Several issues could be causing your Quicken finance software to fail at downloading and updating transactions, from issues with account settings to server maintenance at your financial institution. These common issues and suggestions can help resolve these issues when Quicken isn't updating your transactions correctly. BACKGROUND: I have posted this because I found that many people had provided information that either just didn't work (for me) or which effectively says 'you can't run Quicken 2004 under Windows 7'. Word for mac table wont go into next page. You can - both in XP compatibility mode and natively! This post relates specifically to 'Quicken 2004 Release2 CD 2004'. I am using this version because Intuit stopped selling Quicken in the UK in that year. The Release 2 variant was a 'free' disc that Quicken sent to their customers (well those who had recently paid for Quicken 2004 anyway) along with the letter that said they were withdrawing support from the UK. This CD doesn't require a licence key or any other form of authorisation in order to use it although it does nag you to register for a while (don't bother). I MUST EMPHASISE that I do not use Quicken to download from Financial Institutions - partly because I found the process error prone and partly because Intuit withdrew this facility about 3 years after my purchase - presumably to encourage users to upgrade - despite the fact that it wasn't possible to upgrade in the UK anyway! Therefore I can't say whether it would work or not; I suspect not. An account of a failed 'straight' install into Windows 7 B. Successful implementation using Windows XP Mode C. And FINALLY, an install into native Windows 7 - obviating the need to run XP Mode. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ A. FAILED 'STRAIGHT' INSTALL into Windows 7: A preview of this posting showed that the image isn't clear so, this is the message: The following files did not self-register or unregister: 1. C: Program Files (x86) Quicken qwapp.dll The specified module could not be found 2. C: Program Files (x86) Quicken qwinver.dll The specified module could not be found To continue, clikc OK; otherwise, click Cancel. I recall clicking continue and it bombing out. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ B. SUCCESS WITH Windows Virtual PC and XP Mode After having installed Windows Virtual PC and Windows Compatibility Mode, I then started an installation of Quicken into the XP Mode system. The Quicken installation said it was going to install it into C: Program Files. Not realising (or remembering) that the C: drive under XPMode appears to be a separate 'partition', I felt it ought to go into C: Program Files (x86) with all the other 32-bit stuff, so I did a 'custom install' to that. It came up with an error message so I backed out and checked for any residuals (there were none that I could find using Windows Explorer). I then went for a default install. This seemed to go OK. However, once I tried to use my Quicken data file - which I'd put into a sub-directory of C:, I got many write fails from 'QSD'. I then had a think. There was a C drive appearing in Windows Explorer within XP Mode as well as the C: drive that appears in Windows 7. I tried loading the SAMPLE Quicken application and this didn't have any fails. I discovered that the SAMPLE Quicken file was stored in: C: Program Files Quicken BUT THIS WAS IN THE XP MODE 'PARTITION' - NOT THE Windows 7 C drive [sorry if my terminology is haywire here]. So, I thought that if I installed my data files into this XPMode directory, it might work. So I then set up a directory under the XPMode C drive - My Documents - specifically: C: Documents and Settings XPMUser My Documents Quicken Data (on XPM-C).
