You bought a new version of QuickBooks, and you’re about to install it on your computer. But you are a little worried about how to transfer your data from the old version to your new version. It should be automatic (but see caveats below). You install and register your new version of QuickBooks. Then you click on Open Existing Company. Navigate to your company file and open it. QuickBooks will see that your company file exists in an earlier version and needs updating.
It will ask you if you’re sure you want to upgrade your file to the new version. The process is irreversible, so QuickBooks gets your confirmation before proceeding. Once you confirm, QuickBooks will update your company file to your new version. It might take a few minutes if your file is a large one. Your company file has been revised to work with your new version of QuickBooks. CAVEATS:.
Make sure that you make a backup of your data before opening it in the new version. Probably the easiest way to do that is to do so in your old version of QuickBooks, before you install the new version. Just to make things perfectly clear, include in the name of your backup file something like Pre-converted. If there is some data corruption in your file, it may fail the process of being converted to the new version. May be needed. If you are making a jump of many versions (e.g.
Coming from QuickBooks 2006 to QuickBooks 2014), the chances are greater that the file will have trouble converting. For large files, be patient with the process. It might seem as thought QuickBooks is freezing up, but it might be just “thinking about it”. RELATED: Do you have any experience to share about transferring your company data into your new version of QuickBooks? Someone may have asked this one before but here goes anyway.
I have QB Premier 09/10. It runs very well but my computer is giving me grief and I’m considering dumping it and buying a Mac desktop. I’ll probably need to purchase a new version of QB. Do latest version of QB work with latest Mac OS? Will backed up data have any issues transferring from an XP platform? Last time I did an update of my version of QB, my whole program went kaput and I lost all my existing data. It took over a week to fix it with my backed up data.
Any such problems still out there of which you are aware. In a nutshell, is the latest version of QB worth it and will my backed up data from Premier 09/10 transfer to it if I purchase a Mac?
Love your work – cheers. Perhaps you can help me as Intuit has not been able to help out. I had been using for MAY years quickbooks pro 6 2004 for the mac. All was good until I upgraded our mac to capitan and the qb wouldn’t open. I purchases a qb 2016 for the mac but the old company file would not convert. I have been sending to intuit tech support the company files but they say that there is no data on the file (I see that it has 32 mb).
There is also no extension name, but mac never required an extension name. Can you tell me how to do it or what extension at least I have to put in? Hi Shannon, Great Site. So I have a bit of a head scratcher. Recently had to reinstall quickbooks 2006 due to infection. We are trying to restore.qbb backup file (all we have). The application seemed to install ok however we now cannot restore the backup file as the program says there have been a number of updates since backup created.
Downloaded the 2006 R12 webpatch but no luck with that as it says the correct version of quickbooks is not installed. Any idea where we might go from here? Not easy to get great support from Intuit themselves so hoping you guys might have some ideas. We’re a small family business so it’s difficult to explain to ppl why we have a licensed product with backups that don’t work although we have the application up again. I know the version is quite old but it seems an odd predicament for a user/customer all the same. What are our best options to get up and running again? Hi John, I’m guessing you were previously running on a computer using an older version of Windows, and now you’re trying to run QB 2006 on Windows 10?

Even much more recent versions of QB don’t work right under Win 10. So you might try running it on another old computer (running Windows 7 or prior) and see if that helps. Or, if you are open to upgrading, you could download a trial copy of QB 2018 and see if it will restore and upgrade the file. Then buy QB if it works. Thanks for your question.
