Using an Account Registered with an Apple ID / Google Account on Other Platforms (Setting a Password)

If you signed up with an Apple ID / Google account, no Handbook X password has been set yet (a random password is generated internally, but since the user never uses it, it is not disclosed to the user).

On platforms that do not support Apple ID / Google account login, such as the Windows app, you must log in with your account name (email address) and a password. In that case, set a password using the following steps.

Note: The Windows app currently does not support Apple ID / Google account login.

1. Log in to the Web UI with your Apple ID / Google account and check your Account Name on the profile screen (see 9.1 Profile Information)
2. Log out of the Web UI and click the "Forgot your password?" link on the login screen
3. Enter the account name (email address) you confirmed in step 1 and send the password reset email
4. Click the link in the email you receive and set a new password
5. From then on, you can log in to any platform, including the Windows app, with your account name and the password you set

Note (if you used Apple's "Hide My Email"): If you selected "Hide My Email" when signing up with your Apple ID, your account name is not your real email address but an Apple alias email (private relay address) such as xxyyzz1122@privaterelay.appleid.com. The procedure is the same in this case: check the alias email account name on the profile screen and send the password reset email to that alias address (emails sent to the alias are forwarded to your real email address via Apple). After setting the password, log in with the combination of the alias email and the password.

2.4 Forgot Your Password

The procedure for resetting your password depends on your environment.

In the cloud version, you can receive a password reset email at your account email address.

5. A password reset email will be sent to the entered email address

Note: Password reset links have an expiration period. If expired, please request a password reset again.

Dedicated Server Version

For the dedicated server version, the procedure depends on the type of account name used.

If Your Account Name is Not an Email Address

If your account name is not in email address format, you cannot receive the password reset email. In this case, you need to contact your organization's administrator to have your password reset.
