Password problem

[simonglet]

Hi,

It seems that the iPhone Skype App has problems with long passwords. Logins work fine with the Windows 7 and Mac OS X clients but when I type my 15 caracters long password in the iPhone App the login fails. My password has no specials caracters just letters (no accents) and numbers.

Do anyone else have this problem ?

Thanks

Simon

My password is also 15 characters long and I have no trouble, but then I use 1Password to automatically log in so there's no mis-typing which might just be what is happening with you :smileywink:

Following your response I checked the login name too and found out that there were a couple of spaces on it's left ...

Thanks !!

Simon

I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND NEITHER OF THESE ANSWERS ARE ANY SOLUTION.  I HAVE CHANGED MY PW TO A SHORTER ONE AND IT STILL DOES NOT HELP.

A friend of mine is having an issue with logging in to their account. When they try to enter the password they are sure is correct, it is not logging them in. And when she attempts to get a temporary password, it tells her to wait 24 hours and try again. This has occurred multiple times in the last three days.

Forgot to add, this person is deployed overseas with the military. Not sure if that's why it isn't working.

I have a password problem. After several failed attempts to cut and paste and key in a tempore password I give up. I have been trying for two days, waiting for another password that did not work. I have just tried to login on this page, to be told my login cannot be right. It appears on my screen, skype put it there. What do I do next. HELP !!

I'm having the same problem, and I'm in the USA.  It says to check junk mail, but there is nothing there either.

I am having the same problem. I know my skype name and password are correct because it lets me in on my PC. I have uninstalled and reinstalled on my iphone4. Another question: why does this support network topic claim there is a solution? Idiotic! Also, a call-in support # might help.....

I have the same problem. I updated my password on the main Skype web page but this does not pull through to the Skype App on iPad or IPhone. Anyone else getting this?.
