Is there anyway to download old PayPal into Quicken? I want to put all my 2017 into Quicken for taxes but it only downloads the last 3 months. And the new Quicken won't open a QIF file.
Is there any workaround at all?

So obviously, if you're not a developer you'll need one to help you with it.

I'm not a developer- but Quicken no longer imports in QIF is the problem. PayPal generates a QIF with date range but then Quicken can't read it.

Well, you could generate whatever file type you need. It wouldn't be a cheap solution for a developer to build for you, though. If it's really something you want that badly you can submit a quote request and I'll be happy to discuss the details with you.

No thanks- just looking for a way to do this- not looking to hire someone. PayPal to Quicken should work, somehow.

I'm not even 100% sure the API will go back that far, so that would have to be tested first. I really can't think of any way around that limitation. Sorry.

You're making no sense. You can go back more than a full year and pull a QIF report. However, Quicken will not import it any longer. PayPal needs to change it's format to "Quicken OFX data". That's what it reads now -- it will no longer accept a QIF report, so that report is useless. We shouldn't have to pay a developer to get a standard, Quicken file format that PayPal is just failing to provide.
