Silvia @silvia_cc I have 2 community usernames for my Adobe account and I can only log in to the one that has almost nothing on it. The login I can't login to has all past posts, questions etc etc, how can I fix this?

My screen name won't change. It is using my email! I have followed the link but it still won't change. You can check that I have DrEng as a screen name on my edit profile but my email still shows instead!
