Account login failure without error report

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use Flist from your main PC first 
2. Accquire a new laptop
2.5 Install Pidgin on the new laptop (the same pidgin version as you're using 
on your main PC)
3. Copy your C:>Program Files (x86)\Pidgin folder to the new laptop, to 
duplicate your plugins and account settings to the new laptop. 
4. Be likely logged in two times from the same IP from two different instances 
of Pidgin on the same character... 
5. Log in to one of the effected characters to recieve no log in errors, but no 
friends/bookmarks list, and to find that under Accounts> Username:Charactername 
(F-list)> that the contents of the drop box are: 
----------------
Edit Account
No Actions Available
Disable
----------------
6. Discover also that one out of four characters is uneffected, likely to be 
because of that character being disabled throughout the entire time that the 
issues began. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I have expected to be able to log into my characters as normal, but I recieve 
the above described result in point #5. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows 7 (64-bit) SP 1
Pidgin 2.10.4
libflist-0.2.7.0.dll

Please provide any additional information below.
Any information on how to rectify the problem is welcome. (Charactername Winge 
for contacting)
Characters effected by this issue on pidgin are not effected when logging into 
f-chat via the browser interface. 
This issue appears to be due to user stupidity, but is an issue that other 
users are likely to encounter in the future, given that multiple computers in 
one household is common. It may be a wise issue to adress. 

Much appreciated <3

Issue resolved, solution is to delete the effected accounts under 'manage 
accounts' and  re-create them.
