Quicken 2007 for Lion is out but won't launch

I downloaded the 2007/Lion Quicken for Mac (just came out?). I am using Lion...
When I click on it is asks for my password then crashes, or just doesnt open.
Has anyone gotten it to work for them?
tried the usual stuff, reboot etc.
roger

Well
it says to try this
A.  Corrupted Quotes File:
Hold down the Control key and single-click (or right-click) your data file
Select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu
Double click the Contents folder
Control + click on Quotes, select Move to Trash
Start Quicken
Open Investing > Portfolio
Hold down the Command + Shift + U keys to rebuild the Quotes.  NOTE: You may still need to download Historical prices for 5 years to get the complete data.
so I trashed the quotes file and it indeed opens in Lion, but of course all the quotes are gone.
I can download them, but some are put in manually so that data is gone, and it only goes back 5 years. I think the files I have go back further,
so I want to try the "rebuild the quotes" option but I hold down the COMMAND + SHIFT + U keys and nothing happens, am I doing something wrong?
roger
BTW I redownloaded the software, now that I got the email that it was available, and they had identified the problem,  to see if it was fixed and it is the  same crashing version.

  • Quicken 2007 for Lion

    I was wondering if I can convert Q2006 to Q2007 for lion.  I am currently running on snow leopard?

    Michael, if you had been on here and following the discussions since Lion came out you would know your statements are counter reality.  Essentials came out and was the stop-gap for the Quicken non-compatibility issues until fixes to 2007 were released.
    I dispute both of your statements:
    1.  "...if you had been on here..."  - Could you please clarify the time frame you are refering to here, please.
    2.  Now Bee may have anecdotally found one Quicken 2007 user who now prefers Quicken Essentials.  I have never used Quicken Essentials, but I can only go on what I have read over and over again on this and many other forums.
    Don't take my word for it: consider these forum statements:

    ... and I could go on and on and on...
    The statement I was disputing was:
    Another option would be to upgrade the Quicken to the new one for Macs.  It works so much better that 2007, and opens old Q files.
    Your statement to me was:
    Essentials came out and was the stop-gap for the Quicken non-compatibility issues until fixes to 2007 were released.
    That is "apples and oranges!"
    Now if you want to defend Quicken Essentials for what it offered until the release by Intuit of Quicken 2007 for Lion in March 2012, that is a different issue.  I still would dispute that as the "stop-gap" on the following basis.
    When Lion was officially released, in late July, 2011, existing Quicken 2007 users could continue to use their PPC version of Quicken 2007 by:
    1.  Restoring their original version of OS X that they were using before upgrading to Lion.
    2.  Partitioning their hard drives or adding an external hard drive and installing Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into it and "dual-booting" between Lion and Snow Leopard to continue to operate Quicken 2007 PPC as needed.
    These workarounds worked for all Quicken PPC users until users purchased new Macs that came with Lion already installed on them. 
    Some of these "new Lion Mac purchasers", such as myself, continued to use Quicken PPC on their second or third Macs that still ran Snow Leopard. 
    For those who only had one Mac that only ran Lion, the next solution was to install Snow Leopard Server into Parallels or VMWare Fusion.  And since that was a "pricey" solution, I came up with my Installing Snow Leopard client (with Rosetta) into Parallels solution, which had its earliest posted incarnations in October, 2011:
    [Quicken Deluxe 2002 PPC shown running here - click on image to enlarge]
    So Quicken Essentials was hardly the only "stop-gap" solution for those uninformed users of these other options posted here on this forum and even at that for a short period of time, if at all.
    And even Intuit admits that when you import Quicken Essentials data into Quicken 2007 for Lion, you lose:
    Budgets
    Reports
    Currency settings
    Category tax line item assignments
    Scheduled transactions
    Financial institution records
    Tags
    Online payee information
    Download references attached to transactions
    Account settings such as Hide Account, and online enabled account user IDs and passwords
    So based upon all of these quoted negative comments about Quicken Essentials, I would NEVER advise a current user to use it in favor of Quicken 2007 for Lion, Bee's one friend, notwithstanding!

  • Quicken 2007 for Lion printing problem.

    I installed Quicken 2007 for Lion today. Data files were intact upon installation. I can write checks and make entries. However, when I try to print checks, program unexpectedly quits. Tried multiple times and it quit each time. My printer shows up on "print screen" and everything else looks correct. When I hit PRINT, "unexpected quit" message appears. Help, please.

  • Quicken 2007 & Mountain Lion

    I installed Mountain Lion, now my Quicken 2007 for Mac doesn't work.  An error message says Power PC applications are no longer supported???  What does that mean?  I need help urgently, I can't do banking, use my checkbook, etc.

  • Corrupt Data File Quicken 2007 for Mac (Lion)

    Bought QM 2007 for Mac (Lion compatible) and without touching my personal data file, opened a new file and immediately got the "...corrupt data in data file" message. I've tried everything I could find including: trashing the Quotes file, my old Quicken 2006 app, removing any 3vix files, intuit preferences, etc. Nothing helped. I then ran QM2007 on Snow Leopard with my old data file, and after trashing the Quotes file, it worked. So I saved this file and transfered it to my Lion machine, trashed the quotes file. Same error, ...data corrupted. Thinking it's my Lion machine, I opened it in Safe mode...no help. Created a new account...no help. Imported .qif file..no help. I've searched the Quicken forum...no help. I'm very desparate; anyone have any ideas?
    Mac OS X 10.7.5, Mac Pro (2012), Quicken 2007 for Mac (Lion) 16.1.4.

    Thanks, Baltwo. I'm convinced it's something about my Lion installation that's the cause, since others as yourself seem to be OK—although I haven't been able to run it down. The Quicken 2007 is a fresh installation, each time I try out a new approach, I reinstall the software. Now perhaps it's accumulating some ancillary file that doesn't get trashed, but I can't run that down. I did find something interesting in my systematic search for a cause, and that is that when i install it on my Snow Leopard machine, it works fine with a new, unpopulated data file. But if I re-index my Q 2006 file, trash my Quotes file, then import it into QM 2007, the "corrupt data error" comes up. So I know everything (the QM 2007-Lion) works in Snow Leopard without prior re-indexing the data file, just not in Lion. So I saved my data file that worked in the Snow Leopard version (so it's now a QM 2007-Lion file), try to open it on my Lion machine with a new QM 2007-Lion install, and the corrupt data error appears. As I said above, opening in Safe mode, creating a new account, running my disk through Disk Utility and fixing permissions, nothing has worked so far.
    So I bit the bullet and created a Snow Leopard virtual machine (Server version) with my Parallels, and it finally works, including downloading my investment, credit card, etc. accounts. Now I can move on with my taxes, but I'm still perplexed why Lion won't let me run it. I don't like my SL VM because Parallels won't permit coherence, so it's kind of kludgy.
    That's my story after many hours of troubleshooting. I hope this helps someone else with the same problem. Thanks for trying to help.

  • Can I download Quicken 2007 for MAC using Mountain lion

    Downloaded MountainLion w/o checking what programs would be dropped.  Turns out i cannot open my Quicken For Mac 2005
    so need to find another system quickly

    Intuit has an Intel native version of Quicken for Mac which should work. Do NOT purchase Quicken Essentials for Mac. This is a very watered down junk version of Quicken Intuit released with many of Quicken's features removed.
    The hard part is finding the Intel updated version of Quicken 2007 for Mac. You'd swear Intuit is deliberately hiding it. Trying to locate it through Intuit's site is almost impossible. You keep getting sent to the Essentials version. Here's the one you would want. Had to locate the page through Google.

  • Quicken 2007 for mac qif files

    My MBP (original 2006) died without having a chance to transfer quicken files via quicken 2007 for mac. Now I find that I cannot run quicken 2007 on my new mbp (late 2011). I have everything backed up on time machine but no where to run the the quicken program to do an export. Want to get away from Quicken. Can I, from time machine, export my quicken files to GIF? Any help for suggestions would be appreciated. I live in a little town in Montana and don' know of anyone who has an older mbp that I use.

  • Can't expand Quicken 2007 for Mac updates

    I've downloaded new updates for Stuffit Expander, but I cannot get my updates for Quicken 2007 for Mac to expand and open up. I get the pop-up message "Stuffit archives are not supported."
    Where should I start looking for answers to this problem?

    I did install the new updates for Stuffit Expander.
    I ended up opening Stuffit first, then I opened the Quicken update files. The Quicken files loaded and updated the application.
    Quicken's updated. It doesn't function any better than it did before, but it's updated, thanks.

  • Does Quicken 2007 for mac work with Mavericks?

    Before I upgrade my Imac (2008) to Mavericks, I want to know if Quicken 2007 for Mac and Microsoft Office 2008 will work with Mavericks. Thanks in advance for any information.

    Just a warning, however:  it doesn't work as well. I've had several crashes when I attempted to edit an already saved transaction (no data lost, apparently, besides the changed transaction), and frequently the header with all the account buttons, etc. will not appear when waking the computer (2007 Intel MacBook Pro) up from a long sleep. Annoying, but not fatal. At least Intuit hasn't totally given up on the Mac world.

  • What is the best way to run Quicken 2007 on Lion?

    I must use Quicken 2007 but have upgraded to Lion. What is the best way to continue using a program that is no longer compatible with 10.7

    Unfortunately, you will need to find a different application; you can't continue to use an app that is not compatible. Or, you can revert back to your Snow Leopard clone (you did back up your SL install before upgrading?) in order to run Quicken. You could have two partitions on your hard drive - one for SL and one for Lion.

  • Itunes upgraded but won't launch with Windows 7

    Hi
    I upgraded to the most recent version of iTunes 2 days ago (5 April 2010) and now iTunes simply won't launch at all. I have tried some of the remedies in the posts and have even tried a complete reinstall but iTunes still will ot launch.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance

    I had the same problem: after updating to iTunes 9.1 (no errors) I just couldn't launch it. In Task Manager I saw that the iTunes process was running but it never really opened.
    After nights of frustration of scanning the net for solutions I finally managed to get iTunes to run again.
    1) Firstly I deleted the new iTunes 9.1 and all programmes associated with it according to the directions given here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    It also mentions you should remove the Bonjour service but I could never make that work (no privileges or something like that).
    2) After that I reinstalled a previous version of iTunes. In this case 9.0.3.15. I got the download here: http://www.oldapps.com/itunes.php
    3) Then I disabled the Bonjour service with the MSCONFIG method mentioned at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2292?viewlocale=en_US
    There they state that you should check which service clashes with Windows by trying to disable one service at a time. I found out pretty quickly that it was just the Bonjour service that caused the problems. All other services could run normally.
    After the reboot iTunes finally started up again and I was able to restore my library.
    Only thing is that I can not use the Remote App on my iPod Touch. That apparently required the use of Bonjour.
    I hope this method helps for some of you!
    Cheers,
    Bart

  • Firefox is in the taskbar, but won't launch. (after having issues with a wireless printer install)

    Installed a new wireless printer on my home network. the two desktops running XP-SP2 are fine, but it made a complete mess of my Toshiba laptop, running Windows7.
    knocked out the network, disabled my wireless adaptor, turned off the wireless on the laptop and also disabled my Avast anti virus.
    Got the wireless enabled on the laptop, recovered and upgraded the anti virus program and got the network connected again.
    Can use Explorer, but Firefox will not launch, either from the taskbar or from Start/programs. /they are there, but will not launch.

    There may be a corrupted file on Firefox.<br>
    Please attempt to perform a clean reinstall. <sup>[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/forum-response-clean-reinstall (More Details)]</sup> This is different than a regular uninstall.
    If a clean reinstall does not fix the issue, please try starting your operating system in safe mode.<br>
    To do so, please do the following:
    #Ensure that your computer is shut down completely
    #Press the power button
    #Tap the <code>F8</code> key repeatedly before the Windows logo and startup screen is displayed
    #Select Safe Mode With Networking for the advanced startup options list
