Quicken 2007 For Mac Lion Update
I have been a Quicken user since the 90s. I have been using Quicken 2007 for Mac for many, many years and it does exactly what I want, what I need, and how I like to do it. I am in the unfortunate position that I'm going to have to upgrade my Mac OS to High Sierra. The reason for this is that many software developers, particularly the game companies are no longer supporting El Capitan. I have been reviewing software that will and will not work with High Sierra and what current plans are and my understanding is that Quicken 2007 will work for the moment under Sierra (or High Sierra) but will stop working soon because it will no longer be compatible with the OS. I'd like confirmation on this. I have tried newer versions of Quicken and have not liked them AT ALL.
In addition, attempts to migrate my financial information to the newer software has ALWAYS failed - I've lost information. In one case, I lost the data from an entire register!! I *cannot* lose the information in my Quicken file. This represents a great deal of data and information that I keep for a variety of reasons.
I use the memo field to track a variety of things including when I purchased items with warranties, and other information. I cannot lose any of the data. I also do not want to have ANY of my data in the cloud. No way, no how.
I do not want my financial data out on the Internet where anyone can get at it if they know how. But, my exploration of information on this site leads me to believe that everything is now kept in the cloud and there's no longer a file on my Mac. Is this true? Also, from perusing the update costs, it looks like Quicken is now some kind of subscription service. That is, instead of buying a software product for one price that I install on my machine, it is now some kind of cloud-based software with an annual fee.
Is this true? I'm trying to figure out if, at long last, I'm going to have to switch from Quicken to some other product made by another company. I'd really like to keep Quicken 2007.
Or at least have something similar that will keep ALL of my data safe on my machine and only on my machine without using the cloud. And I cannot afford a yearly subscription. Samsung 840 evo migration software for mac.
Subject: Quicken 2007 for Lion [my name], I was reviewing our Mac 2007 for Lion support contacts and came across your case from December 23. Unfortuantely, you received incorrect information when you contacted support. A final decision around pricing for the Lion-compatible Quicken 2007 and the sunset policy has not been made.

If anyone has any information, advice, comments, or what have you, I'd like to hear it. Right now I'm very confused about my options. Of course, if there's some way to convince the Powers That Be at Intuit to continue to support Quicken 2007, that would be perfect!
