You can try to get it from Quicken support. If you have already purchased QM2017, you can get it for free as an intermediary version. https://www.quicken.com/support#osx
I suggest that you make sure that Quicken 2017 for Mac will meet your needs, since it is not an upgrade from QM2007 but rather from Quicken Essentials (which was re-written from the ground up, starting in 2010), so there are some features that are still not there e.g. loan amortization, 2-line display, QuickMath, auto-backups, or are not as fully developed yet, e.g. Customized Reports, investment lot management, performance reports and stats (therefore some data may not carry over). You can start here:
http://www.quicken.com/mac/compare
Currently, the main advantages of QM2017 over QM2007 include the ability to sync cash, bank, and credit card accounts using Quicken Mobile for mobile devices (iOS and Android) and the ability to save receipts with transactions via computer or mobile device. There are a few other minor features that QM2007 does not have. Note that QM2017 is being supported until April 30, 2020 whereas it has been announced that security fixes have ceased for QM2007 since QM2017 is released...see http://www.quicken.com/support/update-quicken-mac-2007-support-policies-may-2016 yet online access will continue as long as the FI/Bank supports it and their security updates don't prevent it.

Take a look at the following videos to give you a better idea:

If you find that QM2017 does not meet your needs, the alternative is to try to obtain and run QM2007 Lion Compatible (LC), which will run on Mac OS X 10.6.8 to 10.12 Sierra (so far) by contacting Quicken support here: http://www.quicken.com/contact-support.
Be sure to select Quicken for Mac 2007 Lion, Shopping and Buying, Buying Quicken to avoid a tech support fee. They may charge you $15 for the software.
NOTE: If you purchase QM2017, you can get QM2007 for free by contacting support. Just select QM2017 support instead. Some of the cheapest places to purchase it are places like Amazon.
Please report back here on your success in getting QM2007 so we can know how it went.

One change between Quicken 2007 and 2019 is that the new versions no longer supports subclasses; instead, it now has 'tags' (the new name for classes), and you can have multiple tags on a single transaction. If you currently use subclasses, you'll want to promote them to classes in Quicken 2007 before migrating to Quicken 2019.

    I don't know if you're interested in pursing what problems you ran into in the conversion, because most Quicken 2007 users have been able to successfully convert their data files. You could post what went wrong here, or work with Quicken Support during their weekday phone hours.
    In terms of Quicken 2007, it isn't supported or sold by Quicken anymore, and so you'll have to find one on the open market. If you visit eBay, you'll see a person who sells them there (currently charging a whopping $56); you might be able to find someone selling an old copy with a bit more searching.

    I'm so sorry, but I don't understand what you're referring to. Accounts in Quicken (both 2007 and 2019) are your various bank accounts, credit card accounts, cash accounts, loan accounts, etc. There are subcategories and subclasses, but I'm not aware of anything called a sub-account. Could you clarify?

If you currently use subclasses, you'll want to promote them to classes in Quicken 2007 before migrating to Quicken 2019. By using multiple tags in Quicken 2019, you can possibly achieve the same result you had previously, where you could get reports by the one tag (your former class) or another tag (your former subclass). But I'm not sure if this is what you were referring to at all, so I don't want to go farther down this road.
    As for not all the information importing correctly, this is sometime because the index to the Quicken 2007 database was damaged -- a not uncommon occurrence that is easy to have Quicken rebuild.
    What happened to the copy of Quicken 2007 you were running prior to trying to move to Quicken 2019? Is it on a different Mac? Did you delete it?

    BTW, you do NOT need to promote subclasses in QM2007 prior to migrating to 'modern' QMac. The conversion automatically promotes them to Tags.
    Of course, if you have multiple subclasses that have the same name, you end up with only one new tag, thereby losing the original association of the subclass to its original 'parent' class.

    @smayer97 I didn't say it was necessary to promote Quicken 2007 sub-classes to classes before conversion to Quicken 2019, I said it is something most users who utilize sub-classes would want to do. I didn't go into details, but the reason for suggesting it is because that allows consideration of renaming any of them them if needed so they make sense in a non-hierarchical approach.
    Thanks for clarifying. Without that context the OP could interpret this as meaning that it was a necessary step, especially given that the OP had a problem with conversion. Therefore, I wanted to make it clear to the OP (or anyone else reading this) that it was not a required step to have a successful conversion.

  • Thanks again. The terminology is my own. Within the main account I created 4 accounts; one was my bank account, another was a fictitious account to which I would transfer 'cash' from my bank account as a way of saving (it was of course really always in my bank account -- and these 2 transferred to new Quick in a combined format (but truncated to only 4 months of data). The remaining 2 accounts within my main account were simply the cash histories of my 2 brokerage accounts so not tied to any bank or even the brokerages. They did not transfer at all.
    As to my copy of old Quicken I'm afraid I may have lost the data file; there were several in my machine, some very old (I have been using Quicken since 1996), and I may have tossed the wrong one. I assumed that the current data file was part and parcel of the app itself and that is just not the case. I can open old Quicken but it only shows my account up to 2010! I will pursue e-bay.

    'Within the main account ' I believe that you mean 'Within the main FILE'.
    Your file holds multiple accounts, but there's no such thing as 'sub-accounts' in Quicken.

    Excellent! You should be able to find a recent Quicken 2007 data file there, so you'll have (almost) all your data back again. After you get to that place where you have the data file you want to continue to work with, it's a good idea to delete the ones you've been using, or rename them or relocate them, so you don't get confused about which file is your real, live data file. (And then make a backup of that!)
    Once you're back on solid footing, if you wanted to try the conversion to Quicken 2019 again, I'd recommend re-indexing your Quicken 2007 data file. Make a copy of your data file for safety, then do Command-Option-B to trigger the reindexing, which may take a minute or two. Then quit Quicken 2007, launch Quicken 2019 while holding down the Shift key. It will ask if you want to open your existing Quicken 2019 data file, and you should press Cancel. That which will bring you to the Let's Get Started page, where you can specify starting from a Quicken 2007 file, select your just-indexed Quicken 2007 data file, and let it convert again. Hopefully, you'll get all your data converted this time.
