Troubleshooting Tips

If you have trouble logging into MyPG: 

• Make sure you log into MyPG at https://portergaud.myschoolapp.com (not www.blackbaud.com).
• Make sure you use your email address as your username. 
• Search “portergaud.myschoolapp.com” and delete autofill suggestions for this website. This prevents your web browser from trying to log you in using previously saved MyPG account information.
• Every user must use a unique email address for their account. If you don’t have your own email address, please reach out to the helpdesk. 
• Clearing your cache can fix many login troubles. Below is a list of help pages to assist you in clearing your browser history and deleting browser cache:
  • Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Edge
  • Safari

Questions or need more help?
Please contact the Porter-Gaud Help Desk at 843-402-4700 or email helpdesk@portergaud.

• If you get a message that says “user account does not exist,” your web browser was used to login to a student's Blackbaud account in the past. Look for a window that says "continue with (Microsoft) login or use another email address" and click the “use another email” button. If you want to login to different Blackbaud accounts on the same web browser, set up different profiles or use incognito/private mode. Alternatively, clear the web browser cache and search for and delete autofill entries to remove student login info.
• If you get a message that says "user already exists," go to the login page, enter your email address, and click the “forgot password” button. You will receive an email with a password reset link.
