Hi davevulcan, 

 

Thanks for reaching out to us here. I'll be glad to steer you on the right path so you can get the answers you need in order to move forward with your business. 

 

You can install QuickBooks Desktop using the original installation CD. In the event the CD isn't available, you can use you license and product number to install the program on another computer. Here's a link that shows you were to: Download QuickBooks Desktop. Here's a helpful article that shows you how to: Move or reinstall QuickBooks Desktop to another computer. If the info in the article doesn't suffice, feel free to ask questions here. Otherwise, you may need to upgrade to newer version. 

 

In the meantime, feel free to ask other questions. I'm here to steer you in the right direction.

To activate QuickBooks Desktop on a new computer, Mcss4574, you'll need a validation code to register the software. Allow me to clarify the process.

 

Activation usually requires a validation code, which can be obtained by reaching out to our Live Support team. However, QuickBooks Desktop 2016 is a discontinued version and is no longer supported by Intuit. Because of this, the support team is unable to provide validation codes for unsupported versions like QuickBooks 2016.

 

Given this, you may need to either continue using QuickBooks Desktop on your old computer if possible, upgrade to the latest version of QuickBooks Desktop, or switch to QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

If you need further assistance, feel free to leave a comment below.

You can use the trial version of QB Desktop 2016 as a workaround. You should contact @Fiat Lux - ASIA via email directly for details.
