Error Codes
These solutions were
contributed by technicians in QuickBooks
Technical Support, when they were
participating in the CompuServe QuickBooks
Forum.
C=3, C=9, or C=10
1. Hard drive full or nearly full.
2. When backing up, disk is not usable
3. When restoring, backup disk is bad
(Ouch!) Try copying to the hard drive
(do not overwrite anything) and restoring
from there.
C=19
When running Condense Data, file is too large
(reported from one user, with a file size of
52 MB. Other live with larger files.)
C=21
1. Seen after upgrading to a new
version of QuickBooks, related to payroll
operations. Recommended fix was to open
a new directory for QuickBooks, and install
the earlier version there. Then the
backup of the earlier file was restored
there, and Rebuild Data run on the restored
file.
C=32, or Error -35
File has been used in a later version of
QuickBooks. Each new version of
QuickBooks has used an updated data
structure, and files can’t be used in an
earlier version.
C=43 or 44
QuickBooks encountered a problem in reading
the file. These problems can usually be
cured with one or more passes of Rebuild Data.
C=47
Possibly due to low memory. Try
Clicking Window|Close All,
and starting again. Look at the
Preferences|View|Desktop. If the
desktop is saved when closing the company,
but never cleared, too many windows could be
open. Also hit Control-Escape, and
check the task list, to see if other programs
could be terminated. In Windows, set up
a large, permanent virtual memory swap
file. If these do not help. try Verify
and Rebuild.
C=51
Seen in QuickBooks 3.0. Variously
described as a benign error (keep going) or
various fixes prescribed. The first is
to exit QuickBooks, exit Windows, and start
again. Verify release 7 or later. More
severe is Rebuild Data. Lastly (for the
skilled and courageous) add to WIN.INI, under
[Windows] DefaultQueueSize=16 if you know how
to do that safely.
C=53
Restore last backup. Rebuild may be
tried, but is not hopeful. Seen in
earlier versions, and may be reason to buy
later version.
C=88
Check and correct the file system, then
restore recent backup. This error
indicates that QuickBooks can’t read the
file, probably due to external damage to a
file. If the file will load, Rebuild
Data can be tried, but is not likely to work.
C=102
Try Rebuild. This error is a rare
thing, and Tech Support was asking people to
call in so they could get details of the
problem.
C=147
Benign error. Keep Working, so Tech Support said.
Error -210
Seen only in conjunction with Error C=53.
C=212
File has been used in later version. See C=32.
C=225, C=260 or C=265
Try Rebuild Data. That failing, call Tech Support.
C=304
QuickBooks can’t create image (.qbi) file,
either due to lack of disk space, or network
limitations. The image file is created
when a company file is opened, and deleted
when the company file is closed.
C=315
Possibly data related, fixed by Rebuild Data.
If found in list activities, such as a list report, indicates a list problem. Use Re-sort list.
Look for low memory. A conflict with
other programs is possible. The test is
in shutting down other programs, and seeing
if the problem disappears. This error
would be less likely with QuickBooks 5 and
Windows 95. (Please remember, I am not
selling either, just telling you what seems
to work.)
C=339
Memory is too full to send any other message. Refer above to C=47.
