Although I have the same user name, I have two accounts under my name. Some time ago, I needed to change my email address as it was compromised. Since I can not change details on projects that closed long time ago, I can not merge the two accounts. Is there a way to do this? Can you help Willy, please...

You mean "Sync retired projects"?

Thanks noderaser but I have tried that before a few times and it does not fix the problem as the duplicate accounts have a different email address and they can not be changed by me as most of them are retired or have been inactive for months and are inaccessible..Any suggestions Willy?

If they are not linked to your BAM! account it's not possible to sync them.

Thanks for the reply and clarification Willy. I did not want you to get too involved in this as I realize how much effort you must be putting into keeping this stat site running smooth. The only reason I mentioned this is that I have always used BAM ever since I started crunching years ago under the same user name, country and used the same email address, password until a month ago when my account was compromised and my email address was used as a spam host. I temporarily changed my user name to Shane70 and changed my email and password. Later I changed my user name back to Cruncher Pete for that is the name I always used since the beginning. Now cruncher Pete has four seperate accounts. Prior to this change, I only had the one account. I don't get it but it seems I have to get used to it.

Keep on crunching and have a nice day...

As long as your BAM! account stayed the same (name/email/password doesn't matter, ID does) the projects will stick with it.

I have the kinda the same problem. I have one username and my stats are syncing ok...
But when I search for the username "Nebbie" i see two users...

1.) My stats from "World Grid Community"
2.) All the rest of my stats

How do I get the one account to show all stats....
It appears the difference between the two username is a capital N on nebbie but that's it.

Kind Regards
Bevin

I had to change my email for BAM and all my BOINC projects last week. The CPID and BAM ID were changed in all but one active project, ABC@home, and all credit was transferred except that one and all retired projects.The day after I changed my email, I was selected as user of the day. I think that was because all of my previous credit was determined to be earned in a single day. I know old accounts cannot be merged with new ones and retired projects cannot always be synced. Therefore, I now have 3 accounts with the same user name. Also my BOINCstats BAM! ID and user ID on the stats overview page do not match.

Have you tried the trick of attaching all of your projects to one host? It might not be possible at all projects, especially if they are no longer exporting stats or have other errors, but it doesn't take up too much of your time and might solve a few of your stats issues. You don't actually have to do work, just attach the project and let it stay attached for a while, that will hopefully get the CPID at that project in line with your current one.

Good morning.
Changed my email address and now have two accounts under LawryB. All except retired and inactive projects have synched with my new email address. The inactive/retired accounts can't be synched so I was wondering how I could delete the old account. I don't care about the loss of credits, I just want to have one account. The old account is CPID 774f7a750fa2304804fffc5e591708fa User ID 701.

Best regards

Lawry
