Apple id on my i phone 4 keeps telling me my password is incorrect when it works on my mac?

how do i fix this ive tried logging in and out and changing my password multiple times?

Can you log-in to web based gmail without issues?
Just delete your gmail accounts from your iPhone and Mac, and set them up again using your new password. I'm not an iPhone user and I don't use the stock Mail client in OS X (so unfortunately, I can't give you a step-by-step) but setting up the accounts again should solve your issue.

My iPhone 4s keeps telling me my password is incorrect when I try to use the app store, but it's definitely NOT incorrect.

When I try to update apps in the app store from my iPhone 4s, it says the password is incorrect. I'm positive it's correct. I even went through yesterday and changed my passwords just in case (I have two apple ids - they now both have the exact same password.) I was able to go to the app store yesterday and download an app using that password, but then tried to update some apps and it says the password is incorrect - and it's said that ever since. I can go to settings and log into the store with the password - view my cc info, etc. So it's definitely correct. Heck, I can even log into this forum with that password - so it's definitely the right one. What can I do?

Okay - tried that and it didn't work either. HOWEVER ...
I SEEM TO HAVE FOUND THE ISSUE! If this happens to anyone else, this might help you ...
A while back I had to set up a second apple ID in order to use the iCloud. So now I have two (annoying), and from what I'm reading on forums, this has happened to many people and you still can't merge accounts. But I digress.
Apparently the apps in question were purchased on one apple ID, but the phone had the other apple ID set within the app store. The store, it seems, will only update the apps if you're logged in as the account that initially purchased the apps. So it means going to Settings > Store > Log out, then log back in with the other ID. Annoying. But at least I know, now, what's going on.
The password, it seems, was right all along (since I have the same password for both IDs). Too bad the phone's error message told me the password was incorrect, instead of saying something more useful like "This apple ID is not authorized to update this app." Or ... something like that. Apparently I've been chasing down the wrong solution due to the wrong error message being given.

I am trying to reset my iPhone 4S and it keeps telling me my password is incorrect when its not. I am using my correct and current password.

Can someone help me reset it ? It's really annoying me and it makes me wait 5,15 mins each time when I'm using the correct password.

This same thing happend to me, you have to make a new account and you have to chose your birthday as if your under 18 or 16, because if you dont own a credit card, you shouldnt be over this age, so basictly just make a new email and appleID and when you chose your birthday, do it under 16 years of age (or your REAL birthday) and you should have an option of clicking "none" for credit card options, but if you want to buy something, you will have to do the credit card stuff, or you can just buy an apple gift card at basictly any store, So this is how i fixed my problum, i hope it works for you, write back your responce of how it worked out please!

I believe Gmail has an option for Two-Step verification that may require a different password for mobile devices than for your computer.

HT201320 Google keeps telling me my password in incorrect

I am adding a gmail account and they keep telling me my passsword s incorrect. I cahned the password and it is still telling me that.

Ok. That can be fixed.
1. Try Logging out of your Apple ID. Then Log back in and try the Password again.
Or if that doesn't work:
Contact Google.
If that's not the issue, Contact Apple Tech Support. They'll tell you if it's a Firmware or something else that's making that Issue.
Here's Apple's Number: (United States):

Ichat Keeps Telling Me My Password is Incorrect

I have an AIM account that I have been using for years and I eventually got a mac and put it into Ichat, everything worked perfectly. All my friends were transfered and everything. However, after a year a symbol came up next to my username. It was a little lightning bolt and it says ichat has lost conncection to AIM. Now whenever I try to long in it tells me my password is incorrect. I have reset my password, I have made new accounts and I keep getting the lightning bolt next to the username and an incorrect password pop up even when I am 100% sure the password is correct. Help please!

HI,
As well as in iChat and the AIM Server login if you changed the Password then also use this Older User Tip at the Next Step section to check the Keychain.
You may need to check the Access tab to make sure iChat can access that Password.

When I hit mail to check my e-mail it keeps telling me the password is incorrect and its not!

When I go to check my email a box pops up telling me the password is wrong and it's not! I have tried shutting my phone completely off and turn it back on and it still does it!

If not, delete and recreate the account.

Every time I reset my password to update my apps, and go back to use the newly created password, it keeps telling me the password is incorrect.

No matter what I do, I cannot log in to update my apps. I even went to appleid.apple.com to Manage My Account and NOTHING works. I have reset the password a zillion times and it will not work. I called Apple, but they can't even assist me with password help, which is ridiculous! This is so frustrating. I have Signed out of the iPhone store in the General Settings, turned off my phone, reset it, created a new name, and NOTHING will work!
HELP!!

Yes, this happens directly on my iPhone. I go to my App Store icon on my phone, try to "Update All" and my username pops up lookng for the password. I type in the password, and it keeps saying it is incorrect. When I follow the prompts to "reset" a password, I create a new, go back, and the NEW password I just created, literally seconds ago, NEVER WORKS! I've gone to the General Settings icon to log out, log back in, then I go to the iTunes store, log out, log in....NOTHING works. It is drving me crazy!! I can purchase apps, just can't update. I have no idea how to fix, since Apple will not assist me. They say I need to purchase the Apple Care Protection, which is so ridiculous that I have to "pay" to get support on a simple task, such as password help! Sigh...

Ipod froze and now it keeps telling me my password is incorrect.

I have a 3rd generation itouch and today it froze and then later when i went to unlock it, it keep saying incorrect password. i have connected it to my computer and im able to sync it but i have not been able to find a way to unlock it from itunes. Please help

It sounds like you forgot the passcode required to unlock the iPod for use. Sometimes iPod tend to have a passcode set due to corruption. Try placing it in recovery mode and restoring it via itunes. You may have to restore to factory defaults/new iPod. Tp place n recovery mode see:

Apps are permanently tied to the AppleID that downloaded them and cannot be transferred to another. Best thing to do is delete the apps and download those you want or need under your AppleID.
