GMail. Can send, not receive- "POP user name unrecognized"

Having trouble with GMail. "POP user name unrecognized"
I can SEND, but NOT receive mail from one mail account.
Tried-
1A.Started a new GMail account, and can do both- no problem.
1. Keychain First aid- no problem found
2. Deleted the password in keychain
3. Repaired permissions
3A. Restarted computer
4. Mac Janitor
5. Went into Mail pref. settings & reentered password.
6, checked GMail online, and all works there. updated password.
7. Checked settings at Gmail- POP enabled.

Setup Gmail with the instructions
posted on my website.
Thank you for your link to the set-up instructions. However, I don't think it is a configuration problem. Mine mysteriously fixed itself. I tried a lot of different things, but it spontaneously got better on its own I believe.
Since others are suddenly having Gmail problems, I think it could be GMail.
(I did update Firefox today- don't know if this matters)

If you don't mind me asking, what domain is MacMail under?

TS3276 I receive a pop up from ICal saying the server does not recognize me user name and password. This started yesterday. I have no problems with receiving or sending emails through Mail

I receive a pop-up from ICal saying the server does not recognize my user name and password for my me.com email address. This started yesterday and occurs about every 5 minutes or so. There are no problems with receiving or sending email through Mail. I did change me email password several days ago but have no problems sending/receiving since then.

I fixed the problem. I opened Preferences in ICal and entered my new password. No more pop-ups

ICal pop-up message .. The server did not recognize your user name or passw

I'm having a problem with pop-up boxes when I launch iCal. They indicate the following;
"The server responded with an error. The server did not recognize your user name or password for account “[email protected]” Make sure you enter them correctly."
I recently let my MobileMe account expire as I was not using it that much. As a result, I think this issue is occuring, though I don;t know how to fix it. The same is happening on my iPhone when I attempt to receive eMails from a secondary eMail account.
I would appreciate any help that anyone can provide.
Thank you !! Kenneth

A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
On the iPhone, tap Settings.
Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
Tap Add Account.
Tap Other.
Tap Add Mail Account.
Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
Click Next.
Ensure IMAP is selected.
Enter the following incoming mail server information:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Requires SSL: Yes
Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail.
Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 465 or 587
Requires SSL: Yes
Requires authentication: Yes
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
Tap Next.
The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
That’s all!

Error in iCal: The server did not recognize your user name or password for account "Gmail."

To keep my iCal up to date on two computers, I export an Archive in one and import it to the other. Yes, I know I should use the Cloud, but humour me.
Export of iCal from my MacBook Air (OS 10.7.5) no longer works when imported to my desktop (OS 10.6.8). It returns an error saying "The server did not recognize your user name or password for account “Gmail.” Make sure you enter them correctly."
After dismissing this dialogue box twice (it offers no other options, iCal crashes.
I've turned off the option on my MacBook that asks to use my Gmail account, but since I can no longer launch iCal on my desktop, it can't import new data. How can I clean out the brain of iCal on the desktop so that it will open -- blank -- and perhaps accept a new version of my iCal data?
Thanks,
Bruce

ICal pop-up when I open: The server did not recognize your user name or password for account. Make sure you enter them correctly.

The server did not recognize your user name or password for account. Make sure you enter them correctly.
I am getting this pop-up whenever I open iCal. Recently changed Google password. What has gone wrong?

You really should not post your email address to a public forum such as this where it can be harvested by spammers. I requested the Hosts edit it for your protection.

Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

I am getting a "not delivered" when I try to send a photo from my Ipad or iPhone via iMessage. I can receive photos in iMessage and I can send and receive photos other than with iMessage. I have tried restoring factory settings etc but no luck.

I am getting a "not delivered" when I try to send a photo from my Ipad or iPhone via iMessage. I can receive photos in iMessage and I can send and receive photos other than with iMessage. I have tried restoring factory settings etc but no luck. Is anyone else having this problem please?

I've been having this problem too, but here's the catch: originally it was only with my dad, and only sometimes. Now it's dad and husband, every time! Pix go through, via imessage, to everyone else, and they go through to dad/husband if I "send as text" after it fails.
And the other annoying thing- the blue bar will run all the way, and it will say "delivered". So I close out of imessage. When I reopen it again, the "delivered" has changed to "not delivered" with the red exclamation point. I just googled "imessage not sending photos" and founds TONS of people with the same problem, but no solutions. (I have rebooted phone, reset network settings, with no luck. I even had to backup/delete/restore my whole phone the other day for a different reason, and hoped that would fix it, but now it won't send to my dad OR my husband (who is on not just the same carrier, but the same family plan as me)

HT201320 Why can i not receive email with my icloud account but I can send it out only

Why can i not receive email with my icloud account but I can send it out only

Hi Nortarian,
The article below will walk you through the troubleshooting steps for email on your iPad:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
If you are unable to send or receive email, try the following steps:
Restart the iOS device.
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
Try an alternative Internet connection.
If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi: Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
Hope this helps ....
- Judy

EBS 7.3 "Could not authenticate this user name and password, try again"

I have just install Sun StorEdge Enterprise Backup Software 7.3 on a new Solaris 10 (06/06) system. I have installed the following packages with no errors: SUNWebsc (Client), SUNWebsn (Storage Node), SUNWebss (Server), SUNWebsm (Man pages) and SUNWebsg (Console).
I have executed the �nsraddadmin� command for both root and administrator.
I start the web browser with http://<hostname>:9000 and the java software loads with no errors. But when I try to login for the first time with administrator/administrator, I get the follow error:
ERROR: Could not authenticate this user name and password, try again�

I think the client is not able to do a HTTP POST
to the WLS server but it can do a HTTP GET.
I dont know why.

Hi,
I deployed a rpc web service using WLS 7.0 SP2 in HP-UX 11 environment.When I
invoke the web service through my browser (IE 6.0) using the web servicesurl,
it brings my service method correctly. From there, if I click the invokebutton
it asks me for a network user name and password under "weblogic" realm???If I
provide the admin user credentials (which I supplied while creating mydomain)
it is not accepting that it keeps popping up this network user passwordwindow
over and over. Not sure which username/password I have to provide here tosee
the result of my service.
If I try to invoke the web service through my client (static) I am gettinga connection
refused exception. I guess either way, I am not able to access my webservice.
In the attached file, I have cut and pasted the client stack trace as wellas
the server log trace from weblogic.
Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ganesh

OS X 10.4.6 Powerbook G4 - SMTP & Pop User Name is changing ITSELF!

Just as the subject says, I have several accounts in mail. It seems like every couple of days some of my accounts seem to change their outgoing mail server and the pop user name by itself. The outgoing mail server, which should be mail.clippergroupent.com is changing itself to something like mail.sbc-global.com (my DSL provider). Also, the username, usually: [email protected] changes itself to name%clippergroupent.com.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

OK, first try the following:
Open Preferences from within the Mail program and note the exact settings for your email accounts.
Quit Mail
Drag the following file to the desktop:
your home directory / Library / Preferences / com.apple.mail.plist
Restart Mail
Re-install your mail settings for at least one account
These actions will not interfere with your mailboxes, it will simply create a new plist preference file when you re-start Mail.
If that did not help, you can place back the .plist file so you have all your account settings back.

We purchased a new iPad2 and registered it using a 'new' iCloud email/ID. We are unable to send email from the iPad and iPhone. The error is: Cannot send mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect.

We purchased a new iPad2 and registered it using a 'new' iCloud email/ID. We are unable to send email from the iPad and iPhone. The error is:>> Cannot send mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect.

About ~20 hours later, this ended up solving itself. We can send email using the '.icloud' email from both the iPad and iPhone. Advise would be 'wait' before you start seeking alteranatives like yahoo, hotmail, etc. This definitely is a convenient way to keep all your 'cloud' information in a centralized place, including the common email...
