I don't know if anyone can help me with this but I can't access my old account any more. I'm still up and running but can't change any of the settings or add new projects. Please e-mail me at the address associated with this account if you're someone that can help me. I don't want to lose credit for my previous projects and would like to add a new one. Thanks in advance for your help.

Is this maybe related to BAM, the Boinc Account Manager run by Willy?

If that is the case, you should contact him, maybe through the forum on www.BOINCstats.com

Good luck!

Message 5153 - Posted: 29 Jul 2006, 21:57:06 UTC - in response to Message 5152.  

It's in regards to my main account. My previous e-mail address was at my old job and I don't have a record of my account key (or whatever it's called). Without the account key I can't change my e-mail address and without the e-mail address I can't have my account key mailed to me. I is stuck and can't change anything regarding my account. :P Is there a way I can recover my old login account info somehow?

Your old account WHERE?

(This is the BOINC forum, not a project forum.)

You can find each project account key in a project specific file with the name "account_*.xml" where the * stands for the project server URL.

Those files should be in the BOINC directory on your BOINC computers.

On the project servers, you can use your email + password OR your account key, so you can use a login with the account key to modify the email and password.

You can't use the account info for one project on a different one.

Just create an account at the project you want to add and then attach to the project through the manager.

Actually you should be able to create your account through the manger when you use "attach to project" under the tools menu.
