Issue converting Quicken Mac 2007 to both Quicken Mac 2017 and 2020.
I have rebuilt the file and save as copy before attempting to import QM 2007 to both QM 2017 & QM 2020. During the conversion, the Quicken app quits. When I open the new file all the accounts are listed. All but the investment accounts have the correct balance. When I view the Security List only one of my securities has imported. All the securities, the number of shares, pricing, and transactions are missing. Something is making the app crash when imported the security data. Support said that data is imported last.
Does anyone have an idea of what I can check, edit or clean up that would cause this crash and stopping the import and completions of the conversions?

Hi, Mike:
The conversions into the newer versions of Quicken for Mac are usually solid. I don't think there is a magic fix here, but my gut feeling is that problems in your 2007 file are what is causing the converter to bow up.
Rebuilding and Saving a copy are the usual fix, but you have already tried that. If it were I, I would go back to 2007 and export the file to QIF and reimport back into a new file in 2007. I can't run 2007 anymore, but I believe it will strip out some price history, but that might be the source of your problem. (You can always rebuild if necessary.)
Then, try importing that newly created file into 2020.
