Marie Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Posted January 26, 2012 Can someone give me a resource/knowledge base from ATX so I can move 2 years files(10 and install 11) to my networked computer. My helper is ready to work, but we don't know how to get the returns to her computer. Quote
Dale in IN Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 I Transfered Tax years 2003-2011 used WINDOWS EASY TRANSFER in WINDOWS 7. You have to have easy transfer running on both computers. If you do not have Easy Transfer on your old computer you can down load it from the Internet. I used wireles net work to do it. Once you get Easy Transfer set on both computers follow the Instruction on your screen. Choose only 1 folder at a time or it will try to transfer your whole disk. I moved the year I wanted to transfer into the shared folder. Then I transfered The complete program client base and all. It take about 20 to 30 Minnetes for each year. Depending on how large your client base is. Once it finishes go in with exployer and find your netset up file and run it .Tthis should put your i-con on the desk top. Then open your tax program and see if your client base is there and then see if you can open one.If that works try printing a page. If this does not work you may have to delete it out on the new computer and do it over. If all OK you go to the next year that you want to transfer and do the same. I tried transfering the whole disk and my client base did not transfer right. However if you do 1 year at a time like I have instructed I belive it will work. No guarentee and you may have to expermint some .Dale Quote
TaxCPANY Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 Umm, Marie, IF you're trying to move ATX from a Windows XP to a Windows 7 system, and if you haven't used Windows Easy Transfer, already, DON'T! Lookup Jack from Ohio's advice, instead. WET hosed my Win7 machine so bad, I had to restore it to "factory settings;" lost *major* hours re-starting everything. Best o' luck, TaxCPANY Quote
Eric Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 I didn't see the thread TaxCPANY was referring to, but here's another: If you're having trouble with any of the steps, let us know which one(s) and we'll try to help 1 Quote
