Hier is je oude account, maar BOINC accounts kunnen niet samengevoegd worden. Je zou een manier moeten vinden om op je oude email adres te komen, dan zou je met hulp van de log-in pagina jezelf een 24 uur durende log-in link kunnen sturen, waarmee je kunt inloggen op je oude account en daar een wachtwoord instellen.

Echter, als je niet op je oude email adres kunt komen, dan heb je pech.
Je hebt je (oude) Seti email ook niet meer, van toen je je geregistreerd hebt? Want daarin stond namelijk je gebruikers sleutel (account key), zo'n ding van 32 karakters tussen 0-9 en a-f.

BTW.

AFAIK,

You can't merge two SETI@home accounts into one.

You could merge/add the old 'SETI@home Classic Credits' with/to a new SETI@home account.

You could combine a few project accounts into a 'BOINC account' - so that your Credits are shown together in the overview.
Then you would need to use the same EMail at all BOINC projects.

AFAIK, if you have access to your EMail address which you used for your 1st account, then you could request a temporary PIN for one day.

There where you normally log-in.

You lost your old PIN?

Dave,

I think that my old user name is the same as it is now but i'm not sure about that one.

user id 7818345 (this is the old one, Cross-platform ID is also still available
user id 9315961 (this is the new one)

My old email is still usable, but if i try to log in it won't work

What is the best way to find any information about my old account.

Thanks
Berend

Hi and welcome

It is possible with some accounts but not others sadly I am sure someone will help you, do you have the user name of the other account to help us help you?
