Downloading Bank info to Quicken - Data opens "Numbers"

HELP -- I'm having that problem too. I would think I could set up my Mac to default to Quicken as opposed to Numbers for the downloads from my Bank. That's not possible? Or is that what you've found a way to do? Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Thanks,
Tom

Hi Tom,

Welcome to the discussions. Four ways to get your data to open in Quicken come quickly to mind.

1. Launch Quicken, then drag your downloaded file to the Quicken icon in the Dock.

2. Launch Quicken, then File > Open > navigate to your downloaded file.

3. Right-Click or CTRL-Click your downloaded file and choose Open With..., and pick Quicken from the list.

4. (Saved the best for last) Right-Click or CTRL-Click your downloaded file and choose Get Info, under Open With choose Quicken, then Click the Change All button.

Method 4 has changed the default application for the downloaded file type to Quicken. Be aware that if you ever want to open the file with Numbers or TextEdit, etc. you'll now need to use one of the other methods.

Regards,

Jerry

Thanks so much, I really appreciate it. Will go with option four when I get home tonight. Thanks a lot for the help, Jerrold.

Tom,

Two more ways:

5. Click once on the Filename in the Finder to Select it, then Finder, File, hold-the-Option-Key, Always Open With > Quicken. Holding the Option Key changes the Open With menu selection to Always Open With.

6. Same Option Key effect on Right-clicking the Filename to get the context menu.
