Email continually asking for password

Using Eudora (sure love this proggie and wish someone wold pick-up development on it) at work (a separate business verizon account) and Apple Mail on my Macs I am recently having to repeatedly enter my Password. Using the same programs I get no such demands from my .Mac account.Verizon doesn't know from Eudora and suggest I reinstall the software. This is happening at work n 6 different machines
Any ideas? or anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks! 

Try re-entering the name of the POP server in your Eudora program. Also look in the task status window (make sure it is displayed), and see if there is anything there. For certain types of statuses returned by the email server, the response by Eudora is to ask you to re-enter the password. It is probably related to something Verizon did on their end.
Also make sure the settings in Eudora are correct for your Verizon email account, they get SNAFU'd occaisonally.

  • Mail continually asks for Password, Safari doesn't accept

    I update today to Safari Version 5.0.2 (5533.18.5). After I did this I have not been able to access my university e-mail either through Mail or a web based access in Safari. Mail continually asks for my password, and Safari doesn't accept it. All my mail settings are correct. Firefox will not allow me to access e-mail through the web either.
    I am desperate, can someone help me?

    Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details.

  • HT204085 Is anyone having problems with iCloud continually asking for passwords for different items in iCloud?

    My iMac asks for password to use calendar agent, iMessage, Calendar agent, etc., about every 15 minutes.  Is there a cure to stop this? I have tried many things and nothing has worked.

  • Snow leapord continually asks for password for routine tasks

    how do I stop snow leopard from asking for password to change folder names?

    In the Finder, select the icon of your home folder in the sidebar on the left, and choose "Get Info" from the File menu. In the Sharing & Permissions section of the info window, you should see your user name and "Read & Write." If that's so, click the lock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your administrator name and password when prompted. Then open the action menu (with a gear icon) at the bottom of the window, and choose "Apply to enclosed items." Close the window and try your action again.

  • Email now asks for password every time I try to access it.  Getting very annoying

    All of a sudden I have to enter my email passwords each time I try to access my account.  I check the box that says save in Keychain access and it makes no difference.  Sometimes it asks for my password 3 or 4 times.

    you may want to try repairing your keychain and see if that resolves the issue, the following article tells how to do this:

  • Firefox continues asking for password

    Hi. I always used firefox to access work internal web pages (they are not public and with username and passwrd). Never had a problem in that sense. Since few days it continue to ask me for the password again and again even if it is memorized (infact if I continue to click ok... it goes). Seem is asking the password of every resorce is server (images, html, css and so on). This is very strange since I've tried with Chrome and no problem..so should be a FF problem for sure. I've tried to reboot FF without any plugins but same behaviour. I've also tried to clean the memorized username and passowr and reinsert it... nothing. Any idea how to soleve the problem? I've tried to search over the forum but I've found only "proxy" related questions and is not my case.
    if I can find a fix I have to switch to chrome forever since I use it for working...and I can't pass 1/4 of my time cliking on ok ;-)

    I don't know if this applies to your situation:

  • Email Keeps Asking for Password on Mac Mail

    Mac Mail very often asks for the password on my Verizon email accounts (only). When I go into Mail preferences often the password has been erased. I have also changed the authentication settings from APOP to POP.
    Is this a port issue? My port is still 110.

    Its an issue that is specific to the keychain access and mac mail.
    Open /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access and from Keychain Access menu item and run First Aid. Plus find the saved password entry that Mail keeps asking you for.
    Then run Mail again and tell it to save the password again to see if it sticks.

  • Just installed ios5 and now email keeps asking for password

    Why does one of my email accts keep asking for a password when I've already added one? Tried everything
    Just installed ios5.

    You have two passwords to contend with (more than likely).  Your incoming and your outgoing.
    In Settings, go to Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars/Select Your Account/Look for Outgoing Mail Server and review the settings there.  9.9 times out of 10, this is your internet provider.
    Hope this helps.

  • Evolution continuously asking for passwords

    So after a recent update (I fail to do it often, becuase something breaks EVERY time i update anything), evolution has decided to freak out and not remember passwords at all. 
    Current version: 2.8.1
    I have two accounts I check, used to be three, but one I hardly use and this thing is driivng me nuts, so I disabled it.  Anyway, when I start Evolution, it asks for both the password to my IMAP account and my gmail account (via POP3).  Every time, the "save password" button is checked.  For the duration of Evolution being open, it no longer prompts me for my IMAP password, but it asks for my gmail POP3 one every 10 minutes when it checks it.  The dialog it pops up steals focus away from whatever I'm doing, and goes on top, extremely annoying.
    This may or may not be related to a dbus issue, during this same upgrade I had a lot of applications stop working properly.  As a solution, I made it so my GDM session does a dbus-launch ~/.xsession instead of just execing ~/.xsession.  This fixed issues with gnome-volume-manager and gnome-settings-daemon.  btw, I don't run gnome, just those apps with openbox.
    Any thoughts?

    Ok, thanks for the pointer.  That got me started on a solution.  I do not run GNOME as a DE, just portions of it with my openbox setup.  I added the following lines to my ~/.xsession:
    export `gnome-keyring-daemon`
    and at the bottom:
    ~/scripts/stop-gnome-keyring.sh
    which contains:
    #!/bin/sh
    if [ -n "$GNOME_KEYRING_PID" ]; then
    echo killing gnome-keyring-daemon $GNOME_KEYRING_PID
    kill $GNOME_KEYRING_PID
    fi
    The export line above sets the environment variables needed for other gnome progs to figure out where to get at the keyring daemon.  Now I only need to enter one password when starting Evolution, and its to the keyring daemon, and it only happens once per session.  Not bad, if anyone knows how to make it so I don't have to enter a password at all, that'd be fantastic, but as for this issue, it is settled.
    thanks.

  • An OLD INACTIVE email address, asking for a password, continues to show up to play certain selections in my iTunes Music Library.  I want to REMOVE this old email, HOW DO I REMOVE IT!!  All attempts to remove it have failed!

    An OLD INACTIVE email address, asking for a password, continues to show up to play certain selections in my iTunes Music Library.  I want to REMOVE this old email address, HOW DO I REMOVE IT!!  All attempts to remove it have failed!

    Yes, if you change your Apple ID to your new email address. You don't have to. Under those sort of situations you can speak to Apple about transferring your purchased items to the new Apple ID, and see if they will help you.
    You don't lose access to your older purchased items, you simply cannot update or re-download them or, in some cases, use them without providing the old Apple ID and password. All purchased items are permanently tied to the Apple ID used at time of purchase.

  • WHY is TBird continually asking for my passwords? It lets me into my email whether I give it or not so what good is it? This is getting very old.

    When I do enter my password TB tells me it's wrong but it IS NOT wrong - I've checked them in preferences they are correct. What is the deal here?
    Also, problem #2: I do not want TB to be my default client, Every time I log in I get a window offering to set TB as default with no choice not to. This comes up every time. I have a screen shot of it but there's no attach button on this screen.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Linda

    re: When I do enter my password TB tells me it's wrong but it IS NOT wrong - I've checked them in preferences they are correct. What is the deal here?
    First check that the password will get access to your webmail. If you are prompted to update the webmail password, then follow instructions to update it.
    In Thunderbird, remove the stored password, both mailbox and smtp.
    * Tools > Options > Security > Passwords tab
    * click on 'Saved passwords'
    * click on 'Show passwords'
    * highlight the mailbox and smtp passwords for account
    * click on 'Remove'
    * click on 'Close'
    * click on OK to save changes to Options.
    * Close thunderbird and wait a short while for background processes to complete.
    * Restart Thunderbird.
    * It should ask for password, enter at prompt and select Password Manager to remember the password.
    * Click on OK.
    ''re: Every time I log in I get a window offering to set TB as default with no choice not to. This comes up every time.''
    Maybe you have a setting to check to see if TB is the default client?
    * Tools > Options > Advanced > General tab
    * under 'System Integration'
    * 'Always check to see if Thunderbird is the default mail client on startup'
    * Uncheck this checkbox.
    * click on OK to save changes.
    ''re: I have a screen shot of it but there's no attach button on this screen. ''
    It's been a while since I asked a Question, so I cannot remember if there was a facility to add an image at the time of creating the question.
    But once a question has been created, below every 'Post a Reply' text entry box, there is 'Add images:' and a 'Browse' button.
    click on Browse button, locate the saved image and click on Open to upload it. You will need to add some text in the reply box to give the image some context. Then click on 'Post Reply'
