HT204053 IMessage Login Error
I'm trying to activate iMessage with the Apple ID I've owned for years, but keep getting this response "the user name of password for "[email protected]" was incorrect. Try again. I even tried creating a new 2nd Apple ID with password and still get the same message as above.
I just used my standard Apple ID to log in to the support communities so I know it works.
Any ideas?
Tim
Few:
1.Server glitch - try again in couple hours
2.Mistyped password or user name - make sure you type in full e-mail for the apple id, make sure you capitalize where necessary, verify you can log into your account at appleid.apple.com.
3. Phone glitch - hard reset phone.
4. Network problem - verify that you are connected to Internet and can login to secure website.

Imessage login error with valid AppleID
I have an iPad 2 with 5.1.1 IOS. I am able to successfully log into the Apps store with my AppleID. I am able to log into the appleid.apple.com site with my Apple ID.
However, when I try to log into either iMessage or FaceTime, it complains of an invalid account or password.
I have tested the account on a Mac running Mountain Lion with the same result - iTunes login OK, iMessage login fails.
If I try to create a new iMessage account with the same email information it wont let me because it already exists, so the account is valid.
This would appear to be an issue with the iMessage account, but I can find no way of verifying or updating this.
Any suggestions??Had the same problem and found note '1588487 - Active Directory authentication failed with InfoDesignTool'
Problem solved for me. -
Fix for iMessage login error on mac using appleID
hi just fixed my imessage for mac
i know alot of people have this problem and thought this would help. if your having trouble siging in with your apple id or it looks like its taking ages and fails then go:
go to network preferences
advanced
dns
on the left with the servers add
8.8.8.8
it worked for me
i closed it then restarted then tried sending a messsage to my iphone using my number and it worked
try itHI,
DNS server are the servers dotted about the internet that convert your Browser sending requests for Apple.com to an IP number.
DNS stands for Domain Name System
Your ISP normally has at least two DNS servers and these tend to show in the router or modem automatically.
In some cases they will show up as greyed out number in System Preferences > Network > Advanced Button > DNS tab as well (depending on how the routing device gets them and other factors)
You can manually add these if required so that they are in Dark text.
What happens is that some DNS servers are better at resolving names than others.
To certain extent it depends where your local (ISP) DNS servers are in relation to the place they are looking for.
iChat uses DNS to make Video Chats and Audio Only chats more than it does for text chats.
It is also involved in finding the Apple Server that handles the fact that the Apple ID is going to be linked to iMessages activity. (it seems that some DNS Servers can't find this particular Apple Server)

Wi-Fi packet loss + iMessage 'activation' error
Hello
I have two problems:
- Still having WiFi problems after updating to 10.10.3. This is REALLY annoying... When will there be a fix for this core problem?? Everyone is talking about this. When I do a ping to 8.8.8.8, I get a lot of packet loss (around 50%). Most of the time it's in blocks (5 minutes down / 2 minutes up). I tried everything: rebooting router, rebooting computer, adding/removing WiFi in Network preferences, added different DNS, added manual IP,... Other Mac's in the network do not have this problem... It's the operating system.
- I recently changed the password of my Apple ID, now I cannot login to iMessage anymore. 'Cannot Sign In to iMessage'; 'An error occurred during activation. Try again.'. I found a fix via Google, people advice to use Chameleon... But I'd like to rely on official support. This issue is around since Mavericks ...
C'mon Apple... Go back to the philosophy of Jobs' dad: “He loved doing things right. He even cared about the look of the parts you couldn’t see.”. Start fixing this annoying issues for the community!

If your Mac supports Handoff try to disable it and check if there is any progress: System Preferences > General > and disable option Allow Handoff between this Mac and your iCloud devices.
Also, go to System Preferences > Network and remove Bluetooth PAN/DUN if you have these options on the list of your Network Services.
After above steps, reboot your Mac and test it again.

Try this steps first: If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support
If above won't work for you, then i would suggest to create a separate thread for this issue. Otherwise this one will only get messy and soon no one will even look at your thread.

Why does a Login Error occur: "AFP Client wants to use Keychain Login"?
I have three people in my house with separate logins. We are currently using two desktop G4s which are networked via 1000 Base T. When the users login to one of the Macs, they must enter their passwords twice. Once for the AppleShare login and then a second time for the KeyChain Login.
If I attempt to unify the passwords, which are exactly the same, I will get a login error: "AFP Client wants to use Keychain Login". At this point, a dialogue box will appear looking for a password, but not accepting any kind of text at all. All I can do is reset the Mac, go into my admin login and remove the login.keychain file from the local Library folder to get back into the User account.
In my attempts to fix this, I have removed every preference file with the word "login" in it and re-logged in without success. I have also used the Keychain Access software to administer Keychain First Aid without success. Finally, I have deleted the keychain login in Keychain Access without success. I have done all of these separately and together without success.
This is only happening on one Mac. The Mac that has no files on it. All working files are stored on the other Mac and it does not have the same problem at all.
This is not a huge problem, but it is annoying. I would appreciate it if anybody knows anything about this and could shine some light on the situation.Sorry about the delay from your last reply. I have been busy with work and studying for a licensing exam.
Anyway I tried the AppleJack Utility you suggested. It looked like it tidied up some things. But as for my particular issue, it did absolutely nothing.
Interestingly enough, you know when you aren't looking for something and that something just happens by accident? When I logged in the other day, I typed in the first login. The second dialogue came up immediately and I hit the cancel button instead of the OK button. When I was passed on to the Finder, the second login dialogue came up again. I typed in the password this time and checked the checkbox. When I relogged in, the problem vanished. I only waited this long to let you know to make sure the problem is gone and it is. I wish I would have thought of selecting the cancel button before. Sometimes solutions are simple like this one.
Thanks for your help. -
5213: Bad Oracle login error in OCISessionBegin() while running ttcacheuidp
Hi,
I am working on Oracle TimesTen Client: Oracle TimesTen 11.2.1.8.0
I am following this step: http://download.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/timesten/1121/quickstart/html/admin/cache_grid_create.html
I am in the step 4: 4. Associate the Oracle Cache Administration user with the Cache Database

The command failed.
What seems to be the issue?
I referenced this link: http://download.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/timesten/1121/doc/timesten.1121/e13069/proced.htm#TTREF237
And on the notes it says:
Notes
This procedure cannot be called from a Client/Server connection.
This procedure is available only for IMDB Cache.
The cache administration user ID and password cannot be set while either the cache agent or the replication agent are running.
The cache administration user ID cannot be reset while there are ASYNCHRONOUS WRITETHROUGH cache groups or AUTOREFRESH cache groups (with a state that is not equal to OFF) on the database.
What does: This procedure cannot be called from a Client/Server connection mean?
Is this the root cause of the problem or I am missing a step?
Thanks!I still get the same error. But I have figured out what is wrong. Just in case other users encounter the same errors, here's what I did:

I can't login from the desktop app - "Login error. Please contact the Admin."
1) Does anyone have the same problem as described below?
2) Does anyone know how to fix it?
When I try to "work online" from the desktop app, I get asked to log out of offline, then log into online. When I put in my username and password, it gives me the error "Login error. Please contact the Admin." I've clicked the link "Trouble logging in?" and followed instructions to reset my password, which I successfully reset to a new one. I still get the error.
I have a subscription to Adobe Story Plus and am working offline/online using the desktop app. I haven't logged in to sync my documents in about a month. My account is in good standing (paid 2 weeks ago according to my account transactions screen). I'm now trying to collaborate, so it's important that I be able to sync.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
JohnHi Rohit,
Thanks for your response. I've resolved the problem myself, and you may be
interested to know how in case it happens again with another user - I
thought maybe it was a versioning discrepancy and I was right (I assume).
However, I couldn't update my desktop software (or I couldn't figure out
how to update it) until I rebooted my machine, then Story went into an
auto-update sequence.
After it updated, it logged in and sync'd just fine. Classic "help"
question where the answer basically was: reboot. I shouldn't tried that
before I posted!
I hope that helps.
Thanks,
John

Cisco UCS Management Pack for System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2 Login Error
I have Cisco UCS 1.4 (3q) and just installed the MP v2.1 for Cisco UCS, however when I click on the "Management Pack Events" alert view in the SCOM console, there are error for event number 19900. The description of the error is as follows:
Description:
CISCO UCS R2 MP (https://10.x.x.x/nuova) [CISCO.UCS.R2.Proxy.LoadCache.ProbeAction.vbs] : CISCO UCS Login Error: Authentication failed (Code: 551)
I noticed that it's looking for the /nuova directory, but in order to login to our UCS environment, we usually just go to the IP address - so I'm wondering if that has something to do with it? I've verified that when going directly to the IP from Internet Explorer I can login using the opsmgr credentials we specifically created for this account. I've also gone through the process of creating a run-as account on the SCOM side and associated it with the correct profiles.
Any help is greatly appreciated.Troubleshooting has found out its user error, wrong password configured.

CA Forum: General
We are migrating from JD Edwards on AS400 to Microsoft Dynamics GP on SQL 2005. I can create and refresh reports without problem using sa as the login account in Crystal. When I use any of the users created in Dynamics GP (as they have to for users to access GP) I get a login error from the SQL server. This is using the same ODBC connection and I have taken some of the users and elevated there permission on the GP database and/or overall sql server to even dbo and sysadmin and still cannot get any login other than sa to work. Any sql GURUs out there that can tell me what I'm missing?
ThanksPost Author: dmccahanpppa
CA Forum: General
I have tried creating ODBC connections (and also found a business objects article on OLE DB and tried that) with SQL Authentication and also with windows. I have made sure my users have usernames in GP that are all lower case name and password. The only thing that is getting me close is to use windows authentication on the odbc connection, set the odbc connection to a specific sql database, and give the users windows read permissions to that database. As a domain admin this gives complete access. With the users the login error goes away but I only see stored procedures and not the tables or views. I'm trying to find the minimum access to give the users in windows to allow windows authentication to work.
What I don't understand is why this should be so difficult to find the correct answer on. I have the same issue on a very plain install (everything on the server, sql, gp, and crystal) with just microsoft's test company and data as I do the production system (gp and sql on one server and citrix client and crystal on another). I setup the test server (a couple of times blew the whole thing away and rebuilt following gp procedures) and consultants built the production environment. You would think Microsoft (since they blow their marketing horn about how Crystal Reports works with GP) or Business Objects would have the user and odbc setup for this documented.
Ok...so I'm a bit delusional.... -
IPhone deploy gets Login Error (Invalid username/password). Android works
Hi, we're developing an ADF Mobile app on JDeveloper 11.1.2.3 which does initial authentication against Weblogic.
The login & app works fine on Android, but fails when we deploy the same app to iPhone (iOS 5.0.1, but also 5.1, 6.0 & 6.1 in the Simulator).
Specific message is :
Login Error
Invalid username/password. If the problem persists, please contact your system administrator.
It's definitely on the network and reaching the login server, because when we shut down the server or make the network unavailable, the message reports "The login server is not reachable"
All I can think is it's possibly encrypting the password differently within iOS.
Not having much luck on Google or other searches, so any thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks
PeterI found a bit more information in the Weblogic Managed Server logs proving the login request reaches the server, but gives this error. Not much luck on google so, if this rings any bells for anyone thoughts are appreciated.
