Problems with Sign In are usually for the following reasons:

Incorrect Username/Email Address or Password
Remember you can sign in using either your Username OR your Email Address.
When you enter incorrect details during Sign In, the screen will display relevant error messages to help you resolve the problem – usually this is an incorrect or mismatching Username or Password.

If you are having trouble with your Username, try to Sign In with your Email Address instead.

If your Username/Email Address is correct, then your password you are entering does not match, so you can set a new password.

When you do this, there are two outcomes:

1) You will see a message informing you the Username you entered is invalid, or that we do not have an account matching your email address. In this case, please Register.
