Quicken2005 Forced Upgrade III - Seems They Lied geoff 01-31-2008

Starting Tuesday, Jan 29, I could not download transactions from my bank.
My bank confirmed there was a problem.

On Thursday, the same week, my bank told me the problems had been resolved,
however, I still could not download.

I found a link to a quicken faq on copying the quicken files, verifying
them, clearing any errors, and downloading. That did not work.

I talked to my sister and she said she got an update from quicken saying if
she did not upgrade in 10 days, her service would not work.

So, I updated to Q2008 and all the downloads work perfectly.

Thanks Quicken!

My Q2005 Deluxe is still humming right along, downloading
everything without a hitch: I expect it to continue to do so
until at least April 30.

I think you have confused correlation with causation; I think
Q2005 won't sunset until April 30.

Did you have any issues last week? Me and my sister are in the southeast US
and it stopped working Tuesday morning.

No, no problems. I have, over the past several months, had the
occasional problem with security price downloads, but even that
has never been as bad for me as reported by others ... and it's
not related so sunsetting. All my financial institution
transactions have consistently downloaded without problem.

Sorry, I meant to add that I'm in Florida; but I don't think
that geography has anything to do with sunsetting.
