This appears to be an issue that is still unresolved as of June 28, 2021. The file doesn't allow for export. The message simply states it cannot be downloaded, please try again later. It's attempting to download as zip file. Any updates on when this will become a priority fix?
Welcome to the Community, ksmall24. Thanks for joining this thread. I appreciate all of your detailed information.
I've reviewed our ongoing/solved investigations and can confirm there's currently no records of subscribers reporting that they're unable to export their customer list in the United States version of QuickBooks.
I tested this myself in the test drive account and was able to export my list as an XLS file.
I've included an image showing my experience:
Since your books are giving you a ZIP file instead of one prepared for Excel and not allowing it to be downloaded, I'd recommend checking your browser. It's possible this could have something to do with temporary internet files. Browsing applications store this type of data, but sometimes the buildup can cause issues with certain webpages. You can open a private window and check to see if you're able to download your customer list as an Excel file.
Here's how to access incognito mode in some of the most commonly used web browsers:
If your list exports successfully while browsing privately, it's safe to say the problem's being caused by your browser. It can be fixed by clearing cached data and Intuit-specific cookies.
In the event it continues occurring while using incognito, you'll initially want to try switching to another browsing application.
Here's a list of supported browsers:
You can also check a browser's compatibility with your books by using our browser health checkup tool. QuickBooks supports the current and two previous versions of browsers. If you find that you're using an older version, be sure to update it to its latest release. Steps for doing so can be found on the particular company's website.
In the event you've found nothing that could be causing this with your browser, I'd recommend using a different device and/or internet connection to see if anything changes. If it continues happening on other devices and/or internet connections, you'll want to get in touch with our Customer Care team. They'll be able to pull up your account in a secure environment, conduct further research, and create an investigation ticket if necessary.
They can be reached while you're signed in:
Be sure to review their support hours so you'll know when agents are available.
If there's any additional questions, I'm just a post away. Have a wonderful day!
Thanks. I'm using QBO online successfully and have been able to import/export other QBO files into a new location without issue. It is a zip file and I keep coming up with the try again later. I'll see what I can do with the additional information.
Thanks.
