Caution

Don't accept any messages from your Password Manager asking to re-save your password. Password Manager will try to use your passphrase instead of your password when you next log into New Landonline.

If you don't have pop-ups enabled in your browser, you won't get the Authentication request pop-up. Find advice on enabling pop-ups depending on the browser you use:

Step 5. Wait for signing

Once you've entered your password the Signing in progress message will appear. Signing can take a while depending on how many titles, instruments or instruments with attachments there are.
