I just hope they make the Mac version usable. If it wasn't for the shoddiness of Mac Quicken, I wouldn't have to run Windows emulation software. I've replaced all my other Windows programs.

100% agree. I also would like to see the mac version be able to import data from the Windows version as easily as Microsoft Money can import Quicken data.

It is just ridiculous when a competitor can import Quicken data better than Intuit can.

I'd agree except I've found that MS Money can't import Quicken data, at least not completely and accurately. It's not alone, Gnucash and MoneyDance can't import it, either. Maybe a single checking account would import alright but if you have multiple accounts the import just doesn't work, at least for my accounts....

In my experience, MS Money does a much, much better job at importing Quicken for Windows data than Quicken for Mac does.

Much, much, much better. And the reality is, that Quicken for Mac's import of Quicken for Windows' data should not even be a notable concern. The fact that it is basically a no-go is incredible.

I really don't understand it but from what I know of software and computers, I can't see any reason at all that MS Money for Windows OR Mac, Gnucash, MoneyDance can't import Quicken data accurately and with no problems, also vice versa but the fact is they can't.

If the Quicken data file is a known format (and it is) it should be easy to import. Turbo Tax imports data and so does Tax Cut which isn't an Intuit product so it's puzzling to me but we're not going to fix it, all we can do is continue to push the software people for improvement.
