when I came over from classic seti, I had just changed my e-mail address. I tryed to bring up my account with my classic seti and start again, but for some reason I could not access it. So I started a new account, is there any way to combine the old one with the new one? My old e-mail was georgis357@comcast.net

Since you are a fairly new member, you have a choice.

You can make certain that both emails are synchronized. The classic stats should be updated on the next update from classic.

OR you can activate your old account if it was created before May 14th 2004, and it had a result returned. The new activate can use the S@H classic password. Or you can use the S@H classic email address of May 14th 2004.

Question for John:

I kind of have the same situation as Stephen but want to add something to the mix and hope you can clarify this for me.

My classic account is linked to a boinc account that has an invalid email address (one that has not been used since the confirmation email with the BOINC login string when to a non-existing email address).

Since then I did start a new boinc account and did change the email adress of my classic account to match that new boinc account (I still have the password)

My specific question is: will the link to the 'wrong BOINC account' prevent syncronisation of my new boinc with my classic account?
(I ask this because the recent BOINC update did not manage to link the two together)

I could not find an aswer to this in the many posts I read on this topic. Maybe you have?

(I would love to see a possibility on the BOINC website where I can enter both passwords old and new to link these accounts together. If a previous link already exist then they should check if that account has any credits on it. If not then they should allow the new link.... maybe after a monitoring 'grace' period of the old linked account to prevent hijacking of a high classic account during a transfer)

I think that it will update the old account.

Why did you not just change the email? It is available in your account settings.
