I have been reading about the ongoing problems Q2007 users are having
downloading transactions. Is anyone having these same problems with
Q2006?

I have never had any problems downloading transactions using Quicken
2006 Premier until this past week. I have some transactions at an
investment company that have been in my account for almost a week but
have not downloaded to Quicken despite several attempts. I get no
errors and all downloads report as complete even though no
transactions are downloaded. Sounds suspiciously like what has been
happening with Q2007.

Anybody using Q2006 having a problem downloading transactions?

No problems at all (Vanguard, Fidelity). It might be your FI.

Thanks for the response. My FI is Fidelity so I'll give it another go
today to see if things have changed.

Well, it is still a no-go. I can see the new transactions when I log
into Fidelity but they seem to be "stuck" and are not downloading into
Quicken.

Never had this happen before.

Today I started having problems downloading transactions from Washington
Mutual. I am using QW 2006, and get the error message "Unable to confirm
financial institution information. Try again later." from Quicken itself, when
it processes the QFX file. I last downloaded successfully on Jan 14, 2007. I
noticed that WAMU changed the download portion of their website (sometime
between Jan 14 and Jan 21) to insert a new confirmation step. Whatever other
changes they made I don't know. The Quicken 2006 support site recognizes the
error message, and says one of the following is the problem:
1. System clock is incorrect on my computer (it's not).
2. Back-level Quicken version prior to 2002. (Duh. No, it's QW 2006.)
3. Financial institution information is corrupted. Deactivate online services
for the account and then reactivate.

Hmmm, uh... ok. (No.3), I looked at the QFX file and compared the info to the
"Account Overview" section in Quicken for the subject account, and it all
matches. What happens when I "deactivate" online services (it's my primary
checking account)? The Quicken web site does not say anything about what I am
letting myself in for. Does anybody know? It's been so long ago that I
activated the service that I don't remember the process (is there a delay, do I
have to talk to somebody at the FI, will I lose any of my current FI data on
Quicken... etc etc.)

Help!
