This can happen if there are cache issues within the browser that you're using, Playawest45.

 

You can follow some troubleshooting steps to make sure you're logged in successfully to your Community account.

 

First, let's add Intuit to your browser's list of trusted sites. This will prevent your browser from blocking content and ensure a smoother experience when logging in.

 

Then, remove your browser's cached data and any cookies related to Intuit. For detailed instructions that are specific to the browser you're using, check out this guide: Clear cache and cookies to fix issues when using QuickBooks.

 

After that, log back in and continue posting inquiries in the forum.

 

Please know that you can always reply or post new inquiries if you need anything else.

Completed the Google Chrome instructions for adding Intuit.

Not using Safari

Could not follow the Microsoft Edge Instructions.

Selected …

Select Settings.

Manage cookies

Selected see all cookies and site data.

Searched and found intuit.com

 

For clearing cache, I followed instructions for Google Chrome

I followed the instructions for Microsoft with the add step of turning back on the sync.

Was able to log in although do not understand why the post using a different log on shows here. 

Thanks

Just to clarify. Worked with Google Chrome and not with Microsoft Edge.

Thanks for getting involved with this thread, Westknight.

 

Since you're having issues accessing or signing in to the Community, I'd initially recommend troubleshooting your browser. It's possible this could have something to do with temporary internet files. Web browsers save these files, and sometimes they can cause issues when viewing certain webpages.

 

Here's how to troubleshoot the browser you're using:

 

  1. Try using a private or incognito window in your web browser.
  2. Restart the browser and see if you're able to select accounts afterwards.
  3. Clear your browser's cached data.
  4. Add Intuit as a trusted website.

 

If you've tried each of the troubleshooting processes mentioned above, but are still encountering the same messages when trying to access or sign in to the QuickBooks Community, you can try some of the steps in our Recover your Intuit Account if you can’t sign in article if you're experiencing issues signing in.

 

In the event you're already signed in, but still encountering problems accessing the Community, you'll want to get in touch with our Customer Care team. They'll be able to pull up your account in a secure environment, conduct further research with you, and create an investigation ticket if necessary.

 

I'll be here to help if there's any questions. Have a wonderful Monday!

There's nothing wrong with your browser.  It's how the Quickbooks sites handles cookies.   I can only login to QB community via incognito window.

 

Amazing how significantly smaller companies have no issue with this but a company with Intuit's resources can't figure it out.

I am not using the incognito window. Yes, there is a problem how Quickbooks sites uses cookies. It is difficult to sign into  this Quickbooks Desktop account as Intuit website assumes I am trying to log into Quickbooks Online. It is difficult to switch. Have to go to a computer that did not have Quickbooks Online log in
