Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)After many years with Windows, I have purchased an iMac. I needed to migrate years of Quicken data from Windows, so I bought Quicken for the Mac. The software installed easily and I followed the directions for migrating the data. However, when I brought up the data on the Mac, it was hopelessly scrambled. History and balances were completely useless. Individual transactions -- even simple ones from the checking account -- were duplicated, triplicated, or worse. I reread the directions, tried a second time and got the same results. I called Quicken technical support and confirmed that I used the right procedures. Quicken admitted that this was a problem and that the only way to fix it was to go in and manually delete all the duplicated items. Looking at thousands of transactions and having no confidence that, after all that work, I would have usable data, I gave up, deleted the migrated file, uninstalled Quicken and sent it back for a refund (which I am still waiting for). I considered running Quicken for Windows to a certain date, then starting Quicken for Mac at that point as a blank slate, but then the data would be split between two locations and there would be no continuous history. So now I need to keep my old Windows PC going for the sole purpose of running Quicken forever (with occasional upgrades) and having reliable financial history. The only way out would be if a future version of Quicken for Mac was capable of seamlessly migrating data from Windows. In the meantime, the current version is absolutely worthless to me because of this migration issue.
