KMYMoney Help

[George Simonis]

 I've tried 3 or 4 sources that are listed on the drop down. No luck. If tey don't work, why are they still listed as sources? Am I the only one having these problems?It used to be easy to update the stocks, now it is impossible.

 George,

What source are you using for the updates?  As Thomas said, some sites,  
such as Yahoo, have simply stopped providing that service, so it simply  
won't work, and there is nothing KMyMoney can do about it.  Some have  
changed the format of what they provide, so we might be able to adjust  
the settings for that source, but we would need to know which source.  
Did you look through the forum as Thomas suggested?  In terms of errors  
- is there really nothing more than "failed to update"?  Is that on  
console or in a pop-up?
