HT5225 I just upgraded to OS X Lion, and now I can't open my Quicken!!!

I just upgraded to OS X Lion 10.7.3 and now it's telling me I can't open the application Quicken anymore, because PowerPC aplications are no longer supported!  I sincerely hope someone knows how to resolve this.  I'm in big trouble!  I get the same message when I try to open Excel, Word, and a game called Mah Jong.  Thank you!

The Quicken issue has been a hot topic in the Quicken forum as well as many others.  Intuit did not provided an updated Quicken when Lion came out.  I believe that within the past month Intuit has announced a version that does work in Lion, I looked into it, but was not impressed; there were some technical issues that prevent me from using it (don't recall the details though).  Fortunately, I found out about the Quicken mess when Lion came out, and like many users, migrated the quicken data files over to a common format that could be imported into a number of new financial apps like iBank.  Intuit lost a lot of Mac users over this.
As for Excel and Word, you have to buy Microsoft's newest version of Office on Mac to be compatible.

    There is no fix. It simply means that the software is outdated. Adobe would need to release a newer non-PPC version that supports Lion. They may have done that already, I don't know.

  • I just upgraded to iTunes 7.2 and now I can't open it... what should I do?

    Now, whenever I try to open iTunes, it says "iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration." I've tried everything: I looked at my audio settings (but I had no idea what I was doing), I tried to repair the file, and I even resorted to deleting it and reinstalling it, BUT NOTHING WILL WORK.

  • HELP!! i have a ton of videos of my boys stored in iPhoto..They played fine on my old OSX system (leopard).  However, I just upgraded to snow leopard and then to mountain lion and now i can't open my videos at all anymore.  HELP!!

    HELP!! i have a ton of videos of my boys stored in iPhoto..They played fine on my old OSX system (leopard).  However, I just upgraded to snow leopard and then to mountain lion and now i can't open my videos at all anymore.  HELP!!

    Can you tell us about one or more of the video files - what are they?  QuickTime?  MP4?  Something else?  How did you create the video files in the first place?
    I do a lot of video and when I upgraded to Snow Leopard I discovered that many of the QT videos that I had created previously (via iMovie & Final Cut) would not play correctly in QuickTime X - the bizarre behavior was that QT X acted as if my video files were only audio files!  I reported this to Apple at the time but never heard anything back, and there hasn't been any change in later updates to QT X.
    The solution was to (re)install QuickTime 7.  But first look in your Applications > Utilities folder.  When you upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard, the installer normally moves the old QT 7 program to your Utilities folder.  If it's there, try using QT 7 to play one of your video files.    If QT 7 is not there, you can download and install it from here  Make sure you are running at least OS X 10.6.3 before you install QT 7.  It's even better if you make sure you are running 10.6.8 which was the last release of Snow Leopard.

    As I said, there have been reports on there of problems for some people using 2008, as you have experienced with particular components of the suite.
    Best solution would be an upgrade to 2011...I have had no issues at all using 2011 with Mac OS X 10.7.4.

  • I just upgraded to 10.7.3 and now I can't install any applications.

    I just upgraded to 10.7.3 and now I can't install any applications. Everything else in the OS and in applications seems to work OK. After the installers ask for the system password, they do nothing. I doesn't hang; it just won't proceed any further in the install process. I can press the back button and it seems to do that just fine. I repaired the disk permissions, but to no avail.
    After I installed 10.7.3, I tried to install an updater that was listed as being recommended for Time Machine users. That was the first time I tried to launch an installer of any sort and it did the same as above. I've gathered since then that the update wasn't necessary and was already included in the 10.7.3 I loaded today.
    Any hints?

    I'm having a similar problem after installing 10.7.3 and the Messages beta. I've unistalled Mesages with little bit of trouble.. Linc, I followed the step given in your final post any help would be appreciated.
    A screenshot of my actual error. I get this error not just for Flash, but also Handbrake. I receieve th error even when I try using a programs automatic update. However, not suprisingly I do not get the message when using Apple's software update.

  • I Just downloaded Acrobat Pro after trial and now I can't open any files...

    I Just downloaded Acrobat Pro after trial and now I can't open any files, when I click on icon I get this message: the last time you opened Acrobat, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows.  Do you want to try to reopen its window again? If you choose not to reopen windows, you may have to open and position the window yourself.  There are 2 options: Don't Reopen or Reopen  Either choice leads to a window that pops upend says please wait while we launch Acrobat and then window just closes quickly.

    You may goto control panel and then go to program and features.
    Select the Acrobat pro and chose the option change from the top. Fallow the onscreen instruction a windows will pop up where you need to choose repair.

  • I just upgraded to 10.7.2 and now I can't use Adobe CS, Microsoft word or Xcel for Mac.  I can not afford to purchase these again.  any Ideas?

    This all started when we noticed our phone's and calendars were not syncing.  We thought it was because we needed to upgrade from Leopard to Lion and because of ICloud.

    You must have PPC-only versions of the software which cannot be used in Lion. If you can't upgrade the software, then you will need to downgrade to Snow Leopard:
    Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
    1.  Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
    If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

  • I just installed the latest Security update and now I can't open iPhoto. I keep getting a message that it quit unexpectedly because of a problem with the scene kit plugin. I have no access to my photos.

    I just installed the latest security update and now I cannot access iPhoto. I keep getting a message that it quit unexpectedly due to some conflict with the Scene Kit plugin.
    I'm using a Macbook Pro  Mavericks Version 10.9.5

    Probably the reboot used to log into the Guest account and then your account again fixed the problem.  If often will.

  • I just installed Lion and now I can't access my Quicken data.

    I just installed Lion without knowing I would lose access to my Quicken data.  To make things worse, I'm a computer moron and didn't make an external back-up.  I have an old non-intel mac, is there any way to transfer my Quicken data to it?

    The only version of Quicken that will work with Lion is Quicken Essentials. Quicken 2007 for Mac (and prior versions) will not. I recommend checking the Intuit website for information regarding using Quicken Essentials with Lion before upgrading to Lion. More information is available here: http://quicken.intuit.com/support/articles/getting-started/upgrading-and-convers ion/8207.htmlhttp://quicken.intuit.com/support/articles/getting-started/upgrading-and-convers ion/8207.html

  • I just upgraded to OS7.0.6 and now I can't turn off the apps

    I just upgraded to OS 7.0.6.  Before the apps that were open showed at the bottom of the home screen and I could turn them off.  Now nothing shows in that bottom band.  How do I know what apps are on and how can I turn them off?

    Close all apps in the multi-task window
    1.Double-click the Home button.
    2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
    3. Preview will fly off the screen.

  • Just upgraded to iTunes 10.4 and now I can no longer...

    1. Drag a playlist that was created in iTunes to either of my iPods.
    2. Rearrange songs within a play list by just dragging them to where I want them.
    Did Apple really kill these features or is there a just a different way of doing it now?

    Ok, I've been researching this for quite some time today and found a thread in which there was a similar issue and it looks like its related to the use of a Wacom tablet. I plugged in a normal mouse and I can now move songs around freely within my playlists again. Hopefully Apple fixes this annoying little bug soon.
