Thank you, Anniet!

So far, no luck with the Einstein account. I have been waiting for it to finish the current chunk to see if there is an update in the authenticator. However, there has been a transmission deferral. I will keep trying and let you know.

Success!

Thank you, guys.

I had subscribed to two projects. Einstein and Seti @ their respective homes.

Einstein@home asked me for the authenticator, but then did not work. Seti@home did not give me the option, as has been mentioned. However, on a whim I pasted the authenticator into the password field and it worked. I was then able to change my email, password, etc.

Won't be forgetting this again!

Thank you for the info. I have opened the manager but the buttons bring me to a page that needs a password...

I am going to see if I can find the authentication key that has been discussed.

I have been away from BOINC for several years and have just been reminded that I should be donating cycles again. Unfortunately, I have forgotten my password and no longer have my old email address.

I do, however, still have one computer - that had not been fired up in years - crunching. In fact, that is what has now reminded me that I should be participating again.

Is there a way that I can send a password reset link to my new email address? Or alternatively, pull my old password from one of the XML files?
