HT1277 Why is mobile me no longer accepting my password?

My password still works for other application. However, mobile me no longer accepts it and no, I have not changed it nor mistyped it.

I'm having this same problem. I can no longer get my email using Mac Mail or Outlook. I can log into the website and get it just fine, so I know my password is working fine.
I have deleted the account and started over from scratch, but it will not log in.
I get: Logging in to the MobileMe IMAP server "mail.me.com" failed. Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct then click continue. If the infomration isn't correct, you cannot received messages.
As I said, everything is correct. I changed the server settings as suggested above, it did not help.
Nevermind....all of a sudden it's working.

  • Why does Time Capsule no longer accept my password?

    I noticed that Time Machine was showing an error. It said that it could not find the backup volume.
    I tried connecting to the Time Capsule via Finder, but it wasn't connecting.
    I opened up AirPort Utility and tried to access the Time Capsule, and it asked for a password, which it has never done before since the password is saved in my Keychain.
    I enter the password, it says something like "Reading device settings" with a progress bar, and then it fails and asks for my password again.
    I have tried on my Mac, on my rommate's WinXP machine, on my Mac booted into Windows 7, and on my iPhone. All of them have the password saved, but none of them are able to connect; I know the password is right, but the Time Capsule seemingly won't accept it.
    Earlier I noticed that the AirPort Utility did show some more information than before, so it must have connected, but by the time I noticed it and tried to actually access the device settings, it was asking for my password again.
    Why might this happen? What can I do to fix it? I don't think I changed anything, certainly not with the TimeCapsule, and I would really rather not have to go through a factory reset, then reconfigure the device, then make sure it works with every device in the house, etc.... and I certainly don't want to have to do that every time this randomly happens. If there anything I can do? Why might this be happening?
    I think I'm using Firmware 7.6.x, but since I can't connect I can't check it.

    A combo of Lion and firmware 7.6 et al..
    Go back to 7.5.2 as it is much more stable firmware for the rest of the known world.. I have issues with TC as soon as I upgrade to any firmware 7.6 and greater. And it works fine with 7.5.2 which is very solid.
    Simply turn off the weekly update search so it doesn't continually start flashing amber to be updated.

  • My laptop compaq presario will not connect to the Internet anymore after buying airport extreme. Why? It detects the network, accepts my password, but will not connect to Internet.

    My laptop compaq presario will not connect to the Internet anymore after buying airport extreme. Why? It detects the network, accepts my password, but will not connect to Internet. I tried to repair connection, tried to reboot modem several times, I even updated my computer. Nothing. All it says is that it does not detect modem. Why?

    Welcome to the support community group.
    First, are you sure that your AirPort Extreme has been configured correctly and is properly connected to your modem?
    Begin by telling us how you have things connected and if the Airport Extreme is replacing a previously owned router or is this an entirely new installation?
    First be sure that your modem is working and properly connects you to the internet using an ethernet cable directly connected to your laptop.  Once you're sure that's working, reset the AirPort to factory defaults by disconnecting it from power and pressing and holding in the small reset button on the back  for 15 - 20 seconds while you reconnect it to power.  Then turn everything off for 5 minutes. Connect the Airport to your modem with and ethernet cable to the Airport WAN port on the back (check the user guide to make sure you connect the cable to the correct port) then connect a second ethernet cable between the laptop and one of the LAN ports on the AirPort Extreme.
    Then power up the modem first, wait 5 minutes and then power up the Airport, wait 5 minutes and finally power up your laptop.
    Then run the airport configuration utility from your laptop.  Since you're not using an Apple computer, be sure that all of your firewall, and virus blocking and checking software is disabled before you run the airport configuration utility.  Once you run the utility, it should detect your AirPort and allow you to use the configuration wizard to set things up.
    Check back if you're still having problems.

  • HT201363 My ipad does no longer accept my password

    My iPad no longer accepts my password.  How do I fix this? Thanks!

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • Changed Apple ID now mobile phone won't accept the password

    I changed my Apple ID using my laptop.  I have synched my phone since then, but somehow my phone now won't accept my password.  I'm trying to download an app and it brings up the old apple ID and then says my password was entered incorrectly.  My password is not incorrect and I am able to get into my apple account via my laptop.  What can I do? 

    On your Phone sign Out of your Account... close All open Apps.. and Perform a Reset...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
    Now try it...

    Hi Roger,
    Does gMail's WebMail work with the same login & password?
    Here are two steps that have come in handy in related situations
    1) login to gmail on your computer or device via a web browser
    2) once logged in successfully, go to this URL to unlock:

  • ITunes will no longer accept my password

    The same password I have used previously will no longer get accepted so I changed it and that will not get accepted either.  Any suggestions?

    First, I made sure on the Apple site that I could sign into the iTunes Store to make sure I was using the right password for iTunes and it was.  However, when I went to redeem a gift card on iTunes, the box kept popping up asking me to enter my password over and over again and I could not get past it.  I am on my MacBook Pro, OSX 10.6.8 and my iTunes version is 11.1.3.  I shut down my laptop, restarted, made sure in Safari pop ups were not blocked, private browsing off and preferences set to Never deny cookies and I emptied the cache.  I forced quit iTunes and then relaunched it.  This worked. 

  • Mail will no longer accept my password

    I recently upgraded to Lion and moved my MobileMe account to iCloud. After experiencing problems with some of my apps, I switched back to Snow Leopard (10.6.8, Clean install). I'm now having issues logging in to Mail from my Mac, as my password is being rejected. This problem didn't exist when I set up my account after moving back down to Snow Leopard. Rather, it started a couple weeks ago. I can still login to iCloud via Safari and all of my mail continues to come in on my iPhone 4S just fine, but not on my MacBook Pro. I tried deleting the account in Mail and adding it again, but I can't continue the account setup, as the password is getting rejected from the setup window.
    Not sure if this is the issue, but since switching back, I can no longer upload (Share) photos or videos to my Gallery via iMovie or Aperture, since iCloud doesn't work with apps running in Snow Leopard. It's a minor inconvenience that I can live with, since those services will be dropped in June anyway, but is the problem with Mail the exact same same issue? Because System Preferences in Snow Leopard wants to sync with MobileMe, which, as I mentioned before, I am no longer a part of, since upgrading to iCloud.
    Am I on the right track here? Do I need to give up using Mail on my laptop, until I can upgrade back to Lion and iCloud?

  • After installing iOS5, my IPad no longer accepts my accesscode (I'm sure it is the right one)

    Why doen my IPad no longer accept my accesscode (and I'm sure it is the right one !!)

    Ooops.
    I upgraded my 10.6.8 system to 10.7.5. ..No problem, but my practice is to connect an ESATA dock to my macpro. install to the drive in the doc, use migration assistant to migrate my data and apps.   use the os in the doc for 2 weeks, if no issue then I delete the OS partiton in my Internal System Drive, do a carbon copy clone to the internal drive.
    I just did the similar to upgrade to mavericks.   I installed to a new hardrive in my docking station.   (black widow esata dock).  I noticed 10.9.1 is slow stayed with 10.7.5 as my operating system.  now and then I would boot 10.9.1 fire up the console utility and fix the issues that made it slow....
    Now I am at the "burn in stage" mavericks is now running fast and stable.   I'll use all my apps and if it does not break with the applications I run I will eventaully cc my 10.7.5 OS drive to the docking station, file the drive away.. and take my 10.9.1 drive in the doc and cc it to my internal system drive.
    I always wipe out a partion when installing a new OS.  Zeroing out is a bit more thorough, you will know if your drive is junk... but it's overkill for me.
    I figured repartion is ok.
    I'm 2 weeks away from doing a carbon copy clone from my 10.9.1 os drive in my dock to my internal drive.
    by the way.. I am running Mavericks on a 8 core macpro 2,1.  I have a modified bootloader that has an arbitration layer EFI32 to/from EFI64 emulated.
    pretty cool.
    And from new system standards, the old macpro stacks up pretty well:

  • Why won't itunes store accept my password?

    This is making me crazy.  I downloaded a couple of tunes earlier today, and after a reboot the iTunes store no longer accepted my password.
    Thinking that I had somehow screwed up something I went to Apple's ID manager and changed my password.  Every function (this board, iCloud) will accept my credentials but the iTunes store will not.
    Guess Apple does not want my money.  Are there other sites similar to iTunes where I can pay for media content?

    I didn't do anything to fix it - the next day, after another reboot (for an unrelated software update) I opened iTunes and tried again, and it worked fine. Go figure.
