Is there a way to convert 2016 desktop for PC File to Mac 2020?

Hi Raeleneb,

 

Being able to freely move your company file between computers is imperative to make sure you can always access your company file. I can help go over how to do this.

 

At this time Canadian QuickBooks Desktop isn't compatible with Mac OS and won't work when installed. If you have a windows partition on your Mac you can install it on there and move the company file over using a flash drive without any issues. Should you wish to use QuickBooks on a Mac I'd suggest looking into our QuickBooks Online program as it supports all operating systems. You can find out more about QuickBooks Online here.

 

If you're using the American version of QuickBooks Desktop for Mac I suggest reaching out to our American QuickBooks community to find out more about how this can be done. You can find their community site here.

 

Have a great night!
