Learn more about the new features in MyWatchlist by clicking here: My Watchlist: FAQ

You may have recently imported data from the Classic MSN or my.msn.com  pages to the new MSN.com Money Watchlist/Portfolio and may not have received all of your Watchlist/Portfolio data. The MSN team has resolved the issue and you can now regain access to that information by following the steps below.

Note: These steps only apply if your Watchlist has already been imported and there is data missing. If you have not already imported a Watchlist, please go to the Watchlist, sign in, and you will then be prompted to begin the import. You may need to return to this step if you find that data is missing after your first attempt to import.

Step 1: Create a new Watchlist and delete any Watchlists from previous imports

Step 2: Re-import your existing Watchlist or Portfolio data from MSN.com or my.msn.com into a new Watchlist

Step 3: Clean any erroneous data imported into your new Watchlist(s).

If you need more details about the steps, please go to this article.

If you are still having difficulties or would like to report any errors, please reply to this thread.

Thank you!

    Its been awhile since we heard from MSN..... the summer interns who developed the new Portfolio Manager and the migration from the old PM could be back in school.

    I went to migrating your watchlist and found the message that the migration issue had been fixed.  I followed the outlined procedure and all 6 of my lists migrated.  When I went in to check, I found entries in one list that were both there and in a separate list.  The only way I can see to delete the duplicate entries is to issue a sell for the full number of shares on each.

    Use of the new format is worse than useless.  I'll stick with the Classic as long as it is available.  Then I'll just have to abandon MSN Money entirely and use my Morningstar portfolios that I set up the first time the MSN Money Portfolio started having the "N/A" issue.

    I've used this feature for several decades (since the mid-90's) and really regret having to abandon it.  Microsoft had done its users a terrible disservice and doesn't appear to ever have been concerned with the damage it leaves in it's wake!

    Adriana --  Have tried to re-import and continue to have the same problems.  You are not correct that this problem has been "fixed."  What now?  You need to do a better job of keeping us up-to-date on the fixes you are working on.

    Helen, here is a link to the old portfolio manager, but I have been told its going away on Oct 30th.  I asked MSN to confirm the October 30th date, but received the usual no reply.  Good luck.
