I said a silent prayer as I prepared to open the Word document using OpenOffice. It alerted me to the Apache OpenOffice website where I downloaded OO 3.4.1. I never take tekkie support from public spirited people like yourself for granted! The discussion thread you suggested was the charm. Your Mac type as well when it was made will be displayed. Not sure which Mac you have? If you are running Lion, click the Apple icon at the top left of your screen, choose ‘About This Mac’, then click More Info. ▪ MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) The following models will be able to run Mountain Lion: Here are a few things you can do to get ready for Mountain Lion.įirst of all, make sure that your Mac will be able to run Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion will be available for download from the Mac App Store for $19.99. Apple had earlier announced in June that Mountain Lion would be available in July and July is starting to run out of days. I like Quicken and am happy that I don't have to try to learn another program.At this Tuesday’s earnings call, Apple is expected to announce that the latest version of Mac OS X, Mountain Lion, will be released on the following day. I tried to use a couple of other programs but they were so hard to get used to. I read so many bad reviews about Quicken, but I have never had any problems with it and have been using it since 2000. I think to avoid any problems, just in case running them on the older iMac was the difference, I am going to transfer the files to the iMac and open and add some transactions and then save and then move them to his computer with 2007 on it. Now I have to do the same thing for my husbands Quicken files. I only do my checkbook, no reports, etc., etc. Now that being said I do not use any of the other options with Quicken. When it asked me where to get the files from I pointed it to the last back up in the 2005 folder. Not sure if that made a difference or not, but today after I purchased and downloaded Quicken 2007 all I did was move the whole folder with 2005 in it to my MacBook and opened 2007.

Also because I couldn't run Quicken2005 on my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion I had copied over to my older iMac and was using Quicken there for about 2 days.

Ok so I went to the link that I posted when I found the $15 software and it says that you can import from Quicken2005. 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.

Then when you upgrade to Mountain Lion, your data file will open normally with Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mountain 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!)Ĭonsequently, 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: 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. Quicken 2007 (either version) will ONLY accept data from Quicken 2006 or 2007. Hopefully you have not updated to Mountain Lion, YET! The former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of California (now deceased) once told me there are no dumb questions only dumb answers! Sorry to be dumb, but I want to make sure I do this right.

Quicken Essentials is severly hobbled, and virtually no one recommends its use on the Mac (except for those compensated by Intuit).

If you need to update data from previous versions, such as I did when upgrading from Quicken Deluxe 2002, you must obtain a copy of the PowerPC version of either Quicken 2006 or Quicken 2007 (post a request with Ferd at: use-on-mac-os-10-7-lion/), and FIRST run it on a computer capable of running a PPC application (that is a computer that has Rosetta installed) with your old data file.Īfter Quicken 2006/2007 PPC has updated your data, you can now access your data directly with Quicken 2007 for Lion in either Lion or Mountain Lion.

It costs $15 and works directly with data from Quicken 2005, 20. You do not need any version of Quicken previously installed on your computer for it to properly function.

"Quicken 2007 for Lion" which now is updated for Mountain Lion, is a full fledged rewrite of Quicken 2007 to run on the Intel CPUs that Macs have used since 2006.
