Quicken 2007 For Mac Lacks EV Cert Support

Posted by kdawson on from the untrusting-of-the-trustworthy dept.

adamengst writes "If your bank uses the Extended Validation certificates that require a higher level of identity checking on the certificate authority's part (as at least one Seattle bank does), you may not be able to download transactions using the Mac version of Quicken. Quicken doesn't gracefully ignore extra information in EV certificates as older Web browsers do, but instead throws an error and refuses to download transactions. Intuit says they're working on a fix — but users may have to wait 'a couple of months,' and even then the fix may not be applied to versions before Quicken 2007."

    Unless they're an arts program. Then the Mac version is likely to be superior.
