Remove Authenticator
Hi, does anyone know how to get an authenticator removed from your account if you also don't know the password? Last time i played was 2018 it looks like and i wanted to see the new changes and play the game again. Once i tried to login i remembered i had a physical authenticator i got with the collectors edition and have no idea where it may be. I did some searching and ended up empty handed. Its been like 7 years and i lost the authenticator, The problem now is its been 7 years and i also have no idea what the password is either. All of the help info says to try and sign in and once it fails you should see a link says 'i dont have my authenticator' or something like that. Unfortunately that must assume you know the password because if you dont it does not display a new page you just get a red banner that says login failed. So i tried to change my password. Using the link at the bottom of the sign in page 'i dont remember my password'. I got a reset password email sent to me like i should, but I am unable to use the reset password function because it also requires your authenticator to change the password. I get a red banner error 'account security key, display name, or recovery coded is invalid/expired' On the reset password email it dose say 'Remember, if you have a linked EA account, it will be reset with the new password.' So i figured if they are linked it may work the other direction so i changed my EA account password. That did not work using my new EA account password i got the same errors. I even tried to wait a day so see if it just took some time but i got the same results. Using EA help i went through all of this with them and tried the same steps using links they gave me and got the same results. They then told me 'after checking the information is not possible to locate the right account or any useful information' and to ask in this forum to see if anyone had some ideas. I know the display name of the SWTOR account and the attached email address but that's about it. If the account is linked to my EA account I am not sure why they would not be able to locate it. Also on my EA account i can see all of the charges for the subscription and cartel coins going back to 01-21-2012. Also because i was stupid and did not think how it would be used my SWTOR display name is my legal name with my middle initial. I would prefer to not to abandon my old account so any help is appreciated.Solvedrj35267b11 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer282Views2likes6Commentssecurity key in SW:TOR
It’s been a while since I last logged into my SW:TOR account. Now, I can no longer remember my password or my security key. I downloaded Google Authenticator, but I can’t figure out how it works. Could someone please help me? I’ve already tried the "forgot password" option, but it’s asking for my security key again. Bonjour à tous, Cela fait un moment que je ne me suis pas connectée sur mon compter SW:TOR. Aujourd'hui, je ne me souviens plus de mon MDP ni de ma clé de sécurité. J'ai téléchargé GOOGLE AUTHENTIFICOR mais impossible de comprendre son fonctionnement. Est-ce que quelqu'un pourrait m'aider sachant que j'ai déjà essayé "mot de passe oublié" et encore une fois on me demande ma clé de sécurité. Merci à vous.AudeyD16 hours agoNewcomer25Views0likes1CommentLogin issues.... again.
Hello, I am trying to return to SWTOR after a long hiatus. I am able to log into the website just fine, but even after removing the security key, every time i try to launch the game, on either of my accounts, I get either "Login service is unavailable" error OR "The Display Name, Password, or Security Key you have entered is incorrect". I know for a fact that the display name and password are correct, because I am using it to log into the SWTOR website and can access my account just fine. Any suggestions?EQAlagrianna1 day agoRising Newcomer69Views0likes3CommentsProblems with standalone launcher and game itself, nothing loads
Hello! Since late Monday and early Tuesday I cannot log into the game since my launcher keeps closing on itself after 2 seconds of searching for updates. So far I've tried: turning off security software and adding SWTOR folder and all related .exe to exception folder, restarting the PC hundreds of times, installing DirectX 9 and other old libraries Redist recommended by other players. I do not use AdGuard, so the problem doesn't lie there either. By some miracle I've got the launcher to stick around for a whole game reinstall, but it did nothing too. All my drivers are up to date. On the SWTOR forums one person recommended to overwrite launcher.exe and launcher.swtor.json with updated files from Temp folder, which actually helped the launcher to stop closing. Now I can login, but the game itself doesn't launch, as nothing happens when I hit play button. Windows crash report says this: Star Wars - The Old Republic Launcher has stopped working Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: launcher.exe_Star Wars - The Old Republic Launcher Application Version: 7.2.207.0 Application Timestamp: 0x6ac2ac1b Fault Module Name: AcLayers.DLL Fault Module Version: 10.0.18362.449 Fault Module Timestamp: 0xd5a88fae Exception Code: 0xc0000005 Exception Offset: 0x000219a0 The same problem has happened to another friend of mine around the same time and no fix works for them as well. Please help as I cannot play the game for almost a week now.boingus_bingus672 days agoSeasoned Newcomer82Views0likes2CommentsOne time password required
I never recieve the mail, I have been trying for a few days to get back in after getting a new PC. And after the oompteenth time I realize that something must be wrong... How do I get in contact with support over this?Melukien6 days agoSeasoned Newcomer186Views1like8CommentsEA Linking Inscrutability
How do, Seen a bit of this online hereabouts but my experience may be different enough to make this why it's not working out for me. Been away for ages, thought I'd pop back in for a look since there's finally a Mac client. Better late than never, eh? But there's trouble as soon as I try to resubscribe. My account for SWTOR and EA share the same addy. Recently logged into both, all work. But there's no indication that my SWTOR knows about EA and vice versa. To quote someone well known in these here parts, would it help if I got out and pushed? The pathway to resolving this is a bit opaque. All I'm trying to do is pay for a sub. It's hard to figure why when both match, this false positive is pointed at as to why. Support that requires a paid sub - which can't be reactivated for unknowable reasons - a bit of a catch 22. Anyone here that can shed useful light that helps me resolve things, many thanks.69Views1like6CommentsTrouble subscribing
I'm returning to the game after a long break. I'm trying to subscribe again, but the website keeps saying it can't verify my card info. I have triple checked my entry, so I know it's correct. I have tried regular debit card, cashapp card, and paypal, all with the same result. I called the bank, and they said there is no issue that would prevent an online bill pay, so what gives?GarrusVakarian127 days agoSeasoned Newcomer65Views0likes5CommentsMy launcher doesnt work since tuesday
Hello i play swtor since many years and everything was good but since tuesday my launcher is suddenly doesnt work, when I launch the launcher it loads for 10 seconds and then closes on its own, displaying the message "restarting"—but it never actually restarts. i’ve tried several things to fix the issue based on information I found online, but nothing has helped. I even deleted the game to try and reinstall it, but now I can’t even download it because the launcher keeps closing on its own. i don’t know what else to do to get it working again; do you have any solutions? thanks. 😭137Views1like7CommentsC7 error
I don't understand why after playing so many months since my return and in fact in previous years i had no issue with this garbage that I'm suddenly getting this error. I already did a fresh install in case and i still get it. it's odd that it's happening on a tuesday(reset day). Coincidence? Anyways i'm frustrated by this big time.gilgalahad13139 days agoNew Rookie111Views0likes7Commentsmultiple account issues

I don't play the game in years, but I tried to log in and it says it can't recognize my device (for obvious reasons) but I never get the one time password sent by email. The email account is working fine. Plus I live in Brazil, it's really expensive to call to their physical number. :(psylotwin11 days agoSeasoned Newcomer174Views1like7CommentsCan't connect to any server

So after a couple of years of not playing the game, I wanted to get back only to find out that... That I forgot my password. So I tried to reset it, but here is where the real problem showed up... I need my security access code to reset the password, but the SW app is not working on my phone, so I have no idea how to set a new password. I cannot contact support through the game because I can't get inside the game.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to return to SWTOR after a long break, but I can't log in because the game asks me to verify my age. When I try to verify my age, I receive this error message: "There is an issue with your EA account that is preventing your request from completing." My EA account was apparently created automatically when I started playing SWTOR, long before 2019. When I check the account connection, it shows: "Link Status: Error." I've already tried changing my password, but that didn't solve the problem. I'm not sure whether I changed the password for the correct EA account, and I don't know how to find out which email address was originally linked to my SWTOR account. EA support has directed me to call +1 (855) 345-2186, but I live in Brazil and cannot call this US toll-free number. I haven't been able to find another way to contact customer support. Does anyone know how I can resolve this account linking error, identify the EA account linked to my SWTOR account, or contact support from Brazil? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
