Can I Convert A Quickbooks For Windows File To The Mac To Quicken

Need to transfer data file from Quicken Mac to Quicken Windows.

Which Mac version You can convert from Windows to Mac but going the other way might not work.

Almost impossible to convert from Quicken Mac to Quicken Windows.

Suggest you search on this forum for advice in doing so.but its not pretty, at all.

In Quicken for Mac, you would need to do a FileExportQuicken Windows Transfer File (QXF): Save this file on your Desktop or somewhere where you can find it.

On the Windows side: Click on File File Import Quicken Transfer format (.QXF) file Let us know if you have any issues.

Nice comment.nice methodology.

But Harold, if youve even read any of the comments on here regarding converting from Quicken Mac to Quicken Windows, youd notice that what you proposed doesnt work.

And if you get any semblance of it to work, transfers are horrendously messed up as are any investment transactions.

Go ahead.do what you propose.but dont expect ANY reasonable conversion that wont require days of making adjustments and corrections.

And every superuser on this forum will tell you that it doesnt work.

GOOD LUCK Reasonable expectations need to be set on this.This process has been documented to be broken since QW2013, though apparently there has been some minor improvement in QW2018.

That said, the biggest problem is that categorization of transactions get woefully messed up beyond reasonable recovery in MOST cases, with other related issues.

Of course, the proof is in the pudding, so you can simply try it, and if it fails, you can always return the product within the 30-day money-back guarantee period, if it applies.

Id be more curious to see how he got this to work easy peasy.

Personally, Id rather just start over from a specific date (now January 1, 2018 would be a nice starting point) than try to get this to work.
