: I've downloaded a demo version of Fund Manager to test it's functions. One of these is retrieve the yahoo transactions. I've used Yahoo for many years and I keep doing so because I can post my portfolio on the web for all to see. What I would like to do is to import these transactions into FM and for the future keep posting to yahoo and retrieve the transactions.

: Anyway, I've tried following the instructions but to no use. Does it work or not? Anyone have a success story to share with me?

: Thanks in advance.

Hi Jeff,

I believe Yahoo no longer offers the ability to retrieve transactions from brokers/mutual funds, so you now have to manually enter any transactions into your Yahoo portfolio. This has changed the way the Yahoo portfolio works, and it no longer can be pulled down by Fund Manager. Given the new transaction retrieve capability in Fund Manager, that Yahoo portfolio feature is now obsolete, and will be removed in the next release. You may prefer to look into the new transaction retrieve feature. You can read about that at:

Thanks,
