File Conversion and Backup (Mac)
I have an old Quicken for Mac 2007 data file that I need to open without a Mac.
AlanBob
Does anybody provide a service to convert old data files so they can be read by current versions of Quicken?

If you want QWin to read QMac data that is from 2007 or earlier, you need QMac of that era as QWin cannot read the data directly. The data has to be exported from QMac data into QIF then imported into QWin, and it may also require some data clean-up BEFORE the export.
So, without a Mac, you will not be able to view this old data.

By "current versions of Quicken" do you mean current versions of QWin?
Because current versions of QMac can already read QM2007 data files.

I don't have a Mac any more. And I've been told just now that the data files predate QM2007, so they may be QM2005 or 2004 if there were such versions.

Thank you. I'm trying to find out if there's anyplace online that I could send the files for conversion. I'm also willing to buy an old Mac and Quicken 2004 because there's a fairly significant amount of money at stake.
