Upgrade quicken on a mac for mac#

The second and far more significant reason is that I’m not ready to upgrade my main Mac. Sadly, I never found anything that came close to meeting my needs.įast-forward 14 years and Intuit/Quicken was still a thorn in my side, as I ranted in an August, 2011 column: And trust me, since I had to import 10 or more years of financial data into each program for testing, I’d have been delighted to never open Quicken again. I know…but I tried at least a dozen programs over the years, and I didn’t find a single one that worked for me. * The complete column appears at the end of this one…īelieve it or not, I’ve been looking for a personal finance solution for the Mac since then. Like Howard Beale, the mad prophet of the airwaves in the movie Network, I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore. And you can bet that I won't shop and apply for mortgage and life insurance online at either. Furthermore, I will never visit their Web site, nor will I take advantage of their 'extended personal finance capabilities' at. I won't use MacInTax, even if they don't kill it next year. As soon as I find a replacement, I'm throwing out my copy of Quicken. I don't know about you, but I'm done with Intuit. Way back in May of 1998, when Apple was at the depths of the death knell era, Intuit abruptly discontinued Quicken for the Macintosh.

Intuit, as you probably know, has no love for Mac users.

I love managing my finances on my Mac, but I have never liked depending upon Intuit or its Quicken for Mac products.
