• INSTALL JAVA - If Fishbowl isn't running at all, it may be necessary to install Java 8 which can be downloaded by clicking here and selecting jre-8u121-macosx-x64.dmg
• FISHBOWL ANYWHERE - To use Fishbowl Anywhere, replace Applications/Fishbowl/webclient/bin/start.sh with the file in this zip file. Follow the instructions above for fixing permissions. Open the Fishbowl Client to enable Fishbowl Anywhere, and set the password. Open the terminal and execute start.sh using the commands below.

cd /Applications/Fishbowl/webclient/bin

Integrate with QuickBooks

QuickBooks Desktop only runs on Windows computers. The Mac version of the Fishbowl Server can integrate with QuickBooks on a Windows computer, or a Mac running Windows as a virtual machine. NOTE: If the Fishbowl Server is running on a Windows computer, these steps are not necessary. Alternatively, Fishbowl can integrate with QuickBooks Online or Xero, which don't require a Windows computer.

Complete the steps below to allow the Fishbowl Server on a Mac to communicate with a Windows QuickBooks installation.

1. Copy Fishbowl Nexus.exe from the Mac (Applications/Fishbowl/server/bin/) to a folder located on the Windows computer. Fishbowl Nexus must be running for the export to work. Placing the program in the Startup folder will allow the program to start automatically when the computer reboots.
2. Run Fishbowl Nexus.exe on the Windows computer. The Fishbowl Nexus icon will appear on the taskbar.
3. Open the Fishbowl Server and the Fishbowl Client on the Mac.
