I can't sign into one of my teamwork projects, whenever I try I get a message box that says Attempting to sign in until you press cancel, I waited a while and nothing happened. I do not get the screen that allows me to type in a name and password only this message. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance

Jcrim.
What you can do is to sign in as Administrator. What you can then do is force sign your self out. To sign is as admin take change my workspace
------> sign in as Administrator.

HTH.

sorry ben - gotta read more closely...

jcrim-

What has happened is either that someone else is currently trying to sign in, and you're in line behind them, or AC crashed while someone was signng in. AC creates a file with the extension .lck during the sign in process. Delete this file, and you'll be good to go. If you read the file with a text editor, it will tell you not to delete the file unless you're sure noone else is signing in. Heed its advice.

Hope that helps.
