Can not login in cursor

Describe the Bug

“Authentication blocked, please contact your admin”

On a new ubuntu system.
Cannot login in cursor website, in chrome.
Also Cursor IDE can’t be used, it need web login.

A pro account.

Steps to Reproduce

Login the website

Screenshots / Screen Recordings

Operating System

Linux

Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

Cursor-1.1.7-x86_64.AppImage

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Try to login with some other account.

Oh didn’t saw you have a pro account, but changing the account solved this problem for me.

How to change the account without login? I read other post find mail to the [email protected]( from the contact support) , is there another way?

You need to go to the cursor.com and login with the new account, once you logged in then you have to go to the cursor app. click log in , it will route you to the web and then click Yes log in. Your new account will be logged in to the cursor

Problem solved, thanks!

I misunderstood that there was a way to change the account email.
The support team resolved the issue.
Thanks for your help anyway!
