Hi All,

I while ago I crunched some climate prediction units but had a major disaster with my pc, when I started again just a short time ago, I couldn\'t remember any of my account details and have long since changed my email address as well. I now have two accounts for this project with user id\'s of 7467 (the old one) and my new one with a id of 529378.

Both have the same user name and both are registered with the same team, can they be merged somehow?

No.

Pick the one with the most credits and use that.
At the top of your account page, is a option to change the email address.

Thanks Les, I\'ll have to go with the newer one then, as I have no account details for the old one, ie. no email address, password or account id.

Actually, you told us your old ID in your first post: 7467
This is your old account
And this is your new account

It\'s just a matter of changing the numbers at the end of the url string in your web browser. :)

And your old account key should be in the project\'s xml file in your boinc folder.
