I found out that my Apple computer did not connect to any bank. When I called the helpdesk again, I got at last someone who knew what he was talking about. He suggested to try to connect through a mobile network and that worked. All up and running again. Thank you Matthew McNestry! Why does not every member of the helpdesk know this solution??

Hello Info785,

 

Welcome to the Community page, 

 

This error seems to come from customers who use a mac or apple device. 

 

What I suggest is to try a windows PC or an android device and this error should not appear using one of these.

That is no solution of course. We don't have a PC nor an android device, so you should come with something better and make sure Quickbooks works on all platforms!
