Link Steam error account already bound to another steam ID

[Starheaven]

Help needed.
I am unable to link my FAF to steam account on my computer.
I have 2 computers each with its own steam ID and also each has a copy of FA and FAF different usernames.
My son uses the second computer.
I purchased 2 copies of FA on steam for the purpose of accessing FAF after the 31st Jan on both computers.
Both purchases are not installed as I have 2 retail copies of the game that are non steam (installed).
I had both same email address for steam.
I have since changed the second computer steam email to another email address verified to try and fix this issue.
There are 2 FAF usernames as my son uses the second one on the second computer.
I am still unable to link my FAF to steam on my first computer.
How do i fix this issue now both computers say the same error your account is already bound to another steam ID.

What are the 2 FAF usernames? I cannot find `Starheaven`.

`Eternal-1` and `The_Almighty`? Those 2 accounts have been successfully linked to steam ids: `**************019` and `**************641 (to determine steam id use: https://steamid.io/).

That's probably the reason why you can' link them again. Everything should be fine then.

Just for your info, normally you should be able to use the CD key of the retail copies to redeem a copy of FA on steam by using the activate key feature (without rebuying) although I've just seen it's currently on sale so that's probably not that huge of an issue.

Hi Geosearchef,

That is great thank you for your help.
Yes those are the 2 FAF usernames
FA was heavily discounted on Steam so decided to buy.
I did not wish to link the non steam retail copies of the game to Steam as I prefer to keep them away/separate from Steam.
Will change back to my main email address for Steam on the second PC as I thought this error was due to the same email address on both PC's with Steam.

Your account is already linked to a steam account. (telling from the database)
So nothing to worry about.
