Thank you for your very kind comments.
Let me try to address each comment/sentence:
First, I am ***not*** trying to access LDS Tools or Gospel Library.
2 things to keep in mind (these are capital!):
1. I can get into ***both***
www.familysearch.org and
www.lds.org (using my username and password) with ***no problem*** whatsoever, ***on my computer.***
2. I am ***not*** able to get into either familysearch or lds.org from my android cell phone. But that is what I am trying to accomplish!!! I want to be able to look at my ward directory from my android, and maybe show something on familysearch to a friend.
On the cellphone, I am able to touch a "button" located to the right of the password which I enter. I ***can then read*** the password. The password ***is correct,*** and it is the ***same password*** that I use on my computer to access the sites mentioned above.
But on the android, both apps, i.e., familysearch and lds.org, say that the username or password is incorrect.
How is that possible, if they appear as correct (and allow me into those sites). . . on my computer?
My account should be the same on both my computer and my android!!!
Android does ***not*** appear to be converting a letter to uppercase or something similar.
I don't need to copy and past the password to verify that the text is correct, because I can see that it is correct when I touch the "button" located to the right of the password. (The button looks like a bolded oval, with a line running diagonally from upper left to lower right. When I tap it, I see the password! ) (Besides, I don't even know how to copy and paste on the android, only on the computer.)
Of course I can see the username on the android, which I guarantee, is correct. But the error message I receive every time is "Sign in failed. The username or password is incorrect."
