Reinstall software

My client can not get his 2014 QuickBooks software to install.  He has the original box and product code sticker, but when he enters the licenses & product code he gets an error that it is not valid.   What suggestions can I make to him to be able to get it installed?  He doesn't need an upgrade.  Basically uses the file as an electronic check register.

Hi there, Johnnene.

 

Thanks for dropping by here in QuickBooks Community. I'm here to help and provide some information about installing QuickBooks Desktop 2014. 

 

In this case, you'll need to visit the Customer Account Management Portal Site (CAMPS) which allows you to manage all your QuickBooks Desktop products and perform tasks such as finding your license information and downloading your software. 

 

To access CAMPS, log in to the Manage your QuickBooks web page and select your QuickBooks Desktop product tile. 

 

You may also check this article to learn more about CAMPS: Use the Customer Account Management Portal Site (CAMPS)

 

For additional reference, you can visit this article for the detailed steps on how to install QuickBooks Desktop.

Please learn from this input.

Your client is trying to use a Program that is no longer supported and will not register/activate. It reached end of life in May 2017. It will not Reinstall. The program is not considered compatible with Windows 10. Intuit has a 3-year lifecycle for the programs. QB 2019 has been out for 6 months, already. QB 2016 is reaching end of life in May 2019, for that same reason.

 

Worse, your Client's file is now 5 years behind current.

 

It is time to Update them to the QB 2019 program that meets their needs.

Hi rich42,

 

Thank you for following the steps in the article shared by JanyRoseB. There is a different way to register your QuickBooks once reinstalled on a different computer,  and that's is via validation code. Only our support team has access to this, so I'd recommend contacting them on weekdays from 6 AM to 6 PM PT.

  1. Click on this link: https://help.quickbooks.intuit.com/en_US/contact/.
  2. When prompted to choose a product, choose QuickBooks Desktop.
  3. Select an edition and enter a short explanation of the scenario.
  4. Click Continue.

After installing, you can restore your backup/portable company file.

 

Let me know if you have other questions about installing QuickBooks on another computer.
