I was really worried when this error came up. I never thought about the physical backup. Had to shut QB down to do so, started it back up, and the backup ran fine; no error – no need to run the rebuild data at this time either.

Thanks for the tip!

Sorry, Carol, you must be using the Australian version, and I don’t have any connections with Reckon (the people who distribute QB down your way). They make their own changes to the product, so they have a unique version.

We are experiencing a problem with our payroll 2011/2012 ,the tax amounts were not calculating correctly so we run a rebuild and now YTD figures are not on payslips.
Do you have any solutions please

I love you Charlie for your insite and help to Quickbooks users!!! I have recently after the payroll update 21011 had the message Problem can’t back up the data, Solution Rebuild. Did it twice. Worked after that. However, most recently I had a run time error visual C++ Redistributable with a reference to Quickbooks qb the exe file. It was I believe a R6205 error. I posted it on the community site for quickbooks. I was editing an Estimate when it occurred. I found something wherein if you had in an Item Description an apostrophe ‘ or an open bracked [ or a double quote “, which we did contractor business 4′ x 4′ – so I eliminated that and we will see. Funny I had no problems with QB for about 4 years until the new software, new pc…hope they work together (the software) soon!!!!

Again, thanks for being there for us. Faye
