From QB Mac 2019 use file>open company or the browse option from the no company open window and navigate to your QB Mac 2014 company file.
I am trying to bring my data over from an old computer that was running quickbooks 2014 and I have purchased a new computer with Quickbooks 2020. When i make a backup of my company on 2014 the 2020 says that the file is locked and can't be opened. I am concerned that the old version had to run on Yosemite and the 2020 version has to be on later OS, I am using Catalina and that the two versions can nor read the other files. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for joining the conversation, @Mary2020.
