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!

    In case you were unaware, Morningstar, like many others, has a limit of 100 stocks per portfolio. If you pay you can get 200. If you have less than 100, it is as good a free alternative to the old Portfolio Manager that I have found.

    The old watchlist was very easy to use.    I have clicked on your new form many times.

    It is not working.   Also there is an orange colored circle in various parts.    Why did you

    choose to fix something that is not broke?

    I just checked out Morningstar.com and input 3 of my stocks for testing.  There's actually more column choices there than on Portfolio Manager.   Of course, the one thing I can't transfer is the old transactions from years gone by, but MSN is killing the old Portfolio Manager at the end of October so I have to move somewhere.   Certainly MSN's Watchlist is nothing but a TINKER TOY of a stock portfolio tool the way it is now.  I'm not going to wait.  I'm going to move everything to Morningstar.  I only own about 50 stocks  so it's under the 100 stock max at morningstar.  I'll keep monitoring this msn Discussion group to see if Microsoft changes their mind and keeps PM, but folks, I really have my doubts this time.  They have messed with PM a few times over the years.  This looks like the death of it since it appears they want one platform that conforms to small cellphone and tablet screens and also works for PC's.  Such a bad ending for us, the customer, IMO.    You know, I was going to buy a Microsoft Surface 3 $1200 tablet, but I'm so **** off I think I'll get the new iPad instead and dump my Windows phone and get the iPhone 6 too.  Apple doesn't do this kind of thing to its customers.
