Join nowI am at a loss as to what to do! My bank Redstone Federal Credit Union has once again changed their banking platform. Every time I try to get my QuickBooks (I have a MacBook Pro with Catalina) to work with online banking my Quick Books Crashes! The bank sent me the specific steps to follow and I did them and still no luck.
Any help would be deeply appreciated!
I'd like to provide reasons on why your QuickBooks crashes while working with online banking, @Pixiesmoon.
It has identified that there are file incompatibility issues between early versions of QuickBooks Desktop for Mac 2019 and 2020 and macOS Catalina. This caused the program not to load or crash.
You can fix the issue by uninstalling and reinstalling it to improve the program functionality. Before we start, you need to make sure the system is updated to its latest release.
In case you're using the CD to install the product, make sure you have it handy along with your license numbers.
Once ready, follow these steps to uninstall:
After that, reinstall the latest version. Here's how:
You can verify the update by pressing the Cmd+1.
Moreover, if the issue persists after performing the steps above, you can do a clean install. This refreshes QuickBooks with the installation files that were left behind during the re-installation process. For the detailed steps, kindly refer to this article: Reinstall QuickBooks for Mac using clean install.
Please let me know how things turn out or if you have other concerns. I'm just around to help. Have a lovely day!
