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!

I had all the numbers of shares of the various funds I hold in my old portfolio page. These are no longer displayed nor can I find them on the new pages. How do i get back to what I had been able to view?

I've tried multiple times to import and it's failed every time with no coherent explanation as to why it's failing. I have probably 40 lists that need to be imported since I've been using this pre 2000. There are several list at the bottom that I have no idea what they are and aren't in the MSN portfolio manager I use daily. One at the bottom is checked and greyed out so I can't unselect that useless one.

Adriana,

Partial success. I followed the steps outlined and my portfolio migrated to the new MSN format but the screen locks up. The ability to scroll down disappears from the right of the screen and I get a message that says: msn.com is not responding. Any suggestions? I even rebooted my computer but come back with the same results.

Thanks.

Ok, I will continue to report any issues I experience here. The details of the current issue I am experiencing are below.

If during the re-import process I put a checkmark to the left of an account that contains 850 stocks, it will not complete the import process and return a generic error to try again in a few minutes. Waiting a few minutes or hours has no effect but if I uncheck the account containing 850 stocks and try again, the re-import process is able to complete immediately and the other checked accounts are imported successfully.

Earlier I was able to complete the re-import process with that account checked and it would at least import the first 50 of the 850 stocks so something changed today.

I see that DavidT3955 posted that the new watchlists only support 70 securities so I suspect this may have something to do with my problem but it would be good to get confirmation on that limit and how the import process is supposed to proceed when it tries to import a account with more than 70.
