Can't log into my new Ichat account

I can't Log into my ichat account. I have tried changing the account name and passwords in preferences........all it says is that my account name or server isn't valid. Previously it seemed to have retained a very long password that I didn't write.

  • I can't log into my mobile me account from my lap top.  Is it because of my operating system?  I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8?

    I can't log into my mobile me account from my lap top.  Is it because of my operating system?  I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8? Every time I try to enter my data in on the control panel I get an error that says; "Your MobileMe member name or password may be invalid. Please enter a different name or password."  I know the name and password is correct because I can log in via the Web.

    Apple discontinued it on June 30, 2012. Many of its services are now provided by iCloud; anything which connects specifically to MobileMe won't work.

  • I can't log into my apple ID account

    I can't log into my apple ID account. every time I try, I receive the message: We could not complete your itunes store request. The itunes store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.

    I am also experiencing this issue. I signed out to attempt fixing a sync problem, and now I can't sign back in. I receive the same message. I thought it might be related to work vs home network connections, so I tried the following:
    disconnected all network connections/reconnecting
    deleted wireless connection (only used Ethernet)
    cleared the DNS cache: sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
    Was still not able to sign in. Anyone have any other ideas to offer?

  • I can't log into my Apple ID account, I wish to change my email address, as I don't use the one that is already my Apple ID now, and it doesn't exist anymore, but It won't let me log in, it keeps saying username or password wrong, when I believe what

    HHow can I change my Apple ID,, it's not letting me log into my account as I don't use the current email address for that Apple ID anymore, that email address does not exist anymore, and I want to change it to a new one

    Where are you trying to log in? You should be able to change your ID at http://appleid.apple.com - can you log in there?
    Before you change your ID you should log out of the iTunes Store and on any devices which are logged into iCloud. Then once you've changed it you can log back in with the new ID. (Your iCloud synced data will disappear from the device when you do this but will reappear when you sign back in - give it time).
    If you are unable to sign into http://appleid.apple.com you will need to contact Support. Go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com . Click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. If you have any problems with that try this form: https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • Can't log on to new sub-account

    Like others here, I am unable to access my email account through the BT site. I set up a new sub-account 2 days ago and each time I try to log on, I get a message saying that there is difficulty accessing my Yahoo account (I thought I had BT account) and to continue by using the Yahoo site. When I go there, I get messages saying it doesn't recognise my address/password, which BT presumably did. If I follow the forgotten password route, it asks me a security question (where I was born) which wasn't one of the questions when I set up the new sub-account. Can anybody suggest a solution, please?

    Hi completebeginner,

  • I can't log into my Frontier email account from my Ipad mini.

    I can't log in to my Frontier email account from my ipad mini. It goes to mg.mail.yahoo.com but the page stays white.

    I've been with this service for nearly 2 years now and the problems just mount up. I had an account for close to 2 years on EE itself which suddenly does not exist. Advised by customer service agents to 'Sign up' for a new one. Try signing up, get to enter Bank account details - can only put in 4 digits. In what millenia were bank account numbers only 4 digits long? Why am I wasting an hour of my time fault finding for your developers? I should charge you £50 a hour for this waste of my time. Fire your project manager for this new website revamp, fire the developers and get someone in who can transition accounts from one system to another without destroying the whole user experience. Absolute disgrace, don't message me about Apps and how I should log in to my account for offers when I can't do any of that. I would advise anyone new to EE here to cancel your account within the 14 day grace period, you'll have neverending issues from fake data charges, extortionate roaming costs, somehow paying for data when on Wifi and much more.

  • Set up FireVault, now can't log into any of my accounts...

    I just received my Macbook today from my school, so there were no cds included or anything. I set my FireVault and the computer restarted. I tried logging into my account with the master password and the password I used for the account and I tried all the combinations I could think of just in case I made typos, but nothing I try works. When I try logging back into my account with the password I used in the beginning (before setting up FireVault), the screen goes blue for a few seconds, like it usually does when it logs in, but then it just returns back into the login screen. Please help before the 18th, thanks.

    You don't need to login with the master password. When you get to the log in screen, just log in as you would normally.

  • How can I log into my new (used) Ipad if the previous owner has the only log in information?  I purchased it through Glyde and have no information on the seller.

    How can I activate my new (used) Ipad if the previous owner has the only log in information?  I purchased it through Glyde and have no information on the seller.

    What you've run into is the activation lock. Previous owners are supposed to wipe their devices, and to do that they have to enter their apple ID's. If yours wasn't wiped then it was a careless owner, or the dark side is that whomever sold it, it wasn't theirs to sell.
    Regardless, what Deggie says is your only recourse. Get your money back or own an unusable brick.

  • My keyboard is writing in Greek? even though the settings and fonts say it's writing in standard Apple font? I can't log into any of my accounts, because even though I type the password correctly, the keys are writing and beings submitted in Greek...HELP.

    My keyboard went nuts...I got on my MacBook today after not using it for about 24 hours, and the fonts all changed to like Greek. No matter where I am at (web browser, word document, etc). I even went into settings and fonts, and it says it is using Arial or some other standard "Apple" font, but the keys continue to write in Greek.
    It gets worse-I logged out thinking I just needed to reboot...but now I cannot get back in because it's still not writing correctly. What's even weired (and I have no idea if this is related or not) but my Capslock Key and my Delete key have like switched roles...ALSO, when I press down the "A" key (as there is an "A" in my password) the keyboard writes it 3 times...even though I only hit it once. SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE. I am a full-time student and need my computer for homework.
    I'm locked out AND if I do get in, the font it still messed up as well as the Delete and Capslock keys...

    It sounds to me like your keyboard has been damaged and needs to be repaired or replaced.  Can you try an external keyboard?

  • I can't log into my iCloud keychain due to the fact I lost my password?

    I Can't log into my iCloud keychain account due to lost password? Every time I want to change it will change my Apple ID password. I put my password for my Apple ID in for iCloud keychain and it won't work? Any help would be great

    Hi
    https://appleid.apple.com/
    and
    https://www.icloud.com
    are two different accounts
    Therefore you should still use your "old" (existing) iCloud mail address - you cannot change the iCloud mail address.
    However you could add an alias instead to you iCloud account.

  • Can't log into new accounts created under 10.4.11

    Hello,
    I normally only have my main admin user account but I have created a couple dummy accounts under 10.4.10 (and/or earlier) for short term use and have since deleted them.
    This morning I installed the 10.4.11 update. Later I decided I needed to create another user account for a project. I can create user accounts just fine but when I attempt to log into those accounts, it will not accept the password (or even null password) for the new accounts. It does not matter if the user is admin or not. I have fast user switching disabled.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

    I temporarily enabled fast user switching and it made no difference.
    Can someone else that has updated to 10.4.11 try to create a new user account and then log into the account just for giggles? If you have the same problem, good, in that we confirmed something with the update is hosed.
    If you ARE able to create and then successfully log into a new account under 10.4.11 then I know to look elsewhere for my solution.

  • I can't log into my iTunes account. I logger out a few days ago to trouble shoot because I was trying to redeem some iTunes cards but when i pressed redeem nothing happened. Now when i press sign in and then choose existing Apple ID, nothing happens

    I can't log into my iTunes account on my iPhone 5s. I logged out a few days ago to trouble shoot because I was trying to redeem some iTunes cards but when i pressed redeem nothing happened. I then tried to log back in immediately afterwards. I was unable to do so. After clicking "sign in" at the bottom of the apps main page, it brought up another menu where I clicked "Choose existing Apple ID". After pressing this the menu disappeared and nothing happened. I tried this multiple times and received the same result each time. I tried the other available option of creating a new AP ID to log in with and that one worked perfectly fine. I am clueless as to why the log in for me is either not able to load or just completely blocking me from getting back into my iTunes account on my phone. Not only can I not listen to the music I currently have, but I cannot log in to purchase the new music that I wanted to with my unused iTunes gift cards

    I have the same problem too and tried alot of things like time zone , restarting or changing DNS of wifi connection to 8.8.8.8 still nothing happens .. !!

  • Can't log into iTunes store account

    So I can no longer log into my iTunes store account. When I try to log in, I get an error message in red letters saying:
    FieldName: null. java.lang.Exception
    I have tried resetting my password mutliple times with no luck. I can log into my Apple Store account, I can log into the forums (obviously since I am able to post on these forums), yet iTunes will not let me log in.
    Anybody else experience this as well or know how to fix it? Thanks in advance for your help

    I am experiencing the same exact problem you are. What gives? I never messed around with my login information and I've always gotten in before. But now I can't.
    I've also done the password reset, and still it won't let me log in with the new password.
    This is the same red error message I get as well:
    FieldName: null. java.lang.Exception
    Does anybody know what the problem is and how to fix it? Thanks.
