Then I transferred my Attic Manager database from Windows using Backup on Windows and Restore on Mac. IDB database from old Quicken into it, and it worked flawlessly. I tested the trial version on friend's Mac, and it seems to work the same way Windows version does. Apparently it was tested and works on MacOSX 10.9 Mavericks, and website says it supports 10.7 and never, so this means it's a 64bit program. Now, I just read on another blog that Attic Manager version for Mac is out. Even if I did not migrate from QHI, I would pick this one to track my stuff. I migrated from Quicken Home Inventory some time ago, and AM has shown to be a nice little program that does its job well. Anyway, one of those apps is Attic Manager. I just want to click and run the app, not wait for entire operating system to startup. Also, running Windows under VM just for one application is too slow for my liking. But, there were some Windows programs that do not work under Mac, and Bootcamp seems too complicated for me. Moving away from Windows to Mac was something I planned to do for a very long time. I'm amazed how this simple program keeps working on every new version of Windows that comes out, without even updating the program to newer release. So, yes, we lost like 20 minutes doing this, but now my friend has his QHI database on his brand new Windows 10. You first have to install Attic Manager on Windows XP (I checked, they say Windows 7 would also work), load the database there and then use Attic's backup/restore function to transfer the data to Windows 10. qhi files cannot be loaded on Windows 10 directly. idb files load directly into Windows 10 copy of Attic Manager without problems. Then I talked with some friends who wanted to convert their Quicken databases and here's what we found: I first tried with the inventories I converted earlier and everything works as before. ![]() As you already know form my previous posts, Attic Manager can load QHI databases so I can access all that data it took me years to enter. My next question is whether Attic Manager works and it does. Of course, one of the main questions was whether Quicken Home Inventory would work on it and the question is still no. Although my main system is Mac now, free is free and I decided to test it. Microsoft is offering free upgrade to Windows 10, and I figured I should try it.
