I have authorized some merchants, such as Uber, to charge my PayPal account. I remember, when I signerd up for one, I cannot remember which, it said that I could edit default payment method & other such settings for those authorizations in my PayPal account settings, but I cannot find any such options. Where EXACTLY do I go, starting from the main/summary page after login?

You can do this in your profile. Click on the gear at the top right of the page. Then select payments. Then click on the preapproved payments link. This will show you all the preappoved payments and their statuses. Click on the merchant and you can change the status from active to cancel. Hope this helps! I just had to do this myself.
