Most times the update fails is because of settings in IE or a firewall or
antivirus blocking the installer/updater to check ie settings you can try
the following steps and try to reupdate also suggest temporary disabling any
security software
Step1: Open up Internet Explorer

Step2: Go to tool> Internet Options

Step3: Click Clear History, Delete Files, Delete Cookies (In IE7 choose
Delete Browsing History then you should see the options to delete the three)

Step4: At the top of the screen click the security tab

Step5: Left click on Internet once then click default level--Repeat for
Local Intranet Trusted Sites, And Restricted Sites

Step6: At the top of the screen click the privacy tab then click advanced

Step7: Put a check in "Override Automatic Cookie Handling" also set First
and Third party cookies to ACCEPT and check always allow session cookies and
click OK

Step8: At the top of the screen choose advanced and at the bottom right hand
corner click restore defaults and then click ok

I have IE 7 Finalised version (not beta pls!) installed and the program
update crash after downloading. Why microsoft does not provide offline
download for the updates? Microsoft should consider ppl without internet
connection or learn from Quicken.
I am very fustrating about this matter!!

what about vista users? there is no going back to IE6, so there must
be another solution.

Here is an additional alternative to consider, altho you may have
already tried some of these:

Start-> Programs-> Accessories-> SystemTools-> SystemRestore to
create a restore point. Then in IE6, start with
Tools-> Options-> Security-> LocalIntranet-> DefaultLevel which may be
sufficient. If not sufficient, you can try the default level for
the Internet zone and the TrustedSites zone. Then also in IE6,
Tools-> Options-> Advanced-> RestoreDefaults. Try the conversion then.
To restore your security settings to what you had previously, you
can Start-> Programs-> Accessories-> SystemTools-> SystemRestore to
restore you computer to an earlier time using the restore point you
had created.

If you were to test after each step, you might be able to deduce
what the limiting factor is.

The only sure solution is the new user account which you've already
confirmed worked (there are no current updates to 2007, so that behavior is
correct).

In addition to what Cal suggested, you could try completely removing all
versions of Money (and the MSN Money Toolbox) via Control Panel, then after
making sure that your data file is safe in a different location (e.g. My
Documents) and that you have at least one good backup, delete any remaining
Money folders: the Money installation folders, the Money folders under
Documents and Settings (both your sign-in and the "All Users") under
Application Data - Microsoft (and under Local Settings - App Data -
Microsoft)
Then try reinstalling (the MSN Money Toolbox first, if you are using the MSN
Money website).

But, it may end up being that there is something in this profile that is
blocking the proper install.

Hi cal,

I double checked that all is as you suggested. Yet again the same thing
happens. When I sign into my data file I get the dialog to update my Money.
It first says it cannot close Money whereas it fact it has. When I click OK
it lists files it is downloading. Then it shows progress in %. When it gets
to 99% it says it can't complete the update and I should install the Update.

I am not at all sure what the problem is.

Any ideas?

I would reenable Windows Firewall. It has not been reported to cause
a problem like this.

In IE6, I would go to
Tools-> InternetOptions-> Security-> TrustedSites-> Sites list and
uncheck "Require server verification... ". In the trusted sites
list I would add these:

moneycentral.msn.com
fdl.microsoft.com
passport.com
passport.net
login.live.com
g.msn.com
money://

Hi,

I have turned off the Windows Firewall, which is the only one I have. I do
not running IE7 beta. I am running version
6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 of IE6. I still get the upgrade
dialogs.

Let's hope that when you return to your normal user now, Money will
not ask for an update.

If the problem persists then, are you running IE6 or IE 7 beta? You
also could be being blocked by a software firewall.

Hi,

I tried both suggestions.

With my orginial M2007 file, I start Money and enter the password for my
file. It opens, after opening the Internet connection. I then get a dialog
saying that Money 2007 needs an update. When I press OK, it starts to
compress the data file and then says it can't close Money. Meanwhile Money
closes. I press OK on this dialog. After about 3 seconds, there is a new
dialog saying that it is now ready to download the new files. Another dialog
starts saying that Microsoft Money Update installs the new software. It shows
the progress in %. When it gets to 99% there is a new dialog saying " Money
was unable to install this update"

I also tried setting up a new user with Admin rights and using Money to set
up a new file. When I did this, Money didn't ask for an update at all.

This method had worked with some different things, and I wonder if
it might apply to your Money 2007 problem too:

In IE6, start with
Tools-> Options-> Security-> LocalIntranet-> DefaultLevel which may be
sufficient.

If that does not let you updated, and 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. Let Money
download the updates as that user.

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.

I have the same problem, Money 2007 starts and opens my data file, says it
needs to upgrade. It downloads files and then after about 10 minutes says it
cannot upgrade check the internet connection.

I have 16.0.150.621

I can press cancel and get on and use Money but every time I open this file
I get the message. I do not have IE 7.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Just a follow-up on this issue:

Read a post later on in this group that suggested the problem might lie with an
incompatability with IE7 beta and Money 2007.

Yep. That was it. I uninstalled the IE7 Beta 3, rebooted, ran Money 2007, let
the auto-patch do it's thing (went without a hitch), reinstalled IE7, and after
another reboot, was back to normal.

All is well here now.

If you have the IE7 beta installed, try uninstalling it. When I did that,
the update ran normally.

I'm having this exact same problem, when it's updating the core program itself.

It closes down Microsoft Money 2007 and says it's done downloading the
update files, but when it goes it install, it closes and a 'Send Error' box
comes up saying an error has caused 'Microsoft Money Update Utility" has
closed Money 2007.

This happens every single time. What's wrong?
