Join nowI am unable to download transactions from my Wells Fargo account. When I get to the point of importing to QB it asks me to set up a bank account and doesn't recognize the ones I already have. Gives me a choice to use one a have (which mine are not listed) or make a create a new account. It also says something about QB online version. Can someone help me?????

Hey there, VSHAW.
I’m glad you turned to the Community regarding the error you encounter when downloading transactions via Wells Fargo. Let me help you get past this so you can start accepting transactions.
Let's try a few troubleshooting steps to get the online banking working. The first thing to do is deactivate the online services, so you can connect to your account in a clean slate.

I have tried this multiple times and the message that I attached to my original message (attached) is what I continue to get. I have tried inside QB and outside QB. Outside QB, I click on the file and it does not download. I recently did a QB update not sure if this is a problem?
