Quicken 2015 For Dummies

I have used Quicken before . This has helped me to set up and resume using it after several years away from it.

The verbiage in this product seems to be sufficient, but the screenshots are too small and hard to ascertain. If you’re a visual learner, it is hard to read these.

The print is so small I may need a magnifying glass for the smaller high density sections.

Easy to understand. Never had to use it after purchasing it, however!!!

I am not much on reviews but I felt I had to address stephen nelson's of his book "quicken 2015 for DUMMIES" I have been an avid user of Quicken for longer then I remember. Unfortunately I stopped the upgrades. I decided to start using quicken and so my daughter bought me the latest version for my mac. We installed it and transferred my data. I have looked high and low for books that I thought would help me. Looking over the program I soon felt like a dummy so I got out my quicken 2015 for dummies. I soon realized that stephen nelson was the bigger dummy than I was. I was the dummy for buying his book! Why do I speak about the book the way I do? I thought he was going to explain and walk me through the program as if I didn't have a clue about what he was talking about. For starters he uses pictures in the book. I said great. I started looking at the images and the author must wear glasses with coke sized lenses. I don't have a magnifying glass to help me. I wear glasses which don't help either. His images do not look like my images so I think he sold me a new book but the information in the book is from a previous program.I am now looking for a new bookkeeping program so if anyone can recommend one I am sure we would all be grateful. Even Intuit could not help me.

You would still need the primary (red) Quicken book, but this has additional useful information. The book layout is scattered, so you have to hunt for things, but it includes more detailed information on some topics than the Quicken book. Unfortunately, it appears they have stopped publishing this books for newer versions of Quickn.

This is a good, concise, introduction to these versions of QUICKEN. It gets you started, answers basic questions, and gives "tips 'n' tricks". All in all, it is a great resource for 'openers'. Recommended.

This is as witty as other Dummies books but there's a problem with the print quality. When the author shows what you should be seeing when using Quicken, the images are so blurry you can barely read the example. Also, be aware that it is voluminous and if all you want to do is record transactions in a checkbook, you might be better off just googling your question.
