"Quit" bug in Macintosh 2006 and 2007 [Posted on 2006-08-23]
With the release of Macintosh 2006, a bug appeared in the key-stroke combination for "Quit." Frankly, it wouldn't quit unless the menu bar was used. I reported this to Quicken, but to no avail. It was not even acknowledged, so I accepted it. It will quit sporadically, but it appears to act as it should for at least a cycle after a check register entry.
Well, I assume the "bug" was extinguished from Quicken 2007-Macintosh, but it is not. Another user has noted this and I feel vindicated! One Quicken representative admitted that he has seen this issue.
This evening a female technical representative called and made an unsupported claim that "John" probably did not understand my allegation despite my email archive. Once again, we went through all the gyrations, but with the same results. That "quit" bug still exists.
I want to touch base with any Mac users with the same experience. Help would be appreciated!

A very poor product destined for the bin... I do not recommend it...
Waste of Time and Money [Posted on 2007-03-03]
I bought Quicken 2006 and TurboTax 2005 last year to help with my tax preparation (both versions for Mac). After wasting a year entering my finances into Quicken (it won't automatically sync with my bank, HSBC, and the import function is buggy and useless), I discovered that I cannot export information into TurboTax, which is made by the same horrible company, because TurboTax will only accept a file format that Quicken cannot produce.
A total, frustrating waste of time and money. The registration process does not work. The software does not work. The functions that would make you buy the software do not work. Every step of the process is a disaster. Save yourself the hassle and the cash.
Why can't there be 0 stars? [Posted on 2007-03-03]
I just switched over to the Mac after years on the PC. I own Quicken 2006 for Home and Business for the PC. I also happened to notice that Quicken for the Mac came preinstalled and I thought I would try it out. So I have the product, it was free, and it is terrible.
Quite frankly it DOES NOT WORK. It crashes, refuses to quit unless you Force Quit, and most banks do not support it. That's because Intuit cripples the support and forces banks to buy a "Mac" version of QFX. There is no reason why they need to do this and if you look around the Internet you can find scripts that convert PC QFX files to Mac QFX files.
If you need Quicken, use Boot Camp or Parallels to run Windows and buy the Windows version of Quicken. That software actually works.
Run away.
Great Application [Posted on 2007-03-11]
We have been using Quicken since 1993 to track our personal income, expenses and investments. Currently using Quicken 2006. The application is very stable (never had a crash) and free of bugs. Each revision has added many useful tools. The learning curve is not too steep but, as with any application that does a lot, one has to expect to acquire knowledge of its use. We highly recommend it.
