I think this is why I didn't go with Mint however I mostly use iBank on my Macbook. Like all software it took a while to get used to it.
Here are some links that might help you.

Since Mint is free, I checked it out first. However it wants to download info from my bank and that is not what I need. I want to use it as an electronic register for my accounts, adding entries such as handwritten checks, electronic fund transfers, etc. as I go and then reconciling monthly. Does iBank allow that or is automatic downloads the only way to go?
