Is there such a thing as good money management software for the Mac?

Hi, I'm looking for good money management software. I've got Quicken on my PC laptop, but the laptop is old, and I want to switch over to managing my checking account on my iMac. I don't need much, just to be able to track my bank accounts, reconcile them, and look at my cash flow.
I've looked at Quicken Essentials, but it's laughable, and the reviews on Amazon are horrendous (no surprise - Intuit is not known for the quality of their products, and they don't seem to care much). I've got Quickbooks for my business (not a fan, but I didn't have a choice), but don't want to track my personal accounts there as well.
Does anyone have a program that they use and like? I've also got an iPhone4, so it would be nice (but not a deal-breaker) if it had an app for it as well.
Thanks,
Sue

What is good anti virus software for the mac?

What is good antivirus software for the Mac? I think I've been hacked.

ClamXav from http://www.clamxav.com . Be cautious of other antivirus software as some, not all just some, can cause system issues. I've used ClamXav for years with no issues with it.
By the way, you may get some responses to this question along the lines of "there are no mac virus's so you don't need antivirus software". While it's true there are no mac virus's today, in my opinion, it's like the stock market in that past performance is not a guarantee for the future.

Or does it? Because by purchasing Motion, you also get the Pro Res codecs and Animation. Will FCE be able to work with them if they're in your QT library? I think so but am not positive. I'd check with the FCE gurus in that discussion forum.
So I half answered my own question. FCE will respect the alpha channel in a PR 4444 file. But from the limited testing I was able to to, there doesn't seem to be a way to export it ( or other flavors of PR) as a PR sequence. It renders as AIC, which is fine. FWIW, it can always be exported as Pro Res via QT Conversion, but why bother?
However, I now have to say – despite what I said in my first post – that I'm not 100% percent certain that the all the codecs will be available by buying Motion. I'm like 95% sure, the more I think about it. But I have too much NLE and graphics "stuff" on my systems to test it conclusively.

Best money management software for MAC

I am a new user. What is the best software for the MAc for Money Management? I use to use Microsoft Money 2006.
I want to be able to link with my Iphone.

I have just sucsessfully installed MS Money on a MacBook Pro using Parallels and MS Windows 8.1.
So far it seems to be working just fine except bank account downloads don't automatically appear when Money starts. You have to do a file import from the downloads.

Looking for a good Password Manager App for the iPhone

I'm looking for a good and reliable Password Manager App for the iPhone with sync capabilities on macs. I've read several reviews on several different apps on iTunes, and either they don't work properly, or they're a rip off, or they just don't sync or all of the above. Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

I've been very happy with 1Password, though I haven't used the iPhone component (not having an iPhone).

What is good greeting card software for my mac mini with Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.1? I want a wide range of existing templates such as Hallmark and Printshop offer, but can't find for this version OS X.

For my Mac mini with Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.1, what is a good greeting card software download with lots of templates and graphics?

Hi simon2010,
as far as I can see, I have resolved it...
Just so I didn't write over my functioning disk in the Mac mini, I took it out and put a spare one in. (Would have saved me going back to the Apple store to get it re-imaged if it did fail.)
I created a Mountain Lion installer on an 8GB USB stick, and first installed 10.8.4 (the latest at the current time) on my MacBook Pro... it worked fine, so I knew the installer stick had no problems at all (that's one thing to rule out of the list of potential causes).
With my spare hard disk in the Mac mini, I then went to try to install 10.8.4 on it, with my 16GB non-Apple RAM in it. It failed as usual in the way I expressed originally.
I then just swapped my 16GB RAM for the original Apple 4GB RAM (2x2GB sticks) which I put back in the machine, and I tried re-installing. No problem whatsoever - it installed perfectly.
It's the RAM! Even though my RAM works perfectly once installed, the Apple OS installer refuses to proceed if Apple RAM is not in. I put my 16GB RAM back in after installing the OS and all is fine.
I'm quite surprised Apple has done this.
Have you changed the RAM? Let me know if it's the same problem or you have some differences.
I assume it will install fine if I put the orignal HD back in, again if I have the original Apple RAM in of course.
PS. Also to note, the point where it failed in the installer with my 16GB RAM in, with the original Apple RAM in it took an incredibly long time towards the end of the bar moving across the screen; it says "5 minutes remaining" for at least 15, maybe 20 minutes, but gets past it eventually, then does a reboot to continue its install.

HT4480 I put my itunes dollars into itunes and am trying to use it to buy lion on my PC and I cant get it to work. I guess I did it wrong, is there a way to get this money to use for the lion app?

Hi, I put my itunes dollars into itunes thinking I could use it to buy the Lion App and when I went to down load it asked for the money then. Is there a way to take the money from my itunes account?

Hi..
"put my itunes dollars" ... did you redeem an iTunes gift card? I see you used the link about redeming a code.
Three ways to purchase Lion
One if from redeeming an iTunes gift card. Two, setting up a credit or debit card account with iTunes associated with your Apple ID, or purchase the thumb drive > OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive - Apple Store (U.S.)
If you redeemed an iTunes gift card, make sure there is enough funds available. You need to take into account when you purchase apps including Lion, there may be applicable taxes or fees added the original purchase price.

What is a good defragmenting software for the mac, and what is the price ranges if there are mutiple ones?

I have had my mac for about a 1 year 5 months, coming onto 6 months. And I want to keep it running in top shape, or as close as it can get. I Am just wondering what is are good softwares for defragmenting a Macbook and what are the price ranges, and what are the recommendations. Which would you rate from best to worst in other words.

First Mac OS X doesn't need defragged. If your harddrive is ~80% full heavy downloading could hurt disk performance but I'd say you're in the clear. If Apple considered defragging a necessity they would have included it into Disk Utility.

Is there stress testing software for the Mac?

I am looking for a stress-testing program for OSX. Something that would press a computer to it's limits and make it crash faster, if it's supposed to crash intermittently. Can anyone suggest such a program for the Macintosh?
iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Hi, T.M.
If you're looking to troubleshoot an intermittent problem that may be hardware-related, See my "Apple Hardware Test" FAQ for comprehensive advice on using the Apple Hardware Test in troubleshooting, including running the test in Loop Mode.
There is also Xbench, a performance benchmarking tool.
More details as to what prompts your question might help.
Good luck!

Is there a project management software for the IMAC

I am new to Apple and I am wondering if there is a good project management and flow charting software available for Apple?

There are some suggestions in this thread:

Is there such a thing as a Volume Structure Test for my Imac?

When I purchased my Imac-Intel in 2009, a program came with it called "Techtool Deluxe-ver. 3.1.3" by Micromat,Inc. It tests all the hardware features on my harddrive with other diagnostics. One test is the "Volume Structure Test" which is the only test my Imac failed to pass. Is this serious enough that I should do something, and if so, do what? Is it an issue I can resolve or would I need an Apple Techy? This program is out of circulation now and a replacement in its place that needs to be purchased from Micromat (which I have not done). Appreciate your thoughts, anyone...

If your computer is working OK then I'd ignore it. If you suspect a hardware problem the computer came with Apple Hardware Test, in order to get the most comprehensive results from AHT it's best to run in Extended Mode.

Good money after bad? The Mac experience for a would-be Windows convert.

I was seduced by the striking design of the MacBook, but am fast coming to regard the whole Apple experience as being an ongoing nightmare. One of the mainstays of my computing life is use of Quicken for personal accounting. I have been using it on Windows for eight years. I bought the MacBook expecting to be able to upgrade to Quicken for Mac but now find that Intuit neither support nor sell the product in the UK. Worse, I can find absolutely no other product available for Mac that comes half way to being as good as my current Q2000 Basic - iBank is so cumbersome and riddled with errors that it's unusable, and as far as importing eight years of Q data goes; forget it. The other main use of computing is for digital photography. As well as suddenly deciding that most of my uploaded JPEGs were unreadable, iPhoto refuses to see my camera as an external drive, insisting every time that it downloads whatever is on it. MacBook can obviously see it, but refuses to put it on the desktop as a drive. Anyway, I digress slightly.
I read, before buying the MacBook, about Bootcamp, and assumed that I'd be able to load Windows to get over the difficulty I had with MS-centric software. Unf. this requires an XP disk that includes SP2 on the same disk. My PC was early XP and I upgraded by download to SP2 - what joy that was as it put me off-line for about three weeks while I struggled to re-configure the networking aspects of my PC.
Anyway, I am now considering buying WinXP SP2 on a single disk to try the Bootcamp route. Anyone had experience of doing this from a newly purchased OEM XP SP2 disk (about 60 quid from Amazon).
I'm pretty disillusioned about Mac. I can't see what all the excitement is about. It's different for sure, but better? Even the Cinema 23" given to me for a birthday present is nice looking but I needed to buy a £15 adaptor to use it with the MacBook - mean or what. It's not like you can use the **** thing with a PC so it sits beside my other flatscreen that I use with my essentially retained PC. The Apple store guy said it just needed a simple adapter to convert it for PC use, but they didn't have one in stock. Now I find that no-one actually makes one because the screen has an Apple exclusive interface.
I'm beginning to think, no, I'm convinced, that Apple is all about style over substance and that the benefits are only visible to those who work in the graphic design industry where styling has rendered Macs 'industry standard', and the nerdy types who inhabit the Apple stores and have time to spend dissecting operating systems and discussing the finer points of elegant coding, instead of lives.
I have a feeling there's going to be a MacBook going cheap on eBay soon, together with a nice 23" display. Pesuade me otherwise, please.

I just ditched my last Windows PC, and one of my major hesitations was that I have years of Windows Quicken data that I didn't want to lose. I didn't want to convert it to Quicken for Mac because Intuit was quite up-front about the difficulties of that process. I took the route of running Windows on Parallels instead of using Bootcamp. I - like you - had an early Windows XP CD, and I've loaded it on Parallels and upgraded it to SP2 without having to re-buy a new SP2 CD. Quicken for Windows runs perfectly within this environment, and I'm continuting to run it and have kept my years of data.
You may not want to go down this path, but it does work - and beautifully! The sad fact is that most Mac users will probably have a need to run at least some Windows applications, which makes the switch to Intel processors such a great move. Most Quicken reviews do state that the Windows version is preferable, for example. But for things like photos, video, and other creative applications, I'll never use a Windows app again. Just wanted to offer my two cents, and I hope you learn to love that Mac!
