Datafeed Toolbox does not work with Yahoo

I am trying to connect to Yahoo Finance with the Datafeed Toolbox, but I obtain the following error:

>> c = yahoo

 Error:
 Error using yahoo

>> fetch(yConnect,’AAPL’) % generates an error

 >> fetch(yahoo,'%5EGSPC',{'Last'})  % either returns empty or generates an error
 Error using urlreadwrite (line 98)

These are the 2 link about the Yahoo API related to this problem. I hope they will be wrong and exist someone in YAHOO that put this service back.....but looks like no more intelligent life in Yahoo.

For those who have active accounts with TD Ameritrade / Thinkorswim, I have a solution to this problem. This involves use of a Matlab toolbox I developed so it can be considered a solicitation. Therefore, if you want to know more then just send me an email and we can discuss through other channels.
