Hello!

I went into the files using my account key and noticed that the account and user id did not match. I swapped them, anytime I saw just the user or account section in the sched reply/request files, and on the account file, but I still have no updates on my profile on any of the work my computer has done.

Everything works great and updates well for Science United, but not for this website. What do I do?

Thank you for any help.

You need to do everything through Science United as all the work you do counts against your Science United account. Attaching directly to a Project (such as here) creates an entirely different account, and you will download work for that particular project (in addition to any Science United has downloaded). But each will be counted separately.

From the Science United web site.

If you use Science United, you won't be able to see your BOINC credit totals on project web sites, or on sites like BOINCStats.

One of the reasons i consider it to be a waste of time. The other being you can't set preferences for which projects are more important than others (if that is the case) and give them preference for doing work.



I would suggest dropping Science United, and just attaching to the projects you want to do. If you want to use it, then detach from this (and any other) project that you have attached to and, only use Science United.
