Question

How do I ask a question to the QBO community?

I can see questions, I have asked questions in the past, but it is always a head scratcher on how to post a question. I know I am asking a question here, but it is in totally the wrong part of the community. Is there a phone number to speak to someone on how to use the community?

 

By the way, Intuit, if you are reading this, your community IT is a hot mess.

    Hey there, @Service.

     

    Thanks for taking the time to reach out here in the Community. You've come to the right place for assistance with all things QuickBooks.

     

    I'd be glad to show you how to get your question posted in the correct area:

     

    1. Upon logging in, hover over the Community tab at the top of the page.

    2. Click the QuickBooks Q&A board to see all of the product sections offered. 

    3. Choose the topic you'd like to ask a question about.

    4. Select the green Start a discussion button in the top right corner.

    5. Type up the subject, enter your question, then click Post.

     

    That will do it. I also recommend checking out this article about Getting Started in QB Community by my colleague @MichaelDL.

     

    I'm only a post or comment away if you need any additional assistance. Take care!

    Why does Choose File prevent me to post my question.   I don't have a file to choose.

    Thanks for joining the thread and letting us know about this QuickBooks community concern, @steinv.

     

    You should be able to post questions here in the community without any file attachments. If you encounter any issues posting your question on a browser, try running some browser troubleshooting steps and see if it fixes the problem.

     

    Unexpected issues within this page can sometimes be affected by the amount of data stored in the cache. This is because a regular browser will constantly overwrite itself and will not remove history unless done manually.

     

    Private browsing will not save any history, so it's a great place to identify issues in the browser. Use this keyboard shortcut to launch a new private window for Google Chrome, press Ctrl Shift N.

     

    If it works, clear the cache to resolve browser issues in QBO. Using a different browser can also help.

     

    Kindly update me with the result. I want to make sure this community page issue is resolved and you're able to pull up the accurate data successfully.

    Hello @Rick Harris,

     

    Unexpected browsing behaviors can be caused by the saved cache and site history stored in your browser. Let's clear them so you can post a question successfully.

     

    To do so, let's start by using a private or incognito window of your browser. You can follow the following shortcut keys below for easy navigation:

    • Google Chrome: Ctrl Shift N
    • Mozilla Firefox and Safari: Ctrl Shift P

    If it works, you can clear your regular browser's cache to let it start browsing from scratch. But if not, you can use one of our other supported browser apps instead.

     

    Additionally, you can also browse for the content of this helpful article about the different methods you can start using to interact with us: Check Out Our Community Guidelines and Meet the Team!

     

    If you have any other questions, you can always leave them in the comments below. I'll be here to address them. Stay safe!

    I also get the authentication failed message. How do you resolve in MS Edge?
