How Do I Fix Quicken Error CC-506?

Quicken Error CC-506 is a common online banking error that users encounter when trying to update or add their bank accounts in Quicken. This error typically occurs when Quicken is unable to connect properly with your financial institution — either because of outdated login information, website changes on your bank’s end, or an outdated version of Quicken. The good news? This is fixable with just a few simple steps.

🔍 What Causes Quicken Error CC-506?

There are a few potential reasons why Error CC-506 might appear in your Quicken software:

• Your bank's website has changed (URL or login flow updated).
• Old or incorrect login credentials saved in Quicken.
• Your financial institution no longer supports direct connection through Quicken.
• A recent Quicken software update is needed.
• Temporary connection issues or server maintenance on the bank’s side.

🛠️ Step-by-Step Guide to Fix Quicken Error CC-506

✅ Step 1: Verify Your Bank's Website

1. Open a browser and go to your bank’s official website.
2. Try logging in manually using your credentials.
3. If successful, check for any prompts such as:
   • Accepting new terms and conditions
   • Updating your password
   • Multi-factor authentication (MFA) setup

If you can’t log in, the issue is with your credentials or the bank’s website — not Quicken.

✅ Step 2: Update Your Bank Login Info in Quicken

1. Open Quicken.
2. Go to Tools > Account List (Ctrl + A).
3. Find the account showing Error CC-506 and click Edit.
4. Select the Online Services tab.
5. Click Deactivate to remove the online connection temporarily.
6. Once deactivated, return to the same account settings and click Set Up Now.
7. Re-enter your correct bank credentials and reconnect.

✅ Step 3: Update Quicken to the Latest Release

Outdated versions of Quicken may not be compatible with recent banking updates.

1. In Quicken, go to Help > Check for Updates.
2. If an update is available, install it.
3. Restart Quicken and retry the account update.

✅ Step 4: Refresh Online Account Information

You can manually force Quicken to refresh your financial institution list.

1. Go to Tools > Online Center.
2. Select the account’s financial institution from the dropdown.
3. Press Ctrl + Shift on your keyboard and click Contact Info.
4. Click Refresh and then OK.
5. Try updating your account again.

✅ Step 5: Validate and Repair Your Quicken File

A corrupted data file can sometimes trigger sync issues.

1. Go to File > File Operations > Validate and Repair.
2. Check Validate File, then click OK.
3. Once complete, review the validation results for issues and try again.

💬 Additional Tips

• Ensure your Quicken subscription is active — expired versions may lose online services.
• Avoid using VPNs or public Wi-Fi while performing One Step Updates.
• Always back up your data before deactivating or reactivating any accounts.
• If your bank recently changed its name, platform, or login method, you may need to add the account as new.
