| Is there a password retrieval option? I've forgotten mine. I'm OK on my main laptop because it is entered automatically but I can't access from a different computer. Don't change it because I'm not sure my e-mail is correct either.

| 'shoes, when you're at the login page, there is a 'Forgot Password' link The login window floats in the way, but you can click the 'Do Not Display Again' button, or you can still click in the field to enter your username and email address. I'm really not sure what happens from there, but I assume you'll receive an email with either the password contained, or a link to reset your password. Once you play with it, if you don't mind, share with me what that process entailed. | |

'shoes It's hell getting old! lol Now, on the same line, I told my wife the other day that I don't know anyone's phone number any more. I know my wife's and my mom's. I know just a few others. I used to know EVERYONE'S phone number. Now they are all on my cell. If I lose that I'm screwed. | |

Once you play with it, if you don't mind, share with me what that process entailed. I'll try it probably tomorrow and Joe you're right. Part of the problem is when you use the automatic log-in its easier to forget it when you need it. 'shoes | |

joe- Back-up your phone. That way you'll always have them and if/when you get a new phone you don't have to re-enter them even if you have a hard-copy somewhere. | |

| As usual, you do as well. NO ONE knows most people's numbers whom they call now-a-days. I see people all the time who exclaim, "Help! I lost my phone so now I need everyone's number!" Problem solved if you back your phone up, although you do need to remember your password... | |

| Please put me on your "do not read" list.
Your responses to me are inane. | |

| Admin- an update. For some reason my current log-in is tied to my old e-mail address. When I try to change the e-mail address to my current one-it says address already in use (probably by me from some other attempt at an account).
The problem is that if I request a new password it will be sent to my OLD e-mail.
I'm fine when I log on from this laptop because the password is put in automatically, but any other computer and I have a problem.
Any ideas?

| Let me go in and delete the other 'user account' that is associated with your old email.
Would you mind PM'ing me what the email address is so that I can go in and find it/delete it? | |
