Thanks to the admin, I'm back with my old birdingnut account (whew) at 8.3 level..

Thanks to my failure to save passwords outside of gmail drafts, when the Thai computer shop "fixed" a corrupted file by uploading new Windows software, I have found myself locked outside almost ALL my accounts, including Agnostic.com.

Plus all my photo files, with years of photos of birds vanished. I backed up many photos in the Amazon Drive cloud, but I no longer can access them..no password.

I had an alternate, backup email in Yahoo, but it had been so many years since I set up my account in 2005 that I'd forgotten it, along with any of the recent password changes, so couldn't access my stuff.

I tried all night to access my old gmail account..otherwise I don't have the passwords to my VPN, Facebook, etc. and the default websites are in Thai, with a different format than the US versions I've been using for 13 years.

I used the Chrome translate but they still weren't the same.

I've always had other devices so didn't worry about losing access my email, but I had to toss my Samsung tablet when it suddenly burned out, and bought a cheap little Huawei Android tablet with a pitiful camera.

I have only been using it for the Kindle and the google translate apps, and never activated the email or Facebook since I hate to text..

I never entered the Thai phone number for backup because I mistakenly thought they'd immediately begin calling my phone from the US to send adverts and run up a huge bill.

Besides, I have changed phones several times in the past few years since I buy cheap ones that only make calls, and they only last about nine months usually.

But due to my negligence, I'm now panicking..I really, really want to get my original accounts back-just my Facebook account is loaded with photos from Thailand.

I kept trying all night..only slept for two hours, but my attempts to enter new passwords just went in circles. Even when google told me I could give a new password and access my gmail, when I did, the website blocked me and called my new passwords "invalid."

This happened in all the accounts whenever I tried to open a new one. It took me hours just to get a new agnositic account and ask the admin for help.

I'm SO not techy.
