Cannot connect Quickbooks to internet on my desktop.

Hello there, @JALynch. I want to ensure you'll be able to fix the connection of your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.

To ensure you'll be able to run your QBO account smoothly, let's first check if your computer meets the minimum requirements the program needs. You can read this article for more details: System requirements for QuickBooks Online, Accountant, Payroll, and QuickBooks Self-Employed. 

If in case you encounter an error message about the network issue when accessing your QBO account, you can check this link for the detailed steps in fixing it: What to do when a network issue error has occurred. 

I'll include this helpful resource that you can use as a reference if you encounter any performance issues when running your program: Why is my QuickBooks Online slow?.

If you have any other concerns about managing your account, please don't hesitate to post again here. Have a good one and keep safe.
