Each RealTeam participant needs a RealTeam login. You can either create a RealTeam account or login with your Cloud Backup account. However, if you would like, you can use the same login as your Cloud Backup account. Once you have created your account, you can log into RealTeam.

To create a new RealTeam login do the following:

   In the Confirm Password field, type the same password you typed in the Password field. If this password doesn't match the first password you type, the message The passwords don't match displays.
