I appreciate the proactive response, Csoffice. You can reinstall QuickBooks Desktop again to fix the issues you're facing. I'll be guiding you below.
Follow these steps to install QuickBooks Desktop on either a dedicated server or a computer that accesses data on a server. This setup can also apply to a Terminal server or a server that hosts both QuickBooks and your company file. Remember to always use the direct path to your company file when accessing it from a server.
- Make sure you have an active internet connection throughout the process.
- Open the file QuickBooks.exe that you downloaded.
- elect Custom and Network Options and then click Next.
- Choose I’ll be using QuickBooks Desktop on this computer to install it on a workstation.
- Click Next to proceed.
- Click Next to start the installation.
- If you want to change the installation location, select Change the install location then Browse to decide where to put your QuickBooks folder. Most people put it in their Programs folder.
- When it finishes, select Open QuickBooks.
Ensure QuickBooks is properly connected to your server. If you have any network setup issues, contact an IT professional for assistance. After installation, QuickBooks will prompt you to activate and update the software. Follow the prompts to complete these steps.
