Yes I did. To madmacs. I don't wanna change the name, but the email address.

I did that but then it won't let me log on telling me that my password is wrong. (I never changed the password.) I clicked on Recover Password button and it reset my password sending it to my old email address. But my email address was also reset to the old one. I tried many times to change my email address but this same sequence repeats. What gives? vtzete0 on "How do I change my email address that I registered with How To Geek?" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/how-do-i-change-my-email-address-that-i-registered-with-how-to-geek-1#post-119723 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 16:49:32 +0000 vtzete0 119723@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ Once you are logged into your HTG account, you should see a 'My Profile' option in the blue menu above. On the top right corner of 'My Profile' you should see the 'Edit Profile' link. madmacs on "How do I change my email address that I registered with How To Geek?" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/how-do-i-change-my-email-address-that-i-registered-with-how-to-geek-1#post-119722 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 16:49:16 +0000 madmacs 119722@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ My Profile -> Edit profile... enter new e-mail address.

Are you wanting to change your email address because you switched providers? I'm not sure why they are not just telling you how to do it. I have several email addresses and i might decide i don't want to use one anymore and i need to update HTG with the one i want to use. I'm not sure i see the problem. Anyways,if you click on " My Profile" after you log in you can edit your profile and change your email address there. algotechie on "How do I change my email address that I registered with How To Geek?" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/how-do-i-change-my-email-address-that-i-registered-with-how-to-geek-1#post-119719 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 16:43:19 +0000 algotechie 119719@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ Please madmacs do not make fun of it. If I wanna change my email address, HTG should allow it. What do you think? (Please be serious.

There is absolutely no problem with you wanting a new name but we will not accept 2 names from the same acount!!.

I don't u'stand it. If I make a new account without any mention of my previous email address, how will the previous contribution be gone?
