Hi all - lots of questions.
Anyone still using Quicken 2014 software that resides on your computer?
Do I remember that the 2014 is the "last" version that resides on the computer and then at some point Quicken changed to subscription / online only? OR is there another later version of Quicken that resides on the computer?
We've been using Quicken 2014 with Codeweaver's CrossOver v.20.0.4 software (also an older version) that lets me run the Windows version of Quicken on a Mac Mini.
(I'm tech support, he does the entries and reconciling for Quicken, I do the reports and pretty charts - LOL).
But now the 2023 TurboTax (version that resides on a computer) won't work unless I upgrade from Big Sur (I know, I hate change).
The current MacOS is Sonoma. Unfortunately, I upgraded to Sonoma, only to find that Quicken wouldn't launch.
I emailed with the CrossOver folks who are very responsive. They say the CrossOver v.23 and v.24 are the only ones that work with Sonoma but evidently they don't run Quicken 2014 well. And the CrossOver guy also stated he wished he had stuck with HIS Quicken 2014... LOL...!
We have Quicken data since 1996...!
We have very slow internet (talking hotspots). For that and other reasons, online software does not appeal.
So - what are our choices and what advice might you have?
1. I could revert to a Mac Mini backup from earlier today (undoing the MacOS update), keep Quicken 2014 and then run Turbo Tax on a Macbook Air. But keeping an old MacOS may not work forever.
2. I could dedicate a PC laptop to Quicken 2014 and somehow hook it up to the monitor. Do ya think I could get a longer life out of Quicken 2014 this way? Do you think it will run on Windows 11 ?
Appreciate any suggestions!
P.S. Quicken 2014 gets a little glitchy sometimes. Do you think that is due to the volume of entries because we have data since 1996?
