Discover, iBank Woes and a Fix

Discover card, ibank, OSX financial software

If you’re using iBank financial software and have a Discover card which was assigned a new card number, you may no longer be able to download transactions. This happened to me. Here is the fix:

• Select the Discover account
• On the top menu, click “Account”
• Select “Disable Account Access”
• On the top menu, click “Account”
• Select “Setup Account Access”
• Enter your Discover user id and password
• Click Download Transactions
• If all is well, your transactions will download to iBank

I had a bizzare transaction download called “Transfer of Balance”. To get my accout right, I entered a transaction for this amount with the sign reversed and my iBank Discover account is now correct.

Discover, this was a pain in the a**. You did not post iBank instructions, only Quicken and MS Money. I was able to figure out what to do after reading those. Discover, not everyone is stuck with a Windows pc. Don’t “diss” your Mac customers.X

Water is falling from the sky!

I think living in Arizona makes rain worthy of grabbing the Nikon CoolPix I always carry in my purse and snapping a few images.
