    - Money 05 restore problems I need to reformat my hard drive and am moving important files to another computer before I do. The problem is that I cant make my files work on the other computer. I have read all the previous posts regarding this problem and none of the solutions are working. I either have trouble with the password or it tells me the file is incompatible. They are both 1105 versions running on XP, I have tried through a network file transfer, through using the flash drive. I have tried transfering both the backup as well as the original files. I disabled the password on the original to make it easier but its not working. I have tried creating a new file and updating and all of the things suggested. What now?

    - How to reset/clear the budget and fix phantom budget expenses Here's a way I found to reset the budget when there are "phantom" expenses lurking around that don't seem to go away. These phantoms may also prevent you from switching from essential to advanced budget mode. There's currently no good KB article I could find to help me solve this problem. Hope this helps Go to the budget tab. Click on Edit expenses in the sidebar Remove ALL categories (should say Total: $0) then click done Now if you still have phantom expenses in your budget, and can't go to the Advanced Budget, do the following Click on the Budget vs. Spending subtab Make note of any phantom categories you see remaining in your budget (these are what you need to get rid of) Somehow, get to the Categories & Payees window (e.g. banking->account tools->....) For every category (subcategory) that you noted was a phantom in the budget: - double click the (sub)category - move all transactions to some temporary category (use only top-level categories, not subcategories) - when finished, click done - from the Categories & Payess window, delete the phantom (sub)category - when it asks for a new category to put the deleted stuff in, choose the temporary category you just moved the transactions to After doing this for all phantom categories, go back to the budget tab. Click on Edit expenses in the sidebar You should now see the temporary categories - the phantoms have materialized! Remove all the categories and click done This should have fully reset your budget. Move your transactions from the temporary categories back to where they belong and rebuild your budget again from the ground up. This worked for me. Hope it helps for you too.

    - Please Consult Before Posting: Unofficial FAQ Available An unofficial FAQ for this newsgroup is available at http://umpmfaq.info. The source FAQ was last updated Monday, November 14, 2005. You may save yourself and those willing to spend their time helping you both time and hassle by consulting this resource before posting what may already be a FAQ. The unofficial FAQ answers 166 of the most frequently asked questions in this newsgroup. Note that only a limited number of FAQ items have been added or modified for Money 2005--those that are derive from my limited experience with the product and on very high profile items in the newsgroup. Many of these items apply directly to Money 2006. If you are using Money 2005 or 2006 and have a question or if you are considering using Money 2005, please read http://umpmfaq.info/Money2005.htm. As noted at http://umpmfaq.info/Money2006.htm, my limited use of the Money 2006 trial indicates that much of what I wrote a year ago is still applicable to Money 2006. Likewise, a comprehensive archive of this newsgroup is available at http://groups.google.com. Click on Advanced Groups Search; there you should specify newsgroup microsoft.public.money and some search terms you consider appropriate. It is *highly likely* the issue you want help with has been discussed before. In some case you will find it has been discussed **many** times before. If you are reading this group through the Microsoft Community Newsgroups web page interface, you may find the native Usenet newsreader tools handier. Click here to try them: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.money. One last word to the wise: I post this once a week so some people might see it and refrain from posting FAQs. I remember to do this because I also backup my Money data file to several different locations and several different media types once a week. I also assure that these backups do not replace other backups but supplement them in case a problem goes unnoticed for several backup cycles. Occasionally, I also test these backups to make sure they really are. I recommend you do the same as soon as you are done reading this. "Do you have a good backup?" is a frequent first reply to problems posted here. Don't leave yourself in a position where your only answer is "no." It's a lot harder to help people when that is their answer. Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201236

    - Cash flow forecast does not match saving goals data When editing advanced budget: I set up income and expense parameters. I also set up saving goal. At the final step of the budget set up, it displays a summary, including information about savings goal. If the goal cannot be reached, this information includes the actual sum you will have by the date planned. The problem is that this sum is different from the sum I see at the cash flow forecast for exactly the same date. Cash flow forecast value always lower. Note that I _do_ use budgeting data, not transaction trends, for cash flow forecast. Why it happens, why the values are different? -- Dmitry Korolyov [d__k@removethispart.mail.ru] MVP: Windows Server - Directory Services Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201229

    - Update Investments... From reading threads so far I don't think its possible BUT - i live in Australia and there are no banks associated with Microsoft Money so I'm thinking its predominantly a US thing... With investments & updating them my shares are replaced by the US equivalent or advised symbol not found - is there any way of overcoming this or is the software only configured for US use? AMP retrieves details for Ameriprise, not AMP Australia - any suggestions or a lost cause? Look forward to any help... Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201226

    - Problem with Euro symbol I have a persistent problem, and would like to know if anybody can reproduce it. I am using MS Money 2006 Deluxe (trial version). In the currencies, Euro symbol is set up incorrectly - some blubberish is displayed instead of the correct symbol. When I go and update it to the correct symbol (copying it from the character map), it works ok. But when I after that close MS Money and in syncs data, it crashes with the error. After restarting, the Euro symbol is again set incorrectly - i.e. in the default state.

    - 2006 file invlink.xml prevents web access Money 2006, windowsXPSP2 Basic problem is that any attempt to go to the network by clicking on various buttons doesn't work. (e.g.) in money home page clicking on 'investing' 'planning' or 'taxes' doesn't work. The links WILL work if the file invlink.xml is removed! (C:documents & settings\my-name\local settings\application data\microsoft\money\15.0\webcache\invlink.xml) There is nothing obviously wrong about this file it is dated 8/31 and appears to have been come from invlink.cab. Looking at norton's log files it appears that an attempt was made the first click (i.e. on 'investor) to connect to http://g.msn.com as seems to be what most of the 'links' items point to in invlink.xml. but nothing else happens. After that first click subsequent clicks on various buttons that should go to the web do not create additional attempt in norton's log. Also note that if I remove the directory (or just its contents) webcache - the first time I use money it works correctly and reloads the webcache. Then after I close money and open again I once again cannot use external links until I remove the invlink.xml file. What funny stuff can I have set up in my windows that would inhibit the xml file from functioning? any help appreciated (p.s. disabling norton did not help, second laptop computer going thru my router/dsl does work so don't think it is in the firewall of the router, windows firewall is off) thanks, Michael Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201195

    - How do I get Money 2006 to properly process the update from Fidelity I installed Money 2006 Premium a few days ago, upgrading from Money 2004. I have a 403(b) with Fidelity, and automatic downloads into Money. I got a message saying that Money 2006 had to process a statement from Fidelity - it was a reinvestment for one of the funds I have. However, Money 2006 didn't have a clue as to which fund to put it into, and no where within the statement did I see the fund's symbol. So, how do I get Money 2006 to add the reinvestment to the proper fund, rather than just dumping it in an unrelated way, into my retirement account within Money 2006?

    - Using Money 2006 makes it so that My MSN doesn't remember my password I have discovered since installing MS Money 2006 that whenever I get out of Money 2006 and then get into Internet Explorer, I have to re-enter my username and password to get into My MSN. I am sure it is because I've used Money 2006 that it does this (because I always select "Save Username and Password" when getting into My MSN immediately after using Money 2006). I find that annoying. I'm using my own computer at home, so how do I get it to remember my username and password? Rod Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201192

    - Help.. p;ease.. money 2003 & stock split ! I am absolutely and utterly confused. Hope someone could help.. I bought 40 shares of stock, it split 2:3 so that I had 60 shares to sell. Fine. I later re-bought it, then it split again. Fine. In Money, it shows me originally buying and then selling _90_ shares at a different price, so that I end up with same amount that I sold 60 for. It seems that when the stock split again - after I re-bought it - Money had went all the way back to the original transaction and adjusted it for split. So, if I sell the stock, and re-buy it 10 years later, all my totals will be OK but my share #s will be completely off ? Is there a way to force Money to keep the historic data for each batch ?

    - Chase Bank no longer fully supports any version of MS Money I know it sounds like doom and gloom, but I have spent the last week researching this and what I have found out about Chase Bank is quite disappointing. Through the merger with Bank One, Chase Bank has decided to cutover to the Bank One online banking systems - These systems do support OFX download, if thats your bag baby, but they no longer fully support direct download. While direct download from within Money still works, not all fields come down, ie if your employer pays in your salary, the deposit entry will just appear as "payment', it will not include the name of the direct depositor - which is a huge problem if you get more more one payment a month. In 12 conversations I have had with Chase it appears that they know about this, but it will take over a year to solve.... I cannot wait that long, so anyone have a recommendation ? Perhaps BOA ? It seems they are the only bank left that supports PFM software, even then it seems to depend which state you are in... Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201174

    - Microsoft Money and TD Canada Trust. I want MS money to be able to auto-categorize the transactions it downloads from my bank, but aparrently, to do this, it needs to be in "Essential Mode", which requires that Money be able to connect directly to your bank. For some reason, MS Money is only able to interface to my bank in "Advanced register mode", which doesn't auto-categorize transactions. Does anyone know why this is? Does anyone know how to get it to auto-recognize and categorize my transactions in Advanced mode? (IE, if it sees a transaction from "ACME TAXI", I want it to automatically categorize it as Transport->Taxi.) -- .............................................................................

    - Nationwide Financial Hi, I have a 401k held at Nationwide, which is not listed as one of the institutions to choose from in Money's list (it is not Nationwide Federal Credit Union). Nationwide gives me the option to download the ofx file to Money, but when it says "import completed," I see nothing! Even if I download it to my computer and then import the ofx file, I still see nothing. I would like to be able to keep track of this 401k file, and Nationwide says they have been instructed by Microsoft to direct all questions to them, so here I am! I think part of the problem is that Nationwide has the idiotic practice of showing me how many units I have and the unit value, as opposed to shares and share value (and they are different, so I can't open a 401k tracker in Money with those funds and use the "unit value" as the share value, or my 401k is suddenly listed as worth 20x what it actually is). Can someone please let me know if there is a way to keep track of my Nationwide 401k in any way shape or form through Money, and how the import function would work in this scenario? ANY assistance would be welcome! Thanks, Greg Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201163

    - Duplicate Payees Why do I keep getting duplicate payees on the online payments I make in Money 2006? I pay through Wachovia bank, I do have an MSN Billpay account but never use it.

The payee names match exactly; some as simple as "BGE" for our gas & electric, I have two accounts (or 3,4,5,6,....if I don't manually clear them out).

    - MSN Money issue with intraday updates After initial investigation I now know this isn't actually a Money software problem but I couldn't think of a better place to ask. I have been using Microsoft's portfolio manager on the web, and in Money for a couple of years and mostly I'm pretty happy with it. But just the last couple of days it's usefulness has become seriously impaired. I used to get regular intraday updates on my ETF's but for the last couple of days for most (but not all of them) this has ceased and the only updates I get are overnight. E.g. http://moneycentral.msn.com/detail/stock_quote?Symbol=iev shows it as unchanged but if a simple google on IEV shows it has changed (http://tinyurl.com/dk3f2). It's the same with IYR and IYM. But AGG (which is also iShares) works OK. Does anyone have any idea what is up with MSN Money that they are failing to update this fundamental information in real time?

About a year or so ago I decided to move some of my money from a couple of under performing funds to better performing funds. However MS Money 2004 (now 2006) thinks that I've got money in all of the various funds, including the ones that I no longer own any shares in.

    - Account Register Payee/Memo Issues My bank lists my transactions as either a withdrawal, deposit or transfer. Then there is a subcategory that lists the details of that transaction, if any. The problem I am having is that MSM downloads the data from my bank, and when I open the account register all I see is a page full of withdrawals and deposits. If I go to the advanced register I can see the detailed info MSM has downloaded and put into the memo field, but the issue that I am having is that MSM will not categorize using the memo field, nor can I find a way for MSM to automatically fill in the transaction field from the memo data. The result is I have to go through EVERY transaction and edit it out to view the transaction type and/or have a categorized spending outlook. This is incredibly annoying, to the point that it just doesn't seem worth it. I have been through every option I could find to maybe get MSM to automatically fill in the data using familiar names I have given it. It still does not work. I hope my explanation isn't too confusing, I'm sure there is someone else out there who has a bank that does the same thing (maybe all do?).

    - Multiple Payments One of the new feature of MSM 2006 was to be able to "check" the online payments that you needed to make and send them all at once.

Once I check the 3rd, 4th, etc. it stops and thinks and then moves on. 2. When I have finally completed the checking of the payments that I need to make, I get this error "Electronic transfers can't be submitted at the same time as other payments or transfers. to submit an electronic transfer, go back to BILLS SUMMARY page, select the check box next to the transfer you want to submit, and then click PAY ONLINE. Once I click OK, it take the first of the series of payments and proceeds through the SAVE DRAFT OR PAY ONLINE screen, then takes you back to the BILL SUMMARY page. All of the boxes are unchecked and you start over again. This problem comes up whether I am making ONLINE TRANSFERS only, PAYMENTS TO SUPPLIERS only OR MIXTURE OF BOTH. Can you assist?

    - Recurring Transfer on Event (like a trigger) I've been using Microsoft Money for a few years now (currently on version 2006), so I'm pretty sure this feature doesn't exist... but I keep thinking how nice it would be and I haven't seen any posts on it, so I wanted to bring it up. It would be nice if there were a way to trigger a transfer on an event. For example, I would like a recurring notification to transfer funds out of my checking account into my savings account when my checking account reaches a certain balance. Right now I try to estimate when that'll happen and use one of the limited 'Frequency' options (like twice a month). The lifetime planner has some of these event based concepts, but I haven't seen anything like it in the 'Bills summary' section. Anyone else think this would be useful? Is there an easier way to replace what I am doing now? Thanks! Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201105

    - Money 2006 buttons/links not working Recently upgraded from 2004 to 2006. Many buttons and links within 2006 don't work (i.e. do nothing when clicked). For instance in the home page in the selection bar across the top: Home,Banking,Bills,Reports,Budget work but Investing Planning and Taxes do not. Also in the home page in the left column Investing Home, Planning Home, and Taxes Home do nothing. In my portfolio, none of the 'news' links do anything (new news has arrived when mouse hovers but nothing on a click) Other links that I suspect should go to web sites (MS offers) also do nothing. Possible hint, the selection for setup of weather web pages are seen in the default (IE) or within money doesn't seem to have any effect. I can change it but still uses IE no matter what the setting shows. I "fixed" the problem by removing all traces of previous Money versions, including manual removal of registry items. This fixed lasted about two days and now problem is back. Any advise or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Window XP SP2 applied, patches kept up to date, using Norton Internet Security, DSL with a hardware firewall/router. Michael Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201096

    - Money 2006 and adding new bank accounts I just loaded Money Deluxe 2006 and when I try to add a bank account for the Hudson Valley Credit Union, Money links me to the MSN Billpay website instead of asking to provide the sign-in information for the Credit Union. Also, the same thing happens when I try to add an account for Visions Federal Credit Union as well. HELP Thanks much Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201095

    - Money 2005 - Downloaded Date & Balance not available Money had a critical error and closed. Afterwards I could not get my Account Register to Balance with my Account List. After trying several things, I ended up copying all the transactions into a new account, deleting the old account and then renaming this new account. Now the problem is that when I download my transactions from my bank, the "Downloaded Date & Balance" list as not available. Can anyone please help? Thanks in advance!

    - Money 2005 - Does it need to be run as administrator I just upgraded from Money 2004 Standard to Money 2005 Standard, I am running on Windows XP Home with all the current patches and upgrades installed. I did update Money 2005 to the x.x.x.1105 per the knowledgebase. The problem is that I can not access the converted money data file from a limited account, like I could under Money 2004. I sign in with my Passport ID, I get a message saying loading bills. Then I get an error that "The place you are trying to reach only functions in the Business version of Money", I already re-installed Money once per Article ID 894025. I can immediately afterwards as administrator open the same file error free. Since Money is not an administrative type program it is inappropriate to require being administrator and 2004 did not require it. Also, I copied the sample file from the Program File's directory to My Documents where I got the same error. I also tried creating a brand new file with nothing in it as in File | New and adding no accounts. That seemed to work till I exited Money and tried to open it again. I received the same error. I also have the latest version of Ultrasoft Money installed, (4.3.1), but this error occurs regardless of whether Hotsync accesses the data file or not.

    - Cancel online updates for a bank account I have a bank account which is downloaded into Money 2006. I also have a power of attorney on my mother's bank account which is linked to my Social Security number by the same financial institution that holds both accounts. When I set up Money to download the bank account information, it automatically downloads data from both accounts (probably because both accounts are linked by the financial institution by my Social Security number). Money won't let you delete the one account without deleting both accounts since they are with the same bank. You can go in and close the unwanted account, but Money continues to download information into the account which then shows up in my financial reports. Any help would be appreciated. -- Tom Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201060

    - Mutual fund updates working today? Just reinstalled Money 2006 and am inputting fresh data (rather than importing it). Looks like the stock quotes are updating fine, but none of the mutual funds is. Either i'm doing something wrong (can't imagine what, however) or the mutual fund quote service is not working today. Any others having this issue today - or can someone please advise what I might doing wrong? Thanks. Dave Tag: Today's Total Change (but not a Q re mutual fund updates) Tag: 201055

In M06, Portfolio Manager, the total shown at the bottom of view as Today's
Total Change does not, in fact, reset to $0 at the start of each day. It
keeps yesterday's value and, apparently, uses that value as the starting
point for the next trading day's gain or loss. Right now, for instance, on
Sunday, I'm looking at Friday's gain as Today's Total Change (TTC). If I am
correct about this, is there a way to reset TTC to zero at the start of each
trading day?

Thank you.

re: "keeps yesterday's value and, apparently, uses that value as the starting
point for the next trading day's gain or loss."

I believe that the price change is downloaded rather than calculated from the
numbers you have stored in your Money file: the previous day's price will be
adjusted if the stock goes ex-dividend or splits. Example: yesterday's close
was 28.50, but yesterday was the last day to be eligible for a 0.50 dividend.
Today, if there are no market changes, the shares should be worth only $28.00.
If the stock closes today at 28.05, this represents a *gain* of 0.05, not a
loss of 0.45. I am not sure that Money keeps adjusted close prices. Maybe that
has something to do with why Today's Change is not shown.

Of course it sheds no light at all on why you see the change for stocks but
not for mutual funds...
