To update Quicken 2004 to 2007, need Rosetta-capable Intel system. Have 10.6.8

To update Quicken 2004 to 2007, I need a Rosetta-capable Intel system.  I have two Intel-based iMacs: MacBook 10.6.8 and iMac 10.8.3.  Is either of these Rosetta capable?  (I don't understand "Rosetta-capable".)

Although you did not indicate what exactly you needed to do, I thought that I would specify the exact instructions for you and others.
1)  You need a PowerPC copy of either Quicken 2006 or Quicken 2007.  If you do not already have one, you can download a full version of Quicken 2006 PPC from the Intuit website: http://quicken.intuit.com/support/help/patching/quicken-2006-manual-updates--mac -/GEN82200.html
2)  Make MANY backup copies of your Quicken 2004 data file.
3)    On your MacBook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with Rosetta installed, you would Launch either of these two PPC versions of Quicken and have this version of Quicken open your existing Quicken 2004 data file.  It will automatically update the data file.
4)  Go to the Intuit website and purchase for $15 their Quicken 2007 for Lion (which also works on Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion):  http://quicken.intuit.com/personal-finance-software/quicken-2007-osx-lion.jsp
5)  Launch Quicken 2007 for Lion and open your updated data file.
You are now set to work on either of your Macs; or, as I do, on both of my Macs!
Good Luck!

    Looks like Apple did the same thing with Lion that Microsoft did with Vista. Brought it on the market before it was ready.
    I run a MacBook Pro and upgrading to Lion caused me two days of trouble and computer crash. Router settings removed and router blocked. Dongle not recognised, you name it.
    In the end, I gave up and using my Snow Leopard installation disk and a Time Machine Backup finally got my computer up and running again. Thanks to Lion, I think I'll stay with OS X 10.6.8 at least it's reliable.

  • How do I transfer my Quicken 2004 data from old MacBook to new Imac with Mountain Lion

    I want to transfer my Quicken 2004 (upgraded to 2006) data from MacBook running OSX 10.5.8 to new Imac running Mountain Lion with Quicken 2007 Lion.  How do I do this?  I thought from what I've read on line that all I needed to do was upgrade the quicken to 2006 and then the data would be readable by Quicken 2007 Lion.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    OK: This information is VERY helpful!  Note my comments below:

    Here is what I'm doing step by step:
    Open Quicken 2006 (it did automatically convert the Quicken 2004 data) -- GOOD!
    Do not do these steps
    I went to File> Export> All 
    Named the file "Copy of Quicken Data.qif" and saved it to the desktop of my MacBook.
    At this point if I send the file as is it would not open on the other end saying that Power PC apps are not supported. 
    I discovered that if I  go to File> Get Info in the Finder window before I send it and change the setting "Open with" from "Preview" to "Quicken 2006", that the file would be recognized by the new computer.
    Compress the converted Quicken 2006 data file by Control-Clicking on the converted Quicken 2006 data file and it should save with a .zip extension.
    Send the automatically converted and compressed Quicken 2006 data file with the zip extension I send it to myself via email as an attachment, I save the attachment to the desktop of the Imac.  Uncompress it by double-clicking it.
    I open Quicken 2007 Lion
    Go to File>Open File... Import>From QIF
    Select the converted and uncompressed Quicken 2006 data file attachment that you saved to the desktop of the iMac and then uncompressed. "Copy of Quicken Data.qif"
    It begins to download, then I get a warning
    "Quicken is unable to import "Copy of Quicken Data.qif" becasue the transaction displayed below is too large...  it goes on to say that there is possibly too much text in the split line detail etc.
    It should open in Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mt. Lion
    Thanks for your time, any insights would be much appreciated.

    Buy Quicken 2007, quicken essentials for mac is a joke. This is the first Quicken product that I invoked the 100% satisfaction guarantee and I received a full refund for ES. Since I downloaded the product I did have any shipping charges to return ES. I have used Quicken since the early 90's (before that I uses a product called "Dollars & Sense" by Monogram, which I thought was a very good program.)
    Quicken Essentials for Mac is Intuit's version of Ford's; Edsel or Coke's; New Coke.

  • Problems using Quicken 2004 for Mac under Leopard?

    I am using Leopard and still using my old Quicken 2004. It works fine for the most part but there are just small glitches. For example, I am continually prompted to set up charges as a recurring bill and it will not let me check the "No" button. I have installed allof the updates. There are no major problems, just minor annoyances.

    Quicken warns of possible data corruption with even 2006, so while I wanted to wait for 2008 (stripped down as they will 'start all over' in features) 2007 has worked and had a couple updates.

  • 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.

  • I need to update my macbook but I need to know what software program to buy to update it. I am operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8

    I need to update my macbook but I need to know what software program to buy to update it. I am operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to be up to date on all software updates at the end.

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
    If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, upgrade it as if it was a Core Duo Mac, and once done, if desired, open the Mac App Store, and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004. If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

  • I have a cd rom for my italian class, which I cannot open on my macbook pro with mavericks installed, someone said I need Rosetta! Help please

    I have a cd rom for my italian class, but am unable to load it on my macbook pro with Mavericks installed.
       Someone has said i need Rosetta, but understand that Apple stopped installing this!1
      Can anyone suggest anything to help me??

    Many educational CDs have not been upgraded due to lack of funds in the educational market to pay for the such updates.
    This situation is due primarily to the fact that one of the major political parties in this country favors tax cuts to the rich while cutting federal educational support funding (or eliminating the federal Department of Education altogether).
    However, you can restore Rosetta and run your educational CD if you install Snow Leopard Server ($20) into Parallels (up to $79) for use in Lion/Mt. Lion/Mavericks:

  • Do I need to enable MySite or have a MySite created in order to follow content and get updates from Team Site library/Newsfeed?

    Hello, we are migrating to SharePoint 2013. In the current SharePoint 2007 implementation we have disabled MySite for several reasons. Question: Do we need to enable MySite or have a MySite created in order to follow content and get updates from Team
    Site library/Newsfeed?

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to know if the MySite is needed for following content and getting updates of the followed content.
    When users follow documents, sites, or tags, status updates from documents, conversations on sites, and notifications of tag use show up in users’ newsfeed, so users need to their MySite to view the updates in Newsfeed by OOB and you need
    to migrate the MySite to SharePoint 2013.
    However, we can also use APIs to programmatically follow content, please refer to the link below:

    I ignored this for sometime but today I lost my patience and decided to fix this nagging problem. The update prevented me from using the shutdown option as then it would download the updates and then fail over and over again.
    None of the steps helped however they set me on a path. I uninstalled all unwanted programs but that was not what fixed the issue. I noticed other than Office 2007 I also had installed Word viewer 2007 , Excel viewer, Powerpoint viewer. I uninstalled these
    voila!! Windows update said I don't need these updates on which the install was failing, I checked for updates again and the above updates never appeared in the list of updates found.
    I thought I will put this out there just incase someone else runs into similar situation as me. Good Luck.

    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.
