How do i download quickbooks desktop to my new computer

Hi floridaeveqcente. The easiest way to get QuickBooks Downloaded is to navigate to your CAMPS portal. When you log in, all your current QuickBooks Licenses will be available to view and download.

 

If you need help with the install process, we also have a very informative article on installing QuickBooks Desktop that will be a huge help. The article goes over all the steps and requirements to get back up and running. 

 

The most important step to moving from one computer to a new one with QuickBooks Desktop though is making sure to backup your company file to move it to the new computer. To make sure you don't run into any problems, here are some quick instructions on how to do this:

  1. Follow the steps to create a backup company file on your original computer.
  2. I recommend saving the file with a unique name to avoid overwriting and misplacement of the most current backup. 
  3. Save the backup file somewhere you can easily find it, like your Windows desktop.
  4. Move the backup company file to your new computer. You can either put the backup on a flash drive or an external device. 
  5. Last, just follow the steps to restore the backup on your new computer. 

Once you get QuickBooks Desktop Installed and your company file restored, you're good to go. If you need anything else though, don't hesitate to leave a reply below. The community is always happy to point you in the right direction.
