Invalid Email Format - Catalina OS
Everytime I try to log into the LogMeIn Control Panel to add a MacBook Pro to LogMeIn, it changes the structure of my email, preventing me from logging in.For example, I enter the administrator's email filahelp1@filahelp.com and password. After I hit Log In, it doesn't let me in and displays a different address filahelp1%40filahelp.com, hince the Invalid Email Format. No matter what I do, it defaults to the invalid email address.This is a new MacBook Pro (2019) with Catalina installed. I've tried everything from reinstalling the 64bit program to reimaging the whole machine. It does not ask permission to do screen recording because it only ask for that once I log in (which I cannot do). I finally installed Mojavi, installed and logged into LogMeIn, then upgraded to Catalina. Though the problem is solved, it took a VERY long route to get there. Someone please help with this issue and the "can't run in 2 locations simultaneously" issue from the toolbar icon.

- AshC6 years agoRetired GoTo Contributorbmcintosh If a full re-install at the endpoint did not affect this behavior, we'd really want to work with the problem Mac in order to file an official ticket. Can you give us a call when you have a few minutes to create a case with Customer Support? 
- bmcintosh6 years agoNew MemberI have the same issue. I can use our login email and password to access LogMeIn via the web, but the @ symbol in the email is replaced by %40 when the login happens on the LogMeIn client on MacOS. The client accepts the e-mail with the @ symbol and it looks like the login form is being processed. For example, the email would look like email@domain.ca. Then, the client shows the message "Logging in as email%40domain.ca - followed quickly by a login error. I use a .ca email - I am wondering if it has something to do with the email extension, or with some checking on the e-mail validity? In any case, I suspect that the login script is altering the email after some checks. I am using Version 4.1.7284 (PlugIn: 1.0.2311) of the Mac client on MacOS Catalina (version 10.15.1). I hope this helps ..... Brian 
- Anon805916 years agoNew ContributorI'm getting the same error... Evidently they need to fix this... 
- AshC6 years agoRetired GoTo ContributorUnfortunately we're unable to recreate this behavior ourselves. If you could call directly into Customer Support from the affected machine, in order to collect log files there: https://support.logmeininc.com/pro/help/how-do-i-contact-support 
- AshC7 years agoRetired GoTo ContributorHey there, sorry for the delay here. I am trying to see if we can recreate this OSX experience in-house, to create a ticket for our dev team.
