Although I'm now second-guessing myself. Going back and looking at the message Keith sent you, Amalie, it seems pretty clear that Keith would have been working at a drug manufacturer:

Tried november and november22 with Keith's trisphere account and so far no luck.

Yeah, I'm not really sure where to go from here. November 22, 1122 or 2211, for something maybe? Or is there some significant event that happened on November 22?

P.S. Sorry for the double post back there.

I've tried quite a few iterations on the Nov 22 theme but haven't had any luck:

November

November 22

November 22nd

22 November
22 november
22nd November
22nd november
November22nd
november22nd
22.11
11.22
22/11
11/22
2211
1122
November22
november22
22November
22november
Nov22
nov22
22Nov
22nov

I've looked to see if there's anything particularly significant about the date and the big one is that it's the date of JFK's assassination. JFK isn't the answer but maybe something related to that? It seems too big an event to be a coincidence.

It's also the first possible day of Thanksgiving (but that isn't the password) and also the first day of the Sagittarius date range (again, nothing). I've also had a look at other significant happenings in music on that date. Again, nothing really leaps out at me. Michael Hutchence died on that day in 1997 but I don't see that being relevant.

New image from Keith's folder attached.

Beatles dates, presumably. I'll see what I can find.

Is that a steak? Are we talking "Meet the Beatles" 1/20/1964 ??

Must be -- I had no idea that the early albums were different in the US to the UK releases!

Still, that throws a real spanner in the works. The November 22 link seemed to be cast-iron but this changes everything!

Yup, I'm confused.

"When "With The Beatles" was released in England on November 22, 1963, not many American's were even aware of its release, or The Beatles for that matter, and had it been released in the US at this same time, it may have gone unnoticed, at least for a while, what with its release coinciding with one of America's darkest days; the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The counterpart in America to "With The Beatles," was "Meet The Beatles!" The albums had similarities, as the cover picture was the same, yet they contained many different tracks. With the British releases, all albums had fourteen tracks to the American counterparts twelve. Additionally, album titles were different until the release of "Sgt. Peppers' Lonely Hearts Club Band." This is discussed in further detail in one of my earlier articles: The Beatles, Their History, Their Songs and What They Mean, 1957-1970."

I feel like I'm clutching at straws a little here but the years in which the two non-Beatles songs were released do seem to have some Beatles significance.

Get A Job - released 1957, which is the year Lennon and McCartney first met.

Rockhard in a Funky Place - released 1994 (officially, although there was a promo-only release in '87), which is the year McCartney, Harrison and Starr last recorded together for Free as a Bird and Real Love (although those weren't released until '95 and '96 respectively).

I don't know if that's relevant or not, frankly. I'm really quite stumped.

Yeah, I'm really not sure either. Tried a few iterations of various dates as passwords, but I'm not even sure which format to use.

I asked Keith for more advice on passwords as I was still having trouble remembering mine after setting it. His reply:

I also pressed for a bit more information on choosing a password. I got the following reply

Interesting. His comments to me about a date or period of time make me think that the November 22nd thing must be the connection we're looking for (the only doubt being that I can't find anything more specific than just 'November' for Get a Job. If November 22nd is the date we're looking for, though, then surely the assassination of JFK is the major event?

However, the latest image on his Google Drive file seems to suggest the date of Meet The Beatles being released as booba pointed out, which is 20th January 1964. That curveball has me completely confused.
