Unable to edit or delete reminders imported from Mac Quicken in Windows Quicken

benno

I just transferred my Mac Quicken to Windows using the facility provided. All seemed to go great. However, I now see that I have a problem. All imported reminders are uneditable and undeleteable. I have the buttons which seem to allow edit and skip. Neither does anything. When I attempt to delete, the program says "not allowed." Help.

Hello @benno,   

We are sorry to hear about this issue with Reminders that can't be edited or removed. Thank you for looking to the Quicken Community for assistance.

First, save a backup by navigating to File > Copy or Backup File... in the upper menu at the top of the screen, then follow the instructions provided below, in order:

1. Navigate to File
2. Select Validate and Repair File...
3. Select Validate File
4. Click OK
5. Close the Data Log
6. Close Quicken (leave it closed for at least 5 secs)
7. Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists. 

If you are still noticing difficulties after you have attempted those recommendations, you may try the following: 

1. Navigate to File
2. Hold CTRL + Shift and click Validate and Repair File...
3. Select Super Validate File
4. Click OK
5. Close the Data Log
6. Close Quicken (leave it closed for at least 5 secs)
7. Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists.

Let us know how this works.
