I have been using 2008 quickbook simple start and need something more advanced. Is this version a better one than I'm using

Yes. Go to Intuit.com and take a look at the sample pages. It is far better than the simple start

I bought this for my wife. It runs QuickBooks Pro 2013, Office 2010 (which has MS Outlook / email), but also an email client, Microsoft Live Mail, browser session, etc. This is a cakewalk for this system. You won't run into performance issues with your requirements as listed.

When ever you click download it will give you what ever the current version is. The company will give you updates to fix bugs or add or improve on features. This isn't a program where once you download it you're stuck with that version while newer customers are getting a better product. Everyone will have the same version no matter when they bought it. I highly recommend this program for any writers out there. Do not over think it just click that download program.

Not successfully, I am in the process of doing this over the last few days... I bought QB 2011, installed in on a Windows 7 64 bit PC, that was ok. Then the the 'fun' began, tried for 3 hours myself to get my QB 2005 company data file (either the .QQB version or the .QWB) to work, each time it crashed QB 2011. Then spent 3 plus hours on the phone with tier one and two QB tech support with them getting the same problems after trying just about everything! Now they "think" the fix is that the 2005 files needs to go to their 'File Fix' expert team, this will take about 5 business days. Please note my QB 2005 and the 2005 file work perfectly fine in my QB 2005 software. Now I am waiting for 5 more days.... I can only hope this resolves the problem. I'm NOT a happy QuickBooks customers right now! Good Luck, i think you will need it....

Yes, it is very easy. Just put the disk in and follow instructions. I saved mine just before starting as insurance so I would not loose anything if I did something dumb. I have been a Quicken user for over 20 years and the 2014 version is the first time I have been disappointed. I have a Dell Studio XPS 16 inch because I travel a lot. My old 2011 version worked wonderful with the size of my computer. The 2014 version works and transferred easily; however, I had to purchase a pair of readers to see parts of what is on the computer, while the rest is so large you cannot see it on one screen even by extending the size. If I did not need it for investments, I would go back to old version. If you wonder where the search bar is, its the tiny oval at top right. When entering a check, the transaction description is completely altered. You just have to scroll through volumes of data to find what your looking for and put it in your memory bank in order to find it again. Everything I have had since 1 January 1990 when I moved to Quicken is still there, just a little hard to find sometimes. I hope this helps. I just have nasty thoughts about a company and their programmers have to mess something up that is working just fine. If you need more help, feel free to contact me again. Linda

I have no idea why you can not get a version of Office 365 Home for your business especially if it's in your home. But be thankful for small favors. I used Office 2007 for years and after my year subscription it out, I'll go back to Office 2007 much cleaner and easier software to work with, Office 365 is a pain in the rear. you can go on "ebay" and get a copy of Office 2007 Pro or Office 2010 Pro and you'll be a much HAPPIER person. With a lot of fewer headaches!

Returned ours and can't help, but it looks like others have helped you already. Oh...we returned ours because it was not compatible with our QuickBooks through our offsite server. It worked just fine, though.

QH&B 2010 is no longer supported. You can install the software, but I don't think Quicken will confirm that it works with Windows 8. Your best bet is to get 2013, but verify on their website if it is compatible with Windows 8. I preferred the 2010 version over the 2013, but what can you do? While they have quirks, they know they are the best affordable solution for Home and Small Business.

I upgraded to 9.8.2. I did not notice any major differences. I have been using smart suite for over 15 years. I find Word Pro is much more user friend than MS Word. I would like IBM to update it so It would match up the new material in MS Word. they don't seem tp respond to my requests.

I need to be more specific. I do like Microsoft streets not the upgraded 2013. I did use an early verson for my XP. I now have Vista and I am using 2009. I just thought at the time, it was too big of a program for what I needed.

Just make sure you get the right QuickBooks version (Windows) and it will run it just fine. For a low-priced machine, I like it.

ask Google - they are quite good with info and videos - I'd like to know also - I'm finding Quicken for Mac rather complicated.

QuickBooks is a business accounting software that is geared more towards businesses that are other than a "home" business. I would say if you are set up as a corporation, you would probably use QuickBooks. Quicken is geared towards personal finances and a business that is run out of your home. If you are a sole proprietor and run your business out of your home, Quicken would probably be the better way to go.

I don't know specifically about quicken but I am running word 2007 and it works just fine. I would go ahead and install it. I would bet it would be OK.

Absolutely. That's why I bought it. I was a big fan of Print Shop version 6 for XP. I do not recommend the new version, however. I have switched to Serf Page Plus.

I currently use iBank 4 -- I assume this answer will also apply to iBank 5 (which I plan to upgrade to). I migrated from Quicken (Mac) and I have used iBank to record, and even print, checks (using the paper blank check forms that I have used literally for decades to print checks). It may call for some tweaking of the check field settings but it was easy to do and has worked flawlessly for more than a year now.

I believe you have to have the same version, that is the same year. Quickbooks is not backwards compatible so if your using 2013 accountant's version, you'll have to convert\upgrade the non-profit to 2013.
