i installed BOINC on my big mac, went to attach a new project, entered URL and account code, and got an error msg: invalid account key

having just copied/pasted this account key from the email msg, either it wont accept two computers on one account, or something else is wrong. tried to make a new account, but it wouldn't let me. any ideas? thanks

Most likely is an added "space" in the account key; but also, there is a change to using a password instead, depending on the version of BOINC you're running. If you've set up a password on SETI, you can use the password with V5.x...

There's no problem with having multiple computers on one account.
