Two computers using same locost password
Canada EH! - 29/7/11 at 03:29 PM

I a just received new laptop, I used it to sign onto Locostbuilders, which ended up getting me a new password, now my old password won't work with my desktop. This may be just me and being computer illiterate I need help. Thanks from the colonies.

Yeah you'll have to use the same password (the new one) on both machines.

No, you'll have to hard - wire it into the LCB server over here - need a longish cable.....

I can't see how getting a new PC results in you having to have a new password for Locostbuilders. I regular sign into LCB from different computers - you sign in through the browser, not dependent on the PC... or have I misunderstood?

If (for whatever reason) you had to get a new password for LCB then you will use that from whichever PC.

Good luck, eh?

Down load Firefox anduse it as your web browser with Firefox you can easily check your saved pass and export & import passwords and browser settings and bookmarks between PCs.

New PC with no details. Can't remember the saved password. Get a new password, which stores itself on the new PC. Old PC still has the old password stored. Therefore, you need to log in to LCB on the old pc with the new password.

I can boldly say that I have signed into LCB on approx 30 pcs all over the country. Same sign in, same password!!!


Remember your password and username, and sign out each time!!!!
