I changed my yahoo password
I then changed the Master Login in PGO
Some groups dl - others throw out an   ERROR-INVALID PAGE FORMAT

Hi Manfred,

  You'll need to change the password for each group. The Master Login is the default password that PG Offline picks up when you add a new group.

You may ask, why not make Master Login the password for all groups?  Because you might have more than one Yahoo account & password. If you want old groups to use the new password you will need to right click on each group, choose Group Settings--> Group Logon and change the password in that dialogue.

Cheers,

Wilson.

Thanks Wilson -

But that does not explain why some groups did DL and others did not.
Given a set of groups under a specific login - I changed my password on yahoo - one would think that none of the groups would be accessible via PGO until the local password was changed within PGO

However as I said - some groups continued to function normally - while others did not.

Hi Manfred,

Thats because some groups are public and some are private.

The public groups will continue to download even if your logon details are incorrect.

Cheers,

Wilson.
