Account management

Thanks for sharing your result, @dianniefred. I've come here to give you further details about this.

 

Let's first ensure that your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) is updated to the latest release. This keeps your system up to date with components that fix common problems. Once done, let's change your legal name again. Let me guide you how:

 

  1. Open your QBDT program and go to the Company menu.
  2. Click My Company.
  3. From the Company Information field, click the pencil icon.
  4. Edit your Company Name then, select OK.
  5. Next, click the Legal information and change your Legal Name.
  6. Click OK when done.

 

For your reference about the process, please visit this article: Update your business name and address for QuickBooks Desktop. It also includes steps on how you can change your account name for your Intuit account.

 

It's a good idea to back up your files frequently. This ensures that you always have an original copy of your file that you may recover at any time in case of data loss or damage.
