But I have had problems downloading from some banks while others present no problems. Also the symbles are changed . What is there perpose. Like QDF file? Or QIF. Are these causing the downloading problems? The new quicken home and business 2010 will replace quicken home and business 2009. That I've had trouble downloading my bank statements to.

My old computer was on Windows 2000 Professional and my old Quicken was 2000. I made backup disks from my old computer, however I can't find anybody that knows how to install info from this CD to my new computer. Can you point me in the right direction?

Shameless Geezeo plug here…a couple of features sometimes unknown about Geezeo.

-Aggregation for all account types including Investments (checking, saving, brokerage, loans, etc.)
-Simple spending targets and automated budget tracking

Lots more but I’ll leave it at that. Would welcome your feedback.

I am in the same boat as you and am more concerned with tracking my investments and planning for the future. I'm sure they have that in development, and I might consider it then.

But if Quicken can offer wider authentication (Mint has trouble with some financial institutions) they could quickly become the front-runner. I love Mint.

You have to enter the stock/mutual fund symbols and current balance into the X-Ray tool, but with Yodlee, everything should be right there and it shouldn't take too long. If it does, maybe it's a signal to simplify your holdings.

Is there any service that can pull together a complete financial picture (including investment information, asset allocation)? I thought that regular Quicken could do it but when I tried to use it just for that Quicken would get all out of whack. Regular Quicken wants me to use all of its features, but I just want the financial picture! Flexo: Thanks for the follow-up.

Maybe I should have stuck with it longer, but every time I tried to set up Quicken, the quirks would get so annoying and my financial picture would get screwed up that I just quit. With traditional Quicken it seems that you MUST use it daily to keep an up to date financial picture. What I am looking for is an up to date financial picture of my net worth and investment performance (including asset allocation data). All this data is available online from my various banks/institutions, and if Quicken Online can pull it all together that is fantastic.
