help for a beginner

[Donald Eugene Mines]

To whomever:

I successfully downloaded the software for use on Mac Laptop. Set up several accounts and enter transactions for the first 6 months of this year.  After entering data I reconciled each account.  While working on the 7th month something happened causing a dozen or so negative balances to show up nearly every month.

I've somehow gotten back to all positive balances but one account register shows a later balance than what is in the bank

I also have a number of entries in "Orphan" account as well as numerous ones in the "Imbalance" account

What is the best way to find my error(s) and correct them?

Your wise words are appreciated.
