QuickBooks is supposed to be Quicken that you can run a small business on.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We use Quickbooks--our company has 53 employees and hundreds of clients. It works pretty well.

Oh! Well then that's all right then.
I spent most of last night transferring files from my old PC (and on the phone with tech support & sales trying to get them to send me an AirPort card to replace the one they didn't install) so I really haven't had a lot of time to poke around.

My office also used QuickBooks for Mac. I believe the accountant likes it.

I've used Quickbooks for Windows before, and it's fine. More small business features than I'll ever use, but hey, free.

Also, for anyone else wanted to make a cross-platform slideshow with a Mac, I was able to export a slideshow as a Quicktime Movie, which worked fine on a PC.

If I download a show through BitTorrent, and the resulting folder name is Gilmore_Girls.5x22.A_House_Is_Not_A_Home.HDTV_XviD-FoV, and it has a bunch of segments inside it, and when I click on what seems to be the first one the computer says, "Windows cannot play this NFO file," what do I need to do to get the file to play?
(I've never gotten BitTorrent to work successfully for me on TV shows. Be gentle and go slow explaining this. Thanks.)

NFO file is usually a small txt file that says something about another file in the folder. You can try opening that file with notepad. What other segments are in the downloaded folder?

Okay, I did that, and it's a piece of ASCII art with text that says what the file is and the names of the encoders. Nothing about how to play it, unfortunately. (But thank you, I had no idea what NFO was.)
What other segments are in the downloaded folder?
I'm not sure. The file names start with "gilmore_girls.r00" and go through "gilmore_girls.r23." There's also something labeled "RAR file" and something labeled "SFV file."

Hey. New board.
Lyra: It seems very likely that you have files named blah_blah.rar, blah_blah.r00, blah_blah.r01, et cetera. In that case, your best bet is to download WinRar (assuming you're on a windows machine, StuffIt can probably do it on a Mac) and use it to open either the blah_blah.rar or the blah_blah.r00 file. Hopefully, a file named something like "gilmore_girls.5x22.a_house_is_not_a_home.hdtv_xvid-fov.avi" should appear in the folder, which you can watch using whatever your media player of choice is. Probably.
EDIT: Your first thing to try is double-clicking the one labelled RAR file and see if anything happens.
