So changing the FI on a new file doesn't work, but it does on an older file?
Hmmmm. Regarding your last hypothesis: I wouldn't think this would matter,
but............

As I posted, my method works fine with Money 2007. Perhaps you are confusing
me with someone else?

When I go to the web site, I see all of the accounts.

If I set up a new file, it will download all of them. And I can't seem to be
able to change that.

However, on my existing file, which was converted from M2003, although it
initially downloaded all of them, by changing the FI, I was able to keep it
from downloading the one I don't want to download.

I wonder if there is something about the order in which things are set up. Or
perhaps online accounts need to be disabled when the change is made.

If you go to the web site of the latter account (TD Banknorth), which
accounts do you see? (I see all of the active ones,, whether I want to or
not). And, when I d/l from it (not TD Banknorth, but Chase), all d/l,
whether I want them or not.
If you want to pursue this, create a new file (not account), create new bank
accounts at TD Banknorth (just one will do) and then see what Money 2007
does when it updates.

That's curious.

The FI that I'm using for the account I don't want to download is the former
name of the FI. Bank of New Hampshire merged with TD Banknorth. I'm using the
latter for the accounts I want to download, and the former (which no longer
exists in the list of FI's) for the one I don't want to download.

I only had to do this with Money 2007 -- was not necessary in M 2003.

Nope - just didn't read your message very carefully. However, I'm still
surprised that your method works. I've tried something similar and it hasn't
worked for me.

Michael,

I did this using Money 2007 Deluxe 16.0.120.621

It had not been an issue in Money 2003, my previous version, but I don't recall
how I disabled it there.


--ron

I had a similiar problem as well, and what I had to do was export and
actually delete the account. Once that was done, I did a sync. For me, this
was because I archived stuff to an older account, and that older account
kept getting the updates, instead of the current one. But your situation
might be different.

And here I thought all you guys were a day behind the times :-)).

I don't know how it happened. I never open the clock/calendar on my windows
machine except in these kinds of circumstances. I wonder if something happened
during the autosynch process, or if there's some problem with the MB.

Thanks for pointing it out.

Perhaps this will work for you.

I have an open account that I do not want updated online at a bank where I also
have open accounts that I do want updated online.

I changed the name of the financial institution to something similar (so I
would recognize it), and then did NOT set up this bogus institution for online
services.

Go to "Change Account Settings" and make the change. I'd guess this should
work just as well for a closed account as it does for my open account.


--ron

Incidentally, Ron, your computer clock is fast.

Starting a year or two ago, Money now downloads whatever accounts in finds
at a FI under a given username/password. Your method won't work with these
versions.

Don,

My post and that of the OP has nothing to do with your example. Are
you sure you didn't mean to reply to a different post?

You can also hurry the process by getting the website to stop displaying the
closed account. Sometimes you can do this yourself; other times you can talk
to online support.

None of this works well for example if you have a husband with an IRA
account and joint tenant accounts with his wife, and a wife with an IRA,
and the same joint tenant accounts. You have two accounts to download
from, but despite the fact that you try and turn off the joint accounts
from one of the downloads, and you can close, hide etc., they are still
downloaded and cause a lot of manual work to avoid them in reports, etc.
It's a silly bug. What's the purpose of saying "Don't download them"
when you set up the online account, if they download anyway?

This has been a MONEY bug for years.

The best way to handle updates for an account you've closed at your
bank is to leave the account open within Money until you start getting
error messages that there's no record of the account at your bank.

Once you start getting error messages, go to "Manage Online Services"
and stop then re-start online services for the bank in question. On
re-start, only the active accounts will be enabled for online services.
At that time, close the inactive and now "online disabled" accounts
within Money.

Many banks leave closed accounts active in their systems for a period
of time. In these situations it doesn't matter whether, within Money,
you close or leave open the accounts. They may continue to update. If
you close them in Money before they stop updating you'll have to
re-open them in Money and perform the stop/re-start/close procedure
described above.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
JB

It is. On the Account List, select

You can customize reports to eliminate the closed accounts from
showing there too.
