Quicken 2007 not accessable

After upgrading to Snow Leopard, I can no longer access recent files and entries with Quicken 2007 for Mac. Do I need to download from Quicken the OS X Lion compatible version of Quicken Mac 2007? My Mac is too old for Lion.

If it doesn't work after installing Rosetta, which should occur when you try to launch Q '07, get the quicken for Lion version. It's only $15 USD and works a champ in SL. The speed will amaze you/

Quicken does not work in Lion....any suggestions?

Quicken will not open in Lion....Is there a way to get it to work?

I assume you are talking about Quicken 2007, not Elements. I have the same problem and contacted Quicken and they told me that (1) Quicken Elements will run under Lion and (2) If I really want to run 2007, I would have to do this by dual booting my Mac so that I can run Lion sometimes and Snow Leopard some times. Since Elements has only a fraction of the capability of 2007, I will pursue the latter option. I am going to create a new thread asking about dual booting, since that is more general than just running Quicken. Quicken says that there is an Apple dual-boot capability or that I can use 3rd-party software Parallels so that I can run Snow Leopard as a virtual system. I do not yet know how to use either of these.

After upgrading to Lion, not able to use Quicken 2007. Get the following message: PowerPC applications are no longer supported. Anyone has a solution?

After upgrading to Lion, not able to use a PowerPC Application (Quicken 2007). Any solution?

Quicken Essentials 2010 has less features than Quciken 2007. Keeping track of investments is one feature I need and Quicken Essentials does not include that function. I may have to consider others financial software, such as iBank4, Money4, iFinance, and Money Well.

Wish I would have known Quicken 2007 would not work under Lion OS. I had no reason to believe it wouldn't. Any ideas for me?

I switched to Essentials while using Snow Leopard in anticipation. Data conversion was pretty good. Nothing critical was lost, but I did have to reassign some budget catergories for past transactions. It was a good opportunity for some cleaning up that I should have done anyway. They have a 60-day return policy on the Quicken web site which was key to my purchase decision.
I am not affiliated with Quicken in any way other than as a customer. I'd have preferred it if they had updated 2007 but they didn't!

Upgraded to Lion. Microsoft office home and student 2007 not compatible. what do i need to do to be able to access files?

RRFS is correct, however you are incorrect. There is no such thing as MS Office for Mac 2007, your software is probably MS Office for Mac 2004! You can upgrade to MS Office for Mac 2011 for as little as $97 at www.macsales.com or Amazon has it for $90.00.
Once you have upgraded all of your Office data files can then be opened.

I want to go back to Snow Leopard 10.6 from Lion. Quicken 2007 is not compatible with Lion.

I want to go back to Snow Leopard 10.6 from Lion 10.7.2. Quicken 2007 is not compatible with Lion and I don't like Quicken Essentials 2012.

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.

Rosetta 'checkbox' is not in the Quicken 2007 info panel

i got my new Imac, first time Mac user, installed Quicken 2007, which does crash everytime I use it.
Followed instructions for the info panel to check the 'rosetta' box, but there is no Rosetta box in my info window. Under the 'General' it does say POWERPC application
Am I missing something?
thanks

Quicken 2007 will not open

Just installed Leopard. Quicken will not open. Tried reinstalling but software already installed. Help

Did you try uninstalling Quicken before trying the reinstall? Unless you do that, you can't reinstall Quicken. Just be sure your Quicken data files are backed up before uninstalling.

Hopefully you have not updated to Mountain Lion, YET!
Quicken 2007 (either version) will ONLY accept data from Quicken 2006 or 2007. For you, as a Quicken 2005 user, you must obtain a copy of the PowerPC version of Quicken 2006 or Quicken 2007 and that program will convert your Quicken 2005 data file to one that will open in Quicken 2007 for Lion.
Intuit, which formerly used to provide copies of Quicken 2006 or 2007 (PPC) for such purposes has gone MIA (consistent with OldMacFan's observation that Intuit does not want you to find the $15 upgrade page either! To find that link - I always have to Google "CNET Quicken 2007 for Lion" and in the first listed result, Topher Kessler's review of the program for CNET has the link!)
Consequently, go to this blog and post a comment for Ferd to send you a copy of Quicken 2006 or Quicken 2007 (PPC) and when you receive it, you must run it on a Mac that supports Rosetta and PPC software:
http://thebestparts.net/2011/07/26/how-to-convert-an-older-quicken-data-file-to- use-on-mac-os-10-7-lion/
Then when you upgrade to Mountain Lion, your data file will open normally with Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mountain Lion.
If you have already upgraded to Mountain Lion and hence do not have access to Rosetta, let me know and I will give you further instructions.

Quicken 2007 and Yosemite

AFter I updated to Yosemite on my Mac mini, and opened my quicken 2007 for the first time, it was my data from 2012 not from September 2014 when I last downloade. This has happened before on other versions of quicken on other operating systems and I don't know how I fixed it before but I am in a slight panic. Can I go back in time? Is ther a way to access the last time I worked on it without having to re import all downloads in past 2 years? Help!

If you have a Time Machine backup, go back to before installing Yosemite and copy the data file from that time. I had no issues with my data file, but then I have multiple copies, since I prefer running copies on the different OSs.

It appears that you are using the PowerPC (PPC) versions of Quicken 2007 and Microsoft Office 2004.
You need to purchase for $15 the updated Quicken 2007 for Intel (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks; v16.1.4):
http://quicken.intuit.com/personal-finance-software/quicken-2007-osx-lion.jsp
This is a full featured version, not just an update, and does not require any prior version of Quicken be on you Mac prior to installation. It will open your Quicken 2007 PPC data files directly.
As noted, you need to purchase the updated Microsoft Office 2008 or 2011 or use one of the free alternatives, such as LibreOffice.
Another alternative is to restore your Snow Leopard environment that you saved as a backup before you upgraded to Mavericks and then install Mavericks into a newly created partition or external hard drive and use the dual-boot method (System Preferences:Startup Disk) to give you alternative access to Snow Leopard (and your older software) and Mavericks, as needed.

My quicken won't work after I installed mac os x. I downloaded quicken 2007 but need to retrieve my info from my old quicken records. HELP!

I'm new to apple support. Didn't realize I had to type more. I just updated my imac to os x so I could use icloud, etc. To my surprise, my quicken no longer works. I downloaded quicken 2007 but can't seem to find a way to retrieve my old info. Any ideas?

I know you are frustrated from updating and that is understandable. BUT: we should be able to fix it for you. BTW: this forum is NOT Apple Support: we are just Apple users like you who share our knowledge and help.
What model iMac did you recently update? Under the Apple Menu, go to About this Mac and tell us what it says; and then click MORE INFO and SYSTEM REPORT and tell us what Model Name and Model Identifier.
Your older Mac is the iMac G4 "Luxo" (so called, because it looks like the Luxo logo of Pixar turned upside down, the character from Pixar's first short film). Chances are you were using Tiger OS X 10.4.x; maybe upgraded to Leopard OS X 10.5.x. It does not support Snow Leopard or above.
My daughter purchased that iMac and we still have it and it works with Leopard OS X 10.5.8. I do not remember it coming with Quicken 2006, as I would have commandered it for my collection because I was using Quicken Deluxe 2002 up until Intuit released Quicken 2007 for Lion. But if you say that is where you got it, you must be correct.
Can you restore your newer iMac back to whatever version of OS X that it was running before? Do you have a Time Machine backup? Or other suggestions to restore the older OS X are here:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20095881#20095881
Downloading the new Quicken 2007 for Lion before you upgraded is usually not an issue. There is a data upgrade issue BEFORE you upgrade if you, like me, were using a version of Quicken older than 2005. Then you must use Quicken 2006 or Quicken 2007 PPC version on a Mac that will run it (i.e., pre-Lion or Mountain Lion) to update the older data file to one that will work in Quicken 2007 for Lion.
When you say something about a "qif" file; where are you hearing this and in what context? This should not come up in this context, but maybe if you were using Quicken on a PC. Were you using Quicken 2006 on a PC and not a Mac before?
Quicken 2006 CD means you are using exactly that and not Essentials: GOOD!
Does your iMac Luxo have Quicken 2006 installed on it? If not, what version is installed on it? If not, perhaps you can use your Quicken 2006 CD to install Quicken 2006 and again attempt to access your old Quicken data file and see if this works.
Lastly, if you feel comfortable with emailing me your old data file, I can do the translation work for you and resend it back to you to use with Quicken 2007 in Lion. I can understand if you feel that this is sensitive data and do not want to share it with a stranger...

I have a MacBook Pro running 10.6.8 model 7.1; need to upgrade to Mavericks. My question concerns 3 software apps: Reunion 10, Quicken 2007, Appleworks 6.2.9. Any recommendations?

Quicken Essentials is universally loathed on this forum. Quicken 2007 updated for Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks for $15 is the way to go:

Appleworks 6:

Install Snow Leopard Server (available by telephone order only from the Apple Store 1.800.MYAPPLE [1.800.692.7753]; part number - MC588Z/A) into Parallels and run Appleworks (and most other PowerPC apps) concurrently with Mavericks:

Has anyone had a problem with "Quicken 2007" quiting unexpectedly

We have used Quicken for years, yet, suddenly it opens with an error message - "Quicken 2007 has quit unexpectedly" with the option of "Ignore" "Report" or "Relaunch". I am running on OX 10.6.3, I can not get into a program that was been working great for a long time and cant even open it now. What are my options

I would start by creating a new user account, logging out of your current one & into the new one, then trying to use Quicken to see if it works reliably.
If not, then uninstall the software & reinstall it.
