ubuntu-one

I uninstalled Ubuntu One about two months ago and now I re-installed it. I can still login with my account through the site (Ubuntu One) but the client keeps telling me "The authentication failed".

If I try to use the Recover password option it also fails with telling me that my email address is not recognized (while I can use it with zero issues through the site)

If I attempt to create a new account from the client, it also fails to load the captcha every time.

Something is clearly broken here but I can't figure out what it is. Any ideas?
