Quicken For Mac 2015 Asking For Login
I installed Q Mac 2015 over the weekend and converted my existing data from Q Win 2013 to the new format. The new program seems to be dramatically less than the old one. For example, Q Win 2013 gives me so much of what I want in information and reports on investments; Q Mac 2015 seems almost devoid of investment reports.

I haven't yet decided whether my current opinion of it arises from my inexperience, and that I have yet to discover all the goodies in Q Mac 2015. If the goodies are there, they are hidden well.

Those items look pretty substantial.
Itunes gift card code generator for mac. I'm not quite willing to drop Windows, yet. For now I'll be sticking w/ Parallels.
I'm actually evaluating CrossOver, which at the moment can be purchased on StackSocial.com for $30. My mom is running Q '14 H&B on a MBAir w/ CrossOver and I'm running Q '13 H&B on a MBPro.
There are a few quirks in using it, but nothing we can't work around. I decided to not purchase yet.

Click to expand.We're probably reaching over the line from a Q discussion to a Parallels vs. CrossOver discussion, but since this thread is about Q Mac in a group that normally deals w/ Q Win.
I'm just getting started w/ CrossOver. V13.2 has not required a reboot, yet. However, I haven't let my Mac go to sleep several times w/ CrossOver still running, either.
The main reason for the 'potential' switch is due to a couple of calls frommy mom (novice computer user), with a Windows-under-Parallels config, claiming her MBAir 'just won't work'. She can't even enter a password. When it happens, she can only see what she says is a gray screen or ablack one. We've had to reboot the MBAir to get anything to work.
In my own experience, the only times that happens to me (rare) is when I'veput the Mac to sleep while the Parallels machine is still either active oridled at the time the Mac goes to sleep. I've told her several times to make sure the Windows machine is completely shut down (not idled) before sheputs the Mac to sleep, but it's easy to forget. In an ideal world, that shouldn't matter & the Parallels machine should respond w/o issue, but that's not what we're experiencing.
I should probably follow up with Parallels support, but that would cost me a support session fee & I only occasionallyhave physical access to the MBAir. That, and I've got a day job that's complex enough; I don't want to add an unpaid, evening IT job to that. When I explain that she's actually running a Windows machine on her Mac, she kind of gets it, but kid of doesn't. I want something easy, reliable, & as unobtrusive as possible. After a week, she said she's been more pleased with the responsiveness of starting Q under the CrossOver config.
