Hi,
Can you go re-reconcile June/July?
Does the starting balance work out there?
Note that, in general, the starting balance is less important than the
ending balance.  The reason is that reconciliation is not "by month". 
Rather, it's "from the beginning of time to the reconcile date".  So if
you unreconciled an earlier transaction by accident, just re-reconcile it
(even though it's not in this month's list, it should have been reconciled
in the past).

Hope this helps,
