I've been recetly trying to change my password back to my original password, I changed it but now I want it the former back, but whenever I try it says:

The following errors occurred:
- Supply a new e-mail address to use
- Invalid password.

I changed my e-mail and still I can't change it. What should I do?

I go to this link ----> http://myanimelist.net/password.php
but I don't want them to give me a new password. I want to create a new one myself. Is there anyway to do that? I've been searching and I haven't found anything.

If you go here then you can change your password(but of course you have to know your old one). Or is it that you don't remember your password? Because then you would have a new one sent to you, then you can change it using that link I gave you.

Same here, but you can't change it there:


"An e-mail will be sent to you shortly with your username and new password."


Did anyone found a way, because I can't find it either.

I already put the link in my post where you go to change your password. It works, I've changed my password through there multiple times.

You're probably hitting enter instead of actually clicking 'Change Password', right?
Try actually clicking.

All these are shitty. I am trying to change my password but I can't unless I change my username as well. That's garbage!

I'm having the same problem. When I try to change to a new password, it says that I have to choose a new username too. There must be another way!

Leave the Username field blank or write your Username exactly.

Click on Submit, don't hit Enter.

I was leaving the username as it appeared, all in lowercase.

If you went though the password reset steps, the "current password" is the one you got in the e-mail.
