Due to the SunTrust to Truist merger I am no longer able to use my previous financial software so I purchased QuickBooks desktop for Mac. I have created a company and now when I go to setup online banking I keep getting a connection error when it prompts me to login to Truist. I have spent hours on the phone with Truist who assures me I am properly signed up in their system and it is a Quickbooks issue? However, no one from Quickbooks is available to help me until after the weekend. So I am hoping someone here can give me some guidance on what to try. I am desperate to fix this issue this weekend before I have to go back to my paying job on Monday. LOL!

I just purchased Quickbooks and installed it last week so it is up to date.
I tried adding another company like you suggested and still have the same connection error.
Any other suggestions?
I am still waiting to see if you have any other suggestions. I have spoken to Truist 4 times since your last reply and they are not able to help me. They say the problem is on the Qucikbooks end???
