    Hi,

    I see that you must have not received the recent email response from my colleague but he stated that your account has been activated and you should be able to login to your account now.

    Let us know should you have further questions or concerns.

    Yes I did see that, but it happens alot and someone awhile ago was trying to figure out why and I hadn't heard anything if they could figure out why it keeps happening, I don't ever get failed attempts. I log in and out all day with no problems and then randomly it says I've had 5 or 10 failed attempts.

    We are sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused. I see that your account is locked again. Please note that HIPAA accounts will be locked out if multiple login attempts are made without using the correct password. Please check if there is anybody else from your team are trying to login and reset the password if necessary.

    Your account is activated again and you should be able to login to your account. Please get back to us if you need any further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Hi, great thanks. We use the same password and have never had a failed attempt with it, that's what is weird about it. No one has had a failed attempt yet it says it has had several

    You have mentioned that 5 of the users access the same account so it is possible that any of them could make wrong login attempt.

    We have also flushed the login attempts for your account too. You may save your password so that you do not have to type the password every time.

    Thanks.

    Hi, the password is saved so we don't have to enter it everytime. We've discussed it a lot and none of us have had a failed attempt, always seems to be successful

    Good Afternoon,

    We have been locked out again, I've also haven't been able to log on to jotforms today as it keeps telling me there is a temporary back end issue.

    It happens if you have multiple failed login attempts. I have re-activated your account again. Please try logging in to your account and let us know if you need further help.

    Thank you,

    If you read the above thread you will see this happens many times and no one has had any failed attempts, we log in everyday with no issues. Someone was going to look into the issue at your end but I never heard anything.

    Now my computer is giving me the "temporarily back-end unavailable" which I haven't seen before
    . We also have troubles logging in to jot forms sometimes, we have to log in a couple of times before it will prompt us to enter the username and password. It's been an ongoing issue which is why I usually just ask to unlock us rather than changing the password everytime it happens.

    Thanks

    Melanie
