What to do when a network problem error has occurred in QuickBooks Online

by Intuit•1• Updated 2 days ago

If you see a message, "Error: a network problem has occurred", it means a portion of the page hasn't fully loaded due to network connectivity issues. Follow the steps below to resolve the error and restore page functionality.





Steps to resolve the network error

  1. Select the Reload button or press F5 on your keyboard (Command + R if you're using a Mac) to reload the entire page.
  2. If the problem persists, restart your browser and then sign in to QuickBooks Online.
  3. If refreshing the browser doesn't work, check if your computer is running any firewall software. If a firewall is present, configure it to allow access for http://accounting.quickbooks.com and https://qbo.intuit.com.
