Mac version vs PC version

Question

I purchased the Mac version of a Quicken subscription.  I installed on my mac, and the mobile app on my ios devices.  I can also use the Quicken on the Web version on my PC at work.

My question is, can I download the full PC version and access it with the single subscription on both PC and Mac or is the full version limited to the subscription platform I purchase

Your subscription allows you to download an install both the Mac and Windows versions and install them on as many computers as you want. However -- and this is a huge "but" -- Quicken Mac and Quicken Windows are not interoperable. That is, you can't use the same data file across the two platforms. There is a one-way transfer from Quicken Windows to Quicken Mac, but there is not a functional way to go the other way.

So if you wanted to do your personal finances on a Mac a home, and keep the books for a non-profit organization for which you're treasurer on a Windows computer at work, yes you can do this with one subscription. But if you're hoping to use a Mac at home and a Windows computer at work for your personal finances, you can't do that. You'd need to choose the platform you want to be your main base, and then use the web interface to access a more limited version of your information from the other computer.
