Default [Q] Amazon app store not signing me in

I just got my note yesterday and its great, I first installed Amazon appstore (I just googled it and downloaded it) it installed fine but tells me my email or password is incorrect. I know my email is right and I changed my password like 3 times using the "forgot password" tab. Each time I received a "password changed " popup....but I still can't log in, and I can't get back my free apps of the day. Any ideas?

First try logging into your account via a PC\Mac to be sure of your user name and password. (Not trying to say you don't know what they are but this way it removes any question.) Go to phone and in Manage Apps clear the cache for Amazon Appstore. Try to log in now that you are sure of your credentials.
Please use search before posting your question.
Be kind to the devs! Without them, XDA is just a bunch of jerks bickering.

dont know if this will help at all but i have two diff emails i guess set up two diff accounts , any how i have to go back and forth betwean the two accounts some times one will let me buy apps some times the other will let me buy apps

when you in the adroid market , go to setting and it say manage accounts . then if you have two diff accounts switch between them and see if that helps ,,


i may be way off or may not even know what im talking about but i try

good luck

I just don't get it. I've tried all 3 of my emails address, 2 of which are yahoo accounts. The only one that worked was my second yahoo account but its not fully set up...if I try and download today's free app it brings me to a page to finish registration (credit card info etc) the email address It should be allows me to log into the regular Amazon website (even from phones browser) but it doesnt work for Amazon appstore. I've cleared data, deleted and reinstalled, reset password several time...i just had a thought as I was typing this, since the note didn't come with a sdcard I used one of my 2 16 GB cards one is from my infuse (the last phone I used with Amazon) and an other 16 from a different phone. I know that the one that's in my note isn't the one from my last phone (with working Amazon) I wonder if I swap cards if it'll work?
