Quick book desk compatibility

Hello Asma1,

Welcome to the QuickBooks Community and thanks for being a part of the QuickBooks Desktop family. I know how being able to work on your preferred system can make a difference in your productivity. It's important to me that you have the information you need regarding QuickBooks Desktop and its system requirements, so I'll go over that for you here.

QuickBooks Desktop Canada operates using a Windows platform and doesn't have a Mac version of the program. That being said, there's a workaround you can consider, which is installing a partition on your system. This would virtually run a Windows operating system on your Mac and you could use QuickBooks on that section of the computer. The following article explains this option in more detail: Is there a CA version of QuickBooks Desktop for Mac?

I know that may not be the right fit for you and encourage you to go with what's best for your business and system. To learn more about what it takes to run QuickBooks Desktop, here's our article about the 2020 version of the program: System requirements for QuickBooks Desktop 2020 and Enterprise Solutions 20.0 If you're running a different version, simply search Community using keywords such as "QuickBooks Desktop system requirements" and then the year of the version you're using.
