Quicken Currencies exchange rate CAD/US is very wrong

Is suddenly not close to accurate tonight for whatever the reason is

most likely a bug with Currencies exchange rate download

It shows 1.35278 while to be close to reality it should show 1.4372

Bad weekend for the USD ??? or extremely good weekend for the CAD

    Having the same Issue this morning Dec 21 2024. Send a "Report a Problem", (I've done that) however you never hear directly back on the reports.

    I'm noticing that Quicken Classic For Mac here on my end still shows USD/CAD exchange rate at 1.352738 when it's currently 1.4373. It clearly hasn't been updated in a while even though I've tried to force it to update by using the Currency List window.

    Any ideas/suggestions? I'm using the Canadian version of Quicken For Mac.

    I too am having this issue and just posted a new thread not realizing this was already posted. When can we expect a fix to this? There's a huge discrepancy between the actual current exchange rate and what Quicken is showing us.

    Screenshot, the CAD/USD rate should be around 1.43xx not 1.35xx

    The work around on the Mac version is to click on Window dropdown, select Currency and you can manually override the exchange rates. https://www.xe.com is a good source for current exchange rates.

    @meroni1

    Yes for the time being, but it needs to be adjusted manually all the time

    a temporary workaround , thank you
