Can't remember password for Mail

I want to be able to use my mac.com account, but I don't remember the password. I set the account up years ago and have just never used it. Thanks for the help!

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

"Mail" can't remember password for cloud mail

In preparation for the iCloud move on July 1, 2012, I updated to latest version of OS X 10.7, and had everything working. As of July 1 I get:
Enter Password for Account "MobileMe"
The iCloud IMAP server "p99-imap.mail.me.com" rejected the password for user myusername
Enter your password again or cancel
This box comes up for every incoming message to my mac.com/me.com address. I have entered my password, and told it to remember the password in the keychain, repeatedly, but the dialog box keeps coming up. My password was just changed and meets or exceeds Apple security rrequirements.
I can access my mail by using a browser through icloud.com. The Mail program on my iMac can reach all my non-cloud mail without trouble.
My first thought was that I need to direct my mail program to another server, but I can't find any reference to such a change being needed or an address for such a new server. I get way too much mail on that account to make entering my password for every message practical.
To make it more confusing, my wife's iMac is getting her mac.com/me.com messages without any trouble, and they seem to be set up identically.
Does anyone have ideas as to how I can adapt to whatever changed on July 1?

p99-imap.mail.me.com
Hmmm, Apple does oen that, but I use imap.mail.me.com
Do you have an old MobileMe server or 2 still in Mail?
See if this helps...
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password...

If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

Can't remember password for password protected document

I can't remember the password I generated for a pages document. Is there anyway to unlock document with administrative password? PLEASE HELP!

There exist software that will allow you to unlock it. I know word has some free software that does that you can find online. I am not sure about pages. In the future, make sure you write every password you ever use to anything in a document. If you aren't comfortable with this document being on your computer, save it to a thumb drive or SD card. Store this card somewhere safe where no one will ever touch it.

Can't remember password for wifi

Sorry, that's not a Firefox support issue. It has to do with your router.

I can't remember password for my phone

I have created a password for my firefox os but I forgot it. How can I restore the password to get my phone working again.
Thank you
J

What phone do you have? It may be recoverable if it runs Firefox OS 2.0.
Otherwise, I'm afraid that resetting your phone is the only option. You should not lose data stored on your SIM card or microSD card if you do that, though.

Recently changed my password for mail, can still read my mail, but the drop down keeps appearing, asking for my password and saying it's incorrect. Totally confused.

I Recently changed the password for mail, on iMac. I can still read my mail, but the drop down keeps appearing, asking for my password, then telling me it's incorrect. Totally confused.

If your password is accepted, and Mail connects to the account, but you're prompted for the password repeatedly, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Note: these steps don't apply if the server rejects the password. That's a different problem.
Step 1
When prompted for the password, check the box marked Remember this password in my keychain.
Step 2
Check that the keychain is working.
Step 3
Check that the default keychain is unlocked.

I can't get rid of the 'Remember password for..' box (top left)

When I login to a website (2 sites so far, including this one) and the Remember password box pops up, I can't get rid of it. I click the x it doesn't close..I click 'not now'..'never remember password for this site'..nothing..it wont disappear..If I minimize the window it can disappear until I move the mouse towards the top of the window and it comes back..any ideas?..bug maybe?

Sorry, the place I need to delete my account is in system. I no longer have an account with Facebook, my 14 days are gone. Yet I can not delete a Facebook address from my account. Will let me remove my real email, but not facebooks.

Can you have different passwords for mail account and ICloud?

Can you have different passwords for mail account and ICloud?

Yes - you want to go under Notifications, Mail. Set each acct the way you want.

I can't turn off "Remember passwords for sites." It keeps coming back on.

No matter how many times I uncheck "Remember passwords for sites" it keeps coming back on.

This issue can be caused by an extension.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

Since I upgraded memory, I can't retrieve/send Mail. Also can't remember password. Need HELP!!

Upgrading to firefox 5 and updating my plug-ins helped a bit. Frog is less 'sticky' now, but it's not solved the problem. Java needs to be up to speed or the frog goes into stasis....

The "remember passwords for sites" box is graytone and I cannot click on it. How can I save password?

Firefox... Using Windows 7 -- Tools --> Options --> Security Cannot click on "Remember Passwords for Sites", only on create Master Password. What might be wrong? Thank you

hello dhannay, do you use a norton security product by any chance? it might interfere with the firefox password management...
http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Toolbar-Norton-Identity/NIS-2013-Norton-Toolbar-Unselects-Firefox-Remember-Passwords/td-p/836598
otherwise you could try to reset firefox and see if this makes a difference (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords): [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]

How do I set the newest version of Firefox to remember passwords for websites ?

Well, ... let me restate that. I think my current version DID remember passwords for me but now it doesn't . I access the options and go to privacy and security but it doesn't highlight to allow me to click on " remember passwords........................ " How can I fix this ?

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Private+Browsing
*Tools > Options > Privacy: Use custom settings for history
*Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
You can also check that you aren't starting Firefox with a -private command line switch.
*https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Command_Line_Options
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode

How do I save the password for a site for which I have chosen the "never remember password for this site" option?

The first time you enter a password for a site a box pops up under the address bar that has a picture of a key and then the question: "Remember this password?". In the drop box, I chose the option "Never Remember Password for This Site". I can't figure out how to change it so that the password IS remembered.

It sounds like the printer is still trying to retain the old network information.
Try a Hard Reset:
* Unplug printer while unit is turned on
* Unplug other end of power cord from the direct wall outlet
* Wait 30 seconds
* Plug unit back up for power
Reset Network information to Default:
* Press the Wrench/Setup menu button in the top right of the touch display of the printer
* Select the Wireless menu option
* Scroll down to Restore Network Defaults
After restoring the defaults, then try running the Wireless Setup Wizard. Let me know if the unit still does not retain the information.
