Alright, so I can log on just fine on my normal computer just fine without any problems, but when I try and log on onto any other computer other than my own, it keeps giving me the "Invalid username and/or password" even though I typed it in correctly.

I do tend to not log myself off as well off my main computer, so can that be the cause of it too?

Logging in from somewhere else while logged in elsewhere isn't normally a problem.

Do you have your password saved on the 'main' computer, or do you type it in each time?

If the former, the most likely scenario is just that you have misremembered your password and so are entering it incorrectly elsewhere.

Recently I have been doing the latter these days.

Seems like a good plan. I have never used the remember password feature ever since my "teenage script kiddie" phase where I learned just how easy it is to make a computer cough up its internet password cache remotely (that was just Internet Explorer and it was years ago...hopefully they've gotten better by now but I still err on the side of paranoia). That said the number of "reset password" emails I send myself boggles the mind on occasion...

Anyway I can confirm you can be logged in at multiple places. I think you can even do it simultaneously.

Like watching other people play video games (badly) while blathering about nothing in particular? Check out my Youtube channel: joemamaUSA!

Yeah you can. I'm forever leaving a page open on the computer and then using my tablet. Or vice versa.
