QuickBooks 2013 manual firewall ports or use the QB File Doctor to fix

In a Windows 8 environment for an office in San Diego the following firewall ports need to be open. The list below is painful, so we downloaded and ran the QuickBooks File Doctor. That too took 10 minutes to run and ultimately said the file was fine, but in reality it added 6 exceptions to the firewall.

OR - you can do it the manual way here!

The following files access through your firewall on ports 80, 8019, 56723, and 55353 through 55357 for both incoming and outgoing traffic:

AutoBackupExe.exe located in C:\Program Files\Intuit\QuickBooks 2013

Dbmlsync.exe located in C:\Program Files\Intuit\QuickBooks 2013

DBManagerExe.exe located in C:\Program Files\Intuit\QuickBooks 2013

FileManagement.exe located in C:\Program Files\Intuit\QuickBooks 2013

Follow the instructions included in the QuickBooks file list above in combination with the instructions on the firewall maker’s web site (some common firewalls are listed below) to configure your firewall to allow Internet access to the QuickBooks files.

Note: Intuit is unable to supply information for all of the several hundred firewall programs available today. The links in the following list lead to information for some of the more common firewalls. If your firewall is not listed here, refer to your software's documentation or the software publisher's web site.
