Error code 12029 in QuickBooks Desktop can occur when there's a network timeout or the software cannot connect to the server. It's typically encountered during payroll updates, application updates, or when attempting to connect to the internet.

Below are steps to troubleshoot and resolve this error:

Verify that you can access secure websites outside of QuickBooks.

1. Download and run the TLS 1.2 Utility.
2. Use a web browser, such as Google Chrome, to check if you can access a secure website outside of QuickBooks Desktop, such as your bank's sign-in page.

Note: If you're unable to access a secure website outside of QuickBooks, consult a computer or IT expert.
