Can't log in; too many attempts

I have reset my password but Skype continues to prevent my login and maintains that I've made too many attempts; try again later. How long do I have to wait, and what can I do to solve this? It has not been working for some time. There is no network administrator to reset my login attempts so this is incredibly frustrating.
Thanks.

  • Too Many Attempts?

    I've just moved onto a new wireless router/network at home, and I can no longer connect to iChat wirelessly. All other internet applications work, but when I open iChat, it logs on, immediately logs off, and does it again and again until I get an error message saying that I've attempted to log in too many times in too short a period, so try again later (and all of my buddies are gray-ed out). Is there a fix for this? Or it is something wrong with my wireless router/network?
    Thanks in advance!!!

  • IChat keeps telling me I've tried logging on too many times...

    Ok... so here's the story:
    I'm visiting my sister, and she has netgear... I tried logging on to iChat, and it went berserk, logging on and off several times in a row. And then a message popped up the next time I logged on saying: "You have attempted to login too often in a short period of time. Wait a few minutes before trying to login again." So... I searched on this website to see what to do about this, and I found that I need to change the port to 443... so I did it... but it won't even let me attempt to log in anymore, and the same error message keeps popping up.
    Is there a way I can reset this so it doesn't keep telling me I've tried to log on too many times? I've tried restarting, and that's just not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated... I'm gonna try turning the computer off and removing and replacing the battery to see if that words...
    thanks

  • I would like to sync using a certain e-mail address. I'm getting the message that I have made too many attempts to sync using the address?

    I would simply like to use the same e-mail address to use the sync option. After using an incorrect e-mail, I deleted that account. I am now getting an error message that states I have made too many attempts to create an account using the e-mail that I wanted to use. Thank you.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

  • I would like to update to Firefox 5.0.1, but I can't due to, too many things won't work with the version & will be disabled.

    I have wanted to update from 3.6.22, to 5.0.1, but can't do to the following reasons: I can't due to, too many things won't work with the version & will be disabled. They are: Microsoft. NET Framework Assistant 1.2.1, Iconix 3.90.1, HP Detect 1.0.5.1, Yahoo! Toolbar 2.3.5.201101200332202 (I don't care about Yahoo! Toolbar, because I don't use it!). As soon as these issues are fixed, I will be able to update, to the latest versions. These issues should be fixed & ready to work, before a new version is available. Thank you!

  • Locked out-too many attempts

    Hey, my main Skype account with all my contacts is locked. It has usually auto signs in, but for some reason didn;t today....I had forgotten the email associated with it, and now that I know which email, it won't let me get a password reset due to trying too many times.
    User [Redacted for privacy], thanks.

    That is almost the same issue that I am having, I just got done talking to live support and they suggested i changed my microsoft password, I changed it but it still says i am locked out due to too many attempts. I had forgotten my password after trying it at least 3 times, I changed my password and tried it again and it locked me out. I am using skype through the windows 8 store, and I am able to access it just fine on my other computer account but unable to go in it on this one.

    Hi,
    It is difficult to say if this is your end or the AIM servers.
    Historically AIM have updated their Buddy list info by deleting those screen names they believe to be out of use and releasing them for use again.
    This has always happened in Early December at about 4 other times a year.
    We also have the Leopard release and the interest that has sparked in iChat.
    Google have added the AIM protocols to GoogleTalk as well.
    If it does not resolve in a day at the most delete com.apple.iChat.AIM.plist from your Home Folder/Library/Preferences and restart iChat.
    You may need to reset the port to 443 but otherwise it will use the default info for Logging on.

  • IPlanet 5.0 error log sayss: too many fds open

    Hello,
    we are using iPlanet 5.0 on a windows 2000 machine.
    In the error log I found the following message:
    Not listening for new connections - too many fds open
    How can I check the number of open fds on a a windows 2000 machine? Where is the maximum number of open fds set?
    Can anybody help me?
    Regards Christiane

    Hi Christiane,
    This message is quite unusual on windows as fds means files descriptors and is more a unix parameter.
    Anyway, normally on Unix, you have 2 locations to modify the file descriptors:
    - One on the OS level (on solaris in the /etc/system file).
    - One on the application (iPlanet Directory Server).
    As I don't think there is any OS parameter for windows, then maybe the one on the Directory Server is there and would need to be increased.
    On a Directory Server 5.x (on Unix), this parameter is located in the configuration file: <server_root>/slapd-<your_instance>/config/dse.ldif
    This parameter is available (again, on Unix) under the "dn: cn=config" block and for the parameter name "nsslapd-maxfiledescriptor".
    You may try to see if this parameter is present in your config file, and if yes, try to increase its value. Do it while the Directory Server is stopped.
    Hope this would help. If it does, then please post back your feedback here, to share your solution with us.
    Cheers / Damien.

  • ICal Server: logs showing "Too many matching components" errors

    Setup:
         MacMini3,1 (Core2Duo) running OS X 10.6.8 Server
    Services Enabled:
         AFP
         iCal
         NetBoot
         Open Directory

    iCal Server:
         About 100 users in OpenDirectory, but the only thing OD is used for is to provide iCal accounts.  Our iCal clients are split evenly among native iCal client users, Thunderbird/Lightning users, and those who access via http.  One thing that may be worth mentioning is the way we use this calendar: Management has decided that they want one calendar user who gets invited to nearly every **** event that anyone schedules, an "overview" so that everyone can add this user as a read-only delegate, and then they can see what everyone at the company is up to at a glance.  So this has created one gigantic iCal account with perhaps 15 events per-day every-day for the last 3 years - and all 100 users have read access to these events.

    I am unable to understand this behaviour. The number of users still remain the same and the usage is as usual.
    Is there a way I can check what has gone wrong? I could not see any errors also in the alert.log
    Please suggest what can be done.
    Thanks
    Rajeshredo generation is the result of the activity on the system. You've therefore either started doing much more work - which the business users might well be able to let you know about - or you've started doing you existing workload extremely inefficently, which your business users will probably have noticed. I would start in this case, not with logminer, but with the business and the application - ebusiness suite for example keeps pretty good logs of what activity has happened on the system. Id also be interested in what was changed 3 weeks ago, because something was!
