Oh, I just went through something similar and know the frustration! I tried to create a new login and password at a bank site last week. Nowhere did it say that I could not start with a number! But when I started with a letter, it finally accepted it. If there are rules listed, make sure you read and follow the rules for letters, capital letters, special characters, length, etc. Some sites won't take a ~ or a ^ and some do. Try switching things up a little, but keep the basic more secure password that you have. You may need to take notes. It took me 8-9 tries last week. Shred them when done! I have two-step authentication with my Adobe ID now. Every time I sign in, they send a six-digit text message. Hope this helps
