I'm sorry you ran ran into this Transfer (146) issue. It will be fixed ASAP.  In the meantime, there's a workaround you might want to use if you have one or two of these.

1. Create a New Client

2. Choose File-> Transfer Clients and select "Complete Transfer". Browse for the file you'd like to transfer. 

If you have a lot you would probably want to wait a week or so until a fix goes out. Again, I'm sorry you ran into this issue and appreciate your patience.

Same here.  Some came over and some didn't.  Tried updating the software as well. Same thing.  Not trying to rush the season, just trying to get some little things done in advance.😉

I was on with tech support this AM (Monday 16th). She suggested I check to make sure my Windows 10 was updated. This took some time and she advised me how to complete the process once 10 was updated and moved on. I did what she advised and still came up this this same error (146). Perhaps giving Intuit some time, since it is early will help.....
