Hello there, @Jay205.

I'm here to provide clarification as to why you don't have the prompt to get the desktop app on your end. 

We can manually download and install the QuickBooks Desktop for MacBook. Before downloading the new app, ensure to quit all QuickBooks apps and QuickView from running.

To download, here's how: 

1. Follow this Download link to download the new QuickBooks app for Mac.
2. Follow the instructions on the download page.
3. If you see this message, An older item named "QuickBooks" already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the newer one you're moving to, just click Replace. 

After that, launch the new QuickBooks app for Mac by following the steps below: 

1. Go to the Finder icon on the bottom left corner of your Mac and click the Applications folder. 
2. Select Always Allow if this message pops up: QuickBooks wants to use your confidential information stored in Intuit ID... in your keychain. This is simply macOS validating the new application.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
