Forum login names messed up

Just fyi in case anybody else is seeing this, something's gone wrong in an Adobe forum s/w update in the past couple of days that is messing with people's login name / account names, end result being that displayed user names in messages are either corrupted or jibberish or some variation thereof.
There are also issues with carriage returns going wonky while entering msgs.
Some workarounds (involving multi-step login/logout procedures) have been suggested in various threads on the Forum Comments section, here:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/general/forum_comments
although it doesn't sound like there's a single solution that works in all cases, at least not as of Nov. 18 a.m.

Oh, and another reminder, in case you've been hit with the "logged out while posting" problem and thereby lost your carefully crafted missive that you just spend untold minutes composing.
Although this happens with annoying frequency on the Adobe forums, it's not just Adobe that is afflicted by this problem.
The good news is that there are a couple of addons for Firefox that will avoid losing "form" entries when composing in a browser. The one that I'm familiar with is Lazarus, from the same folks who created the brilliant InterClue add-on for Firefox, here:

  • How to pass login name and password

    Hi all,
    If this question has been asked before, please let me know, and I am sorry for duplicate the question raising.
    I want to use the login name and password which are entered from the left frame(topic frame) in the right frame ( the content frame).
    I have 3 jsp programs, "A.jsp" is for validate the login (name and password), "B.jsp" contains a form-submit to add the records to a database. "C.jsp" is the actual one which does the updating to the database.
    Q1, how can I re-use the login name and password for "B.jsp" and "C.jsp"?
    Q2, is there any security problem to do so?
    your useful reply will give me a great help.

  • Where did multiple saved login names go in ios8 Safari?

    Where did multiple saved login names go in ios8 Safari? In io7 you could have multiple logon names for a given webpage, and select which one you wanted, and even though these different names are saved in saved passwords in the Safari settings, I can't access them.  Safari now just allows one saved name/password per webpage, and if you want to change this name, you have to turn off saved passwords, and type in the new name and password.  Ios7 worked great, why did you mess around with something that worked?  If I could, I would roll back to ios 7.

    You should get an Open In window that pops up in Safari that allows you to choose the app in which you want to save the PDF. If you do not have an app that works with PDF files (iBooks, Adobe Reader) you cannot save the file anywhere.

  • 'Incorrect Login Name' error after migrating application in planning

    Hi,
    We are doing a migration to Planning 9.2.1 from a pre-system 9 version (3.5), using sql server 2000 as repository
    System 9 is installed in a fresh new server, and we are copying the applications/repositories from the old server.
    The admin user is the same in old installation and in new one.
    At the moment, all products are installed in the same server
    We have already sucessfully migrated the essbase applications, including substitution variables and users
    We had a problem creating a new application in planning, reading these forums we added External Authentication to Shared Services, and created application succesfully.
    We created the UDL for old database in SQL server and new essbase. Test connection was succesfull
    Created DSN based on UDL, test connection was succesfull
    We inserted application to migrate into PLN database, table HSX_DATASOURCES
    Saved SID for admin user (5001)
    Opened Desktop Planning, and opened the aplication.
    We got the 'upgrade application' message, and we upgraded it. No errors reported.
    We replaced the SID with the previously saved one. Actually, they are the same SID
    Now, when we try to open the migrated application in Desktop Planning, we get a 'Failled to Open application: M_09 Incorrect login name'
    We have already verified that the admin user id dbowner of the database in sql server 2000
    The event log only says the following
    Error*16*HypAdmin*4/15/2009 11:54:12 AM*CHspSession.cpp*Line 119*Incorrect login name*
    Any help will be appreciated!
    P.S. please excuse my writing skills, I am not a native english speaker.
    Edited by: hectorsosar on 15/04/2009 10:44 AM

    Please nevermind my previous post. I didn't read carefully enough, that the SID to save and copy was from the newly created applciation, not from old app. Now everything worls ok.
    Thanks, and regards,
    Hector

  • OTN Enhancement Request - Changing of OTN email / login name

    From what I read it is currently not possible to change the email address / login name of the OTN forum. I would like to request an enhancement for this functionality to be implemented.
    It looks to me like the more than 4 year old request for this functionality has gone missing. :-)

    Unfortunately it is an id that might connect to an old firm you worked for and more troublesome it can be reused at the old firm.
    Strangely enough platforms like LinkedIn and other can handle this kind of changes to the login id.

  • "Login name" field randomly empty

    We have the Inventory Only client deployed. All is working well except that the "Login name" field is only filled in with about 10% of the scanned stations and those 10% change after every scan. It seems that this field is filled in and emptied randomly. ZCM Version is 10.2.1 (did not work in earlier version either). Workstations are W2K and XP, all with client 4.91sp2. Happens with both OS's. The scans on the workstations happen when users are logged in during the day. I have changed 'determining Primary User' but that does not seem to affect anything. Any idea where this field gets its value on the local workstation ?
    thank you

  • Locating Phone w/ Find My iPhone When Login Name Changed on Icloud

    My  son had his iPhone 6 stolen and it was registered on Find My iPhone.  About 10 days after it was stolen, while we were periodically monitoring iCloud to see if it ever got turned-on, my son changed his login name & password on iCloud.  So now we has two devices (iPhone 6 & iPad) with the old name on them with corresponding passwords, and his iCloud account with a new name & a new password.
    To add perspective on my question, even though the iPad had the old name & old password, it was located on his iCloud Find My iPhone map  & iCloud would indicate when the iPad was turned on or off. Just to confirm, his iCloud account has a new login name & new password.   What I'd like to find out is since there appears to still be a linkage between his iCloud account and his iPad, would it follow that there would continue to be a linkage with his iPhone 6 (old name/old password) and his iCloud account.  If the linkage continues, we would  continue to monitor his iCloud in case the phone gets turned on;  if not, we will of course just have to move on.   Thanks very much for any help with this. 

    I've learned a lot about Apple Customer Service and this forum through the unfortunate theft of my son's phone.  First of all, the customer service people at Apple are poorly trained.  My first 4 calls during the theft resulted in totally different answers by 4 different people.  One techy from Florida was adamant that we would not receive an email if the stolen phone was connected to the internet via wifi/or 4g.  He, of course, was  completely wrong, and this is about as basic an issue as you can get with Find My iPhone. And I continue to wait, going on close to a week now, for what should have been  a fairly routine question from a "tier 2" or Senior Adviser as they're called, for an answer to our question.
    When I stumbled upon this Apple "Support" Community, I was elated.  I thought, at last there's bound to be someone here who could give us some help, perhaps an Apple employee that hangs out here and  tries to "be there" for their customers.  Well, after waiting about 3 days and seeing that over 100 people have read my question, I am frankly surprised that not even one person has offered any help at all!   Based on my personal experiences with the Apple Customer Service Department and this  Apple Support Community, I am not impressed. 
    I am very familiar with the way a good tech forum works and quickly learned this is not such a forum. I realized I had to go somewhere else to look which I did.  I found another Apple forum (not run by Apple btw),  and I posted the exact same question.   I received a reply within 20 minutes.   I suspect I will receive more throughout the day with the kind of advice and help I was hoping to get through Apple Customer Service and/or this Support Forum.
    My reason for posting this comment to your support community  is to let other new people realize there are other much, much better places on the internet to look for help and support with their Apple  problems and issues.

  • My Oracle Forums Handle Name Changed without my notice!!!

    Hello Oracle Forums Moderators,
    I joined Oracle Forums 04/04/08 with and email address (1). I decided to change my email address and handle names, so my forums handle name is cutedba and my email address is (2). I already had like 8 posts in oracle forums. Today when I logged to oracle forums I found my handle name is user8722709 and my posts resets to only one post (with this thread, it will become two posts).
    and my joining date became 08/19/09.
    I went to the control panel and edited the profile and handle name to cutedba. I received the following message:
    "The handle you are trying to update is already being used, please identify any other value and retry."
    and I logged as my new email address (2) as usual. Please fix this for me. Because I am the cutedba in Oracle Forums.
    I also want to mark one of the threads I created earlier as answered but I can't the forum thinks I am not the author of that thread:
    How to install multiple oracle homes in oralce 9i on unix
    Thank you and best regards,
    cutedba

    Ok, let's see if I understand this clearly (cos if I don't then I'm sure the site admin won't)...
    1. You created an account (let's call it "Account 1")...
    Acount 1:-
    Email Address: [email protected]
    Forum Notifications Email: [email protected]
    Handle: {default}
    2. You created a second account (let's call it "Account 2")...
    Account 2:-
    Email Address: [email protected]
    Forum Notifications Email: [email protected]
    Handle: {default}
    3. You modifed Account 1 to change the Forum Notifications Email and the handle:
    Account 1:-
    Email Address: [email protected]
    Forum Notifications Email: [email protected]
    Handle: cutedba
    That's right.
    all my forum participation were updated including post numbers.
    What was updated? All you did was change your notification email and your handle on Account 1?You are right.
    I also successfully login using email id (B) with the password, no issues.Yes, I dedicated an email account for oracle stuff and I used it to create an oracle account (Account B) because I couldn't delete/disable Account A from oracle.
    >
    4/ submitted a new thread in oracle forum as in the link I mentioned earlier.I don't see that has any relevance.correct!
    5/ when I visited back Oracle Forums Today, I saw that my post count reset to 1 (last reply) and the system identified me as a different user (user8722709) than cutedba. I went to the Control Panel and Modified the Name Handle for forums back to cutedba . I received the message mentioned earlier.Which account did you log on as?Account B
    It seams that Oracle forums end me up with two identities!!But you created two, so there will be two. ?:|Because oracle will not delete/disable account A
    Please I need you to help on fixing this issue.I'm just a user of OTN like yourself, I can't fix it, I'm just trying to help ascertain exactly what you've done.I understand, thank you for help and make this issue clearer even to me ;-)
    One more thing, I logged in to oracle forums using email (A) and my profile cutedba is there.Brilliant, that's what I'd expect.
    I went to the Control panel and found the Username is still with email (A) but the forums email is with email and (B).Exactly, that's also what I'd expect.
    But why still the the username did not changed and my profile is not updated yet?On which account?Account A
    Occasionally, if OTN have been doing upgrades or such things, I believe the forums will move across to the failover servers, so sometimes changes to profiles may not be picked up or transferred back to the main servers. However, you said you'd logged in with Account 1 and it said cutedba on it.
    I think it is the same bug in the forums.
    I feel this too.
    I wish if OTN has the ability to allow users to delete account that are no longer necessary, like my case here. Account A is no longer necessary for me but if switched the handle names between account A and B, I still can't get the credits and links for Account B profile.
    How to report OTN bugs?

  • Login Name same as BBID Screen Name?

    Greetings all!
    I am trying to figure out if when I created my login name to this community, I made it unavailable to use as my new BBID screen name....could it be because I created this login name prior to receiving my new device??
    I went without a BB for a couple years - my BBID is the same - but my screen name has been changed (several numbers were added to it).
    Sorry for what may be an obvious thing....but I would really like to have that screen name (MiaCam) and don't want to use it here on the Forums if it might offend whoever may already have that as their BBID screen name.
    Thank you very much for humoring me and for any answers and/or solutions in advance!!
    All my best to you,
    "MiaCam"
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    My guess is that someone had the screen name already and the BBID creation process just "suggested" a screen name based on the one you wanted. It happens to me all the time when I use "John Clark" as a screen name as there are thousands of John Clarks.
    The BBID screen name and screen names on this forum and not tied together.
    Hope that helps.
