Gmail keeps asking imap settings

i keep trying to get my emails on the iphone 5 and keeps asking me imap setting its doing my head in

Hi @amitsubba! John_Clark is right, you should use an App password/permission for your BlackBerry so you can finally access your Gmail account. Google will provide you with a specific password (16 characters) that you can use on your BlackBerry to setup your email. Here's how:Sign in using App Passwords
Note: make sure your 2-Step-Verification is turned ON.

Gmail keeps asking for password after iOS5 Upgrade

I have an iPhone 4 that I upgraded to iOS 5 last night. It now keeps asking me for my Gmail password.
This isssue is already under discussion here - http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/thread?tid=7059ec7762111ada&hl=en
I've deleted my Gmail account and tried to add it back, yet it keeps giving me the bad password error. I've reset my password on Google mail and issue persists even when trying to use new password. Any ideas?
Corbin

So I removed the buggy GMail account from Mail and waited a day. Today I decided to re-add it and all was well for one hour until the pop up for passwords happened again... I went into Preferences and accounts and saw my password wasn't stored so I added it and saved but still same issue.
Also I added this account to my iPhone and it was working fine til an hour again so maybe a syncing issue?

GMail keeps asking for password when other accounts are fine

Currently I am running 4 IMAP and 1 Exchange account on Mail. I am trying to add a fifth IMAP GMail account but can't get past the setup screen as it keeps saying my password is wrong when it clearly is correct.
How can I get IMAP running again and correctly on Mail?
Thank you

I cannot get the verification email to arrive in my inboxes and when I choose the security question options it tells me my birthdate is incorrect and I know it it not Help trying to reset my iPad to factory settings and keeps asking for a password I can't

I am trying to put my ipad back to factory settings and it keeps asking for my original Id which is the reason I am needing to reset it. When I try to do this via password prompts it asks for my date of birth which I enter correctly and it tells me it is incorrect and then trying the email route this does not send any emails to the registered accounts I set up originally - help!!

My guess is all the issues are probably related and fall back to malware.
AVG is probably correct in identifying malware. So I suggest you try some cleaning tools other than Emsisoft .
ones I use (all of them one after the other until I find one that can cope) are;
Roguekiller http://www.adlice.com/softwares/roguekiller/
Malwarebytes anti malware Free http://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/var2/confirm/
ESET online scanner http://www.eset.com/int/home/products/online-scanner/
So first create a clean boot in Windows using Microsoft's instructions https://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135?wa=wsignin1.0 and then run the anti malware applications.
My outside looking in guess is that malware has set itself up as an internet proxy and is is downloading copies of itself and other malware, blocking some mail port as times as downloading more malware is more important, and probably breaking your tivo as well..
Try the malware programs first. If that does not work I will try and talk you through some logging to see what is happening.

Mail keeps asking for password for my imap yahoo account?

I have both a Rogers Yahoo and a Bell email account. The Rogers imap account keeps asking for my password however the password is correctly entered. Help!

There's a long thread on here somewhere about Yahoo constantly requesting the password. Seems to have been going on some time with no real conclusion.
However, I did see a mention somewhere else that a user managed to 'fix' the issue by changing his password so that it had no capital letters in it. Don't know whether this will help in your case, but maybe worth a shot if you pw has any cap letters.
If I can find the link I'll post back.

Mail Keeps Asking For My Gmail Password

For about the past week or so Mail has trouble with a gmail account of mine. I'll try to send an email with the account and the 'select server' dialog will pop up.
Weird because I have 2 other gmail accounts in Mail (screenshot) and 1 of 'em ALSO is having problems but the other is NOT.
The passwords are up to date.
I tried the 'keychain access' solution located here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4590677?start=15&tstart=0
Any idea what's going on?

I was told to restore my i phone as my battery wasnt working well. I made sure i backed up my iphone and transferred my purchases before restoring it. When i try to restore it to my back up settings it keeps asking for a password which i dont know?

My battery was not working properly (kept running out over a few hours.) I was advised at the apple store to restore my iphone which i did. When i try to restore it to my back up it keeps asking for a password but i have no idea what this password is? could anyone help?

If your backup is encrypted, you cannot restore without the password.
You can continue to backup but you cannot restore without password.
There's no way to retrieve the password.
Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.

HT4623 I am trying to update my apps with a new user ID - I have changed it in settings but how to I change it in apps store - it keeps asking me for a password for my old user id?

I am trying to update my apps using a new user ID. I have changed it and I can't get it to change in the App Store. It keeps asking me for a password for my old ID??

YOu can't update your apps with the new apple id. All apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchased it, you will need to enter your password from you old id to update.
