Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) are available on the following topics:
Registration:
Q. I am unable to register because Systems shows error in "Username" or "E-mail" though I am entering correct email. What to do?
A. The "Username" or "E-mail" error is seen when they already exist in the system. Either used by others or you yourself registered or tried to register using them. The solution is that you try to login using your username and password which you tried at the time of registration. Hopefully you will get through. If you forgot password then ask the system for your password. It will send to you on your registed email. If you did not get email at all (neither in junk email box) that means your email does not exists in sytem. Problem is in username. Use different Username or ask the system for a suggestion for username. Alternatively try with a new username and email for registration.

A. a) Please check your junk mail folder (Spam). It may be landing there.
