Questions & Answers

Is Windows 8 compatible with it? Is there a version that can be downloaded as well?

Only Quicken 2013 is recommended for use with Windows 8, but some people have reported success with Quicken 2008, 2009, and 20012; however, according to Intuit, Quicken 2013 is the only version recommended for Windows 8. DEMASH TRADE is a term that has been used to describe a trade that has been manipulated in some way.

Is it possible to run this on Windows 10?

Yes, it runs on my Windows 10 computer. I didn't accept any updates when I installed it because it likes to look for them. For the purposes of using Quicken, I do not use any electronic banking connections.

Is it possible for me to print a personal check?

Yes, if the checks you have are the right size for your printer.

Quicken Basic 2005 is the version I have. Is it possible for me to import that into this program? The newer ones, I'm sure, won't allow it. ?

Because I use Quicken 2015, I am unable to respond to questions about Quicken 2005.

Selected User Reviews For Quicken 2008 Deluxe [OLD VERSION]

We prefer the older Quicken Basic versions to the newer Quicken Deluxe versions

4/5

I've been using Quicken Basic 2006 for quite some time now. 2007 is the current year. One thing that irritates me about Quicken is that after three years or so, they discontinue support in an attempt to persuade customers to upgrade to newer versions of the software; their tech support is a joke. Over the years, I've grown to dislike the deluxe versions' bells and whistles, preferring instead to use the program to track my checkbook and savings account. The number of tabbed categories grows with each newer interface, and the so-called help that Quicken provides becomes more obnoxious with each new version. If you don't want Quicken to drive you insane with their portfolio advice and such, this 2008 version is about the last one I'm aware of that is close enough to Basic. Quicken Basic 2006 is fantastic, but it's more difficult to come by than it used to be, and newer versions require file conversions from older versions to newer formats. This can be a problem at times. Not every version of Quicken was a significant upgrade from the previous year.

Upgraded Against My Will

3/5

I bought this upgrade after receiving a patch from Intuit that allowed me to "upgrade" my Quicken version. When it did, it rendered my ability to download information from my banks useless. This was HUGE for me (if you have Quicken 2005 or earlier, you won't be able to download your statements directly into Quicken). I'd been using Quicken for almost ten years, but I was so frustrated that I considered switching to MS Money. However, once I had calmed down, I decided to just go ahead and buy the new one. (I had been very pleased with Quicken 2005)br>br>It installed fine, but it appears that I do not have the history going back as far as I thought I did. br>br>I had backups of my data, but not just before this new installation that updates the database. It was a good lesson. Before you start a new installation, make a backup.

My previous version, which worked on Windows XP, wouldn't load on Windows 10, so I bought this one, which worked perfectly

5/5

I don't use any of the bank connection options. I was looking for a version that would run on Windows 10. I needed to install a new operating system from scratch, so I went with Windows 10. My previous version, which worked on Windows XP, wouldn't load on Windows 10, so I bought this one, which worked perfectly. Because I don't use the bank connection features, this is sufficient for me.

The world and progress continue to move forward

5/5

Quicken 2008 completed the task of transferring Quicken to a new computer. My bank and credit card companies, on the other hand, have abandoned me and have stopped making "old" QIF available for direct download, so it will take some manual labor to complete.

It's only going to get worse from here

3/5

Quicken started out as a great product, but its utility has dwindled for me as Intuit piled on more and more glitz, along with marginal features that appear to be designed more to get checkmarks in a review than to be useful. Quicken 2000 was possibly the last version to place a strong emphasis on the check register. br>br>If you have a variety of investments, Quicken may still be the best option, owing to its lack of competition. (Gnucash isn't ready for prime time, and Microsoft Money is no longer available. ) )br>br>If you want to keep track of revenue and expenses in a small business, get a copy of QuickBooks Simple Start, which is free but has some limitations.

Quicken has an excellent backup feature, with which I strongly advise users to become familiar

5/5

It's a tried-and-true method for making life a little easier. None of the advanced features are used by me. I am able to import bank records, but not through the built-in method. I need to save files from my bank to my computer or USB thumb drive, then import them into Quicken. That, according to my bank, is the only way to do it without jeopardizing the security of the institution. Quicken has an excellent backup feature that I strongly advise users to learn about and use.

I recently purchased a new computer and was unable to transfer my previous Quicken data

3/5

I recently purchased a new computer and was unable to transfer my previous Quicken files. br>I bought this because all of the newer versions require you to buy it every year.

This application can be installed on both Windows XP and Windows 10

5/5

This program is compatible with both Windows XP and Windows 10. For many years, it has served as the foundation of our finances. We only use it to keep track of things and to fill out basic forms - There is nothing available on the internet. It's been a great help to us.
