As we all know we can no longer get stock price updates in Money…I appear to have stumbled on a simple way to still download quotes directly into Money. I am running Money Deluxe…. Go to Portfolio Manager…. Go to Update Prices…. Please let me know if it works for you. As of today, this is incorrect. I am running Money Deluxe in the US. Thanks Sterling. There is a much simpler way to update all your investment prices in Money.
Forget the OFX files and dummy accounts…. In money simply click on update prices…. This method worked for me in Money Deluxe. I have not been able to work that approach. My original version was which I kept paying to re-subscribe until the end. My Microsoft Money Deluxe is not updating with the 30 minute auto mode. I have been using the OFX files with success.
The one challenge that I have is that when importing the prices into Microsoft Money it adds a day. So today, Feb 28 got imported as Mar 1. I can change the date on my calender and do to see the prices but it is a pain. Any ideas what I am doing wrong or what I need to reset to import todays prices at todays date?
Still trying to make this thing work. Upon installation completion, it messsages that updates are required to work. It works with the Sunset edition out of the box. The portfolio share prices failed to update on Feb 11 and for a few subsequent days, but now 15 minute auto updates are working correctly again. I wonder if MS have rethought their plug-pull policy, or am I just hoping? Surely it would cost MS very little to continue support for share prices or perhaps users could pay for the service continuation?
The Java script thing worked briefly last month and then crashed. I believe that MSFT decided to continue support, at least for now, and just not tell anyone. Sure appreciated all the feedback from this site.
It kept me going when I needed the help. I am using Money Premium and my auto updates are not working. I am jealous of all of you that it is working.
Quotes have not worked for the past three days. It will tell you which ticker runs into a problem. Go to Yahoo! For some reason, the script I was using that produced errors 3 days running worked today without making any modifications.
Anyway, I downloaded the latest script and will start using it from now on. Started having problems a few days ago. The ticker it fails on is not always the same. I have about 60 tickers and it seems like it times out after processing about a quarter of them, failing on different tickers each time.
If you are going to be unable to update your Quotes for a few days here is a way to keep from missing them. To update stock prices on days that you may be gone make these changes to the quotes.
I would keep a copy of the original quotes. Each day will be a different file name with the date in the name. To make this work you will need to setup a scheduled task to run, each day of the week, as follows.

To update your Money portfolio do the following. Open prices are not one of the standard downloads. Up until Friday the 10th , both mutual fund and stock prices were updating. It looks as if the Money site itself historical quotes NAV is dated as of Friday the 10th and they only update once a week — I wonder if when Friday rolls around if online will update??????????
Anyone else notice problem with mutual funds using online quotes? My MS Money updated the mutual fund prices, but doesnt give the percent change. Is the one week change correct for the mutual funds. Knew this was going to happen someday, after I learnt several months ago that MS will discontinue Internet services.
Like most other folks here, I checked out AceMoney etc. But for some reason, online quote updates kept working for me I am an MS Money Deluxe user , until today. Today for the first time, mutual fund quotes have quit updating. I will definately try the scripts for updating quotes, using the method mentioned here, but I have a question. How will adding new transactions work?
I too have the mutual fund problem that seems to break all the Change values. Does this problem also affect the Total Return fields? Also can anyone here fix this problem? So do the market values and cumulative gains or losses. See my screenshots. Note I have one stock and two mutual funds in the test account. The quotes. I removed the Change column because it always says unch. Looking into. For last couple days, the quote update will import huge price on some stock.
Is anyone run into this kind of issue? I am running MS money sunset with Win bit. All of a sudden, my MS Money update of mutual funds has stopped working. Responce to Leo I am having the same problem. Every thing worked fine on Friday, but my Monday update did not occure. Which fund is it? When I tried your suggestion, a. I assume this is correct, so far. Several of them did not download the proper information to the csv file.
However, if I tried the failed one a second time, it would work. This might explain what I saw a few weeks back. It failed when I tried quotes. But, when I tried it again it worked OK. For sometime the quote updates worked well.
But as of the last few days, one or more quotes displays a very large price during the download, something like Looks like an error resonse from the website perhaps. I tried to down a Yahoo portfilio to Excel, which I do alot, and all I get is garbage. There is definitly something wrong at Yahoo.
Your analysis is correct and makes sense to me. There is at least one other person with this trouble. Looks normal to me. It seems the problem is either intermittent or location specific.
Usually these problems go away after a few days. Hopefully Yahoo will get fixed soon and this is a temporary hiccup. Like other Yahoo problems, this one will probably take a few days to sort out. I am developing a. It is a Windows program that will let you specify a ticker list graphically, then let you modify what Yahoo is sending down before you create the OFX file.
Failures are random, I have multiple portfolios with a combination of funds and stocks. Running various quotes direct from the url returns garbage as well.
The results were not stellar: IBM rnational Busines Does that make any sense?? What makes Fridays so special to the MS Money program. Go figure!! FYI, hleofxquotes also support an alternate quote source: Google. For folks who are having issues with Yahoo might wan to give that a try.

These wrong prices are in the Python output file quotes. Is anyone else getting wrong prices for mutual funds when retrieving them from Yahoo through a Python script? Mutual Fund prices do not update on Yahoo or anywhere else until sometime after the market closes, in some cases after 5PM ET.
Build a Yahoo portifilo of your MFs and observe the time when the prices get updated. Then run your update program after that time. I run mine at CT. I checked my last 3 downloads and I see the wrong date for some of the quotes. The quotes are right for the date shown in the ofx file.
Thank you for your replies including letting me know that you submitted an error report to Yahoo. Although the Python script output file quotes.
At this time it is not working. It mysteriously started working sometime before the Yahoo problem that got fixed on July After that fix, the daily price for that Tweedy fund in Money stopped updating. Yeah, the quotes still seem to be funny at times. I have a few mutual funds with prices a few days old even now, and those prices are what would download so it appears to have wrong prices when in fact they might just be old.
If the Yahoo quotes look bad, you can download the Google ones to see if you have any better luck. So here what I did: Created an account with yodlee. Setup all my accounts there. I download an excel file with all accounts transactions. Then from that I create OFX file for each account and import them.

MS Money does not seem to track bonds the same way as stocks. Price updates as I understand them are updated based on percentage of par value, as opposed to par value itself. I only track a few I and EE bonds and I handle those manually. But once you figure out what MS Money is doing with the quote, it may be possible to download the quote into SunsetOFX along with your other quotes and manually adjust the price to be a percentage or whatever it is MS Money is looking for.
A pain but still less so that the steps needed within MS Money for a manual price update. Bill, thanks for your prompt answer!
