Do I have to find all of them and change all before it will work? Unfortunately, yes. >2. If so, is there an easy way to find them all? Not really. I tried using the sql back end to change things (through direct manipulation in the tables, which is NOT recommended), but the result was not successful. The sources were changed, but retrieval failed. I didn't feel like exploring further, so I went back to my original file and changed them manually. >3.

Then I ran get quotes, and checked the errors, which were inevitably omissions on my part. Rinse and repeat until you don't get errors. Perhaps it would be advisable to take this opportunity to clean out the older securities and turn off retrieval for them. Those lookups take time, the prices take space, and it doesn't really serve your accounting any real purpose to keep retrieving them.
