ask Google - they are quite good with info and videos - I'd like to know also - I'm finding Quicken for Mac rather complicated.

I upgraded from 2012 and only purchased it because it was on sale for 50% off. Otherwise I would have waited. As for any differences, the only thing I have found so far is the Quicken Cloud and the mobile app.

The Deluxe version definitely does, I just looked. I initially had Quicken Starter, but I never did a file import. ... because after I had it for a couple of weeks I received a great update offer from Quicken to the Deluxe version. I know this does not answer your question directly, but I can say this software package is incredible. I do a lot with the Deluxe version.

I do not have a MacBook Pro so I do not know the answer. I do know the Business software did not work on my PC. I could not download my information from last year. Description read that H&R Block software would easily import from Turbo Tax and Quicken software, however later I was told that was not true with the Business Program.

I bought Quicken 2013, but I did not use it because it would not load data from my 2001 Quicken. I bought the 2002 version instead and found it very satisfactory.

I am currently running the LC version of quicken on my Mac. The Mac version is lacking features. The way you do this is to install parallels desktop which is a program that allows you to install and run windows simultaneously with Mac OS. I am running windows 7. After installing windows you can install quicken and use your backed up file from windows on your Mac.

Yes. I converted to Quicken deluxe 2011 when MM was abandoned. Man I wish MM.....Anyway, this crappy program really is the next best thing out there and converts all your data without a hitch. I had 3 years worth of financial info that converted fine. The problem with this is the inconsistent crashes, inconsistent download errors from your bank (some days it works, others it doesn't) and other failures.

Unfortunately, I never used quickbooks, so I don't know the difference. I am just beginning to use quicken, as well.

I believe I asked the same question when I upgraded, and I was told by Apple that, yes, it is compatible. However, I've not really used the programs since I upgraded. If you're on a MAC, I suggest you call Apple. I don't know who you'd call on a PC.

I am sorry. This is the first time I've purchased Quicken, so I don't know if it is compatible with earlier versions.

I have not found another program that manages all my personal accounts, investment accounts and rental accounts accurately with little accounting background. I can download information from my financial institutions and then reconcile them. At tax time I can import the data directly and usually only have to review and add information and file my information.

Yes, but I am curious why you are interested in an older version of the program? DO NOT GET QUICKEN 2014 as its functionality is less than earlier versions. 12 may actually have been my fav. Attaching documents to my transactions is my issue. In earlier versions I could attach Checks or Invoices or Other. When I wanted to view an attachment I chose one of the 3 categories and picked my image. In 2014 there no longer seperate categories. You have to selec, then open, each individual image to find the one you need.

I doubt it...but....I would not even try. The software is no longer supported and it is obsolete. My on-line updating ceased on August 21, 2013. Best to move ahead...perhaps Quicken.

We are successfully using the latest version of Quicken Rental Property Manager with Windows 8. Beware, older versions of the program are still being sold and may, or may not, be compatible--I don't know.

I upgraded to MS Money 2007 a few years ago primarily because I was considering the new Quicken software. My thinking was that Quicken might not convert files from one of the older generation Money programs. After trying Quicken I was very dissatisfied with it and stayed with the Money 2007. Conversion of older version information was no problem. I use this software on two computers, one with XP and the other with Vista. Works fine on both and I email myself the backup file from one to the other each time I update on one or the other computer. Good thing, because I have noticed that on occasion Money 2007 reverts back to the new user state and I don't know why. The emailed file updates come in handy when this happens because I can do a file restore from the emailed copy of the saved file. I wish Microsoft would reconsider getting back into this market as they had a superior product. No Quicken fan.

It looks like it to me, as well. I've used the product for three years. It is not as robust as Quicken in terms of its reporting capabilities, but it's much more stable than Quicken and has an excellent interface. It's not like Quicken is even trying to serve the Mac OS, anyway. I would never switch back.

I was also a very long term quicken user, but i could not stand quicken's mac version after i switched to mac in 2007, & running a virtual windows machine just to run the windows version of quicken was just too much of a pain. i've been with ibank since version 3. it was miles better than mac's quicken & it gets better and better with each new release. it does function a bit differently than quicken so there will be a small learning curve, nothing drastic though. ibank5 is perhaps not as polished as the current windows version of quicken, but i am pretty sure from what i've read that there has been no great improvement of quicken's mac product. intuit is dropping the ball there. i'd say give ibank5 a shot, you likely won't regret it. i know i don't, not one bit.
