How to open QB2013 file?

The most common problem when using QuickBooks 2013 For Mac Backup is that a specific QB2013 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open QB2013, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the QB2013 file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install QuickBooks

In this case, you should first verify that the QuickBooks application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name QuickBooks in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file QB2013.

Programs to open QB2013 file

Remember to download programs supporting QB2013 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of QuickBooks with QB2013 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the QB2013 file still does not use the QuickBooks program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the QuickBooks application as the default for handling the QB2013 file.

Step 3. Update QuickBooks to the latest version

If, despite the association of the QuickBooks program with the QuickBooks 2013 For Mac Backup file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Intuit Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the QB2013 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the QB2013 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our QB2013 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover QB2013 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the QB2013 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged QB2013 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Intuit Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted QB2013 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move QB2013 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
