Thanks for your response Troglodactyl,

If I am not able to remember my password is there a way to get it back with just the Json backup?

There is no way to recover without the password unless you had exported your private keys. Just keep trying. I once thought for sure I knew a password and it was days until I finally got it. Create a text file of your attempts and iterations so you're not trying the same one multiple times. Trust me - it helps.

There is no limit to the number of login attempts allowed.

The backup from 0.9.1 should be fine on 0.9.3c.  Just be careful and make sure you keep your backups safe while figuring things out.

Update us if you run into any more specific issues, and I hope it works out.

I had downloaded Bitshares 0.9.1 back in July. I synced it and it was up to date.

I do have a json backup of my wallet from Frebruary 2015

I bought a new computer and am in the process of downloading  0.9.3c.

I don't remember changing the password on my current wallet, when I try to login with my normal password it is not letting me in.

Is there a way to recover my account with the February json file that I have after installing Bishares 0.9.3c on my new computer?

Is there a limit to the password login attemps one can use?

Thank you,

EDIT: I did find a json backup prior to installing 0.9.1 in July 10th 2015
