Instead of signing out of one account and signing back in to another account, try using a different browser for each each account so you can stay signed in to each at the same time and avoid juggling sign-ins. Or try using a private or incognito browser window to check another account quickly.

Thank you for the response.   

 

I can log into the other account as I am an authorized user on it.  I can NOT fully log into this account ght2023 my personal account.  It just logs me in as the authorized user on the other account.  I go to switch account (still same login ght2023)   to my personal account via a second login and get the above error.  Normally when clicking "switch account" when I am logged in under my own account it switches out of authorized user status on other account and into my own.  Now I just get the something went wrong screen.   

I have tried in private window with same result.   

I have tried both edge and chrome browsers with same result.

Try a brand new browser you have not used before. Start from the main eBay page and sign in directly with username and password rather than by using a bookmark.

 

If you only use one account per browser, you can avoid all sorts of potential issues.

There may be a problem with the account, then.

 

Try contacting eBay:
