InReach Sync says too many login attempts. Try again in 24 hours.

I can login to https://inreach.garmin.com/ just fine. I make some changes there (enter some new quick text messages). Sync tab is red, so I run inReach Sync. Entered the same email and password that I used to get into inreach.garmin.com

Got error: Too many login attempts. Try again in: 24 hours. Reset password https://inreach.garmin.com

Will changing my password clear up this problem?

I had a similar issue when I got my Mini. I uninstalled, and reinstalled the InReach Sync, and was able to apply the fresh credentials. I'm not sure if its the correct procedure, but it worked for me.

There has been a certain amount of weirdness since Garmin changed it so that you can get f/w updates without having activated the device - which means without logging in. If you have saved credentials, log out from inside the sync program. Close it. Restart and log in again. If that doesn't work, try removing and re-installing as suggested above.

If you don't have saved credentials, you can try the uninstall-reinstall. Not sure what would change in the case, however.
