Hi LHVJ You will have to update/upgrade to at least the 2105 version to be qable to migrate to the online product. You can find where their data is stored from the main login screen, it shows the file path, under the location heading. You can create a backup under the file tab. (you can just use the backup you create if you wanted to as well which would be easier to find).

@LHVJ 

Open a new blank QBO account

https://quickbooks.grsm.io/UK

 

then chat Support and ask Data Service to migrate your file. Make sure your Total Targets < 500K prior to migrating to QBO. Otherwise, contact us in private and we may help to migrate it with a fee.
