  • Had to reset, now my apple tv will not accept by password for my wireless system, what do I do?

    Apple TV will not accept my password for my TV, had to restart, what do I do?

    Power cycle the router and try again.
    If the issue persists, temporarily turn off security on the router and connect.  Then turn security back on and connect, it should accept the password this time.

  • TS1398 I have been having network problems on my Ipad and I reset all network settings as advised in the article about problems connecting to networks.  Now my Ipad will not allow me to sign onto any network....it will not accept the passwords for any net

    My ipad has been a little glitchy for the last couple of weeks....not able to load pages because of DNS lookup failure and really slow loading...some of which has to do with the DSL service I have, but I followed the directions on one of the Apple wi-fi issues pages to reset network all connections..which I did, and now the Ipad cannot connect to WiFi because it will not accept (or cannot resolve..or??) password.  I am sure I am typing the password correctly and have tried it on several routers..and it cannot cannect to any router properly even with the correct password.  My laptop is connected just fine and it accepts the password and I have confirmed the password with the ISP and tried other routers.
      So the question is what should I do if I am entering the right password and the Ipad can't sign itself on to the Wifi network?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • My Mac book is not accepting my password

    I have been using my Macbook all day, now suddenly when I was trying to load an app, it no longer accepts my password ! I've tried various approaches in case it was the keyboard malfunctioning but obviously can't tell, and the 'Name' is correct. It just doesn't recognize my password and now can't access my notebook. Is there any way that I can regain access ?

  • TS1398 my Iphone 4 S will not accept Wifi Passwords - for some Wifi locations

    @ some locations my Iphone 4 S would not accept the Wifi Password  , gives me a error " incorrect Password "  - any suggestiions ? It connects with my Home linksys  moderm .

    Only the wireless carrier to which the iPhone is locked can
    unlock it. If the iPhone is locked to Orange, you have to
    work with Orange to get it unlocked. Perhaps someone
    more familiar with UK wireless providers will jump in as
    to the 30 day period, but generally the wireless provider
    sets the unlock requirements. It sounds like Orange is trying
    to discourage unlocking or at least make it inconvenient.

  • My app store application on my iPhone 4S is not accepting my password for one of my Apple ids. I have a feeling it is because the ID isn't correct, it should be my email address and it is not just 1st portion.

    My app store application on my IPhone 4S is not accepting my Apple ID and password. The ID comes up, but I don't think it is totally correct as it doesn't have the complete email address which is actually my ID. I know the password is correct because I just changed it even though I knew what my last one was, I changed to be extra sure. I am not sure how to change the ID in the App Store application.

    To change the ID:
    Settings > Store > Apple ID. Sign Out of the old and in with the new.

  • IPad Mini is not accepting tested passwords for wifi, iMessage or hotspot.

    Having increasing problems with my new ipad mini bought just two days ago. Along with very poor wifi connection (strong and fine with all my other devices including iPhones and iPods) and now it is not accepting the correct passwords for anything to do with connectivity. This includes personal hotspots from my iPhone 5, wifi, iMessage etc. All are running latest iOS and passwords are correct. Have attempted to reset and all other listed troubleshooting to no affect.

    Curse you autocorrect! That should be re-typed not restyled.

  • Why will thunderbird not accept my password that I know is right

    when it asks for my password I type it in as I know it but it is rejected over and over

    Many things can cause a password error, not the least of which is an anti virus program. Nortons in particular have a long standing reputation.
    Some servers also offer password errors if your settings a incorrect.
    To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try one of the following:
    *Restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". If Thunderbird works like normal, there is an Add-on or Theme interfering with normal operations. You will need to re-enable add-ons one at a time until you locate the offender.
    *Restart the operating system in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''.

  • CC desktop app not accepting my password for update downloads

    CC Desktop notifications show that I have four available updates. When I click the app and try to update, it requests my username and password. I've entered it several times but the dialogue box just shakes, indicating it's rejecting the password. I've changed my password twice through the adobe website.

    Editordeb it sounds like your computer is requesting an administrator account user name and password.  This should be the same username and password you use to install other software on your computer.  What specific operating system are you using exactly?

  • New Iphone 4s will not accept email password

    I received my new Iphone 4s in the mail yesterday and went to AT&T to have them set it up. Everything was working until today when my backlight went out. I had to make an appointment and go to the apple store and reveived a new phone. Now after updating my phone and trying to set up the email, it is not accepting my password for my yahoo mail account. I have tried multiple times and each time after typing it in I get a message that says Yahoo! server unavailable please try again later. However I can log into my email fine on the computer.

    Delete the account on your phone then set it up again.

  • My iPod touch 5gen sees the wifi but does not accept the password

    My iPod touch does not accept the password for my home wifi but can connect to other wifi like Best Buy's.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • HT1277 Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my phone and iPad.  Can anyone help me with this?  Is there a setting I need to check?

    Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my iPhone and iPad. Can anyone help me with this?  Is there a setting that I need to check?

    All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
    Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
    Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
    Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then?

    try resetting your phone by turning it off and back on again. The servers may still be having a hard time keeping up, so you may just need to wait a little while and try again.
