    I'm sorry to tell you that you've got a major problem. The mobile app you use on the iPad is a supporting application which holds a subset of your complete data; it is always tied to a desktop Quicken data file. There is, unfortunately, no way tot create a new desktop data file from the data in Quicken cloud (mobile app). To my knowledge, there is no path forward if you no longer have any version of the desktop (Mac) data file.
