I need to recover my files

Need to speak to someone

Thanks for joining on this thread, @GP6931.


To clarify, may I know if you’re using QBO or the desktop version? This can help me provide a timely solution about your concern.


While waiting for your reply, allow me to share some information about recovering files for each QuickBooks version. For QuickBooks desktop, you can either restore the backup copy or use the Auto Data Recovery tool to recover your files.


The process of getting back the data file for each method is different, and I’m here to help. Here’s how to restore the backup copy.

 

  1. In your company file, tap the File menu at the top bar to choose Open or Restore Company.
  2. This will open the Open or Restore Company window.
  3. From there, mark the radio button to Restore a backup copy and then click Next.
    lc bak.png
  4. On another window, select Local backup and hit Next to continue.
    lc bak1.png
  5. In the Open Backup Copy screen, look for the saved file and it should look like this: [Your company name].qbb.
    lc bak2.png
  6. Choose the backup file and click Open and Next.
  7. Click Save when you're ready and respond to any messages that will display on the screen.

In regard to the Auto Data Recovery tool, this functionality is only available in QuickBooks Pro, Premier, and Enterprise Solutions for Windows. The ADR can help recover lost files through the following.  

 

  • Restoring lost transactions using your current Transaction Log file and a copy of your Company file.
  • Restoring all but the last few hours of transactions with a copy of both your Company file and your Transaction Log file.

For detailed instructions for each method of retrieving the data file, check out the Recover lost data with QuickBooks Auto Data Recovery guide and choose which one that works for you. The article outlines the steps on how to retrieve files via the original .TLG file with .QBW.adr file.


If you’re using the online version, we automatically backup your data up with the same level of security used by banks and financial institutions. Since we update your records with every change, we’re unable to restore your file to a previous point in time. The following article provides an overview of how QBO keeps your data safe and secure: Do I need to back up my data with QuickBooks Online?

 

To avoid accidental loss of transactions, let me share the following articles for future reference. Each one outlines the instructions on how to keep a copy of the company data file for QBO and the desktop version.

 

Click the Reply button and post a comment if you have any clarifications about recovering files in QuickBooks. I’m more than happy to assist further. Enjoy the rest of the day.

Need to speak to someone

Hello there, Brecheisen123. Let's reactivate your QuickBooks Online account subscription.

 

You'll only need to log in to your QBO account. Then, enter the updated payment information on which account your subscription payment will be taken. To guide you further, please follow the steps below:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon.
  2. Select Account and Settings under Your Company
  3. In the Billing & Subscription section, Resubscribe.
  4. Enter the updated billing information.
  5. Then, select Subscribe.

 

Once done, we recommend logging out and log back into your QBO account. Then, go back to the Billing & Subscription section. Please check the Next charge date and make sure it's not a date in the past. If it is dated in the past, you'll have to contact our support team to prevent back-billed charges from occurring.

 

Check these articles to get more ideas on how to manage your subscription:

 

 

That will do. Please go back to this thread if you have other concerns. Otherwise, you can enjoy your day. Take care always!

Need to speak to someone

I can definitely help you with that, PrestigePropertySolutions.

 

As your business grows, you may need to use a bigger web application to better manage your books. When you're ready to move, I'll show you how to import your data and switch your subscription.

 

You can start by downloading all your financial reports for record keeping. Here's how to do it:
 

  1. In QuickBooks Self-Employed, go to the Reports menu.
  2. In the Tax details section, select a tax year.
  3. Click Download to get a Tax Details report.
  4. Download a report for each tax year you have in QuickBooks.
  5. Repeat the following actions above for your Profit and LossMileage Log, and Receipts.

After that, you can now start moving your data to QuickBooks Online by following the steps below:

 

  1. Click the Gear icon, then go to Billing info.
  2. Select Explore QuickBooks Online plans.

  3. Choose Switch plan or Choose plan for the QuickBooks Online plan you want.
  4. Follow the on-screen steps.
  5. Select Bring my data if you want to choose which data you move over. If you don't want to move any data and start fresh, select Start fresh.
  6. Click To QuickBooks Online to move your data to QuickBooks Online. If you see a billing info review screen, select Change plan to start.

Take note that the transfer can take some time. Additionally, if you don't see the Explore QuickBooks Online plans option, you'll need to manually move your data. You can refer to this article to be guided in doing the process: Switch from QuickBooks Self-Employed to QuickBooks Online.

 

I also recommend checking our Getting Started guide to help set up your new QBO company.

 

If I can be of any additional assistance, please don't hesitate to leave a comment below.

Let's perform some troubleshooting solutions to access your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account, Administrator07.

 

We can check if your browser is compatible with QuickBooks. Just go to https://fixit.intuit.com and if you see a red warning icon, just update your browser’s settings. Then, select the button under the warning, then follow the steps provided. If it works, go to your regular browser and clear the cache to delete those temporarily stored files and browsing history. The overtime collection of data can create corruption, however, removing this should fix the issue. You can also use supported, up-to-date browsers to roll out the possibility of a browser-related issue. 

 

Then, try logging in back to QBO. Here's how: 

  1. Go to https://qbo.intuit.com and try to sign in.
  2. If you can’t access the page, go to https://quickbooks.intuit.com/.
  3. At the upper right, hover over Sign In and select QuickBooks Online
  4. Retry to sign in to QuickBooks.

 

If you still can’t access the page, add QuickBooks as a trusted site by following the steps below:

  1. Find out how to add trusted sites to your browser.
  2. Add https://qbo.intuit.com and https://quickbooks.intuit.com/.
  3. Close and reopen your browser.
  4. Retry to sign in to QuickBooks.

 

Nonetheless, if you need to talk to our Customer Support Team, you may call us at a time convenient to you, or we’ll get in touch with you instead. To ensure we address your concern, our representatives are available from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekdays and 6:00 AM - 3:00 PM on Saturdays, PST. See our support hours and types for more details about this one. Here's how:

  1. Go to the Help icon on the top right. 
  2. Enter your concern in the search field.
  3. Choose Talk to a human.
  4. Click the OK. To get you to the right human, in a few words, tell me what you need help with option and tap I still need a human
  5. Press Contact us.
  6. Tick Continue
  7. Choose Call or Get a callback.

 

Feel free to visit our Account management page for more insight about managing your Intuit account.

 

Please let us know how you get on after performing the steps or after contacting our support as I want to ensure this is resolved for you. Just leave a comment below. You have a good one.

  1. Navigate to Settings, then select Account and Settings.
  2. From the left menu, click Billing Subscription
  3. Tick Edit beside your payment method. 
  4. Update your credit card info.
  5. Ensure the address in QuickBooks is the same as the one on your credit card statement.
  6. Once everything is good, select Confirm card or Save.

I've come to share insights about recovering your company's data file in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

We can restore your company's data file if you've exported these data before the account was inactive or canceled. 

 

If you've canceled your subscription, you'll have read-only access to your file for one year. To assist you further with your account's status, I'd suggest contacting our Customer Care Team. They have the tools to pull up and verify your account in a secure environment. Also, they'll guide you with the steps and other alternatives when recovering your account.

 

Here's how to reach them:

 

  1. In your QBO account, click Help.
  2. Click the Search tab, and click Contact Us.
  3. Enter the error message in the description box, and select Continue.
  4. Start a chat with a support expert.

 

For more detailed information, you can visit this article: What happens to my QuickBooks Online data after I cancel?

 

Moreover, you can check out this reference to guide in exporting relevant data and restoring them if you're using QBO Advanced:
