I had an online payment set up to be paid to Lexus Financial on June 28th.
I received a letter from Lexus saying that out account number had changed
and to make necessary adjustments so I went into online payees and clicked
on Edit but it said I could not edit a payment that has already been
scheduled for payment. Soooo I cancelled that payment and went online and
it did indeed cancel it. But now I able to go to Edit the payee but I can
only edit the Address field. I want to edit the account number sections but
I can't! It's grayed out so how would I go about changing the account
number for an already established payee?
Thank you!

You can't change the account number of an online payee; you have to create
a new online payee.

Ok so then I went in and deleted that payee and cancelled the online payment
I had set up for them.
Now I go to set them up as a new payee again and it says that this payee has
already been set up in Quicken and to give it a new name! How can I give it
a new name since the name has to be "Lexus Financial Services"?
I can't just name them something else!
So now what to do ?

You need to use a new payee name.

I believe you can give them a different name ... yet one still
recognizable as their name. Say, for example, "Lexus Financial Services,
Inc." Or even "Lexus Financial Services 2". I have done this in the
past. They'll be happy to cash the check (or accept the EFT), regardless.
