Email won't take my password from yahoo account

I just made a new yahoo password and unsynced my account and resynced with apple email client and my password still doesn't work, says it's incorrect? How do I fix this?

First verify that you can still login to your yahoo account using Safari web mail interface (to make sure that the password is indeed what you think it is, i.e., that you didn't fat-finger it when you changed it)
Quit Mail if it is running then navigate to your /Applications/Utilities folder and launch Keychain Access. Select the login keychain and passwords category. Find all items associated with your yahoo password and delete them.
Quit Keychain Access and relaunch Mail. You will be prompted for your passwords one more time. Enter them and check the checkboxes to remember them. Subsequent launches of Mail shouldn't ask you anymore...hopefully.

  • ITunes store won't accept my password from my iPhone 5 this morning. Ideas? Know issues?

    iTunes store won't accept my password from my iPhone 5 this morning. Ideas? Know issues?
    And no matter how many times nor what I change the password to I cannot log in to purchase music.
    Help!

    I tried "resetting" my password, but b****y iTunes just keeps asking me for ANOTHER password, and won't accept the password I want to use! I'm getting mighty fed up with iTunes - I'm a senior citizen, and my memory isn't as sharp as it might have been, so passwords HAVE to be fairly simple and OBVIOUS to me. I can't just keep thinking up new passwords because they are getting more and more irrelevant, and I will NEVER remember them.
    What am I supposed to do now?
    I can't use my iPhone when I'm out of the house, because it won't recognise my new email address and password. I can't use BTFON because it needs my password, which I can't get iTunes to accept.
    I can't get the bloody thing to do anything, and although it cost me £600 when I bought it 2 years ago, I'm not very happy with it any more because I just can't get the thing to do anything.
    HELP!!!!

  • IMac running 10.5.8, me email won't accept my password. One day it worked normally, next day it won't and I did not change password. Now I cannot reset the password, almost as if it was changed by someone else. I am the only user of this iMac.

    My email won't accept my password, was working fine, then one day it wasn't. It is almost as if someone else changed the password and now I cannot use my password or change it to a new one. My iMac is running 10.5.8 , using Earthlink and Safari. Any ideas on this problem?

    Are you using the Mail client or Safari to access your email?

  • How to edit etc/apache2/httpd.conf? Pico won't take my password. :(

    How to edit etc/apache2/httpd.conf? Pica won't take my password.
    I can navigate to the pico prompt in terminal ... but when it asks for pw, I try to type, the cursor just blinks, doesn't move, nothing.
    But if there's another way to edit this file, I'll try.
    Just want to uncomment the line about php5 module.
    Thanks!!! xoxo

    I like the tutorial, but yeah you are right, it's sudo, not pico that's not taking my pw. I can sudo pico or sudo vi, either way it asks me for my password but then the cursor doesn't respond to my typing.
    I'm used to vi. You use control keys to navigate and make changes. It has two modes, command and insert. In command mode, to delete the '#' character, for example, move the cursor to '#' and type 'x' to delete it. Type 'i' to enter insert mode and add new text. Press 'esc' to go back to command mode.
    There are numerous ways to save and quit. Usually you type 'ZZ' to save and quit. On some of these system files, their permissions are too restrictive for that. You have to do it the hard way. Type ':w!' to save. The 'w' is for "write" and the '!' is to force a write on a read-only. Then you can quit with "q!'.
    I've never edited an administrative file with pico.
    I can't even chmod to give myself rights to write to httpd.conf . "Operation not permitted."
    Don't try that. Many tools will rightfully refuse to even launch if they detect that their administrative config files have been incorrectly modified.
    internet chatter seems to suggest this 10.7.x is, like, super duper secure.  And I'm new to macs.  I'm logged in as admin, I have all the permissions I can find myself via finder ... but maybe there's a double-secret admin ...
    There is, it is "sudo". Only an admin user has the ability to use sudo to gain root permissions.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • HT5622 I keep getting a pop up about signing into an Icloud account. It won't take the password. I tried to log in on pc and sign in and screwed up on my security questions and it's kicked me out.. how long til I can try again?

    I am in iphone **** or better icloud ****. When I try to go ointo settings on the phone a signin prompt pops up continuously with one apple id. I think i've made it that i have a separate icloud and apple id. I am trying to delete the icloud id. I made all the passwords the same so that there should be no problem but the phone won't still take the password. So when i went in again, looking to see if I could delete the icloud, i screwed up answering my security questions and am now unable to enter that icloud id. How long til I can again? Secondly, since the phone won't accept any password, I have tried to delete it. When I do that, it come up with a request for that same password to shut of the locator service. What the heck? I'm frustrated. I just can't get the hang of apple software and itunes seems to be just as bad for me.  Any suggestions appreciated ( aside from stomping on it, I've considered it). Tried to take the battery out but not for me, mere mortal, thought might reset. Got sim card out. Whooopeeee.

    It sounds like you have the Find my iphone Activation lock for sure. Go to www.icloud.com/find and see if you put in that Apple ID that is coming up and yoru password to see if you are able to sign into the account that way to turn it off. If you are unable to, you will have to contact AppleCare by phone (chat cannot handle account lock outs or forgotten password due to not being able to verify your identity) and see if they can reset it. And are you sure the Apple ID that is coming up yours?

  • Cannot send email from yahoo account on iPhone 5

    I just got an iPhone5 and I couldn't set up my Yahoo email as "yahoo"--it would not allow me to complete the process despot multiple attempts. I had to set it up as an "other" account. I can receive and read emails on my phone, but when I reply those messages will not send. They go to the outbox and an error message pops up that says" the email account has been rejected by the server" Does anyone have advice on either issue: setting up yahoo properly and/or sending email from phone?

    outgoing mail server
    SMTP - Yahoo! SMTP Server
    primary server
    Yahoo! SMTP server - ON
    server port 465
    That's what I have for my yahoo account.
