Can I get technical support.

Welcome to the Community, @helenselby.

 

Let me guide you in downloading the QuickBooks Online app to your laptop.

 

If your laptop meets the desired system requirement, you should be able to download the desktop app on your new PC.

 

You'll have to make sure that you're using a Windows 64-bit laptop and ensure that the user must be a QuickBooks Online subscriber or an accountant with a QuickBooks Online Accountant so you can download the app.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online account.
  2. Go to the Gear ⚙ icon. Then select Get the desktop app.
  3. Depending on your settings, you might see the app install automatically.  If not, QuickBooks will prompt you to save the .exe file.
    • If asked, choose where you want to save the file and select Save. Open the QuickBooks Setup file to install.
  4. A shortcut to the app gets installed on your desktop. After you install the app, it should open automatically. If it doesn’t, open the app from the shortcut.
  5. On the sign-in screen, enter your user ID and password. Then select Sign in.
  6. If you see more than one QuickBooks Online company, select the company you want to open. 
  7. The first time you use the desktop app, you’ll see an option to select how QuickBooks is displayed on the main homepage, (you can change this later).
    • If you switch from QuickBooks Desktop and want a similar view, select Yes, let’s go.
    • If you’re already familiar with QuickBooks Online, select No, I already know how to use QuickBooks Online.
  8. After selecting your company, you’re now all set.

 

For more details and steps on the process, check out this article for reference: Download And Use The QuickBooks Online Desktop App.

 

I've also provided this article to know more in case this is your first time using QuickBooks Online (QBO): Getting Started And Adjust Settings After You Sign Up For QuickBooks Online.

 

Let me know if you have follow-up questions with the process. I'm right here to assist you further. Keep safe!

Hello there, @CRgoodman

 

It's important to know why your items have gone back while the print entry areas have turned white. This way, you can fix the issue and get back to your business tasks in the QuickBooks Online Desktop App. No worries, I'll lay down the solution to help you get them back to normal.

 

This unexpected behavior could probably cause by accumulated junk files in the system. Thus, let's perform some troubleshooting steps to resolve this. You can follow this reference as your guide in refreshing the app:

 

  1. Go to the Help menu.
  2. Select Reset App Data.
  3. Once done, close and re-open the app.
     

 

You can also uninstall and reinstall the application if the same thing happens. 

 

In addition, QuickBooks also offers self-help articles that can assist you in completing your tasks quickly by going to our QuickBooks help page to access these articles.
 

You could also create a desktop shortcut for QuickBooks Online to navigate and perform tasks easily in the program. 

 

Let me know how this goes. And if you have other concerns or QuickBooks questions, just let me know. I want to ensure your success. Always take care!

Hi there, Irene. Let's fix the program issues that prevent you from entering your password. We can use the QuickBooks Tool Hub to troubleshoot this.  

 

If you're unable to enter your password, we can utilize the QuickBooks Tool Hub. Ensure first that your QuickBooks Desktop is updated to the latest release, and create a backup file of your company to prevent any potential losses due to unforeseen circumstances. 

 

To begin troubleshooting, follow these steps:

 

  1. Close your QuickBooks Desktop, then download the recent version (1.6.0.3) of the QuickBooks Tool Hub.
  2. Please save it in an easily accessible location and open it (QuickBooksToolHub.exe). Follow the on-screen instructions to install it, agreeing to the terms and conditions.
  3. Once complete, you can access the tool hub by double-clicking the icon on your Windows desktop

 

Afterward, proceed to these steps to run a quick repair on your program:

 

  1. Choose Program Problems in the tool hub.
  2. Select Quick Fix My Program.
  3. Start QuickBooks Desktop and open your data file.

 

You can check out this article for more information: Fix common problems and errors with the QuickBooks Desktop Tool Hub

 

If the same thing happens after taking the troubleshooting steps, I recommend contacting our technical support. Our team of experts can arrange a screen-sharing session to investigate what's causing this and provide solutions.

 

If you forget your password, you can reset it. Here's how:

 

  1. Open your desktop file, then click the I forgot my password.
  2. Select your recipient. You will receive a code at your registered email address.
  3. Obtain it and enter it back into the program. QuickBooks will then guide you through creating a new admin password.
     


Moreover, you can visit our Help pages. It contains detailed articles that provide comprehensive instructions and guidelines on managing QuickBooks Desktop more efficiently.

 

The troubleshooting and suggested steps will ensure you can use the program seamlessly. Doing so will allow you to get your data more efficiently. Click the reply button below if additional assistance is needed. I'm always here to help.
