Exchange password cannot contain '&'

I had some initial trouble getting my mail, calendar and contacts to sync between Exchange/Outlook and the iPhone. I tried various solutions and eventually removed the & from my password which fixed the problem.
My best guess is that the iPhone password keyboard is entering a different character for '&' than that which you would get from Shift+7 on a Windows keyboard. Has anyone else hit this problem or successfully used a password with '&' in it.
It is worth noting that I'm set up to use a UK (English) config on both Windows and iPhone, and that I can log in successfully from Outlook and Safari (iPhone & Windows). It is only when using the Exchange account set up that the problem comes up.
Also worth noting that I'm running on an iPhone 3GS
Thanks

Register iPhone "Password cannot contain spaces"

I want to register my iPhone but cannot login to my existing Apple ID because the screen shows an error saying my password cannot contain spaces...
However, my actual password does contain space(s), and I have never experienced issues with logging in elsewhere. (appleid.apple.com, iTunes Store, developer.apple.com, ...)
Is this some kind of bug in the register form?

Cannot get past a exchange password issue

Help! Once I log into my Ipad I cannot go past a password sign-in for my exchange email. I have reset the password at work and tried logging in with the new password but no change.

I'm having the same issue. I have to change my exchange password every 3 months at work and I have to do it on the work computer. If I could get to Settings on my iPad I could enter the new password, but I can't get past the error message; hitting cancel only works for a second. How do you get around this?

HT1567 How do I find what my exchange password is

I cannot log in to my e mail on my phone. It is asking for an exchange password, I do not remember ever creating one. Any ideas how I find it ?

Prompts for Exchange password every morning

We recently migrated all of our users over to Exchange 2010. After the switch, some of our iPhone users are receiving a prompt each morning to enter their Exchange password. If the user clicks "OK" or "Cancel" the message goes away and their mail works fine the rest of the day. That is, until the next morning when the prompt appears again. I don't know the exact time that this happens, but each user just says when they wake and unlock their phone, the prompt is on the screen. I've been working with MS Exchange support for a month now with no luck. It's such a hard thing to troubleshoot when it only happens once a day and I cannot force the error to happen until the next morning.
This is not happening to all of our iPhone users, just some. My iPhone has been fine from day one. MS Support can't seem to find anything different about my account (or any of the working accounts) compared to the accounts that are getting the prompts.
Has anyone seen this before? Or know how to fix? I've found a couple "fixes" online in some forums but none of them have worked for us.

I have the exact same issue on my iPhone and iPad. Our company just migrated to exchange 2007 in November. Each morning I get the promptmon both devices after unlock. I thought this was due to our company lock out from 12am - 6am for backups, but hearing you have the issue has me thinking it's a software bug.
I also am having isssues with the phone downloading messages. It just keeps saying "connecting" but takes in some cases 30-60 minutes. This is even with 5 cell bars and full n band wifi. I also am running MobileMe and gmail on the phone, but only MobileMe and exchange are set form push.
Please help if you can. Thank you.

Exchange "Password incorrect" lockout of iPhone

iPhone 3GS
iOS Version 5.0.1
Build 9A405
I have an Exchange email account set up on my iPhone. Now when I turn on my iPhone and "slide to unlock" I am presented with a popup window saying
Password Incorrect
Enter the password for the
Exchange account "Exchange"
{Password }
[Cancel] [OK]
Entering the formerly correct password then [OK] does not satisfy this challenge, the popup returns. If I attempt to [Cancel] the popup returns. I cannot get past this popup window. I'm locked out of my iPhone.
I no longer have an Exchange account. There is no current password to any Exchange account.
I need to gain access to my iPhone in order to remove this account from the email settings. I am unable to get beyond the above popup to do so.

I also just resolved the problem, but differently, and the issue was on the GMAIL side. This is a variation on some people's advice to allow App log-ins.
If you sign in on a computer browser and look at the top of your Gmail mail window, you may see a line above the message list that says something to the effect of "Unusual sign-in location: There have been multiple attempted log-ins from a suspicious source." My first two were from when I was traveling.
I confirmed that those locations were legit, and then there was another prompt asking about another suspicious repeated attempt sign-in, which was my iPhone Exchange, although it was not labeled as such. It gave me an option to forever accept sign-ins from this application (Exchange). I accepted, and all was fixed!
Hope that helps some people.

Iphone emails to PC, but exchange password and account cancelled.

Dear All,
Can anyone explain to me how to transfer emails from my iphone to a PC.
The only catch is that the email account exchange password and account has been cancelled.
However as some of you may know your emails still remain on the iphone.
It means you can acces them and seach through your emails.
I want to be able to place these emails on to a PC.
Thanks all for your help.

Everytime I open my email the password Incorrect screen appears. It says "Enter the password for the Exchange account "Exchange"". I have a second email address that was being transferred to my Iphone, but when I lost my original phone and replaced it this July, I hav'nt been able to retrieve this old password. The Apple store rep said to contact Microsoft for this info, but that's next to impossible!! I had a very old hotmail account but that's been closed for over two years, and my other email adress has nothing to do with them. So I'm at a loss on how to change this password??
Thanks, wtadams

I have set up a new itunes library and am trying to sync this with my iphone. My iphone is asking for an 'exchange' password. I don't know what this is or where to find it.

I am trying to sync my iphone with a new itunes library. The iphone is askin for an 'exchange' password. I don't know what this is or where to find it.

Sounds like you do have an Exchange account setup on your phone. Have a Gmail or Hotmail account? They can both be setup as Exchange accounts. Have a work email account?

Exchange password, what is it and why does my phone keep asking for it?

For the last two days, my phone periodically wants me to enter an exchange password. This is the first I ever heard of it so can't figure out what it is.n I though exchange was a Microsoft product so what's it doing on my Apple iPhone. I just upgraded the 3GS phone to iCloud.

make sure you don't have 2 step verification in gmail.
otherwise you need to follow
Signing in using application-specific passwords
The codes that you’ll get with 2-step verification don’t work with all applications. There are a few applications that use information from your Google Account (like the Gmail application on your phone, or Outlook) that require another type of code. These are called application-specific passwords.
Some devices and applications that use these special passwords include:
POP and IMAP email clients such as Outlook, Mail and Thunderbird
Gmail and Google Calendar on smartphones
ActiveSync for Windows Mobile and iPhone
YouTube Mobile on Apple devices
Cloud Print
Installed chat clients such as Google Talk and Adium
3D Warehouse, Sketchup, and installed applications
AdWords Editor
Sync for Google Chrome
Gmail Notifier
How to generate an application-specific password
Unlike a verification code that you receive from your phone or through Google Authenticator, application-specific passwords are generated. You don’t have to memorize them, ever - you simply generate a new one each time you need to sign into a particular application. Follow the steps below to generate your application-specific password:
Visit the Authorizing applications & sites page (pictured below) under your Google Account settings.
Under the Application-specific passwords section, enter a descriptive name for the application (label 1) you want to authorize, such as "AdWords Editor – Desktop," then click “Generate application-specific password" (label 2).
You'll then see the application-specific password you just created (3). You'll also see the name you wrote in for the device (4) and a link to Revoke (5) -- or cancel -- the code.
Once you click Done, you’ll never see that application-specific code again. But don't panic: You can generate a new one whenever you’re prompted for an application-specific password by a non-browser device or application -- even a device or application you’ve authorized before.
Using application-specific passwords
When prompted for a password when you sign in to a non-browser application or device that accesses your Google Account:
Enter your username.
Enter your application-specific password in the password field.
If your application has an option to remember your application-specific password or stay signed in, you can select that option so you won’t have to generate and enter a new application-specific password each time you access your account from this application or device.

VLD-1141, Template cannot contain escape characters.

Hi All,
I need help about mapping deployment. I am working on a mapping. I can deploy it before to 9i target location. But after upgrading target database to 10g, I get the error VLD-1141 when I deploy it. The detail is Template cannot contain escape characters.

There are to bugs:

Bug 5561224 - MIGRATION OF MAPPING REQUIRES CHANGE IN CONFIG TO ALLOW VALIDATION
against OWB 10.2.0.1
but these bugs are fixed from 10.2.0.2
The bug is related to pre/post mapping operators...
If you are on 10.2.0.3 or your mapping does not have these operators then have no clue...

[Application Update Error] - The element 'Field' in namespace 'urn:deployment-manifest-schema' cannot contain text.

Hello,
I developed a custom SharePoint 2013 Application (SharePoint hosted) and everything works fine. If I tried to update the application and I ran into the following error:
The element 'Field' in namespace 'urn:deployment-manifest-schema' cannot contain text. List
of possible elements expected: any element in namespace '##any'.
If I redeploy the application (without update, just a new instance) everything works fine. Only the update scenario throws the exception above.
I tried different things to solve that issue:
I recreated the feature
I checked all the custom field definitions, content types and lists inside the app.
I tried different O365 tenants and a SharePoint 2013 On Premise Development Server (Same problem on all systems)
Can anybody give me a tip to solve that problem?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
According to your description, when you try to update your SharePoint Hosted App, an error occurs.
To narrow down the issue, I would suggest you create a simple app without other components in it, deploy it and then update it to see if this error will still occur.
Once you get a workable app without the update issue, then you can add other customizations one after one in this app and perform the update. By doing this, it would
be easier to find out the root cause.
Anyway, you can take a look at the link below about updating app for more information:

Feel free to reply if there any progress.

Does Oracle User Password can contain non-ASCII characters?

Hi Experts,
Can we create a user with password containing non-ASCII characters like "Ro'çá".
I was able to create a database instance by providing the password for sys as "Ro'çá". But now i am not able to login from command prompt using sqlplus or SQLPLUS Application. I am getting below error:

Also using create user i am not able to create user with password in non-ASCII characters but alter user works and changes the password to non-ASCII characters when enclosed in quotes.
I wanted to know whether the password can contain non-ASCII characters or not?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I don't think that the characters used are allowed. See this doc which only mentions three characters to be used .

I am trying to set up a mail account but I get a warning that my password cannot be sent securely to the server. how do I correct the problem?

I am trying to set up a mail account but I get a warning that my password cannot be sent securely to the server. How do I correct this so that I can set up my email account?

1. If you haven't tried this already, just delete the user account entirely, and then try setting it up again.
2. To find the permissions file:
     a. hold down the option key
     b. go to the Go menu in the finder
     c. scroll down to Library and open it
     d. in Library, go to Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Preferences
     e. drag it to the trash and restart.
3. if that doesn't work, go to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access. In the Keychain Access menu, do Keychain First Aid, and repair.
This should keep you busy for a while.

Prompted for Exchange password, but no Exchange account

I have a user that has an iPhone 3GS and she says it was updated a month ago. Today the iPhone started to ask her for her Exchange password continuously. After removing the Exchange account from the iPhone, removing the pairing from Exchange server, closing all open apps, and a hard restart, the iPhone prompts for the Exchange password after a reboot. The strange thing is the account has been removed and the prompt doesn’t look like a normal dialog. I’m thinking herphone has been compromised. Any suggestions?

Here is my iPhone dialog box prompt. Not only does it look different, but it specifically states what account.

Exchange password cannot contain '&'
