I am currently using Quicken for Mac 2007. Can I upgrade my os from 10.6.8 to Mavericks 10.9?

Eric:
You are more trusting of "waiting" for Intuit to live up to their promises than I am!
From Baltwo's quoted article:
This happened when Lion released and Apple decided to remove Rosetta which was a software tool to allow old software to run on the new Intel based Macs.  It took a bunch of developers 8 months to get 2007 working again on Lion even though they didn’t add any new features. 
Intuit had six years notice that Rosetta was a temporary solution to its PPC versions of Quicken, yet waited until Apple finally removed Rosetta from Lion before instituting its programming for an Intel version!?!
This is very consistent with their history of how they treat their Mac customers relative to their Windows customers...
Morale of the story...  don't wait!  For $15, start using Quicken now.

  • I have Quicken for mac 2005, can I upgrade to Maverick from OS X 10.6.8?

    I have Quicken for mac 2005, can I upgrade to Maverick from OS X 10.6.8 and not keep all data?

    I am new to the Apple Support community but am hopeful that you can help me!!  I have just bought a MacBook Air, migrated my stuff and found that my Quicken for Mac 2005 is no longer supported. (I still have my Quicken 2005 working on my Mac OS X - Version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard?)  I saw a thread of communications back in 2012/13 where you helped a lot of people find ways to get their 2005 data into new versions - something about a $15 purchase.  However, I can't find those discussions again.  AND I don't know if they are 'relevant' because I'm now using the latest Yosemite, which someone just told me to upgrade for free....But this same person told me to switch to iBank, which others who have used Quicken for years didn't like.  I'd just as soon stay with Quicken but it seems like they have less support for Mac users.  Do you think I can move my data successfully still?  I live and work overseas and leave the USA on Monday and am trying to leave my older MacBook Air (the one with my 2005 Quicken on it) here....
    Thanks for any advice.

  • PROBLEMS WITH QUICKEN FOR MAC 2007

    Anyone else upgrade to Lion only to find that Quicken 2007 for Mac won't work?  Apparently Quicken for Mac 2005-2007 was originally built for the older PowerPC architecture, and were able to run on newer Intel-based Macs due to an Apple technology called Rosetta. As of Mac OS X 10.7, Apple has discontinued support for Rosetta.
    Intuit is telling me it is an Apple problem.  They also say I can buy Parallels and Quicken for Windows to convert the files and recover all my data.

    iBank is an application that runs fine under Lion, so it may be able to at least partially migrate the data.
    Otherwise the data files themselves have not been modified by the upgrade, though it's unclear what you would migrate them to.
    Worst case, you could always downgrade to Snow Leopard or create a Snow Leopard boot disk, and export your files from Quicken for use in say Quicken for Windows.
    Here's one of many articles for people in your situation:
    Finding a Replacement for Quicken
    Though it's very limited in scope, Quicken Essentials may even do the trick for you if you just use Quicken as an e-checkbook register.

  • Quicken for Mac 2007 problem with 10.6.2

    So I went to open Quicken for the first time since installing the 10.6.2 update and I thought I'd share my experience.
    After repeatedly crashing upon launch, I contacted Quicken support.
    After a 3-hour chat (my favorite part was when the rep asked me what a G4 was)
    I was given the R3 update, which still won't open my main file.
    As it turns out, I have a drive that I can boot into 10.4.11, where everything seems to be working now. I was able to open a smaller (664 kb), simpler more recent file, but my main file (6.4 mb) with all my important stuff can be opened only under 10.4.11.
    I learned along the way that Quicken never updated the code for Intel processors, and that Quicken is proud to announce Quicken for Mac 2010. Here's a quote: "Our Quicken Mac 2007 and earlier users should note that this is a brand new product, so some of the features you've grown used to may not be included"
    Quicken 2010 for Mac - Now with fewer features!
    Anyway, I hope this helps someone out there....

    I am a new convert to IBANK (www.iggsoftware.com). I have been running Quicken 2008 in Windows on my Mac. I have been waiting for Quickens new program as Quicken 2007 for the MAC is only half the program that it's Windows counterpart is. Intuit has chosen to string us along for over a year waiting for their new Quicken Financial Life program only to dumb it down (http://quicken.intuit.com/personal-finance-software/mac-personal-financial-softw are.jsp) to Quicken Essentials for the MAC.
    It is time to send them a message that they are going to lose money for their lack of comitment to us MAC users.

  • Quicken for Mac 2007 - Crashing on 0S X 10.6.8 editing accounts

    I bought Quicken 2007 2 months ago. (Today is Nov 2014) as I was told newer versions won't work on my Mac. I am using MAC 0S X 10.6.8,   "Snow Leopard.  Worked fine until this week. Now whenever I try to "Edit" an Account it crashes.   I have to edit the Accounts so I can set them up for online downloading. I did that initally for most of my accounts and it worked just fine. Now it won't let me do the remaining accounts.
    This system is not letting me upload the crash report by copying into here. How can I do that?  I had to do a screen grab as I could not "copy" the report.  The "copy" feature was grayed out. Then I tried  copy the screen shot as well as directly import it but did not work.
    Any ideas on fixing my Quicken?
    Look forward to your help.

    If you would like to use iCloud, you can try Yosemite. I have an early 2008 iMac running Yosemite and I've had no problems with it. I did upgrade my RAM to 6 GB, following the instructions from the link below.
    Other World Computing
    One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won’t have to go though the revert process.
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

  • Can quicken for Mac run on Lion?

    Will Quicken for MAC 2007 run on the new Lion OS?

    Another nail in the coffin of iDisk and MM, just one of the reasons I use Quicken 2007 and the mac, I can keep an offsite backup of my quicken files on the iDisk using quickens own backup utility, suppose that will have to change anyway so may as well be sooner rather than later.
    Does iBank work in other currencies than USD ?

  • Just updated to osx, can't access quicken for Mac anymore

    I just uploaded OSX to my I-Mac. I like the upgrade but it does not support quicken for Mac 2007 and suddenly I cannot access it. I can purchase quicken essentials for Mac but need to know how I can access the old records and transfer them to the new program. The new upgrade will not open the old files. Do I need to remove the upgrade first?

    Quicken has an upgrade for Qicken that will run on a Mac. It is not Quicken Essentials, as far as I know.

  • Installing Quicken for Mac

    I just purchased an iMac. It has the Leopard OS. I am attempting to install Quicken for Mac 2007. The program installs just fine; receive message "Installation Complete". When I attempt to open the program, the program does not open, but rather opens the document files with the message "Choose a Quicken data file to open". There are no Quicken data files on the computer. Does anyone know how to get the Quicken program to open. Never had a problem with Quicken in Windows; I'm already stating to question the wisdom of this move to Mac.
    Thanks for any help you can give me

    Obvioulsy, the best place to get answers about third party applications is with the manufacturer of the product. You can contact Quicken on the web here:
    You alosmight want to check the manual that came with Quicken to see if that issue is addressed or not.
    http://quicken.intuit.com/personal-finance/mac-personal-finance.jhtml
    I have been using Quicken on the Mac since the very first release and have not had any problems with it for the most part. Those that I have had are very small and they did solve most of them.
    When it asks for a data file I presume it gives you the option to either select one or to cancel? What happens if you just don't select one? Does the program just quit?

  • I'm using Word for Mac. Though there are various instructions on the Internet for modifying the templates, none make sense to me. They instruct to do something I can't follow. I change a template but can't save it to the template folder.

    What the ****.
    OK, I try to change a template using Word for Mac version 14.3.4 2011 edition.
    I make a change to the template but am unable to save the darned thing to the template folder; it asks for a file name like it's a new document. I want to change the blasted template but if I can't save it as a modified template, I've accomplished nothing.
    Does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks

  • Can I use Windows for Mac in iCloud?

    Hello, I would like to use Windows for Mac or any similar program, but I don't want to store it on my hard drive. Can I use it in iCloud, or any other Cloud environment?
    Would you recommend a good Windows for Mac type of program?
    Thank you!

    A virtual machine is a program, see my above post, that lets you install Windows in a virtual environment on your computer. You can not run Windows from iCloud or any other cloud.
    As for cost, you have to by the virtual machine (about $60). You also have to buy Windows (about $99). Or you could use Boot Camp Assitant to install Windows. Boot Camp Assistant is included with OSx. Windows will still cost about $99.

  • When I send an attachment using Word for MAC people have a hard time opening it with a PC. Can I do anything different?MAC

    When I try to send an attachment using Word for MAC people have a hard time opening it with a PC. Can I do anything different?

    shldr2thewheel already sent a teach-yourself way. Perhaps you could be more specific: any .doc file written in Mac OS is opened with difficulty? what version of Office on mac and what version in windows? any format, e.g. .doc or .rtf? Even a simple rtext of, say, 2-3 pages? or only long docs, e.g. 100 pages or more? what language is used? English or any other West European, Latin based text, or other scripts too? What do you understand by ‘people have a hard time opening it with a PC?’ takes a very long time? or does not open at all? etc. etc.

  • I am using Dragon for Mac and it is not supported under the current Mac OS?

    I bought the Mac Dictate program Version 3 latest one out there at Best Buy. Bless their hearts they tried for 6 hours at no charge to me to make it work. They gave me my money back. It continued to crash.
    This is what I learned in 6 hours.
    In answer to your question it is not supported even on the OS X Version 10.9.1
