Question:I've forgotten my password. Can you tell me what it is?
Answer:No. Passwords are encrypted so we cannot see what your password is.

There is no way to recover a lost password, but you can reset it here
 
 
Question:I've requested a new password but the email with instructions hasn't arrived. What should I do?
Answer:Check your Junk Email folder.
Your email filter may consider computer-generated emails to be spam and put them in your Junk Email folder.

If the email is not in your Junk Email folder and doesn't arrive within a reasonable time, we advise that you do not repeat the request.
One reason for not arriving is because your filter considers some computer-generated emails to be spam and refuses to deliver them. Yahoo email and similar providers sometimes reject computer-generated emails. Be assured that the email was sent; if it was not actually delivered then the reason is probably your email filter. Requesting a further email could make it even less likely to be delivered.

If you do decide to repeat the request, be aware that the email contains a security key. Only the most recent key will enable you to set up a new password, so if you repeat the request and the email of an earlier request arrives, its key will be ineffective. Therefore if you repeat the request and an email arrives, make sure its timestamp reflects the time you made the request.

If the email never arrives, please contact the Secretariat member@theapsr.org.
They will raise a technical support ticket.
