Mortgage Accounts - Not Updating Principle Balance

Hi! Hope you guys can help me. I just bought Quicken this morning and I've spent most of the day linking all my accounts and bills. Some things I'm doing manually.
I own two homes, both with mortgages and while I was able to properly link the accounts, the mortgages do not currently show as having any of the principle paid off. It still shows the current amount as being the initial purchase price. Any idea what I need to do? Not sure why it's not updating. One of the homes I've since paid off about $80k of mortgage principle, and the other only about $10k. Thank you!

I'd love an answer to this as well...why give an option to connect to online banking if the account needs to be manual? Does the online banking for mortgages not work?0

As to why, we can only speculate. I suspect someone thought it might be simpler to hide the loan details from users but, as originally implemented and even with the recent patches, I think it was one of those bad ideas that some users got hooked on. But of course, online must be better than offline. Except when it isn't.0
