Welcome to Internet Identity. New user? Register with Internet Identity

I think maybe I’m missing something? I’ve tried to register with Internet Identity on a number of browsers/platforms, with little success:

  1. Android v9 / Chrome 92 — successful
  2. MacOS Catalina (10.15.7) / Safari 14.1.2 – blank screen after “installing internet computer…”
  3. MacOS Catalina (10.15.7) / Firefox 72.0.2 – blank screen. Debug page shows 400 Bad Request, “Specified ingress_expiry not within expected range”
  4. iOS 14.6 / Firefox Daylight 35.0 – “Your browser is not supported” message after “installing internet computer…”
  5. iOS 14.6 / Chrome 92 – “Your browser is not supported” message after “installing internet computer…”

…what am I missing here? I’ve used both https://identity.ic0.app/ and NNS Dapp (just in case).

UPDATE
For iOS: So I observed that FaceID on my iPhoneX was problematic/not working so naturally it seemed the problem was linked to that (i.e. Apple’s FIDO/WebAuthn would need biometric reader on the device). I borrowed a friend’s iPhone 8 with a working touch reader and I was able to get to the setup page (I didn’t proceed further).

MacOS. My Mac is an older model without any biometric capabilities. I assume this is why it doesn’t work, and I would need a yubikey or something like that.

I appear to be having the same issues as everyone else and it’s incredibly frustrating. I went as far as to buy a security token on Amazon, hoping it would work. I got the Thetis FIDO2 security key. I added it as a recovery key using my computer, it allowed me to do that. It says it was registered successfully. So then i try to login, but the website tells me “the security key is not registered with this website”. So I go back and try and add it again as a security key for account recovery, but then it tells me “you already registered this security key, you don’t have to register it again”

At this point, i’m just going to pray i don’t lose my cellphone and get my money back for this security key that is apparently useless.

Now you can use your phone to add new devices. It works on Hello Windows. I did it. I now use my phone and 01 laprtop + 01 PC. I’m waiting for when it can work out on Ubuntu 20.4 which I need to learn to build Dapp/website by tutorial.

I entered the ICP forum for the first time, and it feels great !!!

Try removing it as a recovery device and then adding it as a security key.

UPDATE 2: Also run into problems when local system time and IC time differ significantly. Worth checking if you run into this.

same result… a message that says “Try a different security key. You’re using a security key that’s not registered with this website.” So then i select “i already have an anchor but am using a different device”, go to that screen and attempt to login and when prompted for the security key, it gives me the message “you already registered this security key. you don’t have to register it again”… I just keep going in circles unless there is something i’m missing.

dfx sdk can only work on linux and mac. but internet identity doesn’t support linux…what??? this is not right.

Coming back after 6 months to try to log into identity and use the app for staking. Still not resolved? Jeez…

BROWSER
Tried all browsers, always demands a security KEY…don’t have one, which key do you recommend? No other ways? How is this planned to be resolved, not gonna be any adoption if things stay like this…

MOBILE
Managed to progress on my mobile (chrome browser) but was stuck on the anchor management page.

I can only add device or add recovery, or delete one of them, or log out, but then when I log back in, I come back to this page and I am stuck. Cannot get into the app.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I now bought the Yubikey 5 NFC and I was able to come to this step. When I open in another window it says that the security key is not recognizable. Please help, how the hell does this work?

Hi there, @Seed0 .

I just saw this. I have escalated this to the team to see how they can help (there may be some operating system nuances).

Have you been able to register an anchor id? Have you reviewed the instructions here?: How to use Internet Identity :: Internet Computer

Thanks for your intervention Diego!

Yes, absolutely. I have gone through all the documentation and guides. Bought the yubikey and did all the steps but it keeps bringing me back to the same place. Either to the managing devices screen on mobile, or “new device” screen posted above. The URL does not take me anywhere further.

I use windows 10 and android 11 on mobile.

I have accumulated quite a bag and want to put it to long-term staking asap as I have faith in the long-term success of Dfinity

send in a ticket to support@dfinity.org and we can look into it further.

Ubuntu 20.04, I have no biometrics and no security key. How can I add my device? I created an anchor already from my ios with face id.
