Good day!
what QB are you using, online or desktop?
Thank you for reaching the Community, @cwright1.
@EXPERThere has a point on what version of QuickBooks are you using.
If you're using QuickBooks Online, let's, use a private browser or an incognito window upon logging in to your account to isolate the issue. Afterward, clear the cache of the browser that you're currently using if it works.
Here’s how:
If it works, here's how to clear cache and cookies.
You can also use a different browser since every browser uses a different cache storage folder on your computer.
Also, if you're using QuickBooks Desktop, make sure you are opening the latest backup Company file, for you to be able to log in to your account in QuickBooks Desktop.

Thanks for joining this thread, @delkins.
We can perform some troubleshooting to see if this is a browser-related cause.
I'd like to start with opening a Private Window or an Incognito Window in your web browser. This will open your account in a clean slate and loads fresh data. Here's how:
Once you're in the Private / Incognito Window, try to sign in to your QuickBooks Online account.
If it works, you can go back to your original browser and clear the cache. Alternatively, you can use other compatible browsers.
You can follow this Community Article if you need to reset your password or recover your User ID for your QuickBooks Online account: Manage Log In Credentials.

Hello there, CarlJr.
Let me share with you a way on how you can sign in to QuickBooks Desktop and be able to access your company file again.
We can reset your admin password so you can log in to your company file. You'll have to confirm some information for the security purpose of resetting your password. I can see that you've changed your password already but doing it can be a big help to log in QuickBooks successfully.
Here are the steps to follow:
You can log in to your Customer Account Management Portal (CAMPS) to verify if all the information you entered is correct. Once done, you’ll receive a code at your registered email address and use that code through creating a new admin password. Feel free to read this article for more details about getting back into your company file: Resetting the Admin Password.
Another way is to use our Automated Password Reset Tool. For the complete details and steps, please check this article: Automated Password Reset Tool.
Let me know if you still need a hand in logging in to your QuickBooks company file. I'm here to assist you anytime. Stay safe and be well!
