does anyone have a best practice for the passwords
Every time I load a contest I have to hunt for the email with passwords. No way to go to a universal password is there ? Joe

Hi Joe,
I never have this issue. There is something amiss with your
setup. I wish I had an answer for you. Are you using the latest
version of each contest?

A long time ago I printed my N3FJP password list out and placed it in a folder in my file cabinet. I also took a picture of that page with my iPhone and saved that to a secure folder in the phone and on my station computer - and backed it up to a thumb drive.

Joe your passwords are supposed to be stored in the folders that were installed for each contest. Look in your Documents folder there should be a folder named Affirmatech, then inside the N3FJP folder should be folders of each contest. I believe the password for each one should be where they belong. if they are not stored there then your program missed something.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your e-mail. You only need to enter the passwords once. The only time you should have to reference the password list after that is when to move to a new PC, so keep them around for that eventuality, but otherwise, you should not regularly need to refer to the list.
If you ever do lose your password list, you can e-mail us direct and Kimberly will send you another list.
Enjoy!
73, Scott

I used to have the same problem. I have a folder in my email for N3FJP so what i did was make a subfolder that I call KEYS. I put Scott and Kims email with the keys/passwords in that subfolder. also in that folder are direct correspondence I might have with Scott and Kim Mel NE9A

Depending on which service you use for e-mail, some will let you create and name folders for saving your e-mails. I have been doing it that way for years and it's quick as I have a single place to look. My other thought is to print Scott's email and keep it in a handy place. Best wishes es 73 Joe KJ8O

If using an IPhone, I usually save in Contact Notes

Under N3FJP. Guess you can do that also, wherever you save your contacts. XS Max

I keep them in a text file in the folder where my log files reside (which is not the default folder, so I can find it easily) and also backed up in another location.

Hi Joe. I’ve handled the password situation in two different ways. Since I’ve changed computers 2 or 3 times since I’ve started using ACLog I have a hard copy printed of the original email Kimberly sent when I purchased the suite. After misplacing that email a couple of times I figured I’m going to fix this problem once and for all. I took the original email and scanned it into a PDF file and it resides in my documents folder with the name “N3FJP-Passwords”. This file gets backed up every weekend using SyncToy.
Typically the only time I need to refer to this document is when I decide to play in a contest I’ve never entered before. Other than that the various loggers in the suite are pretty good about remembering their various passwords.
Good luck.
73,

Thanks, yup every contest requires a different password when loading to the PC - this year i'm doing the state QSO challenge and decided to do wpx after a long time not doing it, then decided to start using ACLOG for the pota and wmplota stuff...yes, the password is the same for every state but i can never remember it 46 seconds before the contest starts and i get around to loading up the software (grin)...
