I switched from Quicken for Mac 2005 a couple of months ago, and had 
little difficulty exporting my accounts from Quicken to a QIF file 
(File>Export>Full Export in Quicken) and then importing the QIF file 
into Gnucash (OS X 2.6.8, Gnucash 2.4.7).

The only things that didn't transfer were my Quicken Scheduled 
Transactions, which don't appear to be put into the QIF export, and my 
stock price history, which is in the QIF, but which the Gnucash import 
ignores.

I'm working on trying to find a way to import QIF stock prices into 
Gnucash. See the "Import stock price history from QIF?" thread for more 
details.
