Once you have done one (1) of the above steps, this will prompt you to login your username and password. Enter your username on the "Username" text field. This is not case-sensitive, so you can type in lowercase or uppercase format or even combination of both lowercase and uppercase format, as long as the username entered is correct. Next, enter your password on the "Password" text field. This, on the other hand, is case-sensitive. Make sure to enter the correct password to avoid error. See figure below.
