Make sure sync shows it's ON and click on Reset your cloud data 
   
6. Wait for the sync reset to finish
7. Navigate to the Mobile & Web tab
8. Click on Cloud Sync to reinitiate the sync and to make sure no errors occur
9. Wait for it to finish syncing again
10. Sign back in on your Quicken Mobile/Web app(s)

Once that is done, see if the issue still persists.

Let us know how it goes!
