I can share some information about moving from QuickBooks Online (QBO) to QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), @dswood1.

 

Yes, QuickBooks Desktop Pro 2019 is no longer a supported version. This means that your access to add-on services (QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Services, Live Support, Online Backup, Online Banking, and other services) will be discontinued. However, if you're not using any services, QBDT Pro 2019 will still work for you. 

 

Just make sure that your computer's operating system, hardware, software, and other requirements are compatible to run QBDT Pro 2019. Then, ready your product and license numbers just like what SM191 above mentioned. You can get the installer by going to this Downloads & Updates page.  

 

Once done, you can now install this to your PC:

 

  1. Locate the downloaded setup file on your computer.
  2. Click to launch the setup.
  3. Follow the prompts to finish installing your QBDT.

 

 After that, activate your QBDT: 

 

  1. Go to the Help menu and select Activate QuickBooks.
  2. Follow the prompts to finish installing your QBDT.

 

Check these articles for more information about installing your QuickBooks to this new PC and activating it: 

 

 

Then, follow the steps outlined in the following article on preparing your QBO file for exporting and importing your data to QBDT: Move your QuickBooks Online data to QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Let me know if you have further questions about switching from QBO to QBDT. I'm always here to assist. Have a great rest of the day!
