I know this isn't a Ubuntu technical question, though I did register my username through google. Now that I go to update my profile and save it says the email address is already registered. Is there a separate link somewhere im supposed to use to update my profile?

This question came from our site for Ubuntu users and developers.

Most online sites don't allow multiple accounts with the same email, which could be the issue... (Haven't tried it here, but it is the case for many) – Wilf Jul 12 '14 at 8:56

Looks like you have another account on Ask Ubuntu already. Did you lose access to that one? – Seth♦ Jul 13 '14 at 19:22

First, you need to gain access to your old account:
https://askubuntu.com/help/reset-password
Then, you need to merge the old account with the new account:
https://askubuntu.com/help/merging-accounts
Be sure to edit the new account to be "merge keep" and the old one to be "merge delete".
