  • ICloud keeps saying username and password incorrect.

    One minute fine, now all my devices have the same issue. Cannot Get Mail and then asking for password. Anyone else? Only way to retrieve email is online and the password works. ugh

    Same problem here.  I just switched to iCloud from MobileMe this weekend and it's been an absolute nightmare.  MobileMe always worked fine.  Here is what my problems have been so far.
    1) After switch to iCloud - Mail.App on Lion worked fine, iPad and iPhone worked fine.  Outlook 2010 on Win 7 refused to connect, kept asking me for user name and password.  Read like 100 articles of people with same problems.  Checked server settings, checked SSL setting, blah blah..  Nothing worked..  Finally, tried the suggestion of setting a new password.  Sweet, that worked!!  All was well again.
    2) Fast forward a day - Outlook 2010 on Win 7 refuses to connect again.  iPad, iPhone work, Mail.App gave same error as Outlook once, re-entered password, all was well.  I was able to log into iCloud.com and see mail as well.  Again, reset my password after hours of screwing with it.  All was working again.
    3) Last night, checked my mail from my iPhone.  )(&$)(&@$)(&!#, Username or password incorrect.  WRONG..  Go into settings, set my password, it comes back with the three checks for validating the password, it can see my storage, everything else iClould related works just fine.  Open mail, bad username or password.
    4) Woke up this morning, same problem still.  Now, if I go to iCloud.com and log in, I get a failure to open mail if I try to use mail, just get an error that mail has failed to load and do I want to report it to Apple.  Still gives same  error on iPhone.  Yet, get this..  Works just fine in Outlook 2010.  Can send and receive mail no problem.  I tried deleting my account on the phone and readding it, turning mail off and on.  Everything works except mail still.
    HELP!!!!!   This blows...

    I have an ipad air and I'm trying to set up a telus email on it but it won't work. I keep getting a message saying username or password for IMAP is incorrect...please help!

    This has nothing to do with iPhoto. When I have this type of problem I call tech support for my email service. They probably are the only source of the correct settings

  • Cannot set up my email accounts, keep saying "username or password" is not correct, please help!!!!!!!!

    I have been using THUNDERBIRD for more than 10 years, changed and installed into many desktops and laptops. But this time, after I installed in my new desktop WIN8, I cannot set up any of my IMAP accounts. They are not gmail/yahoo. They are my business emails. But the settings I have been using is the same and not changed, tried uninstall, reinstall, I'm copying the exact settings that I have on my laptop (which is working perfectly fine). It kept saying "username or password is wrong"!!! My username is the full email address which I put it correctly. The port is the same port I used on the other computers. I just don't understand why is this happening...my laptop is using WIN8 as well...
    I can install and use with MAILBIRD, so the setting are all correct. But I just can't set any of my 5 accounts (same domain) up on this THUNDERBIRD this time...it's really frustrating.
    Can anyone help please??? Thanks in advance!

    I interesting note:
    MAILBIRD uses port 993 for incoming mail but THUNDERBIRD uses port 143
    When uses 143, it kept " checking capabilities...."
    then I changed to port 993 (like in MAILBIRD), it said "connected to.....mail," but then "timed out"
    Any idea please???? help....extremely frustrated...

  • Iphone 4 "cannot get mail" as user name or password incorrect.

    I have an iphone 4 and it has stopped updating mail.  Three days ago I incorrectly typed in my mobile me password and had to reset it.  I have updated my mac account details for my mobile me account on my phone but I keep getting "cannot get mail" as user name or password for.mac account is incorrect.  Im not sure what to do and this is very frustrating as Im sure it is something very simple!  Any help gratefully appreciated. 

    Did you try to delete the MobileMe account on the phone and set it up again after that?
    You can also try to replace the account info on the phone during the next sync, if you select this option in the info pane, Advanced Section, with your phone connected to iTunes.

  • Cannot get mail-the gmail username or password is incorrect

    What does it mean when my iPad cannot get mail?

    It means that there is an error in your server settings, specifically the username or password is incorrect.
    Preferences > Accounts > Google Account Settings > Re-enter proper account name and password. 
    Are you using two-step verification for gmail? If so, see this thread:

  • Multiple iCal icloud errors. One saying username and password incorrect the other Server 500 error when removing event

    Good day all
    One of my clients is having intermitting issues with her iCal on her Macbook. Her iCal is connected to her iCloud account along with her contacts, she access the iCloud data via her iPhone and her iPad.
    The syncing between her devices with the iCloud gives her no issues when it comes to her contacts but her iCloud on her Macbook is causing a lot of grief. She can accept and add iCal events most of the time but every now and then she gets the error "iCal can't log into your iCloud account becasue your password may be incorrect. The server did not recognize your username or password for the account iCloud. Make sure you enter them correctly". Here is a picture of the error.
    I can confirm her username and password is correct by clicking ok to the error and making an event in the calander or making a new contact in her contacts and confirm on icloud.com that the new additions did make it to the iCloud.
    On top of the above error she also gets the following error intermittently (seems to happen the most when she attempts to remove a calander item). The error is "The server responded with an error. The request for "Meeting name" in "category" in account iCloud failed. The server responded with 500 to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation. Stay offline/Revert to Server/Go Online" once more below is a picture
    Any help on this subject would be greatly appreshated
    Thanks

  • 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

  • After the update, I no longer get email.  Says the network password has changed.  Sign in failure.  Funny, nothing has changed on my iPad or computer.  This is my second S5 because of updates messing up my email.  I am over it.  Sorry I switched from AT

    I am tired of updates messing up my email account.  I had to have my phone replaced because of the Samsung update, now I don't have email again because of the Verizon update.

    Hi Jonigh
    I'm so sorry to hear of the issues you are having with your email account on your device. What type of email account do you have? Have you tried removing and readding the email acct?

    My email keeps saying my password is incorrect. I have not been able to receive or send email for days now!

    Some servers have case sensitive passwords, so that may be one issue. Is your email MS Exchange, Gmail, Yahoo or ????

    Sometimes, you have to go deeper into the settings and check the outgoing mail server setting as well, especially, if you cannot send mail.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional

  • I cant get into itunes producer keep getting an error my username and password is incorrect. i have made a new one all good still same error any ideas?

    I cant get into itunes producer keep getting an error my username and password is incorrect. i have made a new one all good still same error any ideas?

    I'm having a very similar problem.
    I'm based in the U.K. and am trying to publish an iBook through the iTunes bookstore. I have made my book in iBooks author 2.0. My iTunes is up to date.
    When I try and publish the iBook I have passed and ticked the Pre Publish Check; and the Create Account, but when I try and download iTunes Producer through iTunes Connect I'm told "Your Apple ID does not have permission to access iTunes Content."
    When I try and re-set my iTunes Store account I'm told "The iTunes Store Account has already applied to distribute content on the iBookstore." Of course it has I just did that.
    If I try and sign in to iTunes Connect through the Publishing pane I'm told "Your ID or Password was entered incorrectly." Even though I've just used it to sign into iTunes (and here), so my password and Apple ID work fine elsewhere.
    Is my access to the iTunes Connect being delayed while my submission is processed, i.e. the processing of my tax and account details? Or am I stuck in a loop?
    If this is still processing (I started this 20 hours ago) I assume that I have to submit the book itself when I can download iTunes Producer at a later date, as I haven't submitted the book yet?
    I emailed the problem to iTunes Store and was refered to [email protected], only for them to say they don't read or reply to emails sent to that address??????
    I'm not sure which part of the process I've reached - if any. I feel I'm in limbo. I have an iBook ready to go - but where is Apple?
    Any help would be most welcome.
