I am using XP and created a new user with administrator privilege. I logged
on with the new user and created a brand new MSMoney file. Created an
account and added an investment. When I updated it gave quotes for ...
9/30, 10/7, 10/14, 10/21 and 10/26. No quotes for 10/27 or 10/28.

I see the mutual fund quotes are still from yesterday for me.
Perhaps there is a quote server problem for the funds tonight.
Usually they update before 7 ET. The S+P 500 ($INX) updated fine, as
did the stocks.

Cal,

I do have a firewall but also had the same firewall before the problems
starting occuring. I disabled the firewall, but was still unable to get any
of the quotes. At least since you can update quotes in Money 2004, I know
it is possible. I will try your suggestion about creating a new user. I
noticed there is another post ( two down from mine) that two other users are
having the same problem.

I can update quotes in Money 2004.

Do you have a software firewall that might be blocking the quote
fetches? Or Norton?

If you are using XP, I would try creating a new user with
Administrator privilege. Switch to that user and start Money with a
new blank file. Set up a new Money file and see if that gets quotes
updated.

The theory is that if the problem is an IE6 setting, you will get
default settings for the new user. If you succeed this way, it
would accomplish the download, and it would point toward the reason
the other did not work. You can delete the new user later, and
your regular IE6 settings will not have been changed.

Default Re: Downloading Quotes

I've been running 2006 for a few months and the quotes have downloaded ok.
Today, my stock quotes download ok and all my mutual funds from a number of
companies do not download. My guess is that MS has a problem.
I'll try again in a few hours or tomorrow.

Cal,

Thanks for the suggestion. I have three different ".mny" files and am
having the same problem with all three. I took one of the smaller ones
which had 8 quotes to update, i.e. DJI, NASDAQ, S&P 500, and 5 mutual funds.
I deslected all eight in the "Quotes to Download" and then would select only
1 mutal fund and run "Update Prices Online". Aftter the five runs, none of
the mutual funds were updated. The 5 mutual funds were from 5 different
families, so it highly unlikely that all 5 mutual fund families would be
having problems with their quotes.

Is anyone out there using MSMoney 2004 and having success updating quotes.

Try reducing the number of quotes that you download. In particular,
remove any symbols that are not current.

Configure in the Last Updated column on the Custom portfolio. Sort
by the Last Updated column. Note which ones with symbols have
not been updated recently. Make sure each of those is unchecked in
UpdatePrices-> PickQuotesToDownload.

You can try increasing the number of quotes that you fetch after you
are successful at getting your most important ones. But try not to
ask for those that there is no data on.

Default Downloading Quotes

I have Microsoft Money 2004 standared and recently have been having problems
downloading quotes. The DJI, NASDAQ, and S&P 500 quotes download fine.
Starting last week, I had problems downloading Mutual Fund quotes. Then
they loaded all right. Then yesterday I experienced the same problem and
still have it. I have reinstalled the software and installed the Microsoft
Activex version of MSN Money Investing, but I am still not having any luck.
The downloads are supposed to be good for 2 years and I installed the
software about 15 months ago and I have received no notices that the
download quotes has expired. I receive no errors when I download the
quotes, it just does not download them. Does anyone have ideas? I noticed
several other posts about this same problem and wonder if anyone else is
still having the problem.
