Unable To Connect To Account

The problem is back again: https://community.quicken.com/discussion/comment/20247222
Quicken decides it cannot connect to an account to download it and marks it as missing. You are supposed to add it back.

I thought I had a fix: I selected one of the accounts, clicked on the Action button and selected Update now.

That doesn't work now. This is definitely a bug in Quicken as sometimes it can connect and sometimes it says the account has to be added back.

Does Quicken support read these? If so where is the fix?

I need help. This keeps affecting different accounts. I can log into the accounts server and download to Quicken -- I just can't download via Quicken.

Here is the latest stupidity. My wife has two accounts in her name and access to two joint accounts. Tried to do a download by clicking on one of her accounts and the requesting a download. Quicken reported a problem and suggested a retry. It then produced the attached popup. Notice that three of the accounts have an add to Quicken option (even though they download normally) the account that doesn't have the add to Quicken option is the problem account.

I suggest you select Ignore in the Action pull-down menus for the accounts that already download normally.  The only bit that seem's weird is, if everything was setup properly, there should be two accounts with Don't Add to Quicken.  I suspect you may be mixing connection methods or perhaps one of the accounts isn't set up properly.
