This is going to be a short post, but given the attention and page views that my posts on Quicken 2007 received, I thought this update worthwhile. Previous Posts. Quicken 2007 for Mac OS X Lion Arrives Last week, Intuit announced the availability of an anachronism: Quicken 2007 for Mac OS X Lion. It sounds odd at first, given that we should really be talking about Quicken 2013 right about now, but it’s not a misprint.
This is Quicken 2007, magically enabled to actually load and run on Mac OS X Lion. It’s like Intuit cloned a Wooly Mammoth, and put it in the New York Zoo. The good news is that the software works as advertised. I have a huge file, with data going back to 1994.
As promised, Intuit today released a $15 update for Quicken Mac 2007 that makes it compatible with OS X 10.7 Lion. The update is intended for existing Quicken for Mac customers who want to use the.
However, not only did it operate on the file seamlessly, the speed improvement over running it on a Mac Mini running Mac OS X Snow Leopard is significant. Granted, my 8-core iMac likely explains that difference (and more), but the end result is the same. There are small bugs. For example, some dialogs seems to have lost the ability to resize, or columns cannot be modified.
But very small issues. Where is it, anyway? Adam Nash EIR @ Greylock Partners. Previously Wealthfront, LinkedIn, eBay, Apple. Inevitably optimistic.

Intuit recently announced that it plans to release an update to Quicken 2007 that will make it compatible with Mac OS X 10.7, aka Lion. This news is a big relief to a number of my clients who have intentionally held off on updating to Lion. Those clients use Quicken 2007 and migrating to another application is not a simple task.
IBank and Quicken Essentials are two applications that users could consider as a replacement, but an update to Quicken 2007 simplifies the entire situation. Update: Intuit released a Lion-compatible update of Quicken 2007. Quicken 2007 can import data files from Quicken 2005-2007 as well as Quicken Essentials. When Lion was released in July 2011, Tidbits had an article talking about. One colleague switched to iBank but due to differences in how iBank handles investment accounts, he spent many hours cleaning up his Quicken data after it was imported into iBank and needed assistance repeatedly from iBank’s tech support staff. A few of my clients who used only the account registers and reporting features in Quicken were able to use Quicken Essentials. Quicken Essentials for Mac was released in 2010.
It is not really an update for Quicken 2007 users. Instead, you could think of it as a successor to Quicken 2007, but one that lacks some of Quicken 2007’s features. As its name implies, it is a bare-bones financial management application. It is enough for some, but not for all, Quicken 2007 users. Thus, the announcement of this Quicken 2007 update is welcome news.
Intuit indicates that this Lion-compatible update will be available “soon.” Elsewhere, I’ve read that it’ll be early-spring 2012. Users will be able to update their Quicken 2005, 2006 and 2007 data files into this updated version of Quicken 2007. Please read if you’d like more information. Update October 2014: Quicken has recently introduced Quicken 2015 for Mac, which brought back some of the features left off in Quicken Essentials. About the new changes.
