    To reactivate your account: If it has been less that 3 months (90 days) since you deleted it, sign in as normal with the address and password then click on "I can't access my account". Fill in the form and submit with the details when you first opened your account, or when you last edited the details. You will need your birth date, country and zip or postal code, and the answers to your secret questions AND and an alternate e-mail! After more than 3 months, the account is permanently closed. You can apply for the same name again, but the folders will all be empty of information. Other people may also apply for the same 'new' account name too, so it might be taken if you re-apply for that user name.

    if you put an alternate e-mail in when you signed up, just go there and ask for another password to get you back in.

    you can also try requesting the administration, but be ready with your old password and the security question info so you can verify that it is actually you...

    good luck.
