Starting over with quicken
My quicken accounts have gotten broken somehow. I now have two bank accounts for the same real account. One I can pay bills out of (ie the account that 'send online payment' works from and has all my historical data) and one that current bank statements download into.
I am going to set up a different login on my pc and start over from scratch. Assuming that works, what is the best way to export from my old accounts and import into the new account?
I can 'File - save a copy as qdf' or I can 'backup' and then restore. Has anyone done something like this before? What would you recommend?

You can edit the account that is currently downloading the transactions:
Make a backup.
Unsubscribe from One Step Update for both
accounts.
Change the bank account number on both accounts to
something else
Add a new checking account and set up a new One
Step Update
Verify you can import transactions and write checks
from the new account
You can cut and paste the transactions that
are not duplicated from the historical accounts to the new one.
I hope this helps.
