Let's update your QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release so you can continue with the migration, ToyaJaye.
I appreciate all the troubleshooting steps you've performed to fix the migration error 1009. For now, let's ensure that you update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release so you have the latest features and product improvements. Then, use again the migration tool to create your backup copies in QuickBooks.
QuickBooks will automatically download updates when they're available. When the update is downloaded, you'll see the Update available on the status bar in the top right corner. If you encounter an error upon installation, you can download the update again and repeat these steps a couple of times to see if the release number advances.
Here's how:
- Go to Help and select Update QuickBooks Desktop.
- Select Update Now, then Get Updates.
- Close and reopen QuickBooks to install the update again.
Then, Press F2 (or Ctrl+1) to open the Product Information window to check your current version and release. For more details about the process above, see this article: Update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release.
However, if the issue persists after updating your QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release, I'd recommend contacting our Customer Support team. They can further investigate this matter and provide updates on the case number created. To reach them, click this link: Contact QuickBooks products and services support.
I'll also include these articles on other ways to use the migration tool and address any inquiries you may have regarding the process:
