I have one data file on Windows computer and will convert it to Mac. Then I want to move that converted data file to my mac. I already have one data file on the mac and with this other data file converted to Mac add it so that I can have both data files on the same Mac computer. I understand that I will only use one data file at a time and will have to select which data file to use based on which data file I want to use.

    Just be aware, as mentioned above - that depending upon which features you used in the Windows version, those exact same features or data elements may not exist in the Mac version.  But, since you already are using the Mac version, you may already know of the differences.

    Just give them different names.   Are the same name?   Save the Windows data with another name before converting.

    The data files are different names. What are the steps to move the converted windows to mac data file onto my mac?

    Thanks so much that is exactly what I needed. My quicken version of windows is the most current and so is my mac. So I am ok for the conversion. Looks like an easy conversion and move over based on your instructions. Can't thank you enough.
