How bizarre! Well, they state "We apologize for any confustion this may
cause, and would like inform you that the patch is not yet available." ; I
assure it they're wrong! It WAS available (maybe 'no longer available' is
more accurate?) ; I'm running it! And yes, it does require one more
keystroke because you either have to allow the overwrite of the existing
backup, or cancel the operation (Again, no choice to have it create a
DIFFERENT backup for the same day like it used to do....)

(I also note that the notice is full of grammatical errors ("confustion"??,
"It has been reported that some customer may have received a notice"...I
must have been that single customer, since that statement sure as hell
doesn't reflect more than one person!). Even that notice sounds rushed
through QA....)

Yes, very bizarre. Sounds like someone goofed and released a "beta"
patch. I do hope Intuit revisits how they've implemented the backup
changes before they release the final patch. (I made a couple posts in
the Q2010 forum over at Q Inner Circle.)

Hi, Margaret.

Nope! Not even a hint of it here, even with 2 or more OSUs just about every
day. The only way I know about R 3 is from messages in this newsgroup.

I do hope it shows up soon - but I'm not in too big a hurry since my HDD
still has room for maybe a hundred more of those 45 MB QDF files. Of
course, at about 3 a day, I may have to start deleting some in a month or
so.

As usual, I'd rather have it RIGHT than to have it QUICK - but BOTH would be
nice! ;^}

Just got an email from Quicken Support saying R3 will be available on
Friday November 20th.

I just received, in Quicken 2010, an update offer to R3. I know there
has been a problem with this release, so is this the valid update to
R3 for Q2010? Or should I wait for the promised Nov 20th release.
This is confusing!
