Changed Apple ID now mobile phone won't accept the password

I changed my Apple ID using my laptop. I have synched my phone since then, but somehow my phone now won't accept my password. I'm trying to download an app and it brings up the old apple ID and then says my password was entered incorrectly. My password is not incorrect and I am able to get into my apple account via my laptop. What can I do?

On your Phone sign Out of your Account... close All open Apps.. and Perform a Reset...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
Now try it...

You made a purchase and exhausted the credit on your card before it processed. All purchases are final. Contact iTunes Store support. You need to settle up before you can purchase or download anything else.

Having trouble with international sim. Purchased phone unlocked, no contract from Apple store in Australia. Living in Denmark now and phone won't accept Danish sims. Guys in phone shop say phone is actually locked. Any hints would be welcome.

Purchased phone (3GS) unlocked, outright so no contract from Apple store in Australia.
Living in Denmark now and phone won't accept Danish sims. Guys in phone shop say phone is actually locked and he doesn't understand how it could be if it was supposed to be off contract. Software updates have been done regularly. They think that it shouldn't come up "connect to iTunes" when the Danish sim is installed.
Any hints would be welcome.

Hi Peter
Yes - it was from a proper Apple Store.
I only purchased the unit - no special requests and then went to O2 and hooked up with a scolling monthly sim.
I used that sim for about 6 months and then moved out here. I took on two PAYG sims, one for Qatar and one for UAE but neither are accepted.
When connect to my mbp, the phone screen shows the iphone connect cable and iTunes picks it up. The message then says " must insert original sim to register" My point - the original sim, was completely independant from the phone but I cant get past this point to do anything further.
Any thoughts?

FaceTime won't accept the password which I wrote down some time ago and doesn't provide a "forgot your password" option. And when I try to create a new account it tells me that my email is already registered. What can I do to revise my password?

Email send/receive suddenly doesn't work ; can't change email settings as BB phone won't accept valid username and password -- what to do?

email send/receive suddenly doesn't work (as of September 24th); I can't change email settings (one suggestion from tech) as BB phone won't accept *valid* username and password -- what to do?
I understand from a support note that if I keep trying my password/username combination, my BB will eventually delete all data!
I can't understand this. I'm completely lost now. I can't remember what I've done or tried to do. A plethora of usernames and passwords is swimming in my head.
Thanks for any hints. I have always loved this BB Bold and have never had any trouble with it.

But the real question is why for the past year did the passwords work and then all of the sudden after this anomaly the disk password doesn't work? I'm not 100% sure of what my configuration was, but I know that most of the time it required one password -- supervisor, and occasionally it asked for 2 -- disk password as well I believe. This may have been related to the Password on Restart setting I think -- asking for the disk password on cold vs. warm boot. But I know both were exactly the same. But after this incident only the Supervisor password worked.

the new Ipod touch 5 will not accept the password that is on the router for my wifi. what do I do? there don't seem to be any options and I cannot connect to our Wifi in our home

I agree with the Thomas, in that I think you have mucked up your settings in the AOL account. Your username should be something like - [email protected] Your password is whatever you use as the password.
You could try deleting the account and start over again. Here is a link to a "how to set up AOL email " on the iPad. It is 4 or 5 step process and just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the correct fields in the set up. Among my 4 email accounts on my iPad, I have 2 AOL accounts. I have no problems at all and it was really very easy to set up. There is no reason why AOL email should not work on your iPad.
To repeat and emphasize - Just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the appropriate fields as I think that's where you are making your mistakes.
If I had my choice, I would probably chuck the AOL accounts as well, but I have all the spam filters set as high as I can on the server, and it has cut down tremendously on the spam. Unfortunately - we set up AOL accounts at my workplace years ago and I really hesitate to change them now, so I continue on with these, but like I said, they work fine and they were very easy to set up.

I configured my iPad2 mail with my current settings. Now my Apple Mail on my Macbook Pro won't accept the password, which I did NOT change. I am running latest Snow Leopard on the Macbook. ANy help?

After configuring my Ipad2 to accept mail at my .me account, I can no longer get my MacBook pro Apple Mail to accept the passwrod.
I did not chnage the password when configuring iPad2 and it works perfectly.
Using 10.6.8 and iPad is running most current update.

Since I upgraded the hardware myself - the warranty that covers the computer is basically nulled.
Warranty is not made void by upgrading memory or storage. If you have AppleCare then you should be fine.
Disk Utility is powerful, but not the most powerful tool out there. There might be other applications (sometimes expensive) that can fix the volume. If your Windows partition works but not the Mac partiiton that leads me to believe the issue is solvable.
Can you read the Mac files from your Windows partition?

googlemail.com could be the problem...
Try using your gmail.com login:
Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendar -> Select your mail account -> Account Info
under username change it from [email protected] to [email protected] and see if you have better luck.
you can leave your email address set to the @googlemail domain if you like.

How do you update apps that where purchased using different iTunes accounts? I get a cannot connect to iTunes message and it won't accept the password even after you change it.

Both my iPad and iPhone have the same problem. I have purchased apps with three different accounts. I understand I will need to use the original acct to do the update but every time it asks for the password I put it in and get a message that I cannot connect to iTunes store. I have even had the password reset and it still will not connect on the upgrade. But I can sign in with that account and purchase new apps i am loading a free one now just to make sure. So what is that about? Please do not tell me I have to also use the original password! We have reset them so many times that there is no way to remember the original one used at time of purchase a year and 1/2 ago. Please help. I have also upgraded to the iCloud thinking this would solve the problem but it still exists.

I use only one Apple ID and only one ID. I did have to change the password at one point but I had no issues at all with updating apps after I changed the password.
If you can download new apps with the ID that you changed the password for, I would think that you will be able to update apps associated with that ID as well.
Did you try restarting the iPad after signing out of the one account and then sign in to the other account/accounts?

My new iMac had the old data transferred in-store but now it won't accept the password on the first screen. How can I reset this? I can't get past the first screen as a result.

I cannot get past the initial screen on my new iMac. Data was transferred from my old computer so when I turned it on It automatically had my name in the window and asked for the password, but none of my old passwords seem to be accepted. How can I fix this?? It's a new IMac with osx.

Which password isn't working? The one to access the iPad or the one to get your hotmail?
If hot mail, you go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars and edit your hot mail account. Of if it won't edit, delete it off the iPad, then re-add it with the new password.

My imac won't accept the password at startup page?

My Imac is frozen on startup page. It won't let me type in the password. I've tried shutting down, but still doesn't work. any suggestions? Thank you.

Boot in safe mode (shift key down at startup) and try again. Be aware that, if you're using a trackpad or Magic Mouse, tap-to-click does not work in the login dialog.

I can't open my LinkedIn Profile. It won't accept the password even when reset

Can't access my LinkedIn account with my normal username and password. I was wondering if anyone else has this problem?

Works for me at the moment (Firefox 4 on Windows 7).
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
1. Clear Firefox's Cache
Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage: "Clear Now"
2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here (while viewing a page on linkedin.com)
right-click the page, choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Does that help?
