    Looks like the email addresses differ by an initial.

    You need to set login.ubuntu.com to match the account on the forum, as the preferred address - which is the one with the extra letter in the e-mail address

    I will disassociate you here, change login.ubuntu.com and then log back in here and you should go to the original account.

    The email in the mJayk account has the extra letter.

    I've disasssociated mattjcliffe again. Make sure the email in your Ubuntu One account is the one with the extra letter and you should be OK when you next login.
