When I start to update my account, Quicken shows a message saying to Please Enter Your Password - even though I already entered the password and the password box is showing an entry.

    It’s still doing that. I have a picture of the message but I don't see any way to send it to you.

    Hello @seatonj67,

    Thank you for providing the additional details, though I apologize that you have not yet received a follow-up response.

    You can try providing the screenshot by dragging and dropping the image to your response if you do not have the option to attach it.

    Also, do you receive the password prompt through One Step Update only or do you receive the prompt through Update Now from the gear icon on the top-right of the account register as well?

    Please, check back and let us know!

    Q: Also, do you receive the password prompt through One Step Update only or do you receive the prompt through Update Now from the gear icon on the top-right of the account register as well?

    A: Both. One says One Step Update and the other says One Step Update (at the top-LEFT - I don't see any update button at the top-right).
  • seatonj67

    I meant that the first one says Update Accounts.

    The gear-icon is found in the top-right corner of the account register (see below).



    The Update Now option is found in the dropdown menu that opens when you click on the gear-icon and allows you to do an individual update for accounts with the same financial institution instead of all financial institutions together.

    Per this image, I clicked on both gear icons and even click on the submenus but nothing says Update Now.

    Did you select an account to open first so you can view the transactions in the register? Once an account has been opened, you should find the gear on the top-right above the list of transactions next to a clock symbol.

    I can't fully tell from your screenshot, but it seems like you might be on the Home page and not in an account register.

    Ok. I did that and the same things happens there, too. I went into the account register of a specific account and chose Update Now.

    Thank you.

    In that case, then next I suggest you try to reset the account connection. I do recommend saving a backup first (just in case) and then following steps 1, 2, and 4 in this support article. For step 4, follow the section titled To reset or repair the connectivity of an online account

    Let us know how it goes!

    Per step 1, I choose Tools, Account List, then choose EDIT on Jim's checking. I enter his online banking password and choose the account number per the screenshot attached. Then, it says I must enter the password for his online banking account which I've already done.

    Can I delete pictures I've uploaded to an earlier post?

    There is a time frame in which a post can be edited, if you are past the time frame a moderator will need to remove/edit the content.

    I have gone ahead and removed the images from the previous comment. If you would like additional images removed, please let me know which ones, and I will remove them.

    Thank you!

    So, I still have the same problem.

    I just installed a fresh copy of Windows 10 64-bit in VMWare and also installed Quicken 2020 and I'm still getting the same problem. I'm getting tired of troubleshooting this.
