Money hangs when opening the home page or accessing reports
When you open your Money file, you may find that Money will hang or take a long time to display it. This may also manifest itself when going to the reports area of the program. Thirdly, you could see an error message
obres:34 source 16.0.
This can be caused by problematic modules on the home page which require downloaded statements to be processed. The modules that can cause this are: Spending by Category, Spending Tracker and/or Investment Performance.
The simplest way to rectify this problem is to accept all unprocessed online transactions. This can be done with the following short procedure:
- Disable internet access
- Start Money and work offline
- Use the 'Accept All' option or manually confirm each transaction (the former is much quicker).
- Once done for one account, repeat for all of the others - You can check this is done if you view the account register and see whether there are unmatched transactions there. Note that closed accounts could have unmatched transactions
- Close Money and enable internet access
- Start Money, working online and check the problem has gone
Note that this procedure can take quite a while, especially if there are a lot of transactions to match, and will appear, at times, that nothing is happening. I would suggest leaving the computer for a few hours if it does so, or even overnight.
You can workaround this problem by removing the 3 modules specified above from the home page (see
FAQ Article 309).
