I'm using Quicken 2007 on my mac

I'm looking to easiest way to update from 32 bit to 64 bit? Will I need to purchase a new program? Thanks for the help

There are two options:

1. Purchase and convert to the current version of Quicken for Mac, or

2. Run an older version (than Catalina) in a virtual environment such as Parallels Toolbox or VMware Fusion and then run QM2007 within that:

Unless there are some things that you really can't live without in QM2007, I would recommend #1.

I will add that there are significant differences between QM2007 and the current version. I transitioned 3 years ago, have had not missed the old version and like the new one better. Some folks, however, rely on features in the QM07 that aren't in the current version, so your mileage may vary. There is a 30 day money back guarantee on Quicken subscription, so you can try it out and see how it will work for you.
