When we are connecting to the shared file, it has long connecting times if it connects at all, sometimes an error saying something along the lines of "not enough space to update file or the file is corrupt" and then Quickbooks Desktop closes. We have 4 computers that use the shared file, 2 of the computers are having the issues regularly, and one of them is just the long connection times. The main computer has no issues at all.

Try opening the sample file, enabling the multiuser mode and accessing it from more than one user at the same time. Did you encounter the same issue?

What version of QuickBooks Mac? Is the original file on an SSD drive? Are the other computers connecting over wifi or wired?
