Here I am again, asking for help again. I'm not getting it to work.

All four of my TD Ameritrade accounts now exist on the Schwab web
site, with correct information on their contents. I have all their new
Schwab account numbers and I have the correct user IDs and password.
Three of the accounts are sort of lumped together and I can access all
three of them when I log into  one. The fourth account is my wife's
IRA and I have to log into that separately with her user ID and
password.

So all seems fine on the Schwab web site. But I can't get it to work
correctly in Quicken. This is what I've done:

I went to Quicken Accounts, and clicked Add Account. It asked for an
institution and I select Schwab. It has me sign into Schwab and
authorize it to let Quicken access my accounts. I did.

** It then says "Your accounts have been authorized successfully!" and
brought me back to Quicken where it shows me all three of my accounts.
One of them looks fine, but under "Nickname in Quicken" the other two
have the names of unrelated accounts at  other institutions (I don't
think the nickname issue is related to my problem, but I thought I
would mention it just in case).

Under Action, Link to Existing Account is selected. I click next and
wait. And wait. And wait.

After about an hour of waiting when nothing happened, I figured that
something was wrong, so I shut down Quicken, restarted it, and started
over. I got to the same place as the paragraph about with ** at its
beginning but this time the drop-down box  under Action is gone, and
instead it says "Don't add to Quicken" and provides no ability to
change it.

One (just one)  of the four accounts has been added to Quicken (the
one without the incorrect nickname, if it matters), but with a zero
balance and no transactions.

So what did I do wrong? Did I just nor wait long enough the first time
I tried this? How can I fix it.

I'm about to delete the useless zero-balance added Schwab account and
try again, but I wanted to first describe what I did and ask for help
while it was still fresh in my mind.

All suggestions as to what's wrong and what I should do would be
greatly appreciated.
