Transfer Reckon Accounts Pro 2013 to new computer

Hi there
2013 Accounts is not compatible with Windows 10. Neither is the new Accounts 2015 without a few workarounds. I would suggest buying the new 2015 software and installing that on your new computer and then backing up your current data file then you can restore and upgrade the file on the new machine and then if you have issues have a look around on this forum as there has been quite a lot posted around this.
The actual official windows 10 compatible version will be out in a couple of months.
Otherwise you could go onto ReckonOnline Hosted which means you don't have to use your computers hardware as its online so it just needs a good internet connection.
Maybe give Reckon a call and discuss or contact an accredited consultant to work with you or your accountant.
Good luck!

Oh dear. Thanks very much for your help, even though it's not really what I wanted to hear. I didn't really want to upgrade just yet as the 2013 version, with payroll, suits my purposes. It looks as if I don't have much choice

Hi again,
I just realised that, following a free upgrade shortly after I purchased the 2013 version, I now have Pro 2014. Will this make a difference in relation to compatibility with Windows 10?
Thanks for your thoughts.

Yes sorry as I said above there isn't a compatible version with windows 10 yet, only the one coming out in March/April this year. Maybe you should go onto hosted, that will save a lot of hassle going forward too!0

OK, thanks Toni. I'll keep an eye out for the new version and take it from there. Normally I can go years between upgrades so am reluctant to go onto hosted.
