Quicken Mac 2007 file corrupt restore

Unknown
Member
I am one of those poor souls whose Quicken Mac 2007 data file AND the backup folder was in a document folder which was synced to iCloud. So one day, ALL versions including the backups corrupted and stopped working out of the blue. I got the dreaded "Unable to open file". Now. I've been through this website up and down and I'm aware of all proposed solutions. It doesn't work in any case, so I lost a lot of work.
So my quesion to you: ESPECIALLY Quicken works, Super users and past workers. Apart from any workarounds, is there any way to retrieve, rebuild or otherwise get the info back from this file? Can I send it to you and you magically can read it at the mothership? Doesn't even have to be the whole 8 year history, just the last year would be fine. If you know, please let me know and I'm happy to reasonably pay too.
Thanks

A couple things you could try:
1. Compress the file in the Finder (right click, Compress). Then move it to a different location, un-compress it (double click) and try to open that copy.
2. You can try to follow the instructions in the link below:

Like I mentioned, I'm aware of all this. Anybody who can open a corrupt file?

Hello Richard,
Sorry to hear that you're experiencing this difficulty.
The only way I have found to get these files open is to use Time Machine to find a copy of the file prior to the corruption.
Unfortunately, there aren't any other tools or applications that we have that can repair and open this file.
I apologize for not having better news.
