PM coming now, thanks
Please PM me.
I'm still not able to log in to my account it keeps saying my info is incorrect but I don't think it is. I still haven't heard back from my help request to the support desk and I sent it yesterday morning. Sure hope they reply sooner then later.
My password isn't being accepted. I know I'm typing it the correct way and I typed it in a text file to verify the correct output for the keys I'm pressing. I stopped with one attempt left because I don't feel like having my account locked out for a while....again today.
yeah they finally went through. It was someone paying me, so I don't know about the fees. I will check the transaction and see.
I'm having really slow confirmations this afternoon. I have 3 transactions that have been waiting for confirmations for hours.
Don't know if it is related to the blockchain.info downtime yesterday, but since they go through blockchain.info, I have to assume something is up.

Unlikely due to the downtime. Did you pay the proper fees? If not, it could take hours. If you post the TX here someone can look into it.

First thing I did when I regained access after 9 hours of downtime was to backup my keys.

This is probably a good reminder to backup those private keys.
The issue for me was that I had nowhere that I could check the coins available at a given address. Private keys were backed up, but if I had been expecting to receive coins from someone, I would have had to wait hours to verify that it was in the block chain. I guess it's just bad luck that my client and the only two public websites I was aware of weren't functional for me.

Yeah. I might have over reacted. But out of an odd coincidence, my bitcoin-qt program wasn't working (and still isn't, despite a reinstall). It was kind of annoying not being able to check a balance anywhere.
I saw the other threads about trouble synchronizing the blockchain, and for a sec worried that the SHTF. Thank *GOD* its back up.

It's back online, thankfully it wasn't a longer blackout.
seriously hope so.
Status on home page says: "Not Connected"
Try to login - click on Open Wallet and get the message "You must enter a Two Factor Authentication code".
Then spinning wheel next to "VALIDATING AUTHENTICATION KEY"
Also no text boxes come up for putting in 2nd authentication key.
This is likely happening because the blockchain site not connecting. Is this going to be fixed soon?

My blockchain.info is also stuck on CHANGING WALLET IDENTIFIER
Anyone seen or heard anything from piuk?
Very Frustrating indeed! 
I looked at that but the problem is the balance shows up even with zero confirmations (so it's not a "confirmed" balance)
http://blockexplorer.com/q/addressbalance/1Cvvr8AsCfbbVQ2xoWiFD1Gb2VRbGsEf28/6
See the manual at http://blockexplorer.com/q
That doesn't seem to work, for example:
http://blockexplorer.com/q/addressbalance/1Luo5XyHWJKG4nZ2nAT3GyZUV67CHYvNrw/50
That transaction only has 17 confirmations, but it still shows a balance when entering any confirmation number (50,100,1000, etc...)
Its stuck on the "CHANGING WALLET IDENTIFIER "... though I dont know why it would be changing anything o.0
It's been down for at least 2 hours for me.
down for me as well

You can tell its not working as the last transaction showing is over an hour and a half old.
I was having a problem too and since i keep tried refreshing they said they blocked my IP temporarily for too many requests

Maybe use one as a fallback for the other.

Thanks. Direct requests go through almost instantly indeed.
blockexplorer is timing iut in search requests as well now
That pretty much always happens. The other pages work, though.
Anyone know if any alternatives to blockchain.info.
I use their address balance lookup API to verify if payments have been sent, for example:
http://blockchain.info/q/addressbalance/XXXXXXXXXXXX?confirmations=6
But lately their server seems to be down a lot.
I just need to be able to lookup the confirmed balance of any given address.

blockexplorer.com seems to be working AFAICT.
I get : ERROR: unknown (Most likely my bitcoind stopped working or this page is too large/complex.)when I try to search for a transection/ bitcoinaddress

blockchain.info is down for me, too

Error I get from blockchain.info:
At least other people are having issues also. I don't know if that's normal or not.
I'm more worried about my bitcoin-qt wallet not syncing and giving the "Warning: Displayed transactions may not be correct! You may need to upgrade, or other nodes may need to upgrade." I suppose I could still send a transaction, I just don't have a way to verify it.

Yeah there's issues with BC.info alright, been trying to access my web wallet for a while now...
Not working for me as well.
Anyone else having issues with looking up transactions or addresses on the blockchain? I can't seem to do it from anywhere, and my Bitcoin-qt platform seems to think I need to upgrade even though I'm running the latest version. I'm a little nervous because I wanted to send a transaction, and I can't even double check that I have the BTC in the right address. Normally I could at least do that.
