Regarding the menu issue, as you probably guessed I am very new to
KMyMoney. So that may explain some of the uninformed questions. I
installed it this week to evaluate it as a replacement for Quicken so
that I can move away from Windows. I could run Quicken under Wine, I
guess, but tried it about a year ago and found many operational issues.
Regarding the greyed-out qif import option. When I created an account
first, as you explained, then the qif option became available and I was
able to import my records. Thanks for the instruction. I now understand
that step to mean "create one account in KMyMoney for each account that
you have in the import file". Guess it would help if I spent more time
reading the guide.
It would be nice, though, if the accounts could all be created
automatically from the definitions in the qif/ofx file. I have quite a
few to set up and it will take some effort.
I'll look at that over the
next few days and let you know what process I used. BTW, my qif export
contained just the transactions and account names. I will re-export
with all output options set and see what that does.
I'll also look at the .qfx file, but it seems like I got a little
dyslexic somehow. Sorry about that.
Thanks for you prompt replies and your help.

Will do, thanks.
Now that I am beyond the "Menu" issue, I have another problem. I need
to import my quicken data. I have exported in both .qif and .qxf, which
are the only two Quicken options that appear to be supported by
KMyMoney. See attached pdf with 3 screenshots.
When I bring up the import menu, the .qif entry is greyed-out and cannot
be selected (first sceeenshot). So that's the first issue.
Can we back-track a little here, as the first screen-shot seems to be
for OFX/QFX files.
When you first click on File->Import, are you saying that the QIF...
menu is grayed-out? If so, let's back-track a bit more. When you open
KMYMoney for the first time, you should see a box headed "Start with one
of the following activities... . If at that time, you try to import a
qif file, you can't because you haven't yet created an account into
which to import it. Instead, click on 'Get started and setup my
accounts'. Follow through that wizard and you'll get to the point where
you've created a checking and other accounts. You should now be able to
import your qif file.
However, this last stage sounds simple, but it rarely is as there are
QIF files and there are QIF files and... I think you get the message.
You may get lucky, but you may have to adopt a step-by-step approach to
the import, and import smaller chunks from Quicken.
However, let's know which steps you followed and what the results were.
We'll come back to the QFX issue later. However, looking at your second
screen-shot, I notice that the file extension is 'qxf' rather than
'qfx'. This may or may not be relevant.
Allan
The second issue is when I choose the ofx option instead, the resulting
popup does not see the .qfx file when the filter is set to the default
i.e. ".ofx .qfx .ofc" (second screenshot).
If I remove the filter, I can see and select the .qfx file, but KMyMoney
cannot open it (third screenshot).
Please advise if I should open a separate bug report for that or if
there is some simple explanation that I may be doing something wrong.

Ignore my earlier question as it was just due to my confusion.
I think what may have contributed to my confusion, though, is that the
Menu bar does not 'stick' with the KMyMoney window (at least in the
Virtual Box enviromnent) when it is resized. Rather, it stays attached
just below the VirtualBox Menu line. So if I resize the KMyMoney window
and move it, the Window is disconnected from its Menu.
Not sure if you consider that an issue or not. If you do, I can
provided screen-shots.
Thanks.
That certainly sounds strange and does need to be investigated. Of
course, the problem may not be in KMyMoney itself.
Please would you raise a bug athttps://bugs.kde.org/ , with a more
descriptive title like, say, in your post, 'Window is disconnected from
its Menu'.
Screen-shots would be helpful, with the steps to show the problem, and
the distro and revision you are using.

There is one problem we are aware, but it happens almost only in Unity,

We are not aware of any issues with the menu bar. Could you file a bug,
with more details and perhaps a screenshot?
Thanks!

Hello,
What do you mean by "supporting Gnome"?
KMyMoney runs fine in a Gnome desktop, although the integration is
better within a KDE environment.
