Overview

Quickly resolve common issues with your Emerson account so you can get back to what matters most. If you need additional assistance, our customer success team is here to help.

General troubleshooting

Improve both your Emerson experience and general internet browsing by taking these steps to resolve performance and latency issues. These may also be applicable in troubleshooting more specific issues you’ll find in the following sections.

  • Check that you’re using a recommended internet browser: Emerson works best with Chrome or Firefox.
  • Ensure your internet browser is up to date: Updating your browser ensures that you have the latest bug-fixes and patches.
  • Clear your cache and cookie: Clearing this information saved in your browser will help your browser to run more efficiently.
  • Close unneeded tabs: Making sure that tabs you aren’t using are closed will similarly improve the performance of your browsing software.
  • Ensure you have a stable internet connection: A slow or unstable connection can create all kinds of issues when trying to browse the web in general, or Emerson specifically.

Specific scenarios

Login trouble

If you’ve forgotten your password, click the Forgot password? button on the sign in page. Provide the email address tied to your account, and then click Email me a rest link. We’ll send an email enabling you to reset your password and regain access to your account.

‘An account with this email exists’ errors

If you’re creating a new account, or trying to update the email address on your current account, and you see an error informing you that the “An account with this email exists” or an email “has already been taken”, you will need to either use a different email address to complete your task, or alter the email address where it’s already in use, then come back and try again.

Tip!

Add a + and any word before the @ in your email address to free it up for use in another Emerson account. Ex: [email protected] will let you reuse [email protected].

Checkout errors

If you run into checkout issues, try emptying your cart and restarting your order. This refreshes the checkout system, like reloading a webpage that didn’t load correctly. Don’t hesitate to try the general troubleshooting tips above as well.
