"This Device is no longer associated with its previous account" unable to get past message
![](/avatar/default.png)
I've been trying to get my camera setup at my new place and no matter how many times I reset this thing and try to reset it up it gives me this error. One attempt I was able to get it to setup and I could see myself through the camera on the app and when I unplugged it and moved it to its permanent home I get this error again without any changes other than moving it.
I also can't seem to delete any devices from my account? I will remove them and they disappear for a few seconds then show back up. What is going on with my account / setup?
Is the app trash again?

@Fayko I get this too!
Very annoying. I found if I keep selecting the camera and hitting okay on the message, I eventually get to see it. But not always.

got this message on 5 cameras today. Now they have all dropped off my app. I cannot see any of them. Did anyone find out what is going on?

@Clffhnger I found I had to reinstall the KASA app on my phone. Once I did that, I stopped getting the messages on my Tapo app and I can see the camara's on both apps now without the message.

@Clffhnger I wasn't able to fix it I just gave up tbh. I tried removing everything and redoing the setup and it was still doing the same.

Same BS for me. Everything seemed to be controlled by Tapo so I dropped Kasa so I could manage the new and old cameras just with one app. Nope. Had to reinstall Kasa - weirdly though, 1 of the old cameras still came through to Tapo without Kasa installed just fine. No idea why the others didn't.

@Shoitaan I had one camera stay on too. So weird. Eventually all other cameras magically reappeard and all work fine.

@Clffhnger I received the same message after my child's father was left unattended with my security camera. He got so angry and defensive when I asked what he was doing. Anyway, he works in IT. I feel like he somehow gave himself access to my private in- home camera.....Is this a possibility?
My thinking is, if my camera is no longer associated to my account. Well then, who's account is my camera associated to if not mine? Does anyone know how to check to see who has viewing access/ capabilities per device?

@Karmababe if this is a concern of yours don't even bother with trying to check anything. The cameras have a factory reset on them. Reset the cameras and reset it back up to confirm he has no access.
