I cannot find my PDT configuration on PayPal anymore. I find docs that reference a Website Payment Preferences that I cannot find.
help!?
This should take you straight to it: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/customerprofileweb?cmd=_profile-website-payments
Long way is to log in, click on Profile, then Profile and Settings, then My Selling Tools, then Website Preferences.

All the PayPal documentation states that in order to create sandbox users I log in to developer.paypal.com using my normal login details.
And then click Applications & Sandbox Accounts
There is No Applications option anywhere on the page! I see the Paypal interface has been updated recently. Is there new details I am missing? I have searched everywhere on PayPal help and it all refers to an 'Applications' option on the screen.
Help?!
Once you create your account, You will find an menu "Dashboard"
Click on that.
After that in the side menu you will find Sandbox->accounts, here you will find create account button.
For further refernce follow:- https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/lifecycle/sb_create-accounts/
I am a mobile developer and I frequently use facebook to add sharing feature to my applications.
I usually have alot of applications on my facebook developer account.
But today all my apps have disappeared and my account seems to not be a developer account.
When I click on the "Applications" menu (on https://developers.facebook.com/) I only see "Register as a Developer" in the dropdown menu.
Someone have any idea how to fix this?
I have exactly the same issue. If there was a violation - and I don't think there was as the app is in sandbox - I received no notification of this. The literature states that an app will be disabled, not that an entire developer account will be removed. As I have other active apps this is quite a problem. It seems I can set up another developer account but one assume all existing apps will need to be set back up. Clusterf**k
UPDATE:
I re-signed up as a developer and all my apps are still there. A fright, but better that!
I'm not registered to accept payments. I couldn't find a hint of official support on the subject of 'closed developer accounts' nor any real way to directly engage other than firing off a bug report. As I said, re-registering did the trick and they just asked for a few bits of info.
I'm trying to integrate Paypal's ExpressCheckout API into my website.
I'm incurring into very frustrating problems with the system and with the support assistance, too.
Every time we have a problem the support assistance invites us to change the implementation technology, from SOAP, to SDK, to NVP, etc..
After 3 days of working (from coding with SOAP (PHP) up to the attempt to start the SDK's examples) no solution has yet been found.
I'd like to know if someone has ever had similar problems.
Thank you in advance.
I completely understand and share your frustrations.
The current issue I am having is after a call to SetExpressCheckout() using the .NET SDK I redirect to the PayPal sandbox URL with the appropriate command and token specified on the querystring and when the browser gets to the PayPal site it says "Please log in to use the PayPal sandbox features" which is linked to the developer.paypal.com site.
If I log in first on another tab and then redirect to PayPal it still doesn't work, aarrggh!
Stefano - What type of issue are you currently having?
Peter - What particular browser are you using? There have been a few issues in the past with IE. If you are using IE, you might try using Chrome or Firefox to see if you get different results. I just tested all 3 and they were working for me. You also might try clearing all cookies and cache prior to opening up a browser and navigating to developer.paypal.com. Once you have cleared cookies and cache, open up the browser and go to developer.paypal.com and log in. Then once logged in, on a second tab pull up your website and try testing.
Clearing the cache and cookies prior going to developer.paypal.com has worked for some merchants in the past that were having these same issues.
I have been trying to access my Paypal Sandbox but no luck. I can login fine to my PayPal account but when I try to access https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/webapps/hub/ or https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/ I keep getting a page cannot be displayed error. I have flushed my cache and have tried IE, Firefox and Chrome but none seem to work.
None of the links from within PayPal to the sandbox work either.
Perhaps behind some type of firewall or security setting that is blocking access. What pages on the sandbox are you specifically trying to access. Make sure you are signing into PayPal's Developer Site first at (developer.paypal.com), and then try accessing one of your accounts you have set up by clicking the link under you test account that says access sandbox site. Otherwise after signing into the developer account, you can open up another tab and go to the sandbox site at https://www.sandbox.paypal.com and see if that page comes up for you. You should be able to sign in there.
I was facing the same problem but I could find a workaround.
If you pay attention in the links of the left menu (My business info, my money..), they are leading to pages in the domain "beta-sandbox" and that's the problem.
Copy the link and change the domain for "sandbox"
For instance, the correct link for
https://www.beta-sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_profile-display-handler&tab_id=SELLER_PREFERENCES
is
https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_profile-display-handler&tab_id=SELLER_PREFERENCES
just found that PayPal changed their Sanbox, now I need real PayPal account to develop.
Ok, I went to my real one, imported my test sandbox accounts into it. Then, I go to one of these accounts on developer.paypal.com, and click "sandbox site" link. I expect that it will go to sandbox site where I can log in with this test account. But instead after clicking the link I'm getting "please login to use PayPal sandbox features" message on paypal.sandbox.com, that has a link to developer.paypal.com, where I'm logged in already. So, I don't know any way to log in with my test accounts now. Please help.
This is a known issue due to transition from old sandbox to the new site. You need to delete your cookies and re-login to access the sandbox site. Please note that IE has permanent cookies stored on file system that need to be deleted. Firefox or Chrome would work better than IE8.
