Target Unable to Connect (QWIN)

Quicken Jasmine · April 7

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for coming to share and for keeping us updated on the progress of this issue within your applications.

We truly appreciate your continued patience and support!

Quicken Jasmine. Was happy to see my transactions restored but I have lost 10 months of transaction categorizations and it will take me quite awhile to restore those manually. Is it possible that those categorizations will be restored?

So Target connected again, but just a note that it added a random amount to the opening balance transaction. Once I deleted that all was in sync again.

Hello Quicken Jasmine,

I tried this morning to add the account back to Quicken by "Add account" and Activate one-step update, neither worked for me.

I closed and opened my desktop application and still did not work. I logged into Target on my browser successfully, downloaded the transactions and it also failed.

I check for SW updates and I am using the latest version, R62.16.

Any other suggestions?

I updated the "Target" card a few minutes ago. Everything worked fine. The 2FA has to be done with every update!

When this most recent issue started, I deactivated transaction download for my Target RedCard account. When I received the update from Quicken Kristina that the issue had been resolved, I was then able to re-activate transaction download. However, as @WBajwa mentioned above, it now requires 2FA with each and every update. Following is a screen snip of the message I receive:

PDrew · April 8

yep. Same here.

Lazarus Long · April 9

Me too

Same here. 2FA everytime I download transactions now. Also still haven't updated downloaded categories since June 4, 2024.

I ask for a code to be sent to my cell phone, but none arrive. It works if I log on directly to my account.

AllenK · April 9

I can confirm the previous post about the lack of a cell phone code. I have tried that several times and none are received. If I send the code to my email, that does arrive.

2FA with every update hangs the whole One Step Update process. Can you continue to work with Target to get this resolved?

Mike O'Brien · April 11

My 2FA further point to Quicken would be that they really need to employ a true security expert (NOT a conventional wisdom person who thinks everyone should always use 2FA because that's the conventional wisdom) to advocate for a complete abandonment of 2FA for Quicken downloads where there is no risk of fund transfers, and Quicken users could perhaps specially register for the downloading privileges without 2FA sort of like people do with TSA skip-the-line privileges on airlines. This 2FA is becoming too wide spread (now I have two accounts requiring it every time I do a so-called "one step update)" and that can only increase unless Quicken takes a stand.

I am not able to connect at all. I've changed my username and password, and they work fine on the Target Credit Card website, but not in Quicken. I have tried many times, and always get the CC-503 error code.

AllanM · April 12

when I try a target redcard update, I get to the prompt for the code, but no code is ever sent. If I log onto mytargetcirclecard.target.com in my browser, I get prompted for a code, and the code is delivered and I can log on.

How can I get Quicken to log on and actually have the code sent to me?

Update: I tried a QFX download and I get "Quicken is currently unable to verify the financial institution information for this download." when importing the file. Advice?

Thanks.

dennisk47 · April 12

I had that happen to me too. The code would get sent to email but not cell number. I had to VERIFY my cell number in the Target app and then it worked.

this worked for me. I had to log into my target card account, then click on my profile, verify the number, then click the update profile button, which required another verification. I think tried Quicken and no luck. I wait ten minutes, tried again, and it worked.

Target Redcard download into Quicken works now (4/13/2025), but it lost transactions from late Feb to late March for me. If I manually download the .qfx file, it won't import into Quicken:

Update: C posted this solution in another thread:

Until Quicken resolves the issue with direct download, you can use the following workaround to import the QFX file:
After downloading, open the QFX file using Notepad.
Toward the top of the file, there are 3 lines that say "Null". They are <ORG>, <FID>, and <INTU.BID>
For <ORG>, change Null to Target National Bank
For <FID> and <INTU.BID>, change Null to 03820
[See image for reference]
Save the file and open it in Quicken. It should open normally.

The above works, but now I had duplicate entries that I had to manually delete.

it stripped out my transactions dating from June 4 2024.

Any progress here?

Transactions won't reconcile correctly with the latest transactions-download now… off by almost $1K! 🤯

Bob@45 · May 12

@Natey if you haven't already, check your Opening Balance record at the beginning of history. Quicken frequently changes the opening balance of accounts, I'm guessing to whatever the download says the balance was at the beginning of the downloaded history. It does this invisibly, without warning, without asking you if it should. I just changes the opening balance, which then throws the reconciliation off by that change.

G. Scott Phillips · May 19

Any update from Quicken on any progress to fix this issue with Target National Bank?

Liz Renninger · May 20

Still not downloading transactions in spite of entering 2FA. No downloads since 4/25. I'm reduced to manual entries. Very frustrating.
