Synchronisation on Mac Demo version

Mac Demo Version 5.0.2 (which is the most recent posted) Mac operating system OS-X 10.8.5 There seems to be a basic fault with synchronisation of iCompta on the Mac.

Re: Securities problem for UK shares

Now that I have iCompta working for shares, I move on to the next problem. In fact, most of my investments are mutual funds rather than stocks.

Re: Securities problem for UK shares
