Question

QuickBooks Pro

I helped a friend upgrade his laptop last night.  He has a very old copy of QuickBooks Pro (2006) that he needs to move to the new laptop.  Unfortunately, he can't find his software.

 

Is there any way to get the software?  He still has the program on his old laptop, and has the serial number and product number.  He just doesn't have the software.

 

Thanks (in advance)

 

Dave

Let me share some information in regards to your 2006 version of QuickBooks Desktop,dvdrttr214.

 

QuickBooks Desktop 2006 version is no longer supported. We have this policy wherein your program will be discontinued after three years.

 

One thing that we'll have to do is to always have the latest features and fixes by updating QuickBooks to the latest release.

 

I've also added these articles for more information about our discontinuation policy and upgrading your QuickBooks program:

 

 

Don’t hesitate to reply to this thread if you have any other concerns with your QBDT program. I’ll be around to help you.

RE: I'd be glad to help you download the 2006 version of QuickBooks Desktop, dvdrttr214...

You can download the 2016 version of QuickBooks Desktop by going to this link:

 

So, then, you're not going to help the OP download the 2006 version? Seems so.

Missed the point:  he needs 2006, not 2016.

    QBD 2006 is too old and I am not sure Support will gladly to share the installer file and the validation code later. Consider to purchase the one time license for QBD 2021 to upgrade your version.

    Sorry  ... saying that the version is too old doesn't resolve the problem, and isn't a helpful suggestion.

    They only provide installer files for QBD 2010 or later on the website. You can try chatting with Support and asking for the installer file for QBD 2006. I'm not surprised Support will reply that your version is outdated and they can't help you except suggest buying a new subscription license for QB Desktop 2023.
