Mobile App not syncing
mjpmcnulty
A number of my accounts will not sync with either the Mobile App or Quicken on the Web. Also neither the mobile nor the web has recorded any transactions. All I see is the balances for some of my accounts. I'm going to be travelling for three months and won't have access to me home desktop. Any ideas out there?

Hello
@mjpmcnulty
&
@12337
,
Thank you for reaching out to the Community to tell us about your issue, though I apologize that you are experiencing this.
If you haven't already, I suggest
resetting your cloud data
from your Quicken desktop program and seeing if that may make a difference. However, before doing so, first, verify that the
Dataset name
and the
File name
match each other identically by navigating to
Edit > Preferences > Quicken ID & Cloud Accounts
(
see below
).
If they do not match, please click
Edit dataset name
and change the Dataset name to match the
File name exactly the same (
do not copy the file extension: ".QDF"
).
Then, click
OK
in the preferences window and proceed to save a backup (
just in case
). From there, please follow the steps below to
reset your cloud data
.
Sign out
of your
Quicken Mobile/Web app(s)
On your desktop program go to
Edit
Preferences...
Mobile & Web
Make sure sync shows it's
ON
and click on
Reset your cloud data
On the following screen you can leave the preselected option for "
No, just reset my Cloud data
", type
Yes
in the entry field to confirm, and click
Reset
Wait for the sync reset to finish
Navigate to the
Mobile & Web
dropdown menu
Select
Cloud Sync
to resync your data and to make sure no errors occur
Wait for it to finish syncing
Sign back in on your Quicken Mobile/Web app(s)
Once that is done, see if the issue still persists.
I hope this helps!

Unfortunately that hasn't helped. Once I do the reset I get a message saying "RBC Royal Bank" was not synced. Refresh your "it names one of my accounts" data and try again. Trying again does nothing and on the app there's still no transaction showing for the accounts that have sync'd the balance.

Thank you for following up.
Since, unfortunately, the previous steps have failed so far, next, I suggest you try manually resetting your cloud data by creating a test file and deleting your cloud account from that test file. After that, you would attempt to resync your main data file which should then create a new cloud account (
this does not affect your data saved within that data file
).
First, please proceed to save a backup (
just in case
). From there, create a new data file (
click
here
to view instructions, and review the section titled: "
Creating a new file
"
). Once the new file opens, follow the steps below to remove your main data file's cloud account.
Go to
Edit
Preferences
Quicken ID & Cloud Accounts
Click
Cloud accounts associated with this Quicken ID (#)
(
this is not a button, it is written in blue underneath the
"Edit dataset name" button
)
Select the
Cloud Account Name
used for your main data file and click
Delete
Type
Yes
and click
Delete
After that, switch back to your main data file (
click
here
to view instructions, scroll down and review the section titled: "
How to alternate between multiple files"
).
Once your main file opens, resync your data by navigating to the
Mobile & Web
tab and clicking on the blue
Get Started
button, and then the blue
Sync Now
button. You can then also delete the new file you previously created as well as its cloud account.
I hope this helps!

Same result I'm afraid.
