Updating or Downloading Any Account Hangs

Whenever I try to update (either an individual account or a One-Step Update), it ends up hanging.

This suddenly started happening on Friday May 5th.

It actually seemed to corrupt my data file (thankfully, I had a backup that was from the previous day).

I've seen a post about crashes happening when updating, not sure if it's just manifesting differently for me or I'm seeing a different problem.

    Hello @k_man81,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Quicken Community, though I do apologize that you are experiencing this issue.

    To clarify, when running a One Step Update or an individual account update, the program "hangs" and processes slowly?

    If so, I suggest that you please try validating and/or super validating your data file. However, I do recommend that you first save a backup file prior to performing these steps.

    Validate

    1. File
    2. Validate and Repair File...
    3. Validate File
    4. Click OK
    5. Close the Data Log
    6. Close Quicken (leave it closed for at least 5 secs)
    7. Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists.

    If the issue persists, proceed to Super Validate. If the issue is resolved after performing validation, then please disregard the instructions to Super Validate.

    Super Validate:

    1. File
    2. Hold CTRL + Shift and click Validate and Repair File...
    3. Super Validate File
    4. Click OK
    5. Close the Data Log
    6. Close Quicken (leave it closed for at least 5 secs)
    7. Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists.


    I hope this helps!

    Thanks for the response, Jasmine,

    Unfortunately, I had already tried Validating, and it didn't make a difference. And I just tried the Super Validation, and that also made no difference.

    It appears that it does successfully pull down from Investment accounts, and then hangs when it tries to pull down from any bank or credit card accounts.

    (also a note on the "super validate" - it ended up increasing the size of my file by 6 MB (from 341MB to 347MB)…which seems very odd)

    @Quicken Jasmine - Seems to actually be working, today. (no app update, just tried again)

    Would really love some sort of a status view to show how all of the remote services are working. Like a per institution view with green (all good), yellow (some issues reported), red (not working correctly), just so end users know what to expect - or are able to tell whether the problem is on our end, or on the Quicken end.

    -Thanks!
