Well, this error is back. Not connecting all week. Tried Quicken Copy of my database. Same error. Can log into Sallie Mae website with the same credentials.

This has been ongoing for the last week and on and off for the last 2 months. When will it be fixed? I uploaded all info. Quicken 27.1.64.65, latest Windows 11 25H2 all patches. I am reticent to update to latest Quicken, because every time I update, Quicken breaks another account download.

    Hello @Rick8,

    Thanks for sharing the details. The CC-505 error occurs when Quicken is unable to communicate with your bank’s servers. Even if you can log into Sallie Mae directly, this error usually indicates a temporary issue on their side or a block on the server that Quicken uses to download transactions.

    Here’s what you can try:

    1. Wait one business day – many CC-505 issues resolve on their own after a short delay.
    2. Refresh your online account information:
      • In your account register, click the Actions (gear) icon at the top right (or press Ctrl + Shift + N).
      • Select Update Now and follow the prompts. image.png
      • Repeat for each affected account.
    3. Try again the next business day if the problem persists.

    If this continues for more than 48 hours despite following these steps, it’s best to contact Quicken Support so they can assist further or escalate the issue.

    You can also review the full guidance in this support article.

    Sallie Mae Bank won't connect for the past 4 or 5 days using One Step Update. Returning error CC-505. Tried refreshing account by updating inside the register. Validation does not fix the connection problem, and I still get came error and no connection. Anyone else having this issue?

    Windows 11 Home 25H2. Quicken R65.17. Build 27.1.165.17.
