Issue Adding Account on New File. Though Original File Works

Hi Quicken,

I have been using Quicken for over a decade plus. I recently explored Simplifi. Good product but Quicken Classic Premier is my preference due to investment options.

Ever since I tried Simplifi, I have had nothing but issues with Classic Premier.

  • I have verified I am using my login credentials for Quicken Classic and not Simplifi.
  • I have tried completely new install and rolling back to previous version of Quicken Classic Premier.

My issues: Quicken Classic:

  1. In my original file, I can add accounts.
  2. I wanted to create new second file. This is where the problems began.
  3. I get nothing but errors while trying to add new accounts. Yet I can go back to my original file with no issues. I have trouble shooting with the two bullets above. No success.
  4. I can add some accounts, but some will just not connect.
  5. I even tried purging all store passwords and cache in the original browser and using new second browser. Still same results.

At this point, I am not sure how to resolve it. I plan to try on another computer, when possible, but this point, I am hit roadblock on adding new accounts.

    2. What errors are you encountering?
      1. What specific error message/code are you seeing?
    3. Do you have those same accounts connected in multiple Quicken files?
    4. Are you unable to add accounts, or do the accounts add, but then throw errors when you try to update them?
    5. If the financial institution requires you to authorize through their website, are you encountering any issues when you're redirected to the website to authorize?
      1. If you are encountering issues, which web browser are you using?
        1. Do you have any browser extensions, like ad blockers and pop up blockers paused?
        2. Have you tried temporarily setting an alternate browser as your default?
        3. If you use a VPN, have you tried turning it off?

    I look forward to your reply!
