Gmail was hacked so I changed password now my Macbook pro keeps giving me error message can't retrieve gmail
Gmail account was hacked so I changed my gmail password. Now my macbook pro keeps sending me and error message that says:
ogging in to the Google IMAP server “imap.gmail.com” failed. So then I go to mail and Preferences and change the passwords there including the SMTP and I STILL get the error message. I am going to lose it! Some one PLEASE tell me how to fix this. Thanks
Mail has TWO servers, a sender and a receiver. Each has a password that is not necessarily the same as the other.
Inside Mail use the Window Menu to select Connection Doctor, to see which side is connecting and which side is failing. Then adjust the password on the side that is not working.
Don't count on the receipt of emails supposedly from you as the sender as an indication that your email Account has been hacked. More often, an Address Book on a distant computer of a school kid's mom or an eBay trading partner is the computer whose Address book has been stolen, with your email address in it. A spam generator then sends out thousands of fake emails, supposedly from you.

Recently I was working on my home Network and lost myPassword for my Home wireless connection. After many attempts, I remembered thepassword and was able to get in. Now the MacBook Pro only works at home on aHard wire connection. I have an additional 9 devices on the same network, allare functioning properly. The Air connection works fine at any other Networksout side the Home connection. I did a PRAM reset, deleted the Network profileand rebuilt in System Preferences. Still unable to connect wireless on Homenetwork. Any Ideas?
I seem to have fixed it by putting <div class="clearfloat"></div> after the navigation bar?

I have changed my apple password three times because i keep getting an error message when i try to loggin to App Store.
You may want to. I know that I've activated a few iPhones that belonged to other people on my own Mac and for some reason, no matter what they did, it always asked for my account password. I have no idea why this happens though.

While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store.
The Mountain Lion installer looks at your internal drive to make certain that it's error-free before continuing installation. You should have an application named "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" in your Applications folder now so you shouldn't have to download it again. Do this...
Boot to your Lion recovery partition by holding down both the Command and the R keys while booting. Open Disk Utility from the Recovery partition and select your hard drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it) and click on Verify Disk. If you come up with any errors, click on Repair Disk. At the end of the cycle you will get a message that the disk was successfully repaired or a message that the hard drive could not be repaired.
If you're able to repair the disk, just reboot as normal and open the "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" and the installation will proceed. If Disk Utility was unable to repair the disk, you need to get to your local Apple Store as soon as possible so that they can see if the disk is salvageable or beyond repair.
Good luck,

I have a MacBook Pro 13 early 2011. I can't use Gmail because it says my version of Safari (5.1.7 (7534.57.7) is not compatible. What can I do?
Niel, I found a way to download Safari 6.1.6 but it failed because the installer couldn't create the folder '/var/folders/lg/pqypcsnn715btrs106b9crpr0000gn/T//Install.3334NgcMxu"

MacBook Pro 13.3/2.3/2X2GB/320/SD-USA with Mac OS X v10.5
I've set up my Mac - Mail with my yahoo, gmail and hotmail accounts and can successfully send and receive mail. However, when I go online to my actual yahoo, gmail and hotmail accounts to delete unwanted emails or to move those emails into subfolders, my Mac - Mail is not updated. How do I do this?
Also, if you can help show me how to view my hotmail folders in Mac - Mail, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!!
TessyIs it POP or IMAP? - see Mail/Preferences/Accounts - highlight an account and see what the Type is.
Try Mail/'menu bar'/Mailbox/'Take All Accounts Online' -

How can this error be corrected? "The product distribution file could not be vverified. It must be damaged or was not signed. So can this error be repaired? I have read good things about this updated software. I really looking forward to enjoying the benefits of using OS X Mavrick softtware in my daily life.
Another question can I operate laptop with other project while it is downloading?
Thanks,
Otis A. DrakefordPlease read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -

After you perform each step, try to restore your device.
Restart your computer.
Disconnect all your USB devices from your computer and connect to another USB port.
Use a different USB cable.
Uninstall third-party security software.
Try restoring using an alternate computer. -
I had to set up a new email ID, because I no longer had access to my old email address and Adobe was forcing me to change password, but I could not access the verification email. Now I cannot read my books under my new ID, even though I got Adobe support to set up my new ID.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do. -
I just downloaded an iphoto update and when I tried to share my photos was asked for email and password. I must have typed in the info wrong because I keep getting an error message. I don't see how to change the info to the correct mistake..
I too added 2nd apple ID when I tried to get Free app from apple store just to get to NONE on the credit card needed. It said it sent confirmation email to my new apple ID email that I have to confirm. Problem is I can not get to the new apple ID email account. On my ipad it logs into my original email account and I see no where to log into another email account. If I go to my laptop, the new apple ID I created does not let me log into email where apple said it was sent to. It did not send to back up email account either.
Can I log into 2 email accounts on my ipad where it says mail at bottom?
Can I have 2 apple ids?
If I created a 2nd apple id to get to NONE on credit card needed, can't I log into it also on another laptop in gmail?
(won't let me)
If I used my original apple id I created when I got my new ipad, it will not let me get free app without credit card, there is no where it says NONE needed. I am too new to apple to start with credit cards etc until I get use to it. -
I thought my admin user name and password were the same I sign on with, apparently not because now I am locked out of my own computer. I took two hours to reload mavericks from ap store, because i was told it would give me the option of changing the password. It did not. Sooooo, that's where I am. Thanks for any help.

Contact Support in your country, as long as they can confirm your id and that it's your account then they should be able to get you access to it : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form to contact Support : https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
