If same problem my initial posting is about I have it where I try opening quickbooks pro desktop 2018 it tells me my account is not linked. I then tell it login so I can link account. QB gives me an error message saying cant connect. Since can't connect, can't link so can't use program. Any way to make 2018 operable? QB is way out of control with price so if I can't use my previous version I cant justify the cost. I use the program for bookkeeping. Enter and pay bills so I can generate P&L. If I cant get this resolved it's to,expensive to use intuit.  Obviously intuit really doesn't care about SMALL busineses anymore
