All stock symbols are not loading rt data

Hello,
I've successfully got eSignal working (thank you Thomasz) but now I've created a watchlist with most of the S&P500 stocks (495) and only 235 are populating with data. The rest are just blank with no data filling in like AAPL and SPY. Those that loaded data did it over about an hour. It's been about 36 hours and the others still aren't filling in. I've read through articles about forcing backfilling but seems the data is just supposed to populate. I have the eSignal Signature subscription which allows for 500 symbols at a time.


I've done the usual restarting but no dice. I'm using 64 bit version of Amibroker 6.43.1 and eSignal data manager version 10.6.
I can't tell if this is an eSignal or AB thing.
Thanks in Advance
Here's my Broker.log file:

Each signal subscription has its symbol limit. Check with eSignal, but they were not offering 500 symbols, but less. Also if you have open eSignal itself it consumes available symbols too.

Last thing check if those symbols aren’t marked to use local database only in Symbol Information window.

Thanks for the suggestions Tomasz.
For anyone else this happens to, I did have a 500 symbol subscription package but it turns out the Exchange approval form for Nasdaq was incomplete when I signed up on eSignal so I was not yet receiving any of the Nasdaq symbols. All good now.
