http://www.webmasterworld.com/google_adsense/4002456.htm might explain a few things.
How? Today is not Saturday.
But I can log in (just did so).
As did I.
it keeps telling me to update
Cause I've not seen any in a while ...
What update ?
Update your AdSense and AdWords login to a Google Account
Are you one of the following people?
* info@example.com
If so, then you have already updated your login to a Google Account.
I can get into the business centre, AdWords, Analytics etc but not AdSense...ah well, I'll have a beer and check again in the morning
having to manually log in despite being logged in to my Google account
Good, it's not just me. ;)
Therefore, something has changed in a major way.
I have an AdSense account with jettero@example.com
I have an Google account with jettero@example.com
And when I want to combine, there is the message
AdSense account with jettero@example.com already exists
Login to your Google Accounts. Then from your Accounts page, paste this link into your browser and press Enter:
[google.com...]
Hope this helps. For some reason it works for me.
When I get stuck in that loop I open a new tab and sign in to my google webmaster account. Then I refresh the Adsense page and try again, and it logs me in with no problems.
Just tried the trick, does not work, same loop
What is weird is it no longer remembers me, the single sign on does not work. And when I do relogin to Adsense, it loads my reports page in the small login box frame. So I can't do anything since the frame is so small. Weird.
This has been happening since yesterday.

This has worked for me, thanks...otherwise still in the old groundhog day loop!
They simply did not want me to see what an excellent Tuesday I had:-)
The single sign-on no longer works though. Even on my computer I keep getting asked to login every time. And as I said before, I linked all my Google accounts years ago when it first became an option.

Doesn't work for me either.
p.s. Could this possibly be something which Google is doing deliberately after the reported Gmail phishing attacks? To make sure there are no attempts on AdSense?
I also have to log in manually even though I am logged in to Google accounts. Annoying.
I have my Norton Internet Security set to autologin for certain sites, so it automatically fills in the Adsense login for me.
after the reported Gmail phishing attacks?
I was wondering that too.

I had to wait a good 10 seconds or so for it to load and it's still my only access method...sa far!
I'm looking into a possible workaround and will let you know as soon as it's ready.
In the meantime, I'm really sorry for the inconvenience.

It looks like this issue is only happening to folks who signed up for AdSense before we asked everyone to use a Google Account. When we migrated everyone over to Google Accounts, if you used the same email address for your Google Account as for your previous account, you may be experiencing problems with your login screen right now.
This also explains why so many WebmasterWorld people are seeing this problem, as you guys tend to be some of our most experienced AdSense publishers.
We're still working on correcting the issue, but I'll get back to you as soon as we've got something in place. In the meantime, some publishers experiencing this same issue have reported that they can log in using this URL: [google.com...] Let us know if you're still having issues logging in using this URL.

Thanks ASA...whilst resolving this issue, and especially for those of us with the older accounts, please feel free to increase our CTRs and EPCs and delete smart pricing...pretty please:-)
