Hi! My computer was broke for a while and just got it running again. Requested new password last night to log in and see what's new and all I can get is this message "The specified password activation key was incorrect or has expired. Please re-request a new password. If that fails, contact the forum administrator at [email protected].". I tried several times, requesting new passwords --- and got the same message every time. That was using Firefox browser. I just opened IE and tried again and was able to request a new password and log in. Changed the temporary password to a more memorable one and opened Firefox and tried to log in from there --- STILL won't let me. If I'm logged in from one browser (IE), shouldn't I still be logged in from a different browser (FireFox)? Oh, and I emailed [email protected] last night and didn't get a reply. Thanks! Lisa
Try deleting your browser cache and then try deleting the BYC internet cookie on your PC. See more here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=280709
Hi Rob! Thanks for the link! Logged in just fine after I deleted the FireFox cookies (FireFox>tools>options>privacy>clear) . I had deleted cookies/temp files last night, but didn't know FireFox had 'other cookies' and until I followed the link. Problem solved. Lisa
I logged in with my husband's computer and Firefox once and never ever was able to log in on my computer on Firefox after that. I had the mods reset my password and I did all that delete cookie stuff. Consequently I use IE for some websites (BYC) and Firefox for others (Facebook)
