title: The server principal is not able to access the database under the current security context in SQL Server MS 2012
body: <p>I am trying to access my hosting server’s database through SQL Server Management Studio, everything till login is fine but when I use the command <code>use myDatabase</code> it gives me this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>The server principal "****" is not able to access the database "****" under the current security context.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I searched over and the hosting service providers has listed <a href="http://blog.arvixe.com/how-to-fix-the-the-server-principal-is-not-able-to-access-the-database-error-in-microsoft-sql-server-management-studio/">this</a> fix for the problem.</p>
  
  <p>But this is not working for me probably because it's for SQL Server Management Studio 2008 however I am using SQL Server Management Studio 2012.</p>
  
  <p>Can this be a problem? And if yes than can anyone tell me its alternative in SSMS 2012?</p>
