IOS Incorrect Password when I put in the correct password?

I have had problems with all four iOS devices on my network for three days. It started Thursday (2/12/15) evening, and has been happening ever since. It has to be a relatively global problem because I have a friend in IT who says all of the 40+ iPads on his network have the same problem. My 2 iPhones and 2 iPads will not connect to my WiFi, and when I type in the password (which I know by heart and have verified several times) it says it's an incorrect password. If I go into my router and change the password and then change it back, the devices will connect again. This seemed to have fixed it -- until mid-day today. I haven't tried any resets yet, I wanted to see if anyone else has had a problem. I believe all the devices are on iOS 8. There are 2 iPad 2s, an iPhone 5S, and an iPhone 5C. My network has no problems with my android phone or several laptops. We have never had issues before. The network is secured using WPA2-PSK.

The password is your login password for your account on your own local system.
This password is not the password associated with your AppleID.
This password entry ensures that you are confirming that potentially significant changes can be made to your operating system. This prompt is intended to increase the difficulty for an attacker intent on loading malware onto your OS X system.
The reason you don't have to do this on (older) Microsoft Windows systems (and many of these are running with the Administrator-level access) is also why these (older) Windows releases can tend to get infected; there's no control over who does what within the operating system files and directories.
Newer Microsoft Windows versions can and be and often are configured for something similar to the Mac authentication dialogs with the user account control (UAC) mechanisms; these prompt for authentication before making changes.

Why do I keep getting an unknown error when trying to download an app from the app store on my iPod touch 4th generation when I put in the correct password?

I keep getting the same unknown error has occurred when trying to download an app what is wrong?

as an example.. from the sprint forum for a different device (unsure what device.. it's just not an iphone since no iphone or ios device has these settings -- ive seen this advice several times and I believe it's some form of android.. but not sure)
advice from the carrier advisor --
"Clear data in the Dialer and Dialer storage.... under manage Applications> All.
That is Settings - Applications - Choose All to view All choices - then find Dialer and clear the Data. Repeat this for the Dialer Storage as well. I personally also deleted the message thread first from the text message window and my log history which is a menu item from your call screen."
and another for you from a customer -- it is sprint again.. but this time a Samsung Epic
"OMG ... if someone can't tell me how to fix this "9230: Message sent using invalid number of digits..." error, I'm going to scream. My husband and I both have Sprint Epic phones and love them EXCEPT for this one problem! Help!"
Maybe they should sue Samsung?

What type of encryption are you using with your wireless network -WEP or WPA?
If your wireless router supports both which it should unless it is quite old and you are using WEP, try switching to WPA which is much more secure than WEP which is important if you have a Windows PC or any Windows based device connected to your network.
In addition, when was the last time you checked Netgear's website to see if there is a firmware update available for your wireless router model that you haven't installed?

I reset my network settings, and when I went to join my wifi network i typed in the correct password, but it will not let me join. Other iphones and devices can however....

Hi Alfred,
I would like to know the exact error message when you sign in, in the meanwhile please try the following steps assuming its Windows, let me know if its a MAC:
1) Go to Start button>> Control panel>> Uninstall a program.
2) Check if you see Browser safeguard there, if yes then uninstall it.
3) Open Internet explorer>> Tools>> Internet options>> Connections>> Lan Settings>> and it should be like this.

My mac book air is stuck on the log in page. When I type in the correct password, nothing happens. How can I get into my laptop??

I Have the latest iOS installment I believe. I don't know what is causing the problem as it was working perfectly last night! When I type in an incorrect password, the laptop recognizes that it is incorrect and denies me access. But when I type in the correct password nothing happens. I've turned the computer on and off and tried connecting to power also.

Really?
How about: MacBook Air
or: OS X Mavericks

My ipod touch will not connect to my wifi even when i put in the correct passcode

when i find my network in the choose a network settings,and choose it i put in the correct passcode it will say unable to connect to wifi. I just want the problem resolved as easy as possible.

If not successful, also
- Do other devices successfully connect using your network?
- Did the iPod successfully connect to the network before?
- Does the iPod successfully connect to other networks?
- Reset the iPod . Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

Does the computer lock me after a certain amount of failed password attmepts, even when i finally have the correct password? recently changed root account password, but then forgot today and when tried again didn't work. if so, how long does lock last?

Ok. So I just changed my ADMINISTRATIVE ROOT PASSWORD the other day and when I tried to log in today I forgot it. I tried different variations of
the password I had set, because I wasn't sure if i had maybe set it in Caps Lock or used a different number in the sequence. I got the message several times
about "too many attempts, try again later". Does the computer lock me from signing in even with the correct password after a certain amount of failed
attempts? If so, how long does this lock last for? When can I try again? Or is there something I need to do to remove that lock now? I'm pretty sure I
had the right password finally but it still wouldn't accept it.
Also, I don't have any other administrative users set up on my macbook pro. I'm the only one who uses it, so I've always just used that original User from my
original setup.

Do this:
1. Reboot
2. Hold apple key + s key down after you hear the chime. (command + s on newer Macs)
3. When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
(Type these commands very carefully)
mount -uw /
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
shutdown -h now
4. After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account. When you login as the new admin you can change the passord on the old one.

Why cant i connect to wifi on my IPad Mini

When i put my password in my Wifi Network..
All it does is show me the loading sign, But it never gave me the blue check mark indicating that's it's connected
But when i try connecting to my mom's hot spot it works..
My Ipad Mini is IOS 8.2
i have tried resetting my network settings
updating it to it's current IOS 8.2
turning off my Ipad and turning it back on
Why is that?
and how should I fix this?

Try resetting your Wi-Fi router. Turn off the power to the router. Leave it off for at least 30 seconds then power it back on. After the router has completed its startup routine and indicates a good connection to the internet, turn on your iPad and try to connect again.

My ipod will not connect to wifi. I have put in the correct password and every thing is fine but it will not connect to it. A screen pops up saying wifi is not connected. What do I do?

..

Does your iPod see the network that you are trying to connect to? Do you have the white bars indicating that it sees a WiFi network?
If so, the first thing you can try is to reboot your router. Unplug it from the power source and then plug it back in and try to connect again.
Try turning WiFi off and then on again. Restart your iPod as well.
