Dealing with unusual responses in the online program can be challenging. Let's work together to troubleshoot and ensure a smooth experience with QuickBooks Online (QBO).
QuickBooks Online (QBO) performance depends on your computer's processing power, internet connection bandwidth, and available memory (RAM). If any of these areas are lacking, it may affect its performance.
Ensure a seamless experience with the online program by checking out this article: System requirements for QuickBooks Online products. It outlines the system requirements your computer and browser should meet for optimal usage
If your device meets the specifics listed in the article, launch QBO in incognito mode or private browsing. This prevents internet files from being saved, eliminating the potential for webpage issues.
Here are the shortcut keys in each browser:
Once logged in, create a journal entry and enter the account number or tab from one field to another. If you can carry out these tasks smoothly, clear your browser's cache to improve browsing performance and resolve loading issues. Otherwise, utilize a supported browser to determine if the current one you're using is causing the problem.
I've got this great resource that contains tips to improve the working performance of QBO: Why is my QuickBooks Online slow?

Why is this also happening in the quickbooks online app? It seems to me that if it was a cache issue it wouldn't also be happening in the app. Usually the app is more stable than the version you use din the browser.
Thanks for checking back with us, @TH76.

Unfortunately I don't see storage as an option. I'm using a new laptop with W11. Does that make a difference?
We appreciate you getting back here in the thread, @TH76. We'll share details to help you get through this and improve your QuickBooks Online (QBO) experience.
Please be aware that the QBO mobile app and the browser version have different interface or view designs. That said, what the previous representative's steps provided can only be performed using the mobile app, and some options won't be available if you're using the web version of the program.
