You need to use the symbol listed in File >> Find Symbol >>Specific Stocks.

In the case of Interactive Brokers do not use $MSFT or MSFT.

You need to change all use of the MSFT symbol you are using to the new one you see listed in the Find Symbol window. This is essential and then reconnect to the data feed:
File Menu: Procedure to Reconnect to the Data and Trade Servers

Otherwise, you will run into conflicts.
