 Quicken 2007 Mac is Crash King... October 19, 2006
28 out of 28 found this review helpful
I just got my copy from Amazon yesterday. Installed it in my MacBook Pro to upgrade from Quicken 2002. The result was a disaster. Luckily I have backups.
Quicken 2007 crashed with almost anything I try to use. Bring up account list crash... clck the Insight button crash... even quitting will crash.
There is nothing I can do with this program. Just pitiful. I have never use any program so buggy in my life. It cost $24.95 to talk to a support person. Intuit should be ashame to release such a program. They have a 60 day refund policy, guess I'll make use of it.
Not worth the upgrade October 18, 2006

The ONLY reason I upgrade is because of the loss of online support after so many years. There is no major improvements and running on Intel Mac is a new set of problems. After Apple made Quicken the company it is, they left Apple to rot with Quick Books. Try MYOB they supported Mac when Quicken left the building.
I upgrade only when I'm forced... August 31, 2006

Another year's worth of eye candy from Intuit, with no substantive changes.
Quicken for the Mac still doesn't know how to handle a brokerage account that lets you write checks off your cash balance (e.g., E*Trade) without forcing you to split the account into two ledgers that you have to relate manually (Quicken for Windows had this feature eight years ago!). My financial institutions (e.g., Fidelity) that used to say "online features not compatible with Quicken for the Mac" still aren't compatible with Quicken for the Mac. And it still refuses to remember where on the screen I left my windows.
Meanwhile, the changes they do make are fluff. I've always been able to schedule bills and payments in Quicken, why would I even want to involve iCal now?
If it weren't for Intuit's practice of arbitrarily discontinuing all online connectivity for old versions of Quicken when they reach a certain age, I'd never upgrade at all. I haven't seen anything actually USEFUL in a Quicken Upgrade in the past five years.
Just as buggy as the last version August 23, 2006

I slammed Q2006 pretty hard. You'd think I'd lean and stop upgrading. One hopes old bugs are fixed. NOT. Many of the Q2006 bugs remain and some new ones are here as well.
Accessing On an Intel iMac, using command L or accessing the category list crashes Quicken every time. But the same data file on a PowerPC Powerbook runs fine. Also, changing an existing catagory on the iMac pops a dialog "Unable to Save Memorized Transaction" (again, not on the Powerbook). When attempting to rebuild the file (option/command B), I get the error "Unable to Save Category". If I open an older Quicken file it updates for Q7 and produces the SAME errors. Apparently this is an Intel issue as I can't replicate it on a non Intel machine.
Windows can't seem to recall positions between relaunches (how easy is that?). This product is a mess. I sent the above bug report to Intuit a few minutes ago, lets see if they get back to me with a fix. This company has the WORST beta testers and Q&E on the planet. Bad enough it's not Intel Native but I'm pretty darn sure I found a bug that is only showing up on Intel Macs. Or maybe I'm just unlucky.
Not worth it. August 18, 2006

Once again, Intuit is asking Mac users to pay MORE for less. Quicken 2007 has fewer features than the Windows version, a much less sophistacted interface, gives the user far less information. All this for a much higher price tag. Other software companies give you comparable versions at the same price. Hopefully somebody will develop competitive financial software that will give Intuit a run for its $$$.
