Send in a support ticket requesting a sim restart to fix a ghosted avatar. A forced Linden tp also fixes it, I hear. It used to be that IMing a ghost, or paying it a L would shift the sim into gear so it realised it had work to do; nowadays those things don't seem to work, however.

You could try (if you haven't already) logging into a different sim, but usually only a sim restart fixes the problem.

I've got the same problem as Zuel. Just used my alt to see if I was showing online, and I am. Tried sending an IM and paying myself some money, but neither worked. Already raised a ticket, but LL support seems to be in a different time zone, so I have to wait hours to get a reply. Also IM'd the sim owner via my alt in the hope that I can trigger a restart that way.

Are there any other possibilities for fixing this?

It's a no-go here.

I went in as my alt, and managed to get someone to reset the sim I was last in, but no luck. I then got him to log in as me, from his computer. This worked - I was able to then log in usng the prmary account, log out, change password, log in again. I flew about in my plane, with the alt as passenger, and everything was fine.

Then, I logged out and did other stuff for a few hours. I come back, and find that the problem has returned. Earlier, I had set things up so that I and my alt could each see each other's location on the map. I went in as my alt, and located the primary avatar - it was miles away, seemingly at the extreme bottom-left location in the grid of sims, in an invalid location.

This time, when I sent an IM from alt to primary, the primary was immediately flagged as offline, and that the message would be stored. Thinking this had cleared it, I tried to log in as the primary. No chance. Same problem persists. Cleared the cache, tried several times, nothing.

As a matter of interest, what do I have to do to get a response out of support in more timely manner than 10 hours and counting? So far, the 'service' has been 100% useless - amountng to being advised to 'clear your cache' 26 HOURS ago. It's been 10 hours since I sent an update, and still no response.

This rash of ghosting is at least in keeping with Hallowe'en.

Nomad, maybe your friend is using a different client - I don't know why that would change things (cleaner closure?) but I might as well grasp at straws ;-D So change client (RC or Nicolaz, or what-have-you.

I wonder if getting rid of your settings.xml would change anything.

Try logging in to a different sim.

Try logging in to Aditi and see if you can do that.

Reset your router.
