Adding a Paypal Account

Wacktown · October 2020

I'm putting this in 'All Things Canadian' because I'm finding that there are many differences with the Canadian version of Quicken.
The help listings for Quicken tell me that all I need to do to add a Paypal account is go to the Add Account button and start typing Paypal under the chequing account type. This is not true in my case. When I type in Paypal, there is no listing suggestions at all. Does anyone know why this is happening? I had Quicken a couple of years ago and this was not an issue then. Not sure what's changed.
Thanks.

As far as I know the Canadian version of Quicken never supported downloading of transactions from PayPal. But then again I don't use the Canadian version so I could be wrong. I do know that even on the US version Quicken and PayPal have had a hard time with each other (works, then doesn't, and such).

Looking at the current Canadian list and PayPal isn't on it.
