Ok when I changed my password I signed out and signed back in to make sure it works then on my computer I tried it and it won't work it even says my profile dosnt exist. If your wondering how I'm on right is that I'm always signed in on my ipad. I sent a change password 20 minutes ago and I havnt got it what should I do.

Are you sure you're typing in everything correctly on your computer?

Maybe try clearing your cache.

It obviously worked if you're on your account now so I'm guessing it's something to do with your computer. So I'd recommend clearing cache first and making sure it's not auto-adding your password

hmm, i have no idea...  that really stinks.  imnochicken, you may be right...

I was thinking that same thing but if I log out of my ipad and it wasnt that I can never get back on the site. So it's to big of a risk for me to pull.

I think your best bet is to sign out of the site. Then when you go back to sign in, you will see a link labeled "I forgot my password". Click this link and follow the instructions. You will typically be sent an email to the address you signed up with instructions on how to proceed. These instructions will either contain your current password, a new temporary password, or a link to change your current password. I'm not completely sure, what process IPBoard uses in these cases, but it will likely be one of the 3 I listed.

If that fails, I suggest creating a new account, then post here again to escalate this problem to a site admin. They can usually reset your password for you.

Yep, DDD has it right.  If you can't get back on just start over and let the admins know what happened.  They can fix it all right up.  They're pretty awesome like that.
