Hotmail account password changed on PC but iPhone still accessing email.

This is a concern as someone else appears to be using my account and could be using this security hole as a way of never having to enter a new password to the account.

If the issue occurs with iCloud and you are running iOS 7 then follow the steps below.
From the article: iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.

  • My account password has been reset but nothing is being emailed to my email address. What to do?

    My account password for itunes has been reset because of me trying to log in too much with the wrong password, it says that it has been reset but nothing has been emailed to my address.  What do I do?  It has been years since I have logged into my itunes on my old computer and I have put off buying any music because I want to get this fixed and not loss the ability to play the songs that I have now on my ipod.

    Try it again and keep checking your email, it also depends on how fast your Internet is because, I used to have a really slow Internet connection thing and it would take hours or even a day!! If you have another apple product like phone, or iPod see if you can go on there and try it. I'm not that advanced with this stuff but it works for me!

    Please help....!

    For your problem there Not much you can do if you can't finger out your password.
    1: you can retore the device to last backup date. "Recommended"
    2: you can keep trying to remember you password and in time your device ether lock up or it will make you want for a vary long time.
    If your willing to do a retore fallow The steps below
    1 power off the device.
    2 turn on iTunes and then hold the home button wile holding the home pluge the device into the computer. Keep holding the home until the computer sees the device and says it needs a restor,
    3 do a restor. The computer will download the new ios5.0.1 and install it on your device.
    (note if the iPad reboots before the computer is done downloading don't worry about it. Just power it back off and hold home and pluge it back in ones more. And select restor again.)
    4 ones it's done with restore. Click on the device in your left calume and right click it and select restor from back up.
    5 pick your name of the name of the iPad and wait for it for complet all transfers. This can take some time. Even up to a hour some times more if you have a lot of apps.

  • HT4759 updated to Lion, from snow leopard after updating all necessary programs & system, recieved emails saying it was successful changing to icloud but can i access iclound No - nothing works! webmail & mail - also reset password.

    updated to Lion, from snow leopard after updating all necessary programs & system, recieved emails saying it was successful changing to icloud but can i access iclound No - nothing works! webmail & mail - also reset password.

    Ok 1st one. The warning restriction message relates to this line in main.cf:
    smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated  permit_mynetworks  check_helo_access hash:/etc/postfix/helo_access  reject_non_fqdn_hostname  reject_invalid_hostname  permit reject_invalid_helo_hostname
    The last reject occurs after the single word "permit" and is ignored.
    However, that's not the problem.
    I'm not exactly sure what's happening, but this might be a clue.
    It would appear that either postfix is not being able to create the socket for private/policy or it's somehow created with the wrong permissions.  You might need to ramp up the debug level to get a better idea.
    You could check if it's being created by "netstat -a | grep private/policy" in terminal.
    My guess is that it's not being created because there is no setup statement in your master.cf file, but I don't understand why postfix would be looking for it if it isn't set up.  Private/policy I think relates to grey listing.  Maybe gives you a hint.

  • HT5622 I keep on getting emails asking me to reset my password when I haven't requested a password change. Is somebody trying to access my account as i've had 4 emails now in last 3 days?

    I keep on getting emails asking me to reset my password when I haven't requested a password change. I somebody trying to access my account as i've received this msg like 4 times in last few days now?
    Thanks

    If you use Mail.app, hover your cursor over any of the links in the emails you're receiving to see if they lead directly to an Apple-owned subdomain, like so...
    If the links in the email(s) you received are exactly like this, then it's possible there's an issue with your account that you should probably follow up on. If they don't look like exactly like this, then these are phishes, and you can post screenshots of those links here so that someone from Apple can follow up on them. (Best not to click on these!)

  • HT5621 I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that?

    I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that? It keeps asking me to input my password, but obviously that won't work because the ID is wrong not the password.

    Then change your Apple ID back to the old ID, then delete the account. Once done, change your ID to your new one.

  • When I try to update creative cloud I get a popup to login, I enter my Adobe password but it doesnt work. I reset my password and tried again but it still doesnt work.

    When I try to update creative cloud I get a popup to login, I enter my Adobe password but it doesnt work. I reset my password and tried again but it still doesnt work.

    Hi,
    Thank you for getting back to me. I was able to locate the opm.db file and delete it. (as instructed below) I go to applications>Adobe Creative Cloud and double click. It prompts me to login, it logs in and says there is an update, I click update and it prompts me to sign in with my password, I enter the same password and it doesn't take it. Also, the opm.db file is back in the OOBE folder. Im I launching Creative Cloud incorrectly?
    Close the Creative Cloud Desktop application.
    Navigate to the OOBE folder.
    Windows: :\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
    Mac OS: /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
    Delete the opm.db file.
    Launch Creative Cloud. Try signing in.

  • We have the itouch hooked up to wifi but can't access email

    we have the itouch hooked up to wifi but can't access email or app store - is there a router setting (which is an open system, no passwords or log in needed) we need to address? We can successfully use safari, but anything with a password seemigly is  no go.  This is using a new iTouch 8G that I bought for my Mom yesterday. 

    We got our son's working yesterday. It didn't dawn on me until many hours later that I kept giving the router password instead of the Hex key for the I-touch password Entry. We had to supply the Hex Key. We use WEP as a security mode and both password and Hex key are in Hexidecimal format. I hope this helps you and saves you many hours of headaches.
