Question

Quickbooks Desktop 2020 compatibility with MAC Sonoma

I have resisted upgrading my MAC specifically because I was told Sonoma would not work with my Quickbooks Desktop 2020. Somehow my MAC upgraded to Sonoma today. I use everything manually with my quickbooks version. I do not connect online to the bank, or payroll nor do my customers pay me through Quickbooks. Does anyone know what functionality I will lose?

As I know you can still run QBD 2019 or newer in Sonoma. Did you encounter any issue?

I appreciate the information you've shared regarding your concern, @gardensbyellen.

 

When using QuickBooks 2020 with an upgraded macOS Sonoma, you won't experience any loss of functionality. However, you may encounter compatibility issues.

 

If you want to keep using QuickBooks 2020, you'll need to downgrade your operating system to ensure it works properly with your QuickBooks version. You can reach out to Mac Support for guidance if you need help with the process.

 

  1. Go to Help, then select QuickBooks Help.
  2. Click Contact Us.
  3. Give a brief description of your issue, then click Continue.
  4. Select to chat with us or Have us call you.

 

On the other hand, if you'd like to stay with your current operating system, you may consider upgrading your version to QuickBooks Mac 2024, as this seamlessly runs the Mac OS Sonoma without any issues or complications. 

 

To learn more about how you can benefit from the latest Mac version, explore this article for more details: What's new in QuickBooks Mac Plus 2024.

 

I'll be around if you have further questions about compatibility. Take care

I have quickbookds for Mac 2020 and resisted upgrading for fear of not having my quickbooks work.  I only send estimates and invoices and an occasional schedule..With the new Sonoma 14.6 work with this program

You can still run QBD 2020 on Sonoma with minor issues. You can also contact @Fiat Lux - ASIA for advise. They can share another option for your case.
