I'm a fellow customer.
Quicken data is stored in proprietary files, you need to export the raw transactions from Quicken into one (preferable) or more QIF files which can be imported by other programs.
Moneydance stores your data locally, by design the data must be on the local machine and not on any form of shared or cloud storage.

Current versions of Quicken (Mac) do not provide QIF exports.

Quicken for Mac often provides QMTF files which are really just a QIF subset.
So you generate QMTF files and rename them to have a QIF subset then they should import into Moneydance.

I just found, in my heroic(?) struggle to get my investment data into Moneydance, that Quicken Mac will indeed export QMTF files which are importable, after renaming as .qif, by MD -- except that for such exports Quicken skips Investment accounts.

That comes into the subset part - Quicken leaves out investments, for one thing, in QMTF files.
Quicken CSV files can be a bit of a challenge too.
