Changing Account Information

Question

How do I change the information on my account, such as my email address or password?

Answer

Changes to your account information must be made in your TypeKey Profile. Log into your TypeKey account and make your changes there; then, the next time you log into Your Account, you must say YES to "Share your email address?" so that it will update your account with us.

You can change your email address, password, and public name, but your username cannot be changed.

Note that if you change your email address, you will need to confirm the change by clicking the link in the confirmation email sent to the new address. The change will not take effect until it has been confirmed.

Important: Make sure you have completed the information in the Password Recovery section of your TypeKey Profile, so that you can recover your password if you forget it.
