That was fine for Quicken 2005, 2006, and 2007, but then development paused, with Intuit announcing that the planned Quicken Financial Life would be delayed from 2008 to 2010 (“ Quicken For Mac Delayed Until 2010,” 10 July 2009). Quicken 2002 Deluxe made the transition to Mac OS X successfully, although subsequent versions required the Rosetta emulator to run on Intel-based Macs. Back in 1998, the company announced it was dropping Quicken entirely (“ Intuit Drops Quicken for Macintosh,” 20 April 1998), before reversing the decision just weeks later after pressure from Apple (“ Quicken Speeds Back to Mac,” ). (Apple subsidiary Claris bundled Quicken with ClarisWorks in 1992 and Apple itself bundled Quicken with Performa models in the mid-1990s.)Īnd yet, Intuit has jerked Mac users around repeatedly.

The company has published the Quicken personal finance app since the early days of the Mac, and it has received preferred treatment from Apple on a number of occasions, aiding its success.

Over the years, no company has toyed with the loyalties of Mac users more than Intuit.
