Post From: How to download historical data from IB for backtesting

I followed the instructions at both Interactive Brokers Trading Service: Using Sierra Chart Historical Data and https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_GlobalSymbolSettings.php#UpdateSettingsSteps but it does not work. I could still download up to Jan. 03, 2016. It seems that it does not download from the SC Data service at all. When I leave the setting to "SC All Data Services" in "Symbol Setting" as illustrated by the instruction, it just reverts back to "Interactive Brokers" in "Symbol Setting" once I reconnect to data service.

When I actually change the "Service" to "SC Data - All Services" in "Data Service Setting" and try to download it says "Historical Download Skipped" and doesn't download anything.

Thanks
