Your Technic account has nothing to do with the Technic Launcher, nor do you require to use that to log in. You have to log in using your premium Minecraft account (meaning that you must have bought the game on minecraft.net).

I did buy mine on minecraft.net and it wont let me either.

I am having the same problem as well. Any solutions yet?

After you buy Minecraft from Mojang you use the same username and password as you used to create that account in mojang.

The best way to test if it's a Mojang or Technic problem: download Minecraft's vanilla launcher from Mojang. Log in. Did it work? Then you should use the same username and password on Technic launcher

Yes - it worked. I checked my log in and password on the Minecraft launcher and put the same into Technic. Problem fixed! Thank you!

Mine won't work either and I am using the same password as my MC account....
