In the "Portfolio" view, downloading the day's quotes last night, I was asked for my Quicken password.
I don't recall ever having been asked for it before, although forgetting something wouldn't surprise me.
If this is going to be a regular thing, I'm going to be annoyed.
Did you just recently upgrade to Q2014? Because that's when the requirement for a Q password began.
SO, be prepared to be annoyed. db
I moved up from Q2011 a couple of months ago. I suppose it might have asked for a password the first time I fired it up, but as I said, I tend to forget stuff like that.
Oh goodie.
I just downloaded today's closing quotes and wasn't asked. If it only pops up every few months, I won't sweat it.

It's your "Intuit ID", not a "Quicken password".
Quicken will store the Intuit ID in the password vault, so once you've provided the ID for a given file, you should not be asked again, for that file.
But the ID will be required for every Quicken file you have that ever goes online.
John, I did not get prompted for my Intuit ID until very recently, after using V2014 for weeks, if not months. Same file, nothing changed that I'm aware of. Any ideas? It only asked once,so it's not a problem, just a curiousity.

I've read of that a couple of times, but I have no idea why it would occur.
Happened to me this past week as well...
The whole "online" area of Quicken is flaky in Q2014 (I have Premier, and that is where I see the online issues).
It appears that the online area received some development attention for this version, but not enough time was left to wring out all of the bugs.
Hopefully, the crashes and other non-deterministic behavior will be fixed without having to upgrade to 2015. Or maybe that was Intuit's plan, put so many bugs in 2014, then fix them only in 2015.....
