There can be several reasons why you did not receive an activation email.
- There was a typo or error in the email address when you registered on edx.org. So, it's being sent somewhere else.
- For some reason, you might not have successfully registered an account on edx.org.
- The automated activation email message was caught by your spam filter.
- Your email provider might have blocked the automated email message.
Here's what you can do:
- Check your spam or junk mail folder for an email from no-reply@registration.edx.org.
- Add no-reply@registration.edx.org and registration.edx.org to your email contacts or approved senders list.
- Try creating a new account again with the same email address. If the account already exists, an error will display indicating that there is a duplicate email address.
- From the edx.org log in page, click Forgot my password. Clicking the link in the password reset message will activate your account. (You don't have to reset your password.)
