[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1818776, member: 204485"] So I changed my Mac Forums password on my MBP. Took a couple of tries to get the password successfully stored in iCloud but worked perfectly after about 10 min. Then I went to the iOS app on my iPhone. It almost instantly told me I did not have editing rights. So I go to preferences and log out (according to prefs I'm still signed in). Now I attempt to login/sign in. The instructions seem to indicate I need to enter both my user name and email address rather than one or the other. I entered just my user name and using Enpass I copy and paste my new password after carefully checking it is the new password. I am informed I have entered either my user name or password incorrectly AND I have used up all of my quota of attempts and have to wait 15 min before trying again. Finally after about an hour I got signed in successfully. Tonight I attempted to sign in on my iPad, same problem!!! Worse than that I'm now locked out on my iPhone again after the "failed" sign in on the iPad and after only one attempt on each device. Come on!!! [/QUOTE]
