Upgrade Mac 07 to 2019

I have a 2007 Mac version of Quicken. I use it solely for record keeping on my computer. I do not do online stuff with Quicken. I would guess I am way over due for an upgrade and would like to know the best way to upgrade and what to do. I have a mac desk top computer. Thank you Blaine Bolton

As long as you have macOS 10.11 (El Capitan) or higher, the current version of QM2019 will read your QM2007 data directly. That said, just be aware that QM2019 is NOT an upgrade from QM2007 but a migration... QM2019 is a new Quicken for Mac product rebuilt from the ground up (built on QEM from 2010) so it still lacks features that exist in QM2007. So be sure to understand if it will meet your needs. You can read a lot more about the differences here:

At the same time, be aware of the potential that QM2007 will not work with the next version of macOS 10.15(?) when it comes out in the Fall of 2019 when Apple is supposed to drop support of 32-bit apps (which QM2007 is).

Last March 26 I purchased a 2 year subscription to Quicken. When I tried to import my data from Quicken 2007 an error message said that it was not possible to import from Quicken 2007. So I went back to Quicken 2007 and have used that since. Does anyone know if this problem was fixed? Can I now import from Quicken 2007? I use Quicken only for manually keeping track of checking, cash, and credit card accounts. I don't use it online at all. Thanks. MacBook Pro Mid-2018 15 inch

dick we would need more info about the issues you ran into. QMac has worked well for many to import QM2007 data, though not for all. If you have details about the issues you encountered, please start a new thread and maybe some of us may be able to direct or assist you. Meanwhile, also read my other reply here:

I have Quicken 2007 (Quicken for mac 16.1.4). Is that the same as Quicken 2016? It's confusing. There are options to import from Quicken 2007 and Quicken 2016.

No QM2007 is the old legacy version of QMac. The way to start is to select File > New where you will choose to "Start with a Quicken 2007 file":
