I recently installed Quicken 2006 on a new machine where I use a Limited user account for most of my work, and my admin user account for installs and updating software.
I registered while in the admin account, but it keeps asking me to register in the limited, and then reports that it cannot complete the registration.
It also does other odd things in the limited account.
Do I need to grant permission to my limited account to the "program files\quicken" folder?
Try giving your limited account temporary administrator privileges and then re-install Quicken from there (you shouldn't need to do an uninstall). After registering and making sure things work, downgrade privileges back to limited and Quicken should continue to work.
Repeat for any other limited accounts that need to use Quicken.

That seemed to work, because it is not now asking me to register. Thanks for the help.
The only remaining problem is that my sounds are not playing - the chi-ching when I record a transaction. They are turned on in Preferences but don't work in any profile
Sounds work fine for me in limited accounts, but I'm using Quicken
2004. Try looking through your Quicken installation or application data directory for where the sounds are stored, and see if the security permissions allow you to play them without Quicken. Maybe you need to reassign permissions or take ownership of those files or directories using the administrator account.-- Mark
