    FFXIV/FFXI question

    Maybe a stupid question but here it goes. So while im waiting for FFXIV to officially release to play it I was thinking about jumping back into FFXI. I have been gone for like 4 years and was wondering since I bought the CE for FFXIV and got a security token for it, is it possible to use my FFXIV security token interchangeably between FFXIV and FFXI? Also If I can't I have 2 FFXIV security tokens cause I had to buy the FFXIV CE 2 times. my other one is attached to another one of my accounts that I haven't been on since september 22 when FFXIV first came out and I don't remember any of the credentials. If I can't use the token I am currently using for FFXIV is there someway I could use the other one that i'm not currently using (I'm assuming i'd have to de-tach it from my old account which I have no idea how to log into.)

    Thank you for your time in reading, greatly appreciate any help anyone is able to provide.

    If I'm not mistaken, the token is for your SE account, and every game you have it registered to...not to a specific game.

    So yes, you should be able to use it interchangeably if you use the same SE account for both games.

    You should be able to contact SE customer service for the other stuff; getting access to that account, removing that token. They've always been able to help me...even getting access to a years-old account my mom had made for my brother so he could play XI again.

    Thx for the reply ^.^ I greatly appreciate it.

    As for calling SE and trying to get my other account back its a no go, I tried that when i came back to FFXIV 1.5 years ago. I tried for the entire day working with them but they would not cough up my info. because there was "No way to verify that you actually own the account." Which is why I had to go out and re buy another CE of the game. This was 1.5 years ago though so I was able to pick up a brand new CE of the game for only $20 XD.

    no problem, and dang I'm sorry...I don't remember how I finally convinced them. Pretty sure I had to get all of her information. Well then if you can't access the account then you probably can't remove the token...but yeah you should only need the one, unless you lose it or something.

    You just have to select what account you want to use. You should get a menu with a list of which account you want to log into.

    The authenticator you have now will work. When logging in through Playonline there's a field for one time password.
