Hello, i have been published my website for my art around march of this year and i was able to upload and change my images for my items in my shop.

Hi @DanitaS!
I've reviewed your case, and it looks like someone from our Support Team replied to your email yesterday — so you may have already seen that response by now.
In the meantime, I’ll make sure your account is set up to be directed to our Phone Support Team when our lines reopen tomorrow at 6 AM Pacific Time. This way, if you call from the number associated with your Square account, you should be routed straight to their team, who can assist you in real time.
As for troubleshooting, since this is showing as an "Unknown error" rather than a "Wrong password" message, we’ll want to try a few different access steps. You mentioned clearing your cache and trying another browser, which is great, but could you also try logging in using an Incognito window?
We often find that "unknown errors" like this are caused by blocked cookies in your browser or device settings. When cookies are blocked, it can prevent you from completing certain actions, such as logging in or resetting your password.
To check this, we recommend reviewing your Privacy and Security settings to see if your browser may be blocking cookies, which can prevent certain actions from working as expected.
If the issue continues, feel free to either call our Support Team when phone lines reopen tomorrow at 1-855-700-6000, or reply to the email we sent over the weekend. Our team will be happy to assist you further from there.

I am having this same issue. I've reset my password, cleared cache, etc. with no luck. I tried Chrome and can sign in fine. On Safari I cannot login at all. I tried a Private Browsing window and CAN get logged in so I'm not sure what the issue is. I also tried turning off and Safari blockers with no luck either. I guess I'm missing something? But why did this start doing this? I've logged in fine for years but now, nothing. Any help is appreciated.
UPDATE: Oddly I can log into this Community area just fine (same username and password).
