Trouble editing eReader account info (including password) in the Stanza iPhone app

I am attempting to use the new "eReader bookshelf" feature on the iPhone version of Stanza. When I entered the "eReader bookshelf" area of Stanza, I entered my eReader account information (username, password) and turned on the "Remember password" option, since I thought I had entered the right info. Unfortunately, I realized only after doing so that I had changed my eReader password a few months ago.

So what I would like to do is to re-enter my eReader password into Stanza. Unfortunately, I can find no way of doing that. Clicking on "eReader bookshelf" in Stanza simply takes me into an empty book catalog, with no obvious means of editing my eReader account info in Stanza. I've looked in the Stanza settings for some option to edit that info, but could find none there, either. I've also reset those settings to their initial default values, but still no luck in enabling me to re-enter my eReader account info in the "eReader bookshelf" area.

As a last resort, I deleted the Stanza app from my iPhone, and then synced with my computer and restarted the iPhone, just to make sure Stanza and its files were good'n'gone from the iPhone. Then I re-installed Stanza on the iPhone. Even though my original bookshelf of free books is no longer present in the application, I still do not have the option of re-entering my eReader account info! When I enter the "eReader bookshelf" area of Stanza, I still get taken to an empty catalog, and still have no option of re-entering my eReader account info.

So, does anyone have any advice about how I can edit my eReader account info in the Stanza iPhone application? Thanks for the help.

The login information is

The login information is stored in your iPhone's "keychain", which doesn't get reset when your delete an application.

We have added a new "Set Login In" menu in the "eReader Bookshelf" catalog that forces re-authentication for this problem. Thanks for letting us know about the issue, and please let us know if you continue to have any problems.

That fixes the problem.

Thanks, Marc, for the quick response— now I can edit my eReader account info in Stanza a-OK. Thanks for your work on a great piece of sotware.

I have run into the same

I have run into the same problem. I took the same steps you did above, as well as deleting cookies in Safari, without success.

I look forward to some way to resolve this.
