RE: Important Changes to Steemit.com and Wallet
Prior to the change how did you login? What browser do you use?
Let's start with what worked for you.
Feel free to hit me up on discord if you don't want to put this on the blockchain
Don't be embarrassed, if this had happened earlier, I would have been overwhelmed also.
Firefox. I must have saved the logins there on firefox a long time ago and then never thought about again. Never had any problem but knew somehow i was not really understanding what was really happening.
There's an ad for dating site under my comment! What???
Jepp, they have Google ads now too.
In firefox
Under options on the menu... (upper right corner)
I'm not talking down to you.. just don't know where we are starting
search password..
click saved logins
search steemit.com
click show passwords
Try that one on the wallet.
if it works...you can login to wallet and find your posting key to use on steemit.
If it doesn't work you are going to have to find that picture you took and search for your Master Key.
No you're not talking down to me at all. :) I'm really grateful for your help.
I will try that with firefox now. I do have the photo with the passwords. I tried earlier to type them in and couldn't do it... they are super long and complicated so i might have messed up every time. I'm going to look at firefox now. :)
I found it in firefox. It's not one of the four from the wallet. It says generated password on the photo i took when i started here. I have photos of 5 passweords. It's the one in firefox. Does this make sense to you? Is there a way to get it or one of the other 4 in the wallet login without typing it out
I think you might have to type it. I'm not sure what a generated password is and if it doesn't match any of your photos, I'm concerned.
A suggestion I have is to write it first breaking it into 4 digits or so at a time. (easier to keep track) Also, it is case sensitve.
Hi. I finally got it to work. Long story of weirdness. The log in asked for posting key. Then it asked for private key, lalalala. I did get in. Then i looked at my keys and permissions and they are totally different than what i had photographed in the beginning when i started here, I have no idea what that is about but no wonder they didnt work. I just went back to check if i could actually get into my wallet again. Yes. That's good. I then checked my keys and permissions again. And it appears that the active key and owner keys now have to be logged in (every time?) to see them again. I already photographed them all. This is not fun! Haha. Thank you for your help. Oh and i got into busy.org too :)
I just tried to power up and it is asking for passwords or a wif. It appears i don't know how to cut and paste them. Is that something people do? I don't know how to get the wif there either. manually entering these is exhausting. I'm sorry this is really so much stuff to figure out. Thank you very much for helping!:)
