I am trying to export my QuickBooks Desktop company files to QuickBooks Online. When I try to connect to QuickBooks, it does not connect. It is an old PC and very slow. How can I solve this problem?

Do you need to migrate data from QBD US version to QBO US version? Which QBD year version do you have?

Hi there, patboyce.

I'd like to add some information about moving data from QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) to QuickBooks Online (QBO).

Before we start, may I know what error message did you receive when you tried export your file from QBDT to QBO? Here's a link to help fix errors when converting from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online.

Also, you need to take note of following information to avoid any issues when migrating your data:

• You need to update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release.
• You need to check if the company file isn't too big to export.
• You can only move a company file within 60 days after signing up to QuickBooks Online.
• If you've already set up payroll in QuickBooks Online, you only need to move your lists.
• Some of lists and report won't be converted because of feature differences.

You can check this article for the steps on how to Move your QuickBooks Desktop file to QuickBooks Online. It provides both steps for QuickBooks Desktop Pro, Premier and Enterprise edition.

Once you've migrated the data to QBO, you can use this link as your reference: Getting Started With QuickBooks Online.

Keep me posted for any follow-up questions about managing your data. I'll be around if you need help. Have a great week!
