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!

    Good evening Adriana,

    No matter what I try; my screen locks up when My Watchlist opens.

    I can not navigate or do anything.

    A message pops up at the bottom that says msn.com is not responding due to a long running script.  I have let it run for 30-minutes and tried again.  Same result.

    It I click on stop running the script; I get a box that says msn.com is not responding.  Windows is searching for the problem.  Nothing happens.

    So very frustrating.

    Thanks

    It seems I have 'imported' and now I see only 1 'portfolio' at a time which takes up the whole screen to be 'visual ??'         I had several portfolios each of which was an unique brokerage account and I liked to be able to view the full set of holdings without ping-ponging across several screens. From all of the comments (and outrage) it is clear that your programmers/managers don't have much concept of the activities of active investors. The portfolio manager had many fine features and for my purposes it has been destroyed. I have been an MSN client for many years and have lived thru many changes (some quite unwelcome) and have been able to 'live with it'  -- this one is fatal if you cannot give us functionality like before - I don't want to be flipped into the 'new msn money' when I click on a symbol. I believe some of my brokers have the ability to handle my full set of holdings (read as stuff held elsewhere also) and if you cannot restore the functionality I will need to explore to where will I go. MSN Money portfolio is the major MSN feature keeping me as a paying customer.

    It may be that the 'youngsters' need very visual screens to function. I want the functionality of nice tight information display without needing to page all over the find what I want. The portfolio manager of last year worked well; this new one is terrible indeed.   Actually the old MSN was better too if you liked information and not a lot of pictures.

    Please help - make the old one re-appear for a paying customer !!

    P.S. I don't know if all stocks and funds did in fact 'import' correctly as the new system is so far from meeting my needs I really didn't bother to look to see if anything was missing. I can find better info on my brokers sites for the accounts with each broker - MSN portfolio pulled things together - when it worked right !!  Clearly the new portfolio manager does not do what its name implies !!!!

    You do not need to pay to get portfolio manager.

    I've tried importing my portfolio over 10 times and every time it says it didn't work and to retry in a few minutes.  Don't know what else to do. I have been using the old portfolio manager for many many years and loved it. HELP PLEASE.
