Better, of course, would be for Intuit to hire more Mac programmers and have them build an Intel-native version of Quicken. I don’t think they’ll be able to do that, but if they do it would be a slick solution. Actually, there is a tiny bit of hope: Intuit might try buying or licensing Rosetta and folding it into Quicken itself. Quick Books might work with Lion (at least it’s Intel-native, so there’s hope). (If you’re using an older version of Quicken you will have to upgrade to Quicken 2006 at least before moving to Essentials. If you’re using Quicken 2006, or 2007 on a Mac, and you really want to run Lion, spend the money and get a copy of Essentials and see how you like it– BEFORE installing Lion. Intuit will sell you a copy of Quicken Essentials, which WILL run on Lion, for $24.99 (half-off) if you use this link. The reports aren’t as good in Essentials either. Essentials can’t pay bills online, and it can’t track investment activity (though it does show you how much each investment is worth). But, most people use the “real” Quicken, because Quicken does more than Quicken Essentials does. If you’re already using “Quicken Essentials” you’ll be OK– Quicken Essentials is Intel-native. Intuit has a very poor track record when it comes to listening to customer feedback regarding their Macintosh products and I would not expect them to change their tune now. In fact, it’s so easy that a lot of people have gotten mad and said that already. It’s easy to get mad at Intuit (Quicken’s publisher) and say they should have built an Intel-native Quicken by now (five years after Apple announced the switch to Intel chips). You can read all about it here, straight from Quicken’s support web site. What it means is you will not be able to use Quicken on a Mac running Lion.

Apple provides software called Rosetta which translates PPC programs into something the Intel Macs can use, but it slows everything down and while it’s available in every version of Mac OS X from 10.0 to 10.6, Apple is leaving it out of Lion. Instead, it’s written for the older PowerPC chip (PPC).
After all these years (five of them), Quicken is still not Intel-native. It might be better if you don’t, because you might not be able to use some of the software you’re used to using.
#QUICKEN 2007 UPGRADE FOR MAC DOWNLOAD#
If you are on 10.6.8 you’ll be able to download it in a few weeks for $29.
Mac OS X 10.7, otherwise known as “Lion”, is coming soon. By the way, you will not find any new features in this version, unless you call “functional” a new feature. They want $14.99 for the download but if you want to run Quicken on a Mac with OS X Lion (or a later system) you have no choice. I managed to find the link for you: click here. Unfortunately, they do not provide a link or any information about how you go about getting the Lion-compatible version. If you realize the import didn't include all of your information from Quicken®, such as the date range or accounts to export was not set correctly during the export, then it would be best to start over and redo the export and import it into a new file.UPDATE (March 8th, 2012): Intuit has built a Lion-compatible version of Quicken 2007! You can read all about it on their site, at this page. If desired, security prices can be set manually to match the exact prices in Quicken® for the comparison between the two programs. Not all programs export security prices to QIF files and the QIF file format is limited with regard to tracking investments. If there are any discrepancies, we recommend to check the more complex items such as investment accounts first. Our file importing feature is widely regarded as one of the best there is, but it can only as good as the information available in the QIF file.Īlthough we try to accommodate for as many of the errors in the exports of other programs as we can, many of them simply export information incorrectly or incompletely. Review the imported information for accuracy when compared to Quicken®.
