3 hours on the phone with Intuit support and my Quicken problem is solved! w00t!

You read that correctly. THREE hours. After Vanguard couldn't help me and told me to call Intuit, I knew this wasn't going to be easy. The symptom was that I couldn't use OneStep with all of my accounts, but it worked with others. Ugh. I think I disabled and re-enabled them zillions of times.

The problem ended up being a data corruption problem so deep that "Super Verify" couldn't fix it.

If anyone reading this LJ works for Intuit, I'd be willing to donate a backup copy of my file if I knew they would use it to figure out the problem. I'd gladly work with them to sort it out.

Oh, and before folks ask: Yes, the support engineer was in India, I never got angry, he had huge amounts of patience, and at the end of the phone call I thanked him for taking so much time to work this out and come up with a solution. We wished each other happy New Years, though I knew his wasn't tonight.

Alas, I don't work at Intuit any longer. However, you're talking about Quicken, which is actually a very small part of Intuit's business. Most of their energy is in TurboTax and Quickbooks nowadays.

Glad you got it resolved though!

I don't know whether it was 31st Dec in India at the time you called, but they celebrate a wide variety of holidays etc. Any excuse, as ever :)

In the end, how was your case classified? Software bug? Corrupt data from a remote bank? What are the chances of the issue recurring again?

A three hour call wouldn't necessarily annoy me if I knew that there was some attempt at progress being made. I usually determine that from the actions that the tech support guy makes, and what he has you do in return. I've had bad calls that were productive, and I've had bad calls where I wanted to strangle the guy.
