    I have been a Quicken user for many years but have heard that the move to Yosemite is a Quicken nightmare - so I'm trying to research new software.  I'm overwhelmed by the number of available programs, all the things that each program can do and perplexed by the arguments for and against each feature in each program. 
    My needs are relatively simple for my small business:  1)  I need to be able to import years worth of Quicken data into the new program  2)  I need to easily print checks  3)  I need to easily reconcile my checking account each month and  4)  I need to generate basic reports for my accountant (e.g. P & L statements, category summaries).
    I have been a FileMaker user since 1.0 so I don't need (or want) A/R, A/P, inventory management, invoicing, etc.
    I just need a solid, dependable electronic checkbook per above.
    Suggestions?

    Thanks for your response and feedback.
    I would recommend you continue with Quicken Essentials.  As noted by others, it performs well on Yosemite.
    My personal experience is Quicken 2007 for Mac also on 10.7.5 (with many reports of it both updated and successfully running on Yosemite) and I personally would not touch Quicken Essentials with a 10 foot pole -- BUT, if it ain't broke for you, don't fix it!

  • I am trying to install Iphoto on my new MacBook Air adn the install button is grayed out  Any suggestions

    I am trying to install iphoto 09 on my new MacBook Air and the install button is grayed out.  Both for installation and custom install.  Is there a problem that I am not aware of?

    Check for receipts
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • HT1577 I am trying to upgrade iPhoto to v9.4.2(4+) and the message says library needs to be upgraded and its just stuck there for 6 hours

    I am trying to upgrade iphoto to v9.4.2(4+) and it has frozen trying to upgrade my large photo library

    hello, it sounds like the library is damaged.
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. 

  • Trying to download new software and it goes through whole process, stops and says "error...check network connectivity" although I am online.

    Is anyone else having trouble downloading the newest software update for the iphone? I have tried to run it several times, only to keep getting the error message. I am online and it is telling me the network has timed out.

    Start by working through the suggestions in this Apple support document.  The cause could be any AntiVirus or Security you have installed and running on your system.

  • Been trying to cancel my Creative Cloud but keep led to the same place.

    i keep trying to cancel my Creative Cloud but they only give me a link to customer support. i follow and fill everything in and nothing happends.

    Hi Leghend,
    We have this self help doc: Cancel your membership or subscription | Creative Cloud
    Cancelling is something that requires contacting support in sometimes though, normally hitting the "Still Need Help" button should give chat and phone options when available or list available times when not.
    What browser were you testing from? You might try a different one just in case.

    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type

    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Iphoto 11 is frozen on finishing import.  Stop import does not work.  How do I fix this?

    I tried to import photos by dragging a group of them to an album and the import started, but does not finish.  When I press stop import, it does not respond. How do I fix this?  I think that it happened with iphone pictures, but could have been a SD card from my camera, and I ejected it before it finished since I could not get the import to work or stop.

    Force Quit the app - it's under the Apple menu.

  • HT6114 Im trying to update my software but when i click on the apple up top, it says no updates for my computer yet im only at 10.5

    please help me update my software so i can update itunes to back my phone up

    First you need to buy > Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
    Then update it to > Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
    At that point you can update iTunes, then connect and sync your iPhone.
    Then if your MacBook meets the > OS X Mavericks: System Requirements, you can go to the Mac App Store and upgrade to Mavericks.

    I am not able to text one specific person on my iphone 4.  They an sporadically send but she is not recieving my message.  I have read several forums and tried several things.. resetting etc... to no avail.. someone mentioned this may be the network.  can anyone help? the phone also say it is ready to install update to ios 7.0.6 which provides a fix for ssl connection verification.  then it indicates cannot be installd bcause it requires at least 3.7 GB of storage.  So i have deleted some things and pretty sure I have enough GB  but still reading the same message.  OMGosh .. so frustrated.. especially wtih the texting.

    It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect.  This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone.  It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here.  I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you.  I look forward to speaking with you.

  • How do i make a form that will tell me the difference between 2 figures?

    feb = 34,013

    i guess what i am trying to make is a form that will automatically calculate the difference in my investment account each month... and sometimes it goes up and sometimes it goes down... but having the difference calculated for me (without the possibility of me making a mathematical mistake) and then also giving me the percentage would be what i am looking for....
    Numbers will do the calculations, but it doesn't read minds.
    The formulas shown in my previous post assume a table arranged like the example below:
    The results in the bottom three rows (Apr, May and Jun) are correct for the simple formulas given and for the data entered in the Amount column as the empty cells are evaluated as containing zero. In practice, you would want a formula that suppressed the calculation until something was entered in that row of the Amount column. That's easy enough to add, should you think doing so will be useful.
    But it won't make Numbers read your mind.

    When trying to update my software, I get "an error occurred" message, and the update gets cancelled.  How can I fix this?

    I have found other threads with this problem. The problem is that you are using your iTunes account on another user at the same time you want to update software. Just close iTunes from that user. See > https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4577180?start=0&tstart=0

  • Trying got update iPhoto after OS update - This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.???

    Trying got update iPhoto after OS update - This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.

    With Yosemite you need to update to iPhoto 9.6.
    The error message means, that iPhoto has not been associated with your AppleID. You do not say, which iPhoto version you are trying to update from.
    Associating iPhoto with your AppleID should have happened, when you bought the computer with iPhoto preinstalled with MacOS X Lion or later or with the Mavericks upgrade, if your Mac came with SnowLeopard. Try, if you can "accept" iPhoto now:
    Sign into the AppStore with your AppleID
    Open the "Purchased" tab. Do you see iPhoto with an "Accept" button?
    Accepting associates your Apple ID with the preinstalled iPhoto. It should move iPhoto from the "Accept" portion of the App Store to the "Purchased" tab. After that, you should be able to update iPhoto from the Updates tab of the AppStore. If you do you not see the update there, try to buy iPhoto. iPhoto may show for free, so you do not have to pay again.
    Backup your iPhoto library, if you do not have a current backup.
    Uninstall iPhoto by deleting it from the Applications folder, otherwise you cannot buy it again. But do not empty the Trash, so you can put iPhoto back, if need be.
    Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your current AppleID.
    Open the main page "Featured" of the App Store and search for iPhoto.
    If iPhoto is listed as "Free", click the "Free" button to buy it with your current AppleID.
    If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support to sort out the AppleID. Use this link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/
    After you update iPhoto, your iPhoto Library will need upgrading. Make a backup of your iPhoto Library, before you open iPhoto the first time after updating.
