I just bought a new MacAir and now want to transfer my Windows Quicken 2018 Home and Business (version R12.8):
Question #1. What Quicken Mac program do I buy so my Windows Quicken data is compatible? There is no Quicken Mac Home & Business.
Question #2. If I were to buy Mac Deluxe would my Windows Quicken Home and Business be compatible and transfer.
I do understand I need to validate and repair my data file in Windows before I open it in my MacAir.

- edited November 2018None of the Home and Business-specific data would exist on the Mac, because the Mac program isn't built to hold that data. Your basic Quicken data -- your banking accounts and investments -- would all transfer to the Mac. But if you need the Home and Business features, you might be better off getting a program that lets you run Windows on your Mac, like Parallels. There are many Quicken Windows users running Quicken Windows in such a virtual machine inside their Mac while they wait and hope for the Mac version to reach parity with the Windows versions.
Also, you might find it best to try for yourself.

If you decide to migrate your data, you do need to convert. Since your data is from QW2010 or newer, the mechanics are quite simple..copy data file over to Mac. Open data file with QM2018. The built-in conversion process will step you through but there are a few things you need to know; here is the entire process:None of the Home and Business-specific data would exist on the Mac, because the Mac program isn't built to hold that data.

In your case, you can skip steps 1 and 2 but review all the prep and background info before:
https://www.quicken.com/support/things-do-converting-your-data-quicken-mac-2016
NOTE: Be aware that at this time, it is very difficult to convert back from Mac to Windows, as there are many problems with the reverse conversion process.
I also suggest that you make sure that Quicken 2019 for Mac will meet your needs, since it was re-written from the ground up (first with Quicken Essentials in 2010, then again with QM2015 onward) and is not the same product as the Windows version, so there are some features that are still not there e.g. full loan amortization*, 2-line display, QuickMath, or are not as fully developed yet, e.g. Customized Reports, some investment performance reports and stats (therefore some data may not carry over). You can start here:
http://www.quicken.com/mac/compare
https://www.quicken.com/whats-new-quicken
https://www.quicken.com/mac/upgrader-compare
*NOTE: Support for fixed rate loans has been released as of QM2017 v4.5.x but there is no announced timing for support for variable rate or simple daily interest loans.
You may want to review the List of Obstacles and Hindrances for Migrating from QM2007 or QWin to Quicken for Mac. Add your vote to any features that are missing for you. Your VOTES matter!
Be aware of data that will and will not carry forward:
https://www.quicken.com/support/what-data-gets-carried-over
(A couple more things to note: historical currency rates are not migrated AND currency conversions of transactions are not migrated).
Then look at the updates since the original release here:
https://www.quicken.com/support/2018-release-quicken-mac-release-notes
You will also want to look at a more detailed comparison done by a SuperUser which also identifies nuances not mentioned elsewhere (and read on for comments from other users too on that same discussion thread):
https://getsatisfaction.com/quickencommunity/topics/can-anyone-who-has-switched-from-2007-to-2015-he..
Take a look at the following videos to give you a better idea:
https://www.youtube.com/user/QuickenMac
Note that there are many differences that are rather subtle, that are not necessarily identifiable via documentation, for example, the 12-month budget feature does not allow including transfers, including investment income, selecting specific accounts, or have rollover capability.
As already stated, if you find that QM2019 does not meet your needs, the alternative is to run Quicken for Windows in a virtual machine on your Mac. There are 5 popular products you can use: Parallels, VMWare Fusion, Oracle VirtualBox, Bootcamp or CrossOver. The first 4 require you to also buy a copy of Windows. The first 2 cost $50-80, the third and forth are free. CrossOver also costs about $50-$80 but does NOT require you to buy Windows.
If you plan to keep your PC & Mac, you could also run Quicken on the PC and use remote access (several free options, e.g. NoMachine and Teamviewer) to access Quicken from your Mac (or even a tablet or phone) (see this great article for complete review of many options (most are free): http://machow2.com/rdp-for-mac/ ).

When Will Quicken Home And Business Be Available For Mac
On Nov 14th. 2018, I updated to Quicken Home & Business for Windows 2018 Canadian version (or rather 2019 as it turns out).
I noticed right after install, that I had categories,business bills, reminders, accounts issues, as well as navigating between reports was extremely slow. Spent a few days trying the usual workarounds with very limited success.
I called the help line and the only answer I got was: 'The Quicken file you imported must've been corrupted. Can't help you there.' which for me, as a long time Quicken user, is not impossible but very improbable. I had validated the old file before import.
Checked for possible last minutes updates but Quicken displayed I had the latest version (v. R12.xx).
As days went by, trying to address all issues, Quicken's performance was slower and slower to the point that switching from a screen to another would take about 2 minutes, spent on watching the blue circle of death happily dancing away.
Checked and rechecked Windows/Quicken settings, made sure I met the hardware/software requirements .. all good. I'm way beyond the basics.
Time for my second call. This time, the agent confirmed I had the latest version (R12.xx) and the only suggestion was to re-install Quicken.. waste a week of troubleshooting? not gonna happen!
It was only, out of frustration, while scouring help files/sites/forums that I discovered there was a patch for Quicken 2018/2019 Canadian, addressing my glitches. The patch was made available in Nov 2018 .. for Quicken's failure to update, among other problems! and once downloaded and installed, did improve performance and reliability.
As one can see version in R15.24 and Year 2019
My question is: How come, on 2 different occasions, was I given the runaround and useless suggestions, when the answer (or at least one significant solution) was at their availability.
Is it poor training or nobody cares?

- edited December 2018P.S. At least that is what I like to believe..
BTW R15.24 is the 'second patch' since 12.8. R14.16 came out earlier in November and your Quicken should have updated to that one automatically. R15.24 is new enough that I'm not sure if it is out of 'staged release mode' yet or not (not available for automatic update to more than a limited few).
R14.15 actually has only one line in the release notes:
Improved: User interface enhancements and bug fixes to improve the user experience.
But it in fact marks a BIG difference.
Ever since they changed from .Net 3.x to .Net 4.x in Quicken 2014, Quicken has had some nasty 'focus' and performance problems.
With that release they have gotten ride of a lot of the dependency on .Net, and as such it should perform much better in these core areas like keeping the right control focused when switch away from Quicken and back, size of the Window in maximized mode, and less 'flashing' and 'redrawing'. - edited December 2018Hi @ Moman1 ,

What are the specifications of the PC on which you are running Quicken?
Your data file may need compacting, which requires an additional procedure to performing a validation in isolation. Do this:- Make a copy of your Quicken data file using File-->File_Operations-->Copy. You must use this command to make the copy. Do not copy the file using any other method/command.
- Open the newly copied file.
- Run a file validation, selecting 'Rebuild Investing Lots' on the new file.
- If the validation finds any issues, go back to Step #1 and repeat (all using the new file).
- Once you have a clean validation (of the new file) use the new file going forward.

Been there, done that.
My point is, that regardless of the categories renaming issues and the likes which were addressed manually and new file validated (using the direct Quicken file validation process & with the method you mention above) with no issues/errors, Quicken behaved like a drunken sailor on happy hour.
Navigating between screens and accounts could take at time up to 2 minutes for a refresh.
Like QPW pointed above, there were 2 patches available in November. Why did my Quicken download on Nov 14th did not install at least the early Nov. one and why on 2 separate occasions did the phone agents identified my R12.xx version as the latest version.
I spent many hours trying this and that before I finally came across the R15.24 patch and as far as I can see, there was significant improvement in Quicken's behavior after patch install. Time will tell if this remains.
BTW, I also downloaded and installed the Canadian Mac version of Quicken 2019 (kudos to Quicken for that) with absolutely no issues other than automatic transactions download from my banking institution . Banking info is properly configured but the 'One Step Update' does not seem to finalize and import new transactions into Quicken.
Fortunately, I can manually download them directly from my bank and Quicken will 'import them' accurately in to the related accounts. Not a big deal but slightly annoying. Admittedly it could be a bank issue and not Quicken .. working on it .
As a note, my Quicken for Mac is still 2 - 3 times as fast as the Windows version and much more user friendly. The only reason I have the Windows version is that my professional tax software is strictly Windows based .. maybe some day (are you listening Trilogy software?)
All in all, Quicken is still my choice for financial software, being a user since day 1. Maybe with better (more knowledgeable) support this could have been resolved easily.. - edited December 2018
Hi @ Moman1 ,https://debtclever727.weebly.com/logitech-wireless-solar-keyboard-k750-for-mac.html. My previous version was Quicken 2013, which was validated and backed-up.Quicken 2018 was installed and the backup was then imported (restored) into Quicken 2018.
The way you answered, confused me.
Quicken uses both terms Import and restore and each has a different meaning.
Import means to Import Bank Web Connect Files. Or via One Step Update.
Restore means to Restore a Manual or Automatic Backup file.thecreator - User of Quicken Subscription R22.17 & Quicken 2017 HBRP R19.7

No, you wrote: ' the backup was then imported (restored) into Quicken 2018. '
Should have wrote, the Backup File was Restore to Quicken 2018.
What I would have simply stated? My Manual Backup was restored after updating Quicken.
I had a Quicken Update erase my Vault Passwords, so I simply Restored the last Manual Backup made, which fixed my problem.

runaround and useless suggestions, when the answer (or at least one
significant solution) was at their availability.
BTW what I read in my 'problem solver' mode is 'corrupted data file claimed by Quicken Support' (something they love to jump to because it gets them off the hook), terrible performance, nothing helps.
And in this case the 'fix' was actually 'wait until the developers fix it'.
And that is quite frustrating for us 'problem solvers'. - edited December 2018
@QPW: my understanding was that the update helped, but it sounded like their was still a residual performance issue.

I don't use imported term.
I have no control as to which term you use for a particular action. I guess the reason I used imported(restored) was in hope that most users would connect the related action. I suppose this could be debated until a new version of Quicken is available ..
Glad your backup restoration fixed your vault password issue. - edited December 2018
@Moman1: the odd thing is that you and I use the same version(s) of Quicken Windows and I didn't encounter any material performance issues. I'm running Quicken on a higher end PC (than the one for which you posted specs), but I don't believe that explains the difference in our experience. Your PC specs are (more than) adequate; my PC specs are gross overkill. So why the difference?My previous version was Quicken 2013, which was validated and backed-up.Quicken 2018 was installed and the backup was then imported (restored) into Quicken 2018. - edited December 2018
You may be right Artic Hare. I think (if I understand your post correctly) the residual performance issue you mention, is related to the 'One Step Update failure'. This happens only on my Quicken for Mac version not the Windows version where the One Step Update performs adequately.My previous version was Quicken 2013, which was validated and backed-up.Quicken 2018 was installed and the backup was then imported (restored) into Quicken 2018.

I am running Quicken on a i7 4790K (not overclocked), with 32 GB 1866 GHz RAM, a 6 GB DDR5 GPU, and Samsung 850 Pro SSD.

If you want help with Quicken Mac you really should post another question and mark it that way. There are people that only follow Mac posts and won't see this comment.
