I have the same problem, but your advice does not solve the problem.
Up until December 31, the funds were updated, then suddenly stopped.
Indices, such as Dow Jones, are updated, but mutual funds have not been
updated. The message and report are the same as Rick's. Do you have any other
ideas to solve this problem?
