I was able to still get in to the old Portfolio Manager this AM, but I'm not holding out hope it's going to last much longer. Alas.

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!

2014-11-03T02:50:36+00:00 I just tried to open the old portfolio and was blocked. It looks like the old portfolio is gone. Great. so much for building my own portfolio to track.

2014-11-02T22:34:03+00:00 I am so glad that you shared that you also had the date errors! Now I know I am not the only one.
Perhaps others should check and see if this is error is with everyone's imports. Every buy transaction and also dividend dates are one day earlier than the old PM. I did not place dividends in, so did not know about that aspect. Buy dates are very important because they are used to determine short term or long term taxes when sold! (in case the MSN programmers did not know!)

2014-11-02T15:29:20+00:00 I'm at a lost. I have tons of transactions from many years in the old PM. Imported data but data has so many errors that it is not salvageable. Would like to delete everything and try to reimport to see if the issues are resolved but I cannot find a way to delete the portfolios that were imported. Can someone tell me how to clear all so I can try to start fresh?

2014-11-02T14:50:44+00:00 I noticed the same issue in my portfolio. Every buy transaction and every dividend date that I have looked at is one day earlier than in the old PM. As a programmer I find this bizarre since date manipulation must be specifically coded. I don't understand why one would preform a date manipulation on date being moved from one place to another. I suppose I should be happy that it apparently moved all my stocks. But it definitely makes me wonder what other data is wrong. I have over 15 years of data and I am not sure I want to compare every transaction. I guess I will just be unable to count on the accuracy of the data in the new PM.
