I screwed up something on Payee names, can't figure out how to fix it

I was having an issue with Apple Pay when using my iPhone - every downloaded transaction was showing simply as a charge from Apple. Also, our small local butcher uses Comcast Business, and every time we used our Amex there, it was categorized as a Comcast charge.
I vaguely remember doing something that fixed that problem, but now all of my transactions are downloading with really long, descriptive payee names which often include unique characters like dates, etc.. As a consequence, the automatic categorization thinks nearly every transaction is new, and most things are showing as "uncategorized". It's taking several minutes each day to correctly categorize everything.
I'd rather undo whatever I did, and I'll deal with the handful of wrongly-categorized transactions instead of having to categorize nearly every transaction. But I can't remember what I did in order to undo it.
Ugh.
Can anyone help?

@RickO Tried both of those solutions already to avail. The problem is the Payee used to download simply as Amazon (for example). Now it downloads like this: AMZN MKTP US*1T8EI12AMZN.COM/BI
And every Amazon purchase has a unique code. It's not just Amazon. . .
Just don't know what the heck I did. . .0
