Good evening.

I just came back to the use of BOINC since a couple of years of not using it, so I found out that now exists something called BAM and I thought: ok, this seems useful, instead of adding one by one all my projects every single time I format my computer (because this was exactly what kept me for about 2 or more years away from here), so I selected this way, once I installed BOINC. In projects I couldn't add any, since it only can sinchronize with the BAM thing, so I went to http://boincstats.com/es/bam/signup/ to add a project and I selected Rosetta. When creating an account it said it was being used already, so I went to the Rosetta project to make sure the old password and the new password on my BOINC account was the same to not have problems. Then I clicked the "find account" button on the boincstats site in Rosetta project, so it disappeared from the list.

Then, I went to my BOINC and pressed the Sincronize button, it says "please, wait", then "update complete" and nothing happens, I cannot see a single project on the list of my BOINC, and the Rosetta project is now gone forever on the boincstats site, so I cannot add it again.

The BOINC Account Manager may have the name of BOINC but outside that it's in no way affiliated with us. So any problem you have with it is best checked in their FAQ and if it cannot be found there, posted about in their forums.

This in case you fruitlessly sit and wait for someone to answer here, while it's very possible none of us know the answer. I sure do not offhand.

Sounds like you added the project the BAM successfully, but the default behavior is not to add the project to any hosts. If you go to the "My projects" page, you will see an option to "Attach new host by default" and icons to "Attach all hosts now" or "Detach all hosts now". You can also manage resource share, or manage hosts for just that project through this page.
