HT2954 keeps asking for password when checking for mail and says its wrong password

my mobile me account that i converted to i cloud was working then it has now stoped... it keeps saying the password is wrong but it works to login into i cloud

Hi Roger,
I think they're slowly nudging people to switch, .mac & MobileMe are going away about July, may as well set it up now.
I understand .mac mail will still come through.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP, don't delete the old account yet...
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
          ▪          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
          ▪          SSL Required: Yes
          ▪          Port: 993

  • Running adobe captivate keeps asking for flash even though its already installed

    running adobe captivate keeps asking for flash even though its already installed

    iTunes will ask you to enter your password when buying songs for each browsing "session". This wouldn't explain why you are being asked to enter it every 3 minutes though.
    I would suggest logging out of your Apple ID on iTunes and logging back in. Also, you may verify that your computer is "Authorized" for use with your iTunes content.
    To do this on a Mac, go to the "Store" tab at the top of the screen and click "Authorize this Computer"

  • Keeps asking for my hotmail password and saying its wrong stopped recieving mail

    keeps asking for my hotmail password and have stopped recieving mail

    Mail asks for your password when it cannot contact the Server. It presumes [usually incorrectly] you told it the wrong password, and asks for a better one. The one you enter replaces the one that is stored.
    But often the reason it cannot connect is that the Mail Server holding your emails is temporarily DOWN.
    Ignore those requests and take that account Online again later. 
    (You may have to re-enter the password, because it often clobbers your good password with the one you enter, and sometimes does not store ANY password after that stupid dialog box.)

  • Acrobat Pro XI subscription keeps asking for license and I don't think the subscription has one. Help?

    Just bought the subscription which doesn't have a license serial number. Adobe keeps asking for it. Help?

    Looks like it finally stopped as it sent me a message that do I want to keep using the trial or license. I hit license and all seems good for now.

  • When I want to connect to my macbook from my imac eventhough it shows up in the finder it still keeps asking for username and password!

    there is a flashing window which keeps asking:   "enter your name and password for the server "192.168.1.102" (which is my Macbook's ip address)". choices are:
    connect as: Guest or Registered User;  Name and password;  at the bottom: cancel or connect....
    whatever I do it keeps coming back! I select: guest , click connect; it says "the server 192.168.1.102 does not allow Guest access".
    I select Registered User; enter Name and password, the window disappears for a second without any popups but comes back up again .... "enter your name and password for the server........."
    Just to see what response I would get I wrote different/wrong name and password;  it said   "you entered an invalid username or password please try again".... and then I click OK ....
    and I am back to square one! I click cancel same thing ....window keeps coming back up asking me to "enter name and password for the server......."
    Meanwhile when I open Finder; under SHARED I see 2 entries: "192.168.1.102" connected as "Ni...  ZA..." (My user name)  and "Ni.... Macbook" which has the same ip address as above and also connected as nidra... my other user name.
    All the sharing files are on; security/firewall is off...
    I just bought the iMac, 21.5 inch, 2.5 ghz, intel core quad i5, 500 gb

    On your MB, go to system preferences>user and enable the guest account and login to that account
    On your MB, go to system preferences>user and create a new user for remote access, choose a password and login to that account.
    Either of these should work, if not, post back.

  • Outlook 2007 keeps asking for username and password

    We have a new exchange 2007 SP1 server but occasionally the outlook clients will ask for the username and password.
    Is this a bug or does anyone have a fix?

    Hi Edwin,
    I have an SBS 2008 install with a similar problem.  Using a GoDaddy Cert.  Worked fine prior to me running an update to the server.  So I think we are getting some where here.
    Symptoms
    Win Server 2008 (Or SBS 2008)
    Exchange 2007
    Outlook Anywhere Enabled (RPC-HTTP)
    SSL Cert Signed by GoDaddy
    Outlook 2007 Clients
    Outlook 2007 Clients show Login prompt to the 'remote.example.com' cancel or disable keeps poping it up after some time.
    RPC-DIAG shows no problems
    Client not configured for RPC-HTTPs
    Outlook 2003 Clients unaffected
    Things I have tried:
    Basic  & Windows Authentication on the EWS Virtual Directory in IIS7 on Exchange 07 (SBS 08) box - No Joy
    New Profile on Outlook 2007 win XP SP3 - No Joy
    New Profile on Outlook 2003 win XP SP3 - Works, but rest of office running Outlook 2007
    Disabling Outlook Anywhere  - No Joy
    Visiting https://remote.example.com on affected Outlook 2007 win XP SP3 Machine - No Error Pages, or dialog boxes, Internet Explorer sees it as a valid Cert
    Any KB Articles, or notices?? I have two end-user with a possible third (Business owner) who are getting cranky. :(
    EDIT: Found a fix for me potentially via - http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrdeploy/thread/c1e72d2a-d360-4ff0-b2f5-1a9ae149df18 and http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.exchange.admin&mid=00d4a681-f588-4eed-b4f8-5c3645e7376c&sloc=en-us

    I had an issue similar to this. Win2k3 Ex07. All of my Outlook 2007
    users were getting prompted over and over for the username and
    password. It wasn't checking the certificate that they had installed
    via internet explorer. To fix the problem, I opened IIS on the
    Exchange server and checked the following directories under the
    default website (the root site(default web site), oab, autodiscover).
    Under the directory security tab, click Edit in the Secure
    Communications section. I had the require SSL checked and the 128bit
    encryption, but under Client Certificates, it was set to ignore. Once
    I changed that to Accept for each of the folders, stopped and started
    IIS, I stopped being prompted all the time for credentials. Hopefully
    this will help someone in the future.
    Just confirmed fixed for client!!!

  • Since upgrading to Mountain Lion LibreOffice keeps asking for Java and crashing.

    Java is needed only for Base which I don't use, so I disable Java in LibreOffice preferences, but it keeps asking if I want to enable it. In addition the preferences aren't  being remembered so sometimes LibreOffice crashes when I start to do anything and it has to recover documents. Its all a big nuisance. I have NeoOffice which seems OK, but I'd like to have the option of LibreOffice which I have used for some time. Any thoughts?

    Did you install the last Java update 006 _37?

  • Lightroom 5 Upgrade Keeps Asking For Key and Loses Presets

    I upgraded from Lightroom 3 to 5 on my MacBook Pro a few months ago. Every so often (about 4 times now) when I launch LR, it asks me to reenter my serial number (activation key). This doesn't bother me except every time this happens, I lose all of my user presets.
    Has anyone else had/fixed this issue? Is there a way to backup all your presets and preferences?

    So I think I may have fixed this. The problem it seems was with the original CS3 which wasn't loading properly - due to a licensing error it seems.
    I followed a blog post which had about 8 different steps to fix it, trying them in order, the only one that worked was renaming a database file which seemed to trigger it to load properly, and ask for hte serial. I popped this in and CS3 was working again. Loaded CS5 and input hte new serial, that seems to have sorted it.
    On a side note, on both ths version and a colleagues CS4-CS5 updated version it seems that updates are disabled? - They're just greyed out witn no option to run them :/

  • ITunes keeps asking for authorization and won't close

    I have been having trouble with iTunes ever since I upgraded to Mountain Lion.  iTunes will open and repeatedly ask for authorization.  I've tried resetting the authorization, using terminal to do it, deleting folders, etc.  I would like to try and uninstall iTunes, but I cannot get iTunes to close. Not even force quit will cause it to stay closed long enough to delete it and reinstall it.  Then there's the problem where it appears to have lost my library completely...which may be part of this issue or a separate issue.  Considering it started at the same time, I'm guessing it's just another facet of the issue.  I'd love to just reinstall iTunes, but I can't get it to not open and/or close.  I am about ready to throw the MacBook in the garbage, because this is the sort of problems I expect with Windows, not Apple.  Any ideas would be appreciated to save my laptop and sanity.

  • TS3231 Aperture keeps asking for serial # and previous serial # again, and again, and again.... Should I take up Adobes offer?

    As above, upgrarded to Mountain Lion and no end of problems with Aperture.. every time I open the thing it asks for Serial Number, then asks for the previous versiosn serial number (as was an upgrade), then is all OK till I close it and open it again... a bit like the movie (can not think of the title of the movie...ahh Hog Day or ???), but he woke every morning to the same morning:)  Any suggestions or fixes or points of discussion on this would be greatly appreciated.
    I have used FCP since it's inception, and now have emails asking me to "swap @ 40% discount" on a subscriber basis to ALL Adobe's software... I want Aperture to work (well open each time without me having to look up both serial numbers time and time and time again!!!
    If I can get Aperture working again, maybe even try the new FCP.. but hec... your work on many files, then have to start all over again with serial numbers!!
    Help appreciated
