Quicken Mac crashes repeatedly after version 8.0 update

FYI - Just installed and had to uninstall twice the new Quicken for Mac update. It causes crashes with any entry into the register.

    @Jordbarnet I'm not experiencing this issue; I haven't had any crashes yet with version 8.0. Just to gather some data…

    • What version of macOS are you running?
    • Do you have any Quicken windows open in addition to the main window?
    • Does the crash occur when you select New Transaction or when you enter the fields in a transaction and press Return to save it?
    • When the crash occurs, do you subsequently get a macOS crash report, and have you selected to send the crash report?

    Mac Version 15.2 (24C101)

    No quicken windows open other than main window

    Crash occurs when entering a new transaction. into the fields and pressing return to save it.

    I haven't sent the crash report….I have deleted and reinstalled quicken repeatedly. Old version version 7.10.1 works fine. It is only with the upgrade and the data file (which is huge) being upgraded that this repeatedly occurs

    Also, fyi - I've deleted my prior version of quicken, gone into the library, deleted the application support files for quicken, and rinstalled quicken followed by the upgrade to version 8. The same crash occurs again and again…..

    Seems like it only crashes when I use tab off the Payee field. If I select the payee from the drop down and then click off the row, it doesn't crash.

    Narrowing it down further, if I removed the business column, then use tab from the payee field, it doesn't crash.

    So….in case anyone else runs into this problem, an engineer from Quicken figured out what is going on.

    I had a business account that, inadvertently, was created (other than the one I use). This business account didn't have a name assigned. The solution to solving the problem was to go to the tab for businesses and delete the unnamed business account. From that point forward, everything is working.

    I hope this helps anyone who encounters the problem I had, saves them time, and aids in an easy update. My thanks to the engineer from Quicken who helped me!
