When validating with the hope of fixing downloading problems,
Intuit says to deactivate ALL Quicken accounts for downloading
before doing the Validate (validate does not do a complete
validate when there are accounts activated for downloading). I
think that recommendation was made for US versions of Quicken,
but has a good chance of being true for non-US versions as well.
[Make a backup before doing this. The validate may not help,
but deactivating, then reactivating, may end up giving you many
downloaded transactions that you had already downloaded. If the
validate doesn't help and you get lots of duplicate downloads,
you can just switch to the backup.]
