Moving Turbo Tax Business to a new computer
I filed our business taxes (both Fed and State) with TurboTax Business on a Windows 10 machine in March. I currently have a TurboTax Advantage subscription. I am trying to move my data to a new Windows 11 machine. I have done everything that was spelled out on how to transfer:
1. Install TurboTax Business -- DONE
2. Copy data from old machine onto flashdrive and move to new machine -- DONE
3. Bring up Turbo Tax, and VOILA it should be there. NOT HAPPENING.
When I attempt to bring up my datafile in TurboTax, it says Error 199: State forms are missing. It then wants to dwonload the state forms. But the list doesn't include the forms I would need, and I already had those on the old machine (or I couldn't have filed.) I am at my wits end. The data file opens on the old machine.
To move the files from the old machine to the flash drive I have tried:
1. Copy/Paste command
2. Control C/V
3. Drag/Drop
4. I even opened TurboTax on the old machine and actually saved the filed off ("save as" command) to the flash drive location. None of these made any difference.
What do I do now?
