Can anyone help me migrate form QB desktop 2008 to QB Online?

Thanks for reaching out to the community for support,  @himagain-comcast.

I'm happy to lend a helping hand with converting your QBO data to Desktop. 

A few things to note before you start the conversion. 

• If you use Multicurrency in QuickBooks Online, your data will not export correctly to Desktop.
• You need a recent version of QuickBooks Desktop installed before you start. You can download a trial to use as an alternative.
• You'll need Internet Explorer 11 installed to convert the data.

First, you'll need to prepare Internet Explorer and your QuickBooks Desktop. 

Here's how:

1. Set up the security settings in Internet Explorer:
   • Right-click the Internet Explorer icon and select Run as administrator.
   • Click on the Tools icon, then Internet Options.
   • Hit Security, then Trusted Sites.
   • Tap on Sites.
   • In the Add this website to the zone field, enter *.intuit.com and *.qbo.intuit.com.
   • Make sure Require server verification (https: ) for all sites in this zone is Unchecked.
   • Close the Trusted Sites window.
   • Make sure Enable Protected Mode is Unchecked.
   • Select Apply, then Okay.
   •  Leave Internet Explorer open.
2. Right-click your QuickBooks Desktop icon and choose Run as administrator. 
3. From the File menu, hit Close Company. Then, you'll leave QuickBooks open while you finish the conversion. 

Next, it's time to prepare to export your QBO data. Let's get started. 

1. Choose on the Gear icon and choose Export Data. 
2. Enter your reason for exporting and hit Continue.
3. In the Moving to QuickBooks Desktop section, select Learn more.
4. Tap on Get started.
5. Click Install ActiveX Control Now and follow the steps to install ActiveX. Once it's finished, select Continue.
6. Pick the data you want to export and then Continue.
7. Review the limitations and Continue.
8. Enter your contact info and then Continue.

Here's an article that'll walk you through the process: Move your QuickBooks Desktop file to QuickBooks Online.
