quicken behaving oddly?

CraigG

I use Quicken Classic for Windows. Over the past few days, it has begun doing all sorts of very odd things. In addition to the delay in running the one-step update, transactions over the past few weeks (from bank accounts, credit card accounts, and securities transactions) seem to disappear at random when I update or even just close out and reopen the file. I've backed up, started a new data file, and reentered the transactions countless times, and am beginning to lose my mind. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Any thoughts? Thanks!

Have no answer,but questions; Do you use the Quicken App on your phone and have it synched to your main computer? That will allow use on both and both keep updated.

I ask because the last several times I upgraded Quicken it resulted in several , but not all, entries in all accounts being duplicated. At present I have synch turned off for a new Upgrade that's installed and a bit leary of turning synch back on.

I don't use it on the phone and have synch turned off. (I had run into a similar problem before, though, which is why I stopped using the app and turned off synch.)

Update: It actually might not be tied to synching, but instead when I open Quicken, it seems to open a prior data file. Is it possible that I tripped a setting that leads it to open an older backup version, rather than the current file? Argh….
