press <F2> you click on the symbol you wanted on the left pane... and click import
then you can show MT4 your csv location it will import.

Make sure the csv is in the format:

2014.07.18 09:15,7630.25,7630.25,7630.25,7630.25,0
2014.07.18 09:16,7629.80,7630.35,7620.05,7624.15,0
2014.07.18 09:17,7623.95,7626.10,7623.00,7625.80,0
2014.07.18 09:18,7626.45,7629.05,7624.15,7624.25,0

wrong format csv file not be imported.

1 - Go to History Center choose the symbol you want to update and click Import
2 - In the new window select the file you want to import. The file has to be in [MetaTrader]/experts/files. Beware of the time formatting: Excel has a tendency to remove leading 0....The file has to be as shown in the attachment. Otherwise it imports something but not quite what you want (at least for me).
3 - Click OK and check that the data number has changed.
4 - Shut down MT4 and reopen it.
5 - Go to Open Offline and check that the serie you imported has the right data number. This number actually changes if MT4 is on line.
