Personal. We don't have the Windows version, but the Mac of Quicken. Seems it fails to import some transactions, and thus throws the final balance off. All things considered, really not that bad.
I haven't done a Quicken to KMyMoney import in years, but when I did try (so long ago, I forget what version I was migrating) it didn't do a nice job of it - that was when I looked at using Moneydance as my personal accounting package in Linux. I paid for a license, started using it in Windows, and then migrated it all to Linux at some point several years ago... at least 8 years I think.
Maybe this would be the solution you need here. It is a commercial package (reasonably priced), but you can download and try it for free - so you can test to see if it'll cleanly import your QIF file. The nice thing is, it's cross platform (Java based), so you can start with it on the Mac, and then if it all works, migrating Moneydance to Linux is very simple... Install Moneydance, copy the data files and you're done.
I don't know how easy/hard it is to migrate from Moneydance to KMyMoney though.
C. The main accounts we were able to correct rather quickly, and its smaller ones still showing discrepancies. Frankly, I'm allergic to proprietary solutions in most cases. As for using it on the Mac, that isn't an option either since the hardware is failing one component every month and a half. -- Roger Luedecke openSUSE Ambassador Ind.
