Without having any additional information, I going to make some assumptions.
1. I am going to assume that you have already tried the Actions>>New Accounts menu item and it does not work 2. That you have tried any other methods to add new accounts and they have not worked either Based upon that -- I them would ask a few questions: 1. What happens when you click on the menu -- Actions - New account menu item? Does the program just sit there -- does it give an error? This would be good information to know to help you diagnose the issue. 2. Is there some theoretical limit on the number of accounts you can have -- and have you reached that limit? My gut tells me that if there is some limit -- it is probably very high and therefore you probably have not reached it -- but this is just a guess on my part. 3. Finally, that last thing I would ask is -- is your file locked or in some sort of "read-only" mode where you cannot edit it? If this is true, you would not be able to add any transactions either -- so if you can add transactions to your existing accounts -- this is probably not the solution either -- but it is worth a try to ask. Look these items over -- and let us know any additional information to help you diagnose the issue.

I currently have an annuity, but I want to set up subaccounts for the original opening balance and the deferred income. Gnucash will not let me set up subaccounts, in fact, it will not let me set up ANY new accounts! I have tried closing and reopening Gnucash, but that doesn't help. Any sugestions?
