Where to buy QB Desktop for Mac 2020?

Does anyone know where to buy a copy of QB for Mac Desktop 2020?  I'm currently on QB Mac 2015, and  running Mac Sierra.  Because of other software issues, I will very soon need to upgrade to either High Sierra or Mojave, but not Catalina (so QB 2021 is out of the question). 

QB Mac 2015 apparently won't run on High Sierra, so I am hoping to find a copy of 2020,  I've searched high and low, but the only one i can find is a download on eBay for $50.   The price is appealing, but it makes me nervous.  I'd rather buy a packaged product. 

If anyone here knows of  source, or is willing to sell their copy of 2020, please let me know.

 

Thanks,

Brian

Hi there, @bsp seattle.

 

I'll point you in the right direction on how you can buy QuickBooks Desktop for Mac and help walk you through the whole process of how to install it on your computer.

 

To get the QBDT Mac for 2020, I'd suggest calling our Customer Care Team because they have a copy for 2020. Our support is available from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekdays and 6:00 AM - 3:00 PM on Saturdays. Please call our support within our business hours to ensure we cater to your concerns immediately.

  2. Choose QuickBooks Desktop for Mac chat.
  3. Complete the needed information, then submit the request. 

 

I'd also add instructions on how to set-up QuickBooks just incase. Once you have done buying the new version, you can now download and install it. Before doing that, make sure to check the minimum system requirements to ensure you can download smoothly. 

 

After that, prepare your license number. Please check the original purchase confirmation email or the label on the original packaging next to the UPC Code to get the number.

If you are located in the US, you may have time to purchase a new one time license of QB Desktop 2020 until next week from certain partners. For QBD 2020 Mac for 1 user, you may purchase it worth less than $325. If you hit the wall, you may contact and purchase it from us.

How can I get a license for a newer version of QB for Mac desktop that will work on my new computer running Mac OS Ventura? I know the 2021 version works; not sure about 2020. Would appreciate it so much!

Hi there,

I finally downloaded QB 2020 Mac, and successfully installed and updated my existing company files.  I now want to register the software and pay the fee, but am being asked for the "License and Product Numbers in you confirmation email".  However i didn't get a confirmation email.  What is the best way to proceed in this case?

 

Also, am i able to install on my desktop and laptop, as long as i make sure to quit before switching machines? (I keep the company files in a Dropbox folder, so they are accessible to either machine). 

 

Thanks,

Brian
