I input my member number and it says that I already have an account.

Church Account is the primary user account (user name and password) for accessing online Church resources. Church Account was formerly known as LDS Account. This forum is a space to discuss all things related to Church Accounts (registration, account recovery, user experience, vulnerabilities, etc.).

Use the "Forgot your username?" link to recover the account with the membership number and work from there.

Most likely you have two LDS Accounts – one of them tied to your membership record number, and the other not. Go to http://ldsaccount.lds.org/recovery and recover the account that's tied to your membership record number, by using the membership record number recovery option.

If you do not know your membership record number and you still need it to recover your account, check with your ward clerk. It will also be on your temple recommend if it was recorded correctly there.
