My firm uses the migration tool to create annual backup copies of our non-advanced online clients; I have been doing this for three years with no issue. Last week, I couldn't get the migration tool to work - I uninstalled and installed several times, used the tool hub but kept getting the "1009 internal error: unknown exception". Finally, I contacted Intuit and was directed to Data Services, a case number was created, and they had to do the migration on the back end. They could not figure out why the migration tool was not working, and I was told that I may have to go through data services each time. We have over 20 online clients. Having to go through data services over 20 times just to create backups of clients’ files is absurd. There must be a way to fix my migration tool. Or another way to create backups of non-advanced online client files.
