Hi @the_milky_man,
If you get the message that your password is invalid then I'm afraid that the only thing we can do is change the password again. I suggest trying that a couple of times as it could be that you made a typo.

That's not possible since the rules ofr passwords have changed, so going back to the old passwords is 100% impossible. Does that mean i can't play my game anymore, or gotta loose all my data ? What's EA going to do about that ?
The same problem with invalid password.
How to change it in the game?
> The same problem with invalid password. How to change it in the game?
It can't be changed from within the game. This was due to a change made on the EA server back in April 2011 or earlier. It wasn't that much of an issue back then because EA hadn't change the requirements for passwords to include stuff like mixed case letters, so a player could change their EA account password to match the Shift 2 password. A few years later, EA or possibly Origin changed the password rules, without any announcement of the pending change, and now players like me that had used all lower case passwords can't change the EA account password back, so now there is no way to log in with a save that has a password that doesn't meet the new rules.
As posted earlier, the situation is now worse. If you start over with a new save, and log in, you no longer get Limited Edition content, even though you paid for that content. The loss of Limited Edition content and promotional content like the Dr Pepper Camaro occurred around March 2018. It's been about a year since this problem was reported and it is still not fixed.
But in 2021,we can't change our origin password to an old password...then how can we do it?
As posted elsewhere, the servers will shut down August or September, 2021. You don't need to log in to use your saves for offline play, but if you want to start over with a new career, any additional content like the Limited Edition (which includes the fastest car the LP640), or the Dr Pepper Camaro promotional car, will be lost, due to a change made to the servers a few years ago, that no longer send out unlock messages for content that players paid for. There are modded files that you can download to access all the content, but you'll be buying the extra content cars with in game cash, unlike the additional content cars, which were free. In game cash isn't too difficult to earn, so it's not that big a deal, but saves made with modded files won't work with the original files.
okay.......thx bro🙂
