I can't reconcile my checking account. The reconcile button at the bottom of the screen is grayed out and not working. What am I doing wrong. I was able to update the account and reconcile at the same time prior to this most recent version.

    Ok. I figured this out. The button does not work. But if I go the pull down menu, click on Account, there's an option to reconcile the account there. It would be good if Quicken would make the button functional, or remove it altogether.

    @Diane620 The reconcile button works correctly for me. The only time it's grayed out is if you click on one of the groups in the sidebar (e.g. Cash, Credit Card, Banking) instead of an individual account. (But if you've clicked on a group, the menu option for Reconcile will also be grayed out.)

    Try clicking on different accounts in the sidebar and observing if the button is grayed out or not. Does it happen just on one account, or is it always grayed out for you?

    Oh! Thanks for your help. I see it now. My checking account is associated with a brokerage account. I was looking at it through "All Transactions." Hence, the button was grayed out. When I clicked on the specific account in the sidebar, I was being given the default "portfolio" view which made me think I that I couldn't select the account that way for reconciling. Turns out there's another tab called "transactions" and when I select that, lo and behold, the reconcile button is usable. Thanks so much for your help!
