[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1818803, member: 204485"] I just tried to login to the MF app on my iPhone, using the same password manager as I used to login successfully on Safari in MBP. I checked the passwords were the same just in case and got "Your User Name or Password is incorrect and you have used up your quota of unsuccessful login attempts." I have deleted the app and reloaded it but am unwilling to try again for 15min. While I was was waiting I tried to login on Firefox on MBP, typing in my user name and cutting and pasting the password I know is working on Safari and same deal!!! Now I'm locked out on Firefox which is my default browser on my iPhone. This is getting ridiculous. I have two browsers on three devices plus the app on two of them. Thats a total of eight required logins that need to be updated, they all used to work until I tried to change my password. Now I am limited to Safari on MBP only until this gets sorted. I won't be changing my password on this site again any time soon I can tell you that. The "one strike and your out" for 15min is the big issue, that really needs to be resolved. Anybody can make a mistake at least once. [/QUOTE]
