    Something happened with my computer and it evidently logged me off and I haven't been able to log in. I'm sending this from my phone that didn't have the same goof up. I've tried every password on my computer that I can think of but haven't been able to get in or even change my password to something I can make a new note of. I looked all over the side for a contact to send a message for some help but I haven't found anything.

    If anyone has any suggestions I would certainly appreciate the assistance. Thank you

    Use you screen name

    click on “forgot password “

    You should receive an email to the last email address you used for your name.
    It might be a temporary PW that needs to be changed.

    You're quite the comedian alchemy:rolleyes:

    I tried the "forgot my password" retrieval method but don't get an email giving me a link to do anything about it. I'll be the first to admit, I'm about the most analog guy there is. My wife is the only reason I can use a computer at all and unfortunately she is gone for a few days.

    Sheesh. I had a thread deleted because I mentioned in a comment I'd just had a hip replacement, which is off topic...:rolleyes:

    the fact that you did not get an email back must mean that you have a different email address than you had when you signed up. Ryan is the only one that can fix this. send him a PM

    Thank you! I'm logged in now and will double check the e-mail address I have listed.

    Yes, I guess. I used my current e-mail and got squared away. Must have been some little glitch keeping me from retrieving my password? I'm really low tech but I'm sure I was using the same user name and e-mail in my attempts. In any case thank you very much for helping me out!
