So i was having the same problem with the update many people have been having, so i went ahead and deleted the Shaman folder, now when i go to log in it says Max Sessions Auth failed, i did not have this problem tell after i deleted said folder??????????????????
that hapens ef u close the buddy window ,wide out stoping buddy ,give it 5 min or so and try again^^ ,
If you run into this problem in the future, since you said it resolved it self, just visit the BuddyAuth site and kill whatever sessions are still logged in.
I have the same problem with the max sessions error. I have went into the buddy auth portal and killed the current session but this didn't solve the issue of max sessions for me
