Quickbooks 5.0 .qbb file - can it be opened by Quickbooks 2011? Is it possible to open a Quickbooks 5.0 .qbb file in Quickbooks 2011?

Not successfully, I am in the process of doing this over the last few days... I bought QB 2011, installed in on a Windows 7 64 bit PC, that was ok. Then the the 'fun' began, tried for 3 hours myself to get my QB 2005 company data file (either the .QQB version or the .QWB) to work, each time it crashed QB 2011. Then spent 3 plus hours on the phone with tier one and two QB tech support with them getting the same problems after trying just about everything! Now they "think" the fix is that the 2005 files needs to go to their 'File Fix' expert team, this will take about 5 business days. Please note my QB 2005 and the 2005 file work perfectly fine in my QB 2005 software. Now I am waiting for 5 more days.... I can only hope this resolves the problem. I'm NOT a happy QuickBooks customers right now! Good Luck, i think you will need it....

As far as I can tell, it can read files created by any previous version. You'd have to enquire of someone else as to the compatibility with previous versions of the files Acrobat XI writes.

The ones I purchased were compatible with QBooks; however, when I ordered these forms in December 2014, I received 1099s for 2013! Amazon gave a credit to my account. I didn't re-order but used the free ones from the IRS instead since I only had a few to do anyway.

You can make a copy of your company file to send to your Accountant and he will be able to open the copy and work with it, but he will not be able to send back a copy with changes that you can use. He can list the changes he makes but you will have to enter manually. I hope that helps! Karl Sexton Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor Accounting On-Call, LLC Tampa, Brandon, Riverview (813) 787-7855

Not sure who "they" are, but you get genuine QuickBooks and whatever support is advertised with the particular package you may purchase. I have both QuickBooks 2012 (single), and QuickBooks 2013, 3 user.

I have the 2012 version. Love it! Do you mean to purchase it, or did you mean to access YOUR old files on your PC. If on your PC, click previous version, on purchasing the 2012 version, I'd say do search online & state you want that year version, same as if you were trying to purchase an old book...

I believe it depends on the version of MS Word that you have. My MS Word on my Macbook Air has Word 2011 and I've been able to open and save documents from a PC that has Word 2003. Where it gets tricky is when you are trying to open a document saved in a version that is more recent that what you have. This is more of an issue of MS Word software and not the computer itself.

I'm not familiar with the neat scanner, I do not use quickbooks, and I also do not use Windows 8. If you can upload PDFs to quickbooks then you should be able to upload PDFs scanned by this scanner. I used this scanner with Windows XP. Regarding using it on Windows 8, I would go onto the Fujitsu website to see if they say if the drivers they have for this scanner work with WIndows 8.

Bottom line, it should work. The layout standards of the form are set by the government. So Copy A, etc. should work, or Quickbooks has a form problem. The only wild card would be the 1096 summary form which is not required if you efile your information returns. Otherwise, it too needs to comply to Government determined layout standards. Hope this helps.

I bought mine on ebay, for a reduced price. It was new, but for me still a waste of money. I have not been able to use it, as the bottom of the UI screen ends up below my physical screen, and there is no scroll bar to remedy this, at least not in my version, I have Quickbooks Accountant 2013. I tried for a long time to fix this, and though it was I who was doing something wrong, until I finally found several reports on Google regarding the same issue! No scroll bars, so I cannot scroll down to the bottom of the screen, where there are buttons that I need to use. So for me at least, this is a white elephant. You may want to research this before buying, or buy a different version. I would check a different version too first, to make sure this bug/issue is not there as well.

Read the reviews on the 2012 vs. and I think you will see that the 2011 vs. may not have the issues that the newer vs. does. I have used QuickBooks Pro in the past, beginning in 2002 and the last year was 2008. I was very impressed with the ease of use and the ability to make corrections to posting without having to do journal entries, ie. just fix the posting. The payroll, when I was doing it came with the annual upgrade for free, so I upgraded annually. There was no limit on the number of employees, or if there was we never reached it. Our highest employee count was probably twenty. But having read the reviews for 2012 I am wondering if I want to install for my new start-up company. Maybe the 2011 for now and see what else is out there before we have employees.

Yes. Here is the official Intuit position on this: "With a single-user license, you can install QuickBooks on 1 computer and on 1 additional portable computer (e.g., a laptop that you own and use in your business) as long as both devices are used by the same person. ONLY that specified person can access and use QuickBooks on both computers." My note: the second computer does NOT need to be a laptop or portable, but the rest of the conditions apply. Let me know if you need more info.

Quickbooks Pro 2012 2011 can certainly look at 2009..what hogwash! If your accountant told you that, then get rid of them. They certainly are not that familiar with QuickBooks. In the Denver metro area at least, almost all small businesses use some form of QuickBooks. It is the best software for small businesses.

I purchased it and it flat out didn't work. I don't know if they are still doing support for this product or what ended up happening. But when I was using the product for another company, as soon as our contract was up we conveniently started having issues. So use with caution. We moved on to trying quick books online. Good luck.

Returned ours and can't help, but it looks like others have helped you already. Oh...we returned ours because it was not compatible with our QuickBooks through our offsite server. It worked just fine, though.

I purchased last year with the then current Quickbooks POS. It wasn't listed as compatible but one of the preloaded configurations worked when connected. Hope this helps.

this month, QuickBooks doesn't seem to work on any of my techno stuff... partially but not fully operational on anything... HP & ACER laptops (3 years old) - home built destop - nor IPad (never used on it... need much more room to see) so the mini is a choice.
