What I would like to do is get as new a version as possible for my new computer, put my old version on a thumb drive, and have the the data transferred to the new version. It doesn't say if it is for PC or Mac, but I assume the Apple store might have needed to convert to Quicken for Mac in order to transfer the app and all the data from my PC back in 2008. When I click on "about Quicken" it reads version 16.0, 7/20/06, modified 11/20/08. My current 2007 was transferred from my PC to a Mac in 2008.
#QUICKEN 2007 FOR MAC LION UPGRADE#
Since this is on an old computer (2008 Macbook) which could just stop working some day, I would like to upgrade to a more current quicken version on my newer computer. I am currently running Q 2007 version 16.0 on Mac Snow leopard.

It remains to be seen, however, whether Intuit has moved quickly enough for many users.I know this has been covered many times in many articles, but I have not found a solution that addresses the specifics of my situation. Quicken is clearly hoping to win back some of those lost customers and keep others from defecting to competing products with a reinvestment in the Quicken for Mac platform, beginning with getting Quicken 2007 up and running on Lion machines. With that dilemma in mind, many customers have already dropped their usage of Quicken and migrated to competing products such as iBank or (now owned by Intuit), although each solution offers a slightly different set of tools that may or may not be suitable for a given user's needs. The new version was widely panned by reviewers for its considerable loss of functionality compared to Quicken 2007.Ĭonsequently, many Quicken owners continued use the 2007 version, but with Lion's dropping of support for the Rosetta framework needed to run Quicken 2007, users have had to decide between upgrading to Lion or abandoning Quicken 2007. Quicken 2007 was a popular personal financial management application for Mac, but instead of building upon the popular application Intuit elected to rebuild the application as a stripped-down Quicken Essentials for Mac. Intuit is also reassuring customers that it has increased the size of its Mac development team as part of a renewed effort to support the platform. There are still details to be worked out, so I ask your continued patience as we work through these. I am happy to announce that we will have a solution that makes Quicken 2007 for Mac "Lion-compatible" by early spring. I understand the frustration this may have caused you and have put a team in place to address this issue.

We noted earlier this year that Intuit was looking for a way to make Quicken 2007 compatible with Lion following Apple's discontinuation of Rosetta support for PowerPC-based applications like Quicken.Īccording to today's email and a newly-posted FAQ, Intuit is now promising that a Lion-compatible version of Quicken 2007 will be available by "early spring".Īs you may know, Quicken for Mac 2007 does not currently work on Apple's latest operating system, Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion).
