Have an old acct that I want to activate. I know the acct name and the email, but can't remember the password.

What would be my next step in trying to retrieve the password or resetting it?

Thanks!

Do you have access to the email to receive a reset password message? If so, this is what I've been doing as all my inactive UO accounts have had to have their master passwords set anyway.

First, make sure you are logged out of the Origin Store.

Next, go to accounts.eamythic.com and click the Forgot you EA Account Password. It will take you to a new page asking you to login again. Instead of logging in, click the Forgot Your Password link. It will then ask you to enter the email address which you do. You should get a reset email link in your email. You can click that to reset the password, then go back to account.eamythic.com and login using your email address. You should have access to all UO accounts affiliated with that address and can reset those UO passwords from there.

This didn't work. This wants to change my EA acct password and not my uo game acct password.

Log into UO account management using your master account email and password. Select the UO account from the drop-down. Then toward the bottom I think there is a change password option.

I'm not gonna jump through hoops just to reactivate an old acct for awhile. I'll keep my $ instead.

Thanks for those that did try to help. :)

If you can login to your EA master account, it's the easiest thing in the world to change your UO password. Seriously, EA deserves a lot of criticism but this is so easy. It's a matter of type password, retype password. How many hoops is that?
