Can't connect to WPA protected wifi. Prompt says choose a certificate OR enter account name and password? Huh
I cannot connect to wifi using my MacBook, my phone and Xbox work but there is no prompt for the WPA password and when I go to the diagnostics page it prompts me to choose a certificate or enter an account name and password? What account name are they referring to? I have entered everything I could think of; the actual connection name and password, the Internet provider login email, my MacBook account name as password... What the heck. After I try, it says connecting for awhile, then fails...
Select the network from the Airport icon drop down in the menu. Then put in the password.

The power went out and when it returned the network name and password was lost. I can see the network in my connections and connect to it. How do I get it back to the orginal name and password? I have an HP laptop.
Chances are, there was a signficant power surge or voltage fluctuation just before the power went out. This type of thing can cause the AirPort Extreme to reset back to default settings.
If this occurs, your only option is re-configure the device again, just as you did originally.
In order to improve your chances this next time this happens, (especially if you live in an area where thunderstorms are severe), a good quality surge suppressor / voltage limiting power strip will really help, and may save you the entire device or a nearby computer next time something like this occurs. -
Hi, I'm Puthyrath. I have a problem on my iPad 4 wifi-3G about personal hotspot. I entered apn, username and password correctly, but when I leave this page, it didn't save, all fields become blank. Can anyone help me?
Update to above question:
Hello All,
To anyone with the same problem described above, on THEIR iPad (if it is running iOS 7.0.2):
Go to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; DELETE your *******@btinternet.com e-mail account, that you originally set up either using 'Other', or the 'BT' option which I am sure was in the list previous to the iOS 7 update.
Then ADD a NEW account choosing YAHOO from the list of options. DO NOT USE 'OTHER'.
Enter the correct details just as you (almost certainly) had already done in your previous attempts using 'other'.
When you see the 'verifying......' and 'the blue ticks' you should be able to exit settings and open your mail app and then receive all your 'old' e-mails again, AND be able to SEND as well.
All my 'old' e-mails, were NOT found in the 'old e-mail' folder though. THEY are still in my inbox.
So this fix worked for me.
After I deleted my account from 'OTHER' and put it in Yahoo, I like other people also ended up with more folders.
I hope this works for you on YOUR Apple devices.

I can no longer make my AOL e mail work with Mac Mail on all my devices. When I try to set up the account and put in the correct aol account and password I get the message "Unable to verify account name or password". I know the account name and password is correct as I can open the AOL e mail page on Safari. I have changed the password, and it still does not work. AOL tech support has been no help. AOL email worked for years but last week due to suspected spam activity AOL locked my AOL account. I got that straightened out but now i cannot set it up on any of my devices: Macbook Air, Ipad, I pad mini and iPhone 6 without that message. I took everything to Apple store and everything is set up correctly on my devices. AOL tech support is no help and keeps giving me different solutions and answers, none of which has worked. Any solutions out there? All my Apple Software is up to date on all my devices
Delete your Gmail account from the Mail/Contacts/Calendars settings page, and then add it back in using the new Gmail password.

I have connected a new Time Capsule to a DSL modem using an ethernet cable . The modem is working fine and connected fine. But the Time Capsule doesnt seem to be talking to the modem. If I click the internet Icon in Airport Utility it shows Disconnected.If I click the Time Capsule icon and go to the internet tab it shows Connect using PPPoE. Is that what it should be? In the box below there is place for an account name and password. DO I need to filll these out and if so what do I put there--information about the Time Capsule of informationabout the Modem? And where do I find the information.
Or am I completely on the wrong track.Thanks. The modem is a Speedtouch ST585 v6. How do I know whether it is in adsl bridge? Also this is a modem-***-router. Does that make a difference?
If you did not put it in bridge then it is not in bridge..
Connect a computer directly to the modem.. open the browser to either 192.168.1.254 or 10.0.0.138 (if neither of those work you will have to check the IP address your ISP has set).
BTW who is your ISP and do they allow PPPoE.. for instance most ISP in UK do not use pppoe so you have no choice but to run the 585 as a router. In which case bridge the TC
Anyway.. open the setup configuration in the Thomson and select a template that says bridge.. run through the wizard and it will then bridge the modem.
And I am using Airport Utility 6.0. How do I get the earlier version?
By reading the site link I just gave you.. downloading the utility and running it on your computer. Or simply google to 5.6 lion airport utility... that is the way I find things when I don't have the link memorised.
Finally, AIrport Utility shows a number in a red dot next to the time capsule icon, currently 2. What is that for? What does it tell us?
Firstly download the useful utility.. but the dots tell you something is wrong and preventing the TC from working.. if you open the utility it should tell you what the errors mean.. I cannot tell you what they are, but it is likely to be no internet connection and pppoe has failed. -
I can't get my movies and tv shows on iPad now that I have added iCloud. The problem is that my iTunes account has different name and password from my mobile me account. Can I change my iTunes account name and password so that they will transfer to my iPad with the mobile me / iCloud account? I need to figure out how to make the two accounts one or iCloud has to be able to accept my iTunes account with years of music and movies.
Hunter of Sock Monsters thanks...I did follow your advise. I went to the iforgot site and tried answering the secret questions twice. I got the "wrong answer", so the next time I asked for an email authentication. I am still waiting. I don't know what the usual time for waiting normally is. I am still waiting for an email reply from three days ago. I'm not going to hold my breath. My ipad is out of warranty but I may have to beg for help from support? I'll wait awhile longer. Maybe there is another thing someone could come up with. I appreciate your fast reply Hunter.

Enter your name and password for the server when trying to connect PC and Mac?
I'm trying to connect my iMac and my WIndows tablet (got it for free) together through my home network. I open iPhoto, then "Import to Library" ; the connection fails and when I click on "Connect as" up pops this box asking me to "enter your name and password for the server -computer name here-". HELP!! Where do I find the password? I've tried everything possible and no go.

MacBook Pro Can't connect to WPA protected network
Just got my new MBP this week. I am in love with it but I have this problem, I can't connect to WPA network, every time I try to connect and type the WPA password it take time and then comes back with "There was an error joining the AirPort network "Intersys"
I removed the WPA from the router and try to connect and it work fine. Change to WPA and no connections.
any suggestions? Thanks in advanceI was actually logging into the forums for this exact reason.
I bought a new router ( Linksys http://tinyurl.com/fkrt9 )last night and wanted to set up WPA/WPA2 encryption on it.
My choices after that we AES and TKIP. I know more about AES so I selected that and set up my key.
Well after that I got the same error that you got. SO I went back and selected TKIP instead and I've been able to conenct, I'm also using 64 character key.
I would still like to use AES, but for now I'm happy with TKIP.

Cannot connect to wpa protected wifi using netcfg
This is the setting in networkmanager's nm-applet and it connects flawlessly. http://i.imgur.com/5VuL6.png
I tried doing the same configuration in netcfg and this is my config file.
CONNECTION='wireless'
INTERFACE=wlan0
SECURITY='wpa-configsection'
ESSID="my essid"
IP='dhcp'
CONFIGSECTION='
ssid="essid"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
eap=PEAP
group=CCMP
pairwise=CCMP
identity="foobar"
password="pass"
priority=1
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
I killed wpa_supplient & started it with option to log to a file by
wpa_supplicant -u -f /var/log/wpa.log -B
Now, just to check whether wpa_supplient is still working perfectly, I restarted networkmanager and checked whether I was able to connect to the wifi & I was able to do it.
I stopped the networkmanager & ran "netcfg up mywifi" & I got nothing in the logfile of wpa_supplient & got a simple message saying "WPA Authentication/Association Failed"..
If I switch on debugging, I get
[root@archlinux shadyabhi]# NETCFG_DEBUG="yes" netcfg up dwifi

i have an old icloud account and i want to access it on my iphone
As posted earlier, you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and clicking on the Find your Apple ID on the bottom right. If you are able to find the ID, you can then reset the password here:https://iforgot.apple.com/, allowing you to access your iCloud account again.

Why Can't CardDav and CalDav verify my account name and password?
No matter what I do, CardDav and CalDav will not communicate after setting them up in Contact and Calendar. The password and user name are correct.
In fact, I pinged the server from the terminal and the packets went through. But it still will not work.
Is this a known bug?
I do show two hosts. One is :host and the other :local. Could this be causing a conflict? I have it set up to use the :local server.
TedI just noticed this when I disabled and then reinabled CardDav upon opening Contacts.
"The operation couldn’t be completed. (CoreDAVHTTPStatusErrorDomain error 500.)"
CalDav is syncing correctly and does not report this error. But it still asks for my password when selcting CalDav in System Preferences. Weird.
