Quickbooks Regular 2005 updates

Hi

I have a situation where someone I know has been using Quickbooks Regular 2005 on Windows XP up until last week. This person has finally purchased a new PC with Windows 10. On his old XP machine Quickbooks Regular 2005 release R14 was installed from disc but over the years it was updated to release R19. He took a backup of his data under R19. The software got installed on the new Windows 10 machine from disc which is only R14 which is an older version from the last backup so he's unable to import the data unless he updates Quickbooks. Unfortunately as the software is so old the updates are no longer available. It's a long shot but is there any way to update Quickbooks Regular 2005 to a later release version so he can import his data?

 

Thanks

Quickbooks Regular 2005 updates

Thanks for sharing detailed information about your concern, @anthgav.

 

Updating the QuickBooks 2005 to R19 is unavailable. The product was discontinued and your current system no longer supports this Desktop version.

 

You have to upgrade to continue working with your company data. Aside from that, some add-ons can help easily manage your business, available only on supported software. 

 

I recommend visiting our website for the updated pricing and exciting features: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/uk/desktop/.
