An error while attempting to find QuickBooks

Asked By Donald V Roark 0 points N/A Posted on - 03/06/2013

I have an issue with QuickBooks. I encounter an error saying that my computer cannot connect to it and there is an error trying to find QuickBooks.

Below is the error message I have encountered:

Could not connect to QuickBooks.

An error while attempting to find QuickBooks.

QuickBooks may not be installed properly on this machine

Try restarting your machine. If that does not work, repairing QuickBooks from the Windows Add/Remove Programs Control Panel may resolve this issue.

If you are using Excel 2012 64 bit, this feature is not supported and will not work. Consider using the 32 bit version of Excel 2010.

Error: 429: ActiveX component can’t create object.

I did all the basic troubleshooting but to no avail. Anyone here has an idea to resolve this issue? Any help would be highly appreciated.

An error while attempting to find QuickBooks

Hi,

According to your description. This kind of problem does not occur to every computer. The possible reason for this problem is when the component object model cannot create the requested automation object, which is unavailable to visual basic because of:

1. A mistake in the application, or

2. A mistake in the system configuration, or

3. A missing component or damage component.

Try to solve that damage part with the attachment I gave you.

Good luck.
