Multiple Computers

I have a quicken account on one computer but use another computer at another location and would like to access my account since it is on cloud but was told by Quicken I could not do it. I would be willing to pay more to be able to resolve this issue.

Just to clarify a couple of items....You have the Quicken program installed on one computer, and you created a Quicken data file on that computer.
You can have as many data files as you want - like MS Word or Excel -The Quicken Cloud is only used to mirror certain user selected accounts for access via a browser
and the Quicken on the Web website - or by using the Quicken Mobile App on a smartphone.Given all that - Quicken is NOT a shared data file product, nor a cloud based product...
What do you want to accomplish at the other location with your Quicken data ?

I used to travel extensively for business ... fly out on Monday and home on Friday.I had PCs, and Q, at both locations.SO, the last thing that I'd do on Monday (or, maybe Sunday night) was to take a backup of Q to a USB drive.THEN, the first thing that I'd do when I got to the client site was to restore from the USB to that computer ... thus I could work with Q all week.The last thing that I'd do on Friday, before leaving, was to backup Q to that USB drive ... and then restore when I got home.The Q cloud is NOT a "shared file" ... but you can, if you wish, backup to a cloud drive instead of a USB.
