Unable to link itelescope account to VPHOT

I had this working 5-months ago, and just returned from a deployment to Afghanistan. All my images are gone in VPHOT, and I am now unable to link my accounts. After loging in I go to the admin section, it asks for a user name, when I enter my username it basically says that there is no such account/user name...?

Any help would be appreciated.

To maintain disk resources images older than three months are automatically deleted. So I'm afraid that's what happened to your images. That is also the reason for the error message you get when trying to link accounts, it does not work unless there are some images to transfer.

You will have to upload your old images from iTelescope manually if you want to analyse them in VPHOT.
