    It's the same.
    Factory mode; SP5-846-046
    Reboot. Re-enter the default (or preferred) admin and supervisor passwords. Reboot. Log in as admin to turn off authentications.

          although it's been posted here on different occasions, a public forum is no place for that information.

                Can't send it.
                It says you have exceeded your quota on PM's and have to delete some messages to make space for more.

                Send me a PM when you have done so and I'll try again

                    Well that doesn't seem right, but I don't know what you mean about "notifications".
                    You should just go to your inbox, and select "messages" , then scroll down and at the bottom there is a drop down menu to download/ delete, etc. -at least there is on mine. I just deleted some really old ones myself.

                      It says my inbox has 0 messages....Only Notifications are overloaded....then it asks if I want to empty folder and I say yes...but nothing happens...hmmm

                        A few users have also had this issue, this needs to be dealt with via the site admin aneurysm.
