I am trying to migrate from one mac to another. Quicken 2020.

I tred backup / restore and export / import but Quicken on the new Mac does not recognize the files as what it expects.

How do I do this?

Thank you

I figured it out. I just took the quicken file, moved it to the new computer and opened it. So simple it did not occur to me.

thanks for your help.

@scottthompson135  Going forward, you should only move either a backup file or a compressed copy of the file (in the Finder, File > Compress) of your data file between computers. Unexpected and sometimes fatal file access problems can pop up if you move and uncompressed file between computers.
