Cannot open a new window through accountant tools, but I can open another QB on same browser. Why?

Usually use 3 windows at the same time. But cannot open more than 1.

Cannot open a new window through accountant tools, but I can open another QB on same browser. Why?

Good day, southalllynda.

 

Thanks for reaching out here in the Community today. Let's get this sorted out.

 

When a browser stored a lot of caches, it could cause problems like not being able to open a new window or latency issue. As an initial step, you can press the F5 key on your keyboard to refresh the page.

 

If you're still unable to open a new window through the accountant tools, let's log into your QuickBooks Online account using an incognito window. It's a great way to isolate browser-related issues since it doesn't store data in the cache. Here are the keyboard shortcuts:

 

  • Google Chrome: CTRL + Shift + N
  • Safari: Command + Shift + N 
  • Mozilla Firefox or Microsoft Edge: CTRL + Shift + P 

Once signed in, you can access your accountant tools from there and open a new window. If the private browser works, you can clear the cache depending on which browser you're using through this helpful article: Clear cache and cookies to fix issues when using QuickBooks Online.

 

I'll be sharing with you this link: About Accountant Tools. This will provide you links on what other accountant features you can access to maintain your client's financial data.

 

You can always get back to me if you have any other QuickBooks concerns. Have a good one.
