This is a just. check register and home accounts tool NOT A SMALL BUSINESS TOOL.
and nothing else. I want a BOOKEEPING Program...will have to get another I guess... FOR Any of you who used Quicken 2007 with Full List of Accounts both Asset and Liability please share if you know of one. Guess I will just have to print out all the reports I can before Apple goes to 64 bit.

    BTW, when Apple moves to 64 bit, there are several choices (some even before): 
    • One is to not upgrade the macOS. You should be able to not have to upgrade for a few years before other software stops to be compatible with Mojave. 
    • Another is install a virtual machine (VM). This is not for everyone and requires a little bit of technical know-how. But if you (or someone else for you) can set this up, you can run QM2007 isolated on Mojave (or older) running in the VM, then you will be able to upgrade macOS on the computer. There are popular choices like Parallels, VMWare Fusion, and Oracle VirtualBox (free). (If you do try this, please share any experience with others in this thread: Share your experience running QM2007 in a Virtual Machine (VM)
    • Another is to try to upgrade to QM2019 again. Have you tried re-indexing your QM2007 data file? All you have to do is press CMD-OPT-B to trigger the re-indexing (be sure to have backup copies of your data file before). Once done, you can try importing the file again.
    • Another is to use the "File > Save a copy" function in QM2007 to create a copy of you data file. If successful, this process will create a new file with all your data, cleaning up some of the internals. Then you can try importing the duplicate file into QM2019.

    Meanwhile, you can add your VOTE to Balance Sheet (aka Net Worth aka Accounts Summary) type report and Income Statement (Income vs Expenses) aka Cash Flow aka Profit & Loss (P&L) type report.

    OH THANK. YOU ALL ... Especially smayer97 .... YES RE INDEXING someone gave me that tool years ago but I forgot new password I used yesterday...

    TY so much and I will go vote as soon as I catch up.
    THANKS to everyone … I hope I have a plan… When I tried to import data from 2007 yesterday it was using a back up made on High Sierra .. I now have QMAC2007 on my Mac Mini and will use for a while then try to upload into 19 again.

    When it ran yesterday it went through the Anti Corruption Fixing Indexes and Headers panels so I thought it would would work,
    but it didn’t. Nothing was there but my bank balances, which linked very nicely… ..

    THANKS for all the help now I am at least Optimistic I can get Quicken up and going.

    I remember the last time I only had a Corrupted file… I did get help from Quicken that fixed it well enough to reload and start using.
    AND THERE IT IS FROM smayer97
    REIndexing! .. Shortcut... I know I used it 3 or 4 times in the (distant) past.

    THANKS AGAIN.. YES smayer I see about a VOTE will do that soon too.

    No  one EVER claimed that  QMac was business  software.  Only QWin has a business product ... and it's limited.  QMac and most versions  of QWin  are "Personal Financial Software" ... note the  PERSONAL.
    Have you looked at Quickbooks, which  offers both a Mac and an Online  product? https://www.intuit.com/

    Quicken  Mac 2007 has Income Statement and Balance Sheet reports. Many people used it to manage books for small organizations.

    Quicken 2019 lacks these reports.

    Your post is hard to understand. I'm not sure why you're complaining about reports in Quicken 2019 while at the same time complaining you have no data in your Quicken 2019.

    Quicken 2007, and Quicken 2007 data files, work fine on macOS up through Mojave. Quicken 2019 imports Quicken 2007 data files. So what is not working for you? (I suggest you start a separate thread, with appropriate headline, if you want help with importing data from Quicken 2007 to Quicken 2019.)

    Nonetheless, Quicken 2007 Mac had the reports the OP asked about. Quicken 2019 doesn't. OP is trying to replicate what was doable in Quicken 2007, nothing more. The answer, in this case, is that Quicken 2019 offers less in the way of reports at the current time.

    QMAC19 is AMAZING TRULY AMAZING ... It has every entry I have made since 1991!
    I had to fake some Investment transactions as of 1994 when I first started doing them manually to get actual CASH balance right....
    But now those accounts are wn $200 each... and had to find PORTFOLIO view and its there and you can keep actual columns you use... .
    and now with it using actual CHECKING and Credit Balances from my bank! No more need to Reconcile (Just Remember when you HIDE closed accounts where to find them again..Heck I had 10 cars on my list some I don't even remember!
    WILL go back and review Report VOTE question. but since I am a NEWBIE here I don't think I can vote. Didn't see any small grey triangle near or question ..
    THANKS AGAIN for all who helped get me UP and RUNNING and I guess I should do a 'YELP' or other REC ... to let folks know.
    LET ME KNOW WHERE PREFERRED PLACE is to do that.
