Hi Beverly,I am guessing you mean MYOB Plus 12 the US release from 2002 and not the Australian version MYOB Premier v12 which is recent. If your situation is the former unfortunately there is no option but to upgrade your software in order to convert the data file. The bright side is that as long as you own the copy of MYOB 12 you can upgrade for the upgrade price vs the full retail price. ($159.00 single user upgrade) Give them a call they can check your status via the serial #.If this is still cost prohibitive my only recommendation is to: a) Download the trial version for a TEMPORARY fix (30 days to use for free) AND b) by the end of the 30 days make sure you have the $$ to upgrade because without a current license your data file will become READ ONLY. Additionally, you will not be able to use it with the older software should you have decided the newer version is not for you. If you are referring to the more recent version of the software your new laptop should meet the minimum system requirements for the product.In either case, give them a call to better weigh out your options.Best of luck

If you re having difficulty installing it, then you should post error messages, etc.
