Apple ID password not recognized in io6

Recently upgraded my new ipad 3rd gen to iO6 and can no longer access my account.
Ever time I enter my password, another pop up would ask for it again. Despite the numerous attempts.
Weird because I can sign and out under settings, but even while signed in, apple would still ask for my password when I try downloading an application, paid or free.
Worse, apple would also ask me that I néed to sign in first before I can proceed with a purchase but won't accept my password when I try to key it in.
I'm sure I'm not the only one....
Someone please help...
I gave up my choice to get a Samsung galaxy note 10.1 for this, hope I did not make a really bad decision.

Okay, if you've got your Apple ID and Password set right and you can sign in okay on the Apple ID sign in on the web ... you just may have to scrub your iPad clean and get a fresh start on the iPad. That way, you just enter your Apple ID on a "factory fresh iPad" and there can' be a problem at that point (again ... as long as the Apple ID and Password is okay on its own).
A factory reset can be done with your iTunes program on your computer. Be sure to turn off the anti-virus software on your computer, while you are doing the process. Since you can't sign in. With your Apple ID, I suppose that means you can't do an iCloud backup, but you'll probably be able to do an iTunes backup. The following will give you some Apple Support documents on the subject. The last one is for the reset to factory default ...

Apple ID password not recognized on MacBook Pro

When initially setup, iCloud recognized my Apple ID and PW on my MacBook Pro; now as of today, it registers the password as invalid, so I reset the password using Apple password 'genie': iPhone and iCloud (web) both recognize my (new) password as valid, Apple Support recongizes my password, but iCloud (MacBook Pro) does not.
There seems to be no recourse w/in iCloud to go any further.
Any Suggestions? other threads?
TIA

Hi Laramar,
You may need to change the information on your iPhone:
iPhone User Guide:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
View and edit your account: Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores, tap your Apple ID, then tap View Apple ID. You can turn subscribe to iTunes newsletters, and view Apple’s privacy policy. To change your password, tap the Apple ID field.
Hope this helps!

HT202274 Password change old password not recognized after 10.9.5 upgrade

God bless you, peace.
macbook pro 2012 user password not recognized after 10.9.4 too 10.9.5 upgrade plus tech work at apple.
I want to change user password, it is allowing me to get into user account and admin account on computer but I recently changed it for the tech work to be done. I would like to put the password back now to old password or a new one but... The few days old new password pre update and pre tech work is not being accepted to allow me to change to another password.
recent update, after 10.9.4 to 10.9.5 update and apple tech work done.
1. Tech work replaced optical drive,
2. 10.9.4 to 10.9.5 upgrade left computer endlessly booting up, then got into finder window tried to read backup drive and screen went to black curser and could not backup information as techs decided may need to be done before I left it with them.
3. Also track pad was not (is not again) selecting text to drag unless real hard press and then only intermittently would select text or just drop the selection (not hold the selected text after a long scroll select, did work at first after tech work but back to not working). It is still not responding easily when pressed, but it is much better, as they did something with software they said. Today While typing this I am trying to select words misspelled and it does not select them unless I press not as hard it is becoming the same as before I see now, sometimes less pressure is needed but more than should be used.
I noticed today after tech work The Spell check is not responding with a two finger tap on the red underlined misspelled words without multiple try's with two finger tap. The curser moves around after selecting words also, or when selecting words so hard the curser moves to another place not on the desired words or check box. The curser arrow tip should select the word but it does not recognize unless I put the tail of the arrow onto the word then it recognizes the misspelled word for spell check on two finger gesture.
It looks like I need to take it back, I tried to call and check to confirm if the track pad intermittently and curser adjustment was serviced. In order to verify I had called three times to get that information to no avail. endless looped in the phone que, one would answer take info and then forward me to a endless loop dial ing phone that never was picked up, supposedly at the Bay street store tech section. Phone voice mail from apple support status on the repair, ...Juliano from Bay Street Apple repair store Emeryville, ca left a voice message... just generically said optical drive replacement is successfulI, I noticed right away three items were to be addressed but only the optical drive was mentioned, so I called three times to try and verify the other problems. One whole minute just to select this text and copy it to notes for a backup. It would not select at first, then after selected it would not copy it, then it would not paste to notes, it paste the last cut and paste I did 10 minutes ago.
I do not have a easy excellent wifi connection for my wifi only phone and would prefer email or chat for repair help. apple Repair No: R142180337

Try running the combo update. It fixes more files/data than the App Store upgrade.

My Apple tv is not recognizing my Apple ID, what can i do?

My Apple tv is not recognizing my Apple ID, what can i do??

yeh me too. Everything seems to be working with my Thomson TG782T modem, it recognises the appletv on the wireless network, I can communicate with my itunes on my computer from the appletv menu system, my itunes library comes up on the appletv menu, but when trying to rent a movie it says that my password is not being recognised. Yet I can buy books from the itunes store using the same password from my ipad. I am at complete loss...my telecommunications company (Telstra) has no idea.
Do you think these little checks and changes to my password will help?

In iPhoto, when i try to email a photo using "share", I keep getting"username/password" not recognized. It used to work automatically before.

I cannot email a photo using iPhoto "share. I keep getting "username/password not recognized". I used to use this function all the time but all of a sudden, I keep getting this message.

In iPhoto, open Preferences (under iPhoto in the menu bar) and click the "Accounts" tab on top. Make sure your email account(s) is/are set up there correctly, just as they are in Apple's Mail. Make sure the password in included.

ID and password not recognized

I have an iCloud account and everything was super until two days ago. I, by mistake, deleted the user Library directory so the Mac said "An error occourred. You can't log in" or something like that. I re-installed lion and now, when I try to log in in the iCloud "tab" on System Preferences, the Mac says "ID or Password not recognized, try to log in after a whiile" or also "You're already logged in" or "I cant' send a new verification mail, there's a problem with the server".
With my iPhone end with the other installation of lion on an other HDD (but also on www.icloud.com) everythig is ok.
I have two HDD: an SSD where I put system files and in the other there is my home directory. I use symbolik link in order to have the user library on the SSD. I think I messed up with permission because I use my old home directory with this new user (for example I need the password just to delete a file from the "Download" directory...)
Sorry for my bad english and the long post...
Thank you everyone!

Apple id password not accepted on icloud

why is my apple id password not accepted when I try to login to iCloud? The same password worked when I tried to login to support to post this question!

If Settings>iCloud is showing your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Why is my apple ID password not working on ipad2 after updating to iOS6?

Why is my apple ID password not working after upgrading to iOS6?

Who knows?
Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Tap your ID and sign out. Reboot your iPad.
Reboot 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.
Go back to the settings and sign back in again and see of it works now.
If it doesn't work, post back with some information that might help us help you. Describe what you are doing in some detail and it might let us better understand why this is happening.

Apple TV is not recognizing macbook pro

Apple TV is not recognizing macbook pro after it has been authorized and home sharing as been turned on; Airplay is also turned on. I had a 7 year old macbook from which I transferred data successfully to the new macbook pro. The old laptop has been de-authorized and the new laptop has been given a new name. The apple TV recognizes the new name but continues to say: “unable to connect with new macbook.”

Yes, we've had the airplay turned on so we can mirror the computer on the TV. Nothing else to it then? That will work for us.
Thanks.

Wifi password not recognized

hi,
I'm really going crazy with my iphone.
since a software update last week, my wifi connection at home is not working anymore.
I've tried everything described on the support side and things I found here in the forum, as
1. Tap Settings > WiFi > Other network
2. Enter the name of the network you are trying to log onto
3. Tap Security and tell the iPod what type of security the network is using
4. Tap Password and enter the network password
TRIED - PASSWORD NOT RECOGNIZED
If this still doesn't work, reset your network settings (tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network settings and try the steps above again once the iPhone restarts.
TRIED - PASSWORD NOT RECOGNIZED
my router at home is from linksys...
as I said, until last week, it worked properly without any problems...
now, the iphone only finds my wifi and asks for the password and after typing it I always geht the info, that network connection failed...
I have no ideas anymore what I can do and would highly appreciate your help

Have you experienced a problem connecting to any other wi-fi networks that you have access to since installing firmware update 3.0?
If not, have you checked Linksys's website to see if a firmware update is available for your wireless router model that you haven't installed?
Have you tried re-setting your wireless router? If not, disconnect any computer(s) from your wireless network - turn wi-fi access off or power your computer(s) off. Turn your wireless router off followed by turning your modem off. Wait a few minutes followed by reversing this. Power your modem back on allowing it to completely reset followed by powering your wireless router back on allowing it to completely reset with the modem. This one may be a long shot, but you never know.

Apple Store ID not recognized to update iPhoto on Mac Pro5,2 Yosemite.

Apple Store ID not recognized to update iPhoto app on Mac Pro5,2 Yosemite.

Which version of iPhoto do you have?
If you cannot update, for some reason, try to buy iPhoto. If you are lucky, it may show for free.
Backup your iPhoto library, if you do not have a current backup.
Uninstall iPhoto by deleting it from the Applications folder, but do not empty the Trash, so you can put iPhoto back, if need be.
Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your current AppleID.
Open the main page "Featured" of the App Store and search for iPhoto.
If iPhoto is listed as "Free", click the "Free" button to buy it with your current AppleID.
If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support to sort out the AppleID. Use this link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/

Password not recognized, even after reset

About three days ago, the Mac App store stopped recognizing my password. I tried a number of times, and subsequental was sent back to reset the AppleID via web/email. After resetting the password, I was able to use the (new) password successfully.
Today the (new) password stopped working for the App Store. After resetting the password, I was able to use the (new-new) password to log into various apple services, but *not* the Mac App store.
Any ideas?
Have a great day!

UPDATE: I entered my password again and the App store once again didn't recognize it. However, after trying it one more time I was able to log back in.
Good luck!
