I sent 2 PM's to you about deleting my account...the message box says "0 sent" so I don't know what's up. But I remembered my ID and password.
Please delete all activity and account "Rootstonian" please.
Thank you very much,
Roots

PMs turned off for some ?

Can users turn off accepting of PMs ? I sent a PM to a developer maybe a week ago. When I looked at my sent items, it doesn't show up. Then I imagined I backed out without hitting the right button, maybe I didn't it from my phone and something glitched, etc, etc. So today, I sent a 2nd one. I'm 99% sure... Checked and it doesn't show up in sent again.
Finally, I sent a 3rd PM, subject "test", and it also doesn't appear.
Yes you can turn PMs off and alot of developers do do this due to hundreds of pointless pm's

A good way to test if they have disabled PMs is to click on their username and choose send PM. If they have chosen to block them, you'll receive a message stating this.
And you also need to enable a setting allowing sent pms to be saved (in User CP)

That's what I'd expect if someone has blocked or turned them off. That's any person's right to do so, of course ! I would hope the system would let a sender know too...

I've never had to enable a 'save sent PMs' option on any vB site. If it's an option, I presume it's already on by default.
I have plenty of sent PMs currently too, so unless it was turned off since the last ones I sent previously, it should be okay.

[Q] Google Drive

I have a question regarding sharing files in Google Drive.
I just wanted to start by saying I am new to cloud storage (I used Dropbox but not very often) so please forgive me if this question is for noobs.
I started using Google Drive yesterday and placed a couple pictures of my son into My Drive. The pictures uploaded without a problem. I wanted to share them with my father. So what I did was place a check mark beside the pics I wanted to share, then clicked the share button. It went into the share settings and asked me to add people. So I added his email address and that showed up without issue. You can then select if you would like the recipient to edit, comment or view. I chose to have him view the file.
Once that was setup I went to the More drop down menu and selected share....email collaborators. Then I sent the email to him. He received the email with a link to the pictures, however it told him he must sign in with a username and password. I retried again and sent it as an attachment instead.
Why does he have to sign in with a username and password if I email collaborator? If I was to send a file to a co-worker I would have to provide them with my username and password to access the file?
Just a little confused. Any clarification or assistance is much appreciated. Thanks.
well that's how Google wants to play, nothing we can do about it...sorry dude

Ok, I asked a co-worker the above question and she said that he would also need a Google Drive account as well. That way the file/pictures will be available in his Shared With Me Folder. If he doesn't have a Google Drive account I would either have to send as an attachment, just like a regular email or provide him with access to my Google Drive account. thanks for your response.
Turns out I am the idiot. My sharing options were set to Private which require a password to log in. I have since changed it to Anyone with the Link, so no password is required.
Just thought I would share in case anyone else has the same issues as myself. Thanks.

ROTFLMFAO Awesome! Nice to know thanks. I should give this app a try. Instead of me sending MMS pics of my son to my dad.

lol glad you figure it out!

If a user needs to click "Sign in with Google+" but doesn't, please correct them

If a user needs to click "Sign in with Google+" but doesn't, please correct them
Dear site admins,
I registered on this website using the "Sign in with Google+" button.
Some weeks later, I tried to log in again. I tried using an ordinary username/password pair. This was a mistake, and I kept getting the "You have entered an invalid username or password" error message.
It turns out that I should have been using the "Sign in with Google+" button instead of the ordinary login system.
When the user should be using "Sign in with Google+", and they try to log in using an ordinary username/password pair, please don't tell them "Wrong password". Instead, please tell them to use the "Sign in with Google+" button instead.
Cheers!
P.S. Thank you very much for keeping the site running. I mostly lurk, but it's still a very useful resource.
You mean you were entering your gmail information into the regular login?

Psa cant track order or lookup order ****

Hi Everyone. It seems alot of people are having the same problems I had. You can not look up your order. Using quick order lookup with Order number and passord says invalid order or password. Order Lookup with Order number says EMAIL_MISSING on digital river website. OR other order lookup on htc.com says enter a valid email address when you are entering a valid email address.
Also Trying the forget password says invalid email address so you cant even reset your password. Here is what I did. I contacted htc through a message here(not chat, they cant do anything really)
https://store.digitalriver.com/DRHM...=htcus&Locale=en_US&ThemeID=38736100&Env=BASE
What you need to tell them is you need you password reset because you can not look up your order because it doesnt think your email is valid or the password is right. You get all the above errors. Give them your order ID and Email address you used or got your order confirmation to. Keep riding them till they send you a email with a password reset link. Once you get it ( i got mine after a day asking twice) reset it. Make your new password.
Go back to login here
https://store.digitalriver.com/DRHM...=htcus&Locale=en_US&ThemeID=38736100&Env=BASE
Once you login for me atleast I looked under order history nothing showed. but go to the order lookup that asks for your order number and password and it should show you your order.
Hope this helps. It drove me to almost cancel my preorder.
I'm having this problem as well now. And I'd honestly rather just wait for a shipping email/confirmation than drive myself nuts w/ customer service reps. It's crazy that all this is necessary

Yeah it is crazy. Its like when you place your order it takes your email for updates but its never stored in to look up your order or to make and account like it says. It should be sending out a new unique password after you order but it doesnt.
Even when trying to reset password on that digital river link
Keeps saying invalid email.
So I'll have to contact HTC like you said, hopefully it gets working soon.
Already posted this in shipping thread but I'll describe what I did again here hoping it helps more people
go to this page:
https://store.digitalriver.com/DRHM...=htcus&Locale=en_US&ThemeID=38736100&Env=BASE
click forgot order password
In the popup if you scroll down there should be a prompt for just an order number, click submit and it should send a password reset URL to the email used when ordering. Then it should prompt you to enter a new account email and password. After resetting it took 20-30 min for it to actually let me log in.

In the UK I am able to use this address, type in my order number and password and it looks up my order. I cant do anything else at all. Here is the site I use: https://shop.eu.htc.com/store?Action=help&Env=BASE&Locale=en_GB&SiteID=htcemea

Edit: oops, wrong thread, but thanks for the info
When you look up the order, use internet explorer instead of chrome, I had this same issue and I know IE sux but it will let you see the order status. In chrome I get the invalid password or order number error but not in IE. Actually you can even look up the order status on your phone. In the Google Search, just type HTC order lookup, go to the site, put in your number and password and boom!

Trying to delete long unused account but can't remember details

I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong place. I have tried using the webmaster contact form but the message never goes through and throws up an error message.
When I try to change the email address on the account I am posting this from, I am told that another account is already using that email. I suppose I set up an account some time ago that I never used and I don't even remember what user name I used so I can't use the delete account web form.
Since I can't seem to solve this using the standard web based forms what should I do? Thanks.
Hi,
This thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1976627
... would have been more appropriate but no worries, we will help you here now.
You should send a PM to MikeChannon with your details, I am sure he will help you privately.
Thanks!
