Hi there, 5M.

 

Let's do some troubleshooting steps to see to boost your browsing speed.

 

You can log in to QuickBooks in a private window to disable the cache from saving your browsing data. If you can upload paychecks faster, you can go back to your regular browser and clear the cache. If it's still the same, you can use a different browser.
 

By the way, a cache temporarily stores your browsing data, so it reloads quickly when you revisit a page. However, you'll also experience lags when it's full. This is why we tried the private browser first to see how QuickBooks behaves while the cache is locked from saving new data.

 

Lastly, our phone agents is always ready to help you further if the behavior persists. You can reach them using the steps given by JanyRoseB.

 

We're just around if you need anything else.

yes I have been on hold 3 separate times - over 1.5 hours each time with QBO and the call has been dropped each time a few mins after a "rep" picks up the phone.... no help!

We appreciate your efforts in calling our phone support team, banana1612.

 

That isn't the type of experience we want you to have.

 

If you haven't already, you can try the troubleshooting steps provided by my colleague above by accessing QuickBooks using a private window to identify if this isn't caused by a cache related issue.

Please use these shortcut keys:

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Internet Explorer: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Safari: Command + Option + P

If it works, you can go back to your main browser and clear the cache to eliminate excessive files in your browser.

 

You can also use another compatible browser as an alternative.

 

If you have any other QuickBooks related concerns, please don't hesitate to post them here.
