Can't Log in with regular user & pass

I am trying to get a question answered. I was always able to access this forum with my usual username and password. Now the forums won't allow me to log in; instead they require that I re-register as a new user under my .Mac address. Though I have done that, I don't understand why they are putting me through all this fuss. I am unable to use my usual alias...duh! because I am already registered under that alias! But I'm not allowed to log in under it. When I click the login link I get a register as new user page with my address already set to my .Mac address. Can anyone explain this?

Greetings,
sorry to report same problem here, despite being very familiar with registering & use of web forums
and other sites requiring user sign up... in fact, this type of snafu has never happened to me over
years of use across dozens/hundreds of sites. Site Admins--Any clues or info based on some recent change of this forums config??
10.27.07: initially registered new account & alias (MeanPony) for use in the discussion forums;
can't access that account or retrieve password;
11.02.07: have now got 2nd new account with 2nd alias (switt44) apparently linked to the same email??
don't need two accounts & two aliases, even-though that is now the case!
Please, help me sort this out, so I can access the original account with the MeanPony alias.
very hesitant to publicly post email, so admin please contact me via the currently registered email,
to update MeanPony account and/or delete this switt44 account, because i don't need it or plan to use a new .mac email address. I'd actually like this whole post deleted, once this issue is solved if possible!
kind regards,
current alias: switt44 (needed to make this post)
previous alias: MeanPony (would like to access/update profile, subscribe/unsubscribe to previous posts etc.)

  • After Using Migration Assistant Can't Log On With That User Account

    I used Migration Assistant to move only my Settings and Users from my Power PC (User name RLE 5) to my Mac Pro.  Because of what I have read in these forums I did not migrate applications or and files/folders. I will do that manually.  After migrating I tried logging in to my user account RLE 5 on my Mac Pro, but it is telling me I am using the wrong password.  I used the same password I used on my Power PC, but with no luck.  On my Mac Pro I went into System Preferences>Accounts>RLE 5 account and changed the password.  I then rebooted and tried again.  No luck. 
    Can somebody help me with this problem? 
    Thank you.

  • Can't log in with new user and password i set up on new eprinter from HP

    I am unable to get into the ecenter on eprinter. Even when I try to rest password it does not recognize the email address. When I try to create a new one, it says it already exists. I m using my personal email account. Please help.

    Hello rgabriel24,
    If you are having issues logging into your ePrintCenter account try logging in using the Snapfish icon on the "Sign In" page. It is the small blue icon with a black fish on it located on the far right of the icons below the login and password fields.
    If you are still unable to login with this icon use the "Forgot Password" link with the Snapfish icon and try to have your password reset. If this works, you should receive an email with a temporary password you can use to login to ePrintCenter.
    Let me know if this works for you or if you need additional assistance.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!
    Although I work for HP, my posts and replies are my own opinion and not those of HP.

    Which keyboard layout you were using? German, French ... I suppose your layout is reset to the default: US and you are unable to find the "?" or "/" ...
    Please have a look into the keyboard viewer, to see how the layout of your keyboard is actually.

  • Can't log in with LXDM

    Another Arch newbie here!
    Basically I have issues with logging in with my LXDM display manager. I installed Arch toward the end of October and I'm still trying to shape it to my liking.
    What's supposed to happen : I can start my LXDE or Openbox session after selecting my username and typing my password.
    What actually happens : everytime I type my password and press Enter, the screen goes blue for a second and reverts back to the login screen. The same happens if I try to log in as root.
    Before running into this issue I was trying to configure keyboard shortcuts so that I can adjust the volume with fn/XF86 keys. I also performed an update at some point too.
    The last files I created or modified were /etc/X11/Xsession ; openbox/rc.xml ; etc/rc.conf and ~/.bashrc
    I can log in with both user and root account if I press ctrl + alt + F2 and the startx command works. I'm not using xinitrc.
    I tried to get some informations on the arch wiki and other website but didn't find a solution so far. I also wouln't like to make it worse by performing wrong manipulation which is why I'm posting about my issue here.
    Thanks in advance!

    Well, only /home/user/.bashrc had something written on it. The others are empty. Just deleted them and nothing changed, it seems.
    # ~/.bashrc
    # If not running interactively, don't do anything
    [[ $- != *i* ]] && return
    alias ls='ls --color=auto'
    PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '
    Maybe I should try to update Arch? or perhaps replace LXDM with something else and more stable?

  • ICal Server - Can't log in with Kerberos?

    Hello, I have been struggling the past few days getting ical server properly installed and configured to incorporate into our environment (just installed 10.6 server). I am very new to Kerberos, in fact never heard of it before getting into this, but would like to possibly use it as an authentication option. I have my master open directory installed and running, it says Kerberos is running, ldap as well as password server, all running. I created some test users in the LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 directory with open directory password types. I have opened ticket viewer and assigned tickets to these test users. In my Ical settings in server admin, I have authentication type set to kerberos. When I try to add an account via my ical client on my workstation (also 10.6 just installed), it searches and I get the message:
    "Ical found the CALDAV server "servername" but couldn't log in with the user name "username". Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then try again"
    If I click next and go to the calendar server options screen I select Ical server template, the port changes to 8443 I believe and I change it back to the default of 8008, and click use kerberos v5 for authentication, and uncheck Use SSL as I have that off. I then get the message of:
    "Authentication failed. The server does not support Kerberos authentication."
    Now, if I go completely backward, and change my iCal server authentication type to Digest, or Any Method, I can log in using any of my local user names and passwords and any open directory password users. This is great because it shows me the system is working, and I can get in, however what I don't quite understand is if I log in with a different/various usernames and passwords, I get a separate calendar for each login. When watching the apple demo video of Ical server here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bzMTpLv-EE&feature=related , it seems there is one calendar, and multiple users are logging in using different logins, but accessing the same calendar.
    So I guess my main questions are, why isn't Kerberos working, and how do I get it to work, am I missing something? And how do I get Ical server to operate the way it is in the video, so people log in with different various logins but are able to see the same "work" calendar as shown in the video.
    I appreciate any help/insight. Thank you.

    One additional piece of information that I don't know if it is a bug or if anyone else has this problem, but when I am logged in with a user, and access my address panel via my ical client, none of my locations, resources, people, or groups show up, every category is empty. However, if I start to type a search for a location name or user that I know the name of that I have added, THEN it will show up and I can click/select it. Almost behaving completely backwards, any ideas why these are not showing up without using the search??? Thank you again.

  • How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

    How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

    Shared how? The other users can read the documents or you all can read and write the documents?
    The first is easy just place the documents in /Users/Shared anyone can access the files there and the other users will be able to read them.
    The second is a bit trickier.
