(Posted 3/12 with no responses, thought I'd try again.) Hi all: It just recently dawned on me that I'm not getting alerts for earning announcements, dividend declarations and so forth when I do a One Step Update, though I used to receive these all the time with older versions of Quicken. The Alerts Center in Q2007D doesn't seem to support these kinds of alerts. Am I missing something? TIA.

The Alerts Center in Q2007D doesn't seem to support these kinds of alerts. Am I missing something? I just got Q2007 (and I don't use investment alerts), so I may not be of much help: The only difference between the Q2007 Alerts Center and the Q2005 Alerts Center that I see is that the Q2007 Alerts Center offers more alerts ... all the ones from Q2005 are present, plus a few more. Earnings and dividend announcement alerts are setup at Quicken.com, then, I presume, downloaded when you do a One Step Update. If you have not setup the alerts at Quicken.com, or if your current Quicken data fileset is not linked to the same Quicken.com account where you setup the alerts ... you shouldn't see any alerts in Quicken. -- John Pollard First initial underscore Last name at mchsi dot com Please reply to newsgroup Back to top   Ads Advertising Sponsor TomYoung Guest Posted: Tue Mar 27, 2007 9:00 pm    Post subject: Re: No more alerts coming along with quotes?????

Hmmm... don't remember ever doing anything over at Quicken.com - I tend to avoid putting my financial info out on the net - but I'll wander over there and see if I can figure it out. Thanks!

I don't think it will matter to your situation, but what you see in Q2007 Deluxe for investment alerts is what I see in Q2005 Deluxe. My previous post neglected to mention that I have Q2007 Premier. When I compare Q2007 Premier to Q2006 Premier, I see they both have the same set of investment alerts ... several more than the Deluxe version. And your Q2007 Deluxe has the same set of investment alerts as my Q2005 Deluxe has. So I think there has probably not been any change to the Quicken investment alerts from Q2005 thru Q2007. -- John Pollard First initial underscore Last name at mchsi dot com Please reply to newsgroup Back to top   Ads Advertising Sponsor Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         Accounting Talk Forum Index -> Quicken All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Accounting Talk----------------Accounting TalkPeachtreeQuickbooksQuicken  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum 68 Attacks blocked Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2005 phpBB Group
