Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I have several different computers. I have a TheBackShed login on a desktop PC that works fine. Lately I have been doing a lot of CMM2 software development on a laptop. I find that I cannot log in from the laptop even though I have the User Name and Password correct.  I have been careful to log out from the desktop PC before trying to log in on the laptop, but no go.

Any clues as to what is going on?

Thanks!

No clue, but I use multiple laptops and my phone and never log out (or in, since I don't know when).

I use different OS on the same PC and stay logged in parallelly in both of them without any problems.

Hi Bill

Do you by chance have a naughty AV program on the laptop? Norton, McAfee & others have been known to cause these sorts of issues. They are usually bundled with the machine as a trial version.

Just askin'...

Have you tried a different browser?

I also login on various machines (each one just once) and can use them in parallel.  I don't logout.

Works great :)
