If you cannot remember the old Forum password you could request a new password 
through the password forgot url:

Hope that helps,

Re: 4D Forums no longer accessible -- too many redirects

[Jeffrey Kain via 4D_Tech]

Hey Tim --

> forums.4d.com is the new way.

This also gives me the "too many redirects" error in Safari.

> Here is a direct link to login page referenced in the banner, please try 
> using this to start the migration process:
> https://account.4d.com/4DACTION/webAccount_Login?country=US=http://forums.4d.com/MyHome/EN/

Same thing in Safari - after entering my store ID and password I get the 
redirects error.

So, I tried forums.4d.com in Firefox and it worked and I was able to migrate my 
account. I can use it normally in Firefox. After the migration, I still get 
that redirects error in Safari even when navigating to forums.4d.com.

HTH,

Jeff

RE: 4D Forums no longer accessible -- too many redirects

[Timothy Penner via 4D_Tech]

Hi Jeff,

> Is there a new way to access forums.4d.fr?

forums.4d.com is the new way.

Forums.4d.fr should automatically redirect to forums.4d.com, but maybe that is 
the issue... can you try forums.4d.com instead of .fr ?

If the page loads then you should the following text at the top (unless you are 
already logged in with the global login system):


New! 4D forum is now using SSO, the same as other 4D websites (Taow, 
livedoc,..). A user authenticated through one of the 4D portals will then 
automatically be connected on forums.4D.com.

We strongly encourage existing forum users to use the "Sign in" link to start 
their account migration.

Please note that the previous forum authentication will only be available until 
September, 15th.

New forum users need to create a 4D account and use the “sign in” link on 
forums.4D.com


Here is a direct link to login page referenced in the banner, please try using 
this to start the migration process:
https://account.4d.com/4DACTION/webAccount_Login?country=US=http://forums.4d.com/MyHome/EN/

What may help with the process is to -
1) sign out of both the forums and account.4d.com
2) while signed out, go to forums.4d.com and click the sign in link that takes 
you here: 
https://account.4d.com/4DACTION/webAccount_Login?country=US=http://forums.4d.com/MyHome/EN/
3) Sign in with your normal 4D store account
4) you will redirected back to forums and be presented a migration page with 
the option of linking to an existing forums account
5) if you have an existing 4D forums account, type in the login credentials on 
the migration page to link the old forums account with the global login system

Kind Regards,

Tim PENNER

Re: 4D Forums no longer accessible -- too many redirects

[Keith Culotta via 4D_Tech]

In Safari: removed all "4D" website data (cookies).  After that the site came 
up and I was able to log in with the old saved username and password.  

I signed back out, went to the site, and clicked the "Sign In" button near the 
top right.  The next window was a migration window.  After the migration I'm 
auto-logged in with my partner credentials.

Are you on an iPad? That's what it's always done for me on an iPad...I
thought the Forums just weren't supported on the iPad for some reason.
Never asked.

I think I tried that yesterday, and then also ended up with redirect errors.

What URL did you use to get in for the migration?  I'm using forums.4d.fr

Re: 4D Forums no longer accessible -- too many redirects

[Kirk Brooks via 4D_Tech]

I was just able to get in and 'migrate' my account by following a link to
an old post which took me in without trying to login. Then I read the
banner and took the suggestion to click the LogIn link which redirected me
to the Partner Login screen. After that I was redirected to a simple little
form that let me enter my old user name and password.

You might try with a browser you don't use often to avoid any auto-sign on
stuff that might be getting in the way.
