Quicken for Mac --- Beachball at launch

Gilles9

My data file is only 156.7 mb

I use no password

Every time I launch Quicken for Mac, I see the gear turning at the beginning ( a little long, but loading)

Then I get the beachball for about 5-6 seconds ( seems longer and longer every day )

Quicken opens with "Investing" selected, and it takes a few additional seconds so I can see my brokerage accounts

Note if an account is selected at launch, there is a beachball, also, but a little shorter in time ( 2-3 seconds )

I know of no way to rebuild my data file. Is there anything I can do? This is new since version 9.0

Hi @Gilles9,

Thank you for reaching out.

There are a few troubleshooting steps we can try. Before we proceed, could you please provide a bit more information?

• When did the issue first begin?
• Where is your Quicken data file located? To check, open File and select Show "file name" in Finder. Then, please note the file location shown in Finder and let me know what you see.

• Is your data file being backed up or synced by any third-party services, such as iCloud, Carbonite, OneDrive, or Backblaze?
• Do you have any pending Mac updates?

I look forward to your response.
