I suddenly can't log into Daz 3D or Daz Installation manager. It says Unable to log into the specified account (or server did not accept username/password, when trying Daz Studio). Check password....
I tried doing a password reset and can log into the web site but just not the apps.

Is anyone else having trouble with DIM? I haven't changed my email or password, yet it says "Unable to login to the specified account. Verify the email and/or password and try again." I tried rebooting my computer, and that didn't help. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Yup. It broke :(
It worked just now for me.
ETA: I'm on windows 10.
Still not working for me yet.
Also not working yet for me.
Here's the thread I started earlier today: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/584786/dim-won-t-accept-my-login-anyone-else-seeing-this-maybe-it-is-just-me#latest
I've also tested DIM on 3 different Macs with the same result - unable to login.
I also submitted a Support Ticket before starting the thread. Others might want to submit a ticket as well. Just in case it helps DAZ identify what's going on. :)

Stil broken on my mac - but works on my Windows machine. Not sure what that means.
I've just noted in my thread on this issue that logging in with DAZ Studio doesn't work either (on my 3 Macs.)

Used it today, no problems, win10
Received a response from Support a few minutes ago. Waiting to see if what they're trying to do will work (I am a bit skeptical about it, but you never know!)
Lee
Thanks for the update :)
Will keep my fingers crossed they can sort it.
I can now login via DAZ Studio, but DIM is still not accepting my login. Support is also skeptical of their first attempt after reading more details that I provided.
We're making some progress. Maybe? :)
*EDIT* Just finished trying what both Support and I were unsure would work. It didn't.

I'm on a mac, too, and it's still not working. I guess I'd better start a support ticket.
Thank you, Fae3D! I hope Support gets enough info to fix this soon. I let them know it seemed to be a Mac specific issue.
Lee
No problem, I'm hoping that if enough of us file a ticket, this will be worked on quickly.
We've made Daz aware of the issue but continue to submit tickets sos they can get all the details that can help narrow the problem down
OK, I will submit a ticket also, just incase I can help supply more info.
Did anyone happen to do the "macOS Monterey 12.5.1" update?
Not me - still on 12.4
Daz just let us know that it is probably due to a yearly maintenance they need to do for Macs that is causing it and depending on when it started it could be up to 12 hours being down.
I just posted a ticket for my mac
Thanks for the info, frank0314! During my discussions with Support, I mentioned that it seemed to be a DAZ backend/server issue. I'm on different versions of macOS across 3 Macs, none of which are Monterey 12.5.1 - one is Monterey 12.5, the other 2 are Big Sur (per your earlier query.)
Looking forward to this sorting itself out by tomorrow (we hope!!)
Thanks again!

DIM is not allowing me to log in on my MAC either. I'm still using Catalina 10.15.7, so it isn't because I updated the MAC software. I ALSO noticed that there is content missing in my content pane. Content that I used just 2 days ago is gone, and without DIM, I can't redownload it.
Couldn't you download it from your Product Library and install it manually?
I am just now reading this thread. Yesterday on my MacBookPro, with Monterey 12.5, I was able to log into DIM and download without issues.
But as I checked to see what version I had on my system, I just saw an update was available, Monterey12.5.1. Is it safe to install or should I hold off?

As we understand it the issue was daz side, a periodic maintenance action that affects only Macs. The MacOS update was, I beleive, a red herring.
Ah, thank you Richard. I will go ahead and do the update. I have taken the two external harddrives with D|S and my DIM files offline, just in case.
I must have done my DIM work yesterday before the folks at Daz started their maintenance. I was able to finish up a project of reinstalling and redownloading zip files that were mucked up with crashes before on the old external. Don't want to damage the fixed up database now.
After posting my message, I now see this thread. Typical of my luck. I'm on an old iMac (2010) and haven't updated macOS in quite some time and have the same log-in issue.
UPDATE - Still ongoing AFAIK
Current location - U.K. Time 3.30pm GMT. Thu 18th August 2022
Still unable to log in with DIM v.1.4.0.80 - I just updated this in case it was a bug in the earlier version.
Same message as everyone else has been getting, so resorted to manual D/L and install until ths gets fixed.
iMac (Retina 5K, 27" Mid 2015), 3.3GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5, 32GB 1600 MHz DDR3 - running OSX 10.15.7 Catalina.
same here. Location: South Germany, 2022-08-18-17:30-GMT+2
various iMacs, various macOS versions, same result. Opened a ticket with support.
It's been about 21 to 22 hours since I opened a support ticket on this. My support representative has been quite nice and had me try something that neither of us was sure would work (it didn't.). I've just finished replying to his message from this morning and let him know about the DAZ side maintenance for Macs. I think we're just stuck waiting for now.
