Troubleshooting…
How can I tell if I'm logged in?
* Is the 'Log In' button disabled but the 'Log Out' button enabled? If so, you're logged in
* Is there an actual domain listed at the bottom? If so, you're logged in. If it says, "Select a Domain", you are not logged in.
Why can't I change the domain?
If a domain name is listed, but you can't change it, then that is the only domain you can use. This is actually very common.
Why won't the 'm' and 'e' buttons don't do anything for me?
Those two buttons provide the default data center addresses for our North American sites. But they are only enabled when the 'Server Address:' field is empty. If you are clicking on them and nothing is happening, there's still text in the server address field - clear it, then try those buttons again. They should have slight underlines when they are enabled.
I don't know know the server address?
Currently, all BLOX sites are handled via one of two North American based data centers. If you have cleared the server address field, click the 'm' or 'e' buttons. Then try your log in. For most users only one will work. If one works, that is the one you need to use. Luckily, if you've successfully logged in once, the BLOX Total CMS client plug-in for Adobe Photoshop will remember your last log in.
Still can't get logged in?
Try resetting the plug-in's cache using the Reset Cache option as shown below:
Resetting the Cache is a good way to get back to an initial log in opton.
Make sure you can log in using a browser. It could be that you've lost internet access or your account is disabled or you've changed your password.
The BLOX Total CMS client plug-in for Adobe Photoshop will attempt to use your cached password if it is 12 characters in length or longer. But if you have changed your password, it will only know your prior one. Clear the password field and type the correct one followed by clicking the 'Log In' button.
