Hello
@Hubby
,
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 see 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.
Let me know how it goes!

I was really hoping that would work. I had not tried that and the names had to be reset to match but I am still getting the same message on my mobile - "Connectivity Error - this usually happens if an account name changed at your bank. To fix deactivate and reactivate" - which I have done twice.

Hello
@Hubby
,
Thank you for providing more information and for attempting those troubleshooting steps, though I apologize that they did not assist us in reaching a resolution.
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 and see whether or not the errors you were receiving persist. You can then also delete the new file you previously created as well as its cloud account.
Please let me know how this goes!

Thanks for the quick follow up. Did all that. Regrettably, same error and issue. Just with all the accounts with M&T bank. Other accounts synching correctly FYI.

Thank you for attempting that.
I have located a support article that discusses some troubleshooting steps to take when facing issues with your Quicken Mobile application. You may follow this

to access that FAQ. It is recommended to
save a backup
before proceeding (just in case).
I hope this helps!
