If I have quickbooks desktop for windows but I bought a mac pro laptop how do I move it to the mac?

Hi John-Pero, 

 

I'm looking into the same thing. The office uses QB enterprise on Windows machines and I'm the only one that has a Macbook. If I buy Windows for Mac will I be able to see the same information on my Mac in realtime with the transactions being done on the Windows machines?

@ng78 

You can't do that. You may have 2 options:

1. Utilize Parallels as mentioned by john-pero 

2. Setup a simple private cloud on the host (similar to RDP solution) and you will access QuickBooks on browser.

A MILLION thanks on this Christmas Eve to you sir! I have been trying to figure out how to work through this issue for several weeks now and I am so very grateful for your response! I was NOT looking forward to spending another several hundred dollars on this software just because I was gifted with a new MAC. 

 

Blessing to you and your family!!

I am interested in the 2021 Mac QB. How do I contact you privately to find out how I might purchase a new one time QBD 2021 for Mac license from one if your partners.

I am the treasurer for a non-profit church and have been using Windows Premier 2021 version of QB (running on Parallels & Windows 10). I have received a notification that my version will no longer be maintained after May 31st. so I need to decide if the Mac version will provide me with the necessary accounting, reports, etc. for our needs. We are a small church and have a limited budget for software and the prices for Parallels, QB fees have gone up.

Please provide me with any information that could be of help.

Thank you!
