<qandaentry>
 <question>
   <para
>&kappname; crasht wanneer ik het probeer te starten.</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>Er zijn vele redeneon waarom &kappname; zou kunnen crashen of een fout aangeven in plaats van normaal op te starten. U moet eerst bepalen of het probleem aan de software ligt of aan uw gegevens. De eerste poging is dus om <link linkend="firsttime.launch"
>&kappname; te starten</link
> zonder uw gegevensbestand te openen. Als de toepassing opstart, maar crasht wanneer u uw gegevensbestand probeert te openen, probeer dan een oudere kopie van uw bestand te opnen. (U hebt toch een reservekopie gemaakt, toch?)</para>
   <para
>Als &kappname; crasht bij opstarten zonder te proberen een gegevensbestand te laden, dan zou er een probleem met uw installatie kunnen zijn. Zie de sectie op <link linkend="installation"

 <question>
   <para
>Wanneer ik KMyMoney opstart krijg ik een foutmelding "Misvormde URL". Wat is er mis?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>Gewoonlijk is de reden hiervoor dat u 'make install' als root niet hebt uitgevoerd. Deze stap kopieert alle pictogrammen en andere bestanden die KMyMoney nodig heeft om op de juiste manier te werken. Als u dit hebt gedaan, ga dan na dat u de juiste prefix aan cmake hebt gegeven aan het begin van het compileren. Zie de sectie op <link linkend="installation.fromsource"
>compiling from source</link
> voor meer informatie.</para>

 <question>
   <para
>Welke opties zijn nuttig om aan cmake door te geven?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>De meest belangrijke optie is -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. Deze specificeert waar u KMyMoney wilt installeren; het zou dezelfde locatie moeten zijn waar &kde; is geïnstalleerd. In vele distributies zal cmake deze locatie zelfstandig vinden, maar als dat niet zo is, dan zou u het commando <command
>kde4-config --prefix</command
> moeten geven om uit te lezen wat de prefix moet zijn. Voor op &RedHat; gebaseerde distributies, inclusief Mandriva en Fedora, is &kde; geïnstalleerd in <filename role="directory"
>/usr</filename
>.</para>
   <para
>Another useful option is -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE. Normally this is not set, but if it is set to Debug, it will allow you to build KMyMoney with debug symbols, which help in trying to figure out crashes. This option is essential if you are a developer and want to contribute.</para>

 <question>
   <para
>De versie in Git is gebroken! Wat moet ik nu doen?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>Usually the reason for this is that one of the developers made a change to the code that requires a clean reconfigure. See the end of the section on <link linkend="installation.fromsource"
>compiling from source</link
> for instructions. If you follow these steps carefully, and still have a problem compiling, please post a message to the &kappname; Developers List at &devlist;, and include the failed output of either the cmake or make command. </para>

 <question>
   <para
>I compiled from source, but the version number in the Help->About dialog no longer gets changed to show the latest git commit, like it used to?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>You probably ran <command
>$ make</command
> without running <command
>$ cmake</command
> or <command
>$ ccmake</command
> first. If you update the code, using <command
>$ git pull</command
>, one of those two commands is necessary to put the updated version number/git commit in the right place. </para>

 <question>
   <para
>Will &kappname; work on my X/&ubuntu; desktop? Will &kappname; work without a full KDE desktop?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>Yes, &kappname; will work without a full &kde; desktop, but you will have to install the basic &kde; libraries first. The easiest way to do this is to use <link linkend="installation.distribution"
>your distribution's package management system</link
>, which will handle these requirements automatically. If you are going to install from source, you will probably need development versions of those libraries; refer to these <link linkend="installation.fromsource"
>instructions</link
> for details.</para>
   <para
>There has been at least one report of an error message about a &kappname; process which did not come from any &kappname; or &kde; source. This is not necessarily bad, but it can be very difficult to determine the actual cause.</para>

 <question
><para
>Waarom kan ik geen transactie bewerken? </para
></question>
 <answer>
   <para
>You cannot make any changes to a transaction with a date before the opening date of the account it is in. The most common reason for this is importing all the data for an account. If the import file does not contain an opening date for the account, &kappname; will use the current date. The way to fix this is to edit the account, and <link linkend="details.accounts.edit"
>change the opening date</link
> to be earlier than any transaction in that account.</para>
 </answer>

 <question>
   <para
>Waarom wordt een transactie in rood getoond en hoe kan ik de kleur kwijt raken?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>A transaction is shown in red if any part of the amount has not been assigned to a category. This is most commonly caused by importing a QIF or OFX file or by downloading statement data online. All you have to do is to modify the transaction such that the whole amount of the transaction is assigned to categories.</para>
 </answer>

<qandaentry>
 <question>
   <para
>Waarom kan ik geen beginsaldo aan een account toevoegen?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>If you provide an opening balance when you create an account, it is shown as the first transaction for the account. If you do not, then the transaction is not there, and because it is a special type of transaction, you cannot simply add it as you could a deposit or withdrawal. However, you can add it later by <link linkend="details.accounts.edit"
>editing the account</link
>.</para>

 <question>
   <para
>When I created an account, I used the wrong type, and now it won't let me change it. I can edit the account, but the dropdown for account type is either disabled, or does not list all the possible types.</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>You can easily change an account type between checking, savings, and cash. However, because of the way &kappname; stores the account information, it does not allow other changes of account type. The way around this is to create a new account of the correct type, move all the transactions from the old to the new account, and then delete the old account.</para>
   <!-- this should have links to the sections on new acct, move transactions,
        delete account. -->

 <answer>
   <para
>The internal calculations of the new loan wizard do not allow a 0% interest rate. The best way to handle this situation is to <link linkend="details.accounts.create.account"

 <question>
   <para
>Waarom kan ik niet al mijn transacties in het kasboek zien?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>There are several settings that control which transactions are displayed in the ledger view of an account. First, check the <link linkend="details.ledgers.view.filter"
>ledger filter area</link
>. If there is anything typed in the search box, only transactions containing that text will be shown. If the status dropdown has been changed from <quote
>Any status,</quote
> then only transaction of the selected type will be shown. In addition, there are two important settings in the <link linkend="details.settings.general.filter"
>filter options</link
> section on the &kappname; Settings dialog. If the <guilabel
>Do not show transactions prior to</guilabel
> field is set, only transactions on or after that date will be shown in the ledger. If the <guilabel
>Do not show reconciled transactions</guilabel

 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>There is no global search and replace function in KMyMoney. Nevertheless, it is easy to change a payees name: select the Payees view and find the entry with the name you want to change. Click with the &RMB; on the payee, and select <menuchoice
><guimenuitem
>Rename payee</guimenuitem
></menuchoice
>. Enter the new name. Since the transactions only use a reference to the payees record, all transactions now show the new name.</para>

 <question>
   <para
>Waarom kan ik geen account verwijderen?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>In order to delete an account, &kappname; can have no other references to it. That means you must delete all transactions, or move them to another account. If you still can't delete an account, there may be scheduled transactions referring to that account, which may not be visible in the ledger. You need to delete any future transactions and the schedule itself, or switch them to a different account.</para>

 <question>
   <para
>Why is there no translation for 'my' language?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>&kappname; uses the &kde; settings for language, so first, make sure that your region and language settings are correct. If they are, the most likely reason is that no one has offered to translate it yet. Translating &kde;/&Qt;-based applications is very simple, and does not require any programming skills. If you would like to translate &kappname; into your language, please post a message to the proper <ulink url="http://l10n.kde.org/teams-list.php"
>team mailing list</ulink
>. Should you fail to find your language in the list or could not contact the team members please mail directly to the <ulink url="mailto:kde-i18n-doc@kde.org"
>KDE translation mailing list</ulink
> (<ulink url="https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-i18n-doc"
>subscription</ulink
> required) and we will give you the details on how you can easily provide a translation for &kappname;. </para>

   <para
>Why did the version number jump from 1.0.5 to 4.5, and what happened to KMyMoney2?</para>
 </question>
 <answer>
   <para
>The use of KMyMoney2 was a historical legacy from when the project went from &kde; 1 to &kde; 2. To avoid changing the name every time there was a new &kde; version, we decided to stick with &kappname;.</para>
   <para
>The first version of &kappname; that was considered sufficiently stable was labeled 1.0, even though it ran under &kde; 3. As the project is now becoming more closely aligned with &kde; we decided to use the same major release number.</para>
