The “QuickBooks Payroll Internet Connection Error” often occurs when QuickBooks can’t connect to the server due to internet issues or incorrect settings. To resolve this:
- Check Internet Connection: Ensure your internet is stable. Try browsing a website to confirm your connection is working.
- Verify Internet Settings in QuickBooks:
- Go to Help > Internet Connection Setup.
- Select “Use my computer’s internet connection settings to establish a connection,” and then click Next.
- Disable Firewall and Security Software Temporarily: Sometimes firewalls block QuickBooks from accessing the internet. Temporarily disable any firewall or antivirus, then try updating payroll again. If it works, add QuickBooks as an exception in your security software.
- Update QuickBooks to the Latest Version: Ensure your QuickBooks is up to date. Go to Help > Update QuickBooks Desktop and check for any available updates.
After following these steps, try updating payroll again. If the issue persists, contacting QuickBooks Support is recommended.
