In mid-December, BECU updated its Web site's certificate to use Extended Validation (EV), which provides greater credibility to a secure certificate. (See "Quicken for Mac Lacks Extended Validation Certificate Support," 2008-12-23.) Whatever the change was - BECU attributes the fix to Intuit - it worked fine and I'm once again able to download transactions. It's still unclear how quickly Intuit intends to update Quicken 2007, the current latest release of personal-finance software for Mac OS X, and whether the company will fix earlier versions of Quicken, too. The upcoming Quicken Financial Life for Mac, due out in mid-2009, has appropriate EV support. The new software will require Mac OS X 10.5 or later, and thus won't be appropriate for all current Quicken users. .
