QuickBooks provides a way to run the accounting aspects of your business and create accurate reports to track your company's growth. Quickbooks for Windows and Mac require a separate installation package for each operating system. You can convert your company file to a Mac-compatible version to transfer basic transaction, customer, employee and vendor data. When it comes time for taxes, you must convert the file back to a Windows-compatible format before sending your company data to an accountant that uses the QuickBooks Accountant edition. Converting to Mac When you decide to go ahead with the transfer process, you need to make sure you have installed and purchased QuickBooks on your Mac computer. You can't install the Windows version on the Mac. Convert the file by clicking the 'File' menu, selecting 'Utilities' and choosing the 'Copy Company File for QuickBooks for Mac.'
Email or transfer the file to your Mac computer and then open the file using QuickBooks for Mac. Once converted, check your accounts, customer, vendor and inventory lists to make sure all of your information transferred properly.

You must have at least QuickBooks for Mac 2007 or later to open a converted file. If you have an older version of QuickBooks for Mac, you should upgrade before attempting to import the Windows file.
If you need to convert your file back to Windows again, you can save the Mac version of the company file as a QuickBooks for Windows format from the File menu. Version Differences QuickBooks for Mac differs in many ways from the Windows version. Some of your inventory may not transfer correctly or completely.
