I can't get Thunderbird to recognize the password to the gmail account I am trying to add.
I am trying to add a gmail account to Thunderbird that is already hosting several gmail accounts. No matter what I do, I can't get Thunderbird to recognize the password. I admit, I got is wrong a few times, but I did get the right one, and it was typed in perfectly several times, as well as copy and pasted. The password worked fine to log into the account directly, but not into Thunderbird. I tried changing the password, and that did not work either. I have tried adding this account in Windows 8.1 as well as Ubuntu 14.04, and the results have been the same. In Ubuntu, I tried adding another account I needed added, and that went without a hitch. The only think I can think of is the address I am trying to add is linked to a email address for a website being transferred to me that is hosted by Yahoo and its business mail. I tried adding the yahoo account directly, but I add the same issues with passwords, but I suspect most of you know that is because Yahoo is simply sucking more and more in an attempt to become irrelevant.
I cannot believe the swiftness of your the help on this forum, within seconds you guys fixed the problem, and the account was added with no further issues. The people on this forum rock!!!!!
I am now beginning to suspect it indeed had to do with that first lot of wrong passwords.

I can't get sync to recognize my password. I have reset it over 10 times in the last hour.
I'm trying to get all of my bookmarks, passwords, etc from my old laptop to a new one. I'm trying to use sync to do that. Maybe that was a mistake. I've managed to link both devices, but every time I try to sync I'm told that my password is wrong. I have reset the password from my old computer and my new computer about 12 times. I'm always told that I'm entering the wrong password. Well, except for that one time that I managed to link a device. But after that my password failed to work another 7 times.
hello cl092, unfortunately there are currently authentication issues with the sync server - the admins are investigating this issue. maybe keep an eye on this thread to get updates when sync is restored to working order again: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/966368

Can't get iTunes to recognize library on external HD
I have been using my work computer as my main machine to run and store my iTunes. My library got too big so I moved it onto an external HD and pointed iTunes to it. Everything was working fine until my computer had to be reformatted recently. I reinstalled iTunes and went through the steps to point it to my hard drive, and nothing. For the life of me I can't get iTunes to recognize my library on the hard drive. I looked for a while in the discussions, but couldn't find anything that addresses my problem specifically. I'm dying at work without my music... Help!

iTunes keepes a database about your Music called iTunes Library.itl, it is normally in a folder called iTunes. When you use an external drive, you can choose to keep the library database in the iTunes folder on your c: drive or you can move it to the external drive. It is vital to know which you did.
The critical question is - do you have an iTunes folder on your external drive containing your library file - iTunes Library.itl?
If you do and you do the shift key start correctly, you can select choose a library and navigate to the iTunes folder on the external drive and choose iTunes library.itl.
Here is some help on the shift key start:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304447
If you kept your iTunes library database in the iTunes folder on your c: drive and you did not back it up, then you must start again with a new library. You can put your music in it from the external drive with File>>Add folder to Library, but you loose your counts ratings and playlists.

I have changed my apple id on the manage my apple id page. For some reason, the id didn't change on my macbook air. My iCloud still registered my old email id and I can't get it to recognize my correct id. Any ideas? Thanks!
Hi Baem_leeds
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you change your Apple ID you will need to sign in with the new information or password the next time you use an Apple service or feature that uses Apple ID. If you have multiple devices that use features and services that require an Apple ID, you will need to sign in again on each device.
The links below will provide additional information:

My apps are not showing-up in the iTunes library but they are present in the apps folder. How can I get iTunes to recognize their presence?
Library-Apps-All (only three of several hundred appear).
Apps are still present in Users-Music-Mobile Applications
I am running iTunes 11.0, OS X 10.8.2 on a Mac Pro.
Ran Disk Utility, Techtool, Disk Warrior and then reinstalled Mountain Lion, updated it and repaired permissions. No change.
There is a file that says 'iTunes Library (damaged), which is the iTunes Database file. How can that file be re-created?
Any technical help on replacing that file with a new, fresh one would be appreciated!It has always been very basic to maintain a backup of media and other important files. If you chose to reinstall the OS without having a backup, well that just is not smart.
If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, iTunes purchases can be redownloaded via iCloud. Simply log into the iTunes store, select purchases, purchase history and redownload the content.
If you are not in the US.... well, seems you just learned and important and possibly expensive lesson. -
How can I get iMovie to recognize the external camera?
iMAC running OSX 10.6.8 recognizes external HD Camera hardware, but iMovie fails to recognize the device. I can copy files "manually" using Finder, but cannot import them directly into iMovie. How can I get iMovie to recognize the camera? I have already re-booted all devices and tried multiple USB ports. In all cases the OS recognizes the camera, but iMovie does not.
OK This camcorder is a fine camcorder. I have an earlier model of a similar camcorder from Panasonic. However, this newer model has one problem. It is not compatible with iMovie if you shoot at the highest quality mode, (which is 60P or 50P - which might be called 28MBPS mode). If you shoot 30P or 30i (even 60i) it will import to iMovie. Also, iMovie can handle 1280x720P60 and P50.
It will definitely work on iMovie 11. It should probably work on iMovie 09. I doubt this camera will be recognized at all on iMovie 08, but it is worth a try. To see which iMovie you have, click iMovie/About and check the version. 9.04 would be iMovie 11. (9.08 is the current version, but it will not run on OSX 10.6.8). 8.06 would be iMovie 09. 7.1.4 would be iMovie 08.
OK So how to work around this limitation?
1) If you have Final Cut Pro X ($300) or can justify buying it, it will import 60P and 50P from this camera. However, if this seems a little pricey to you, keep reading.
2) If you set your camera to record in 1080P30 and shoot a short clip, then iMovie should see the camera. Then I would suggest using iMovie import screen to create a CAMERA ARCHIVE of your camera. This will copy to your Mac the entire contents of the video files on your camera. You will need them later. I am assuming you have some valuable footage on the camera that you would like to have.
3) Going forward, the simplest thing is to shoot in 1920x1080P30 and use iMovie normally. The biggest advantage of P60 or P50 is when you need really high quality slow motion effects. In other words, after you edit your movie, everything is converted to P30 or P25 anyway.
4) If you want to retrieve the 1080P50 or 1080P60 clips that you have shot, then there are a couple of apps you can buy to convert them to a form that iMovie can edit. Two such apps are ClipWrap and Voltaic HD. There are also various free apps, but I cannot vouch for them. Do a search on google and you may find some that work. -
Can't get Netflix to recognize an iTunes purchase keeps coming us with "the credit card information that you entered does not appear to be valid'? Netflix says not them?
The message you received indicates that the phone is locked to a carrier other than the one for which you have a SIM. You'll need to take the issue up with Apple. Nothing you do with iTunes is going to make a difference.
I'm quite surprised that the UK Apple Store replaced a U.S. purchased phone. They usually won't.
Best of luck. -
Can't get iphone to recognize itunes on my computer. do i have to use the original cord to connect? i can't find the cord. please advise.
Do you mean that iTunes doesn't recognize your phone when you plug it into your computer using the usb to dock cable? If so, see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538. (And yes, you need to use the usb to dock cable that came with your phone. If you dont' have it you'll have to buy another one.)

My iPhone keeps saying No SIM. How can I get it to recognize the SIM card?
TRy removing the sim card wipe it clean then insert it again. Your sim card tray might be dusty. Another option is turning your airplane mode on and off.
btw, is your network signal strong in the area where you are currently? Ask ATT if there is any area outage -
Okay I use iPhoto 6 on an older mac and don't want to upgrade past 10.4.11. Can I upgrade iPhoto without the newer operating system? For the life of me I can't get iPhoto to recognize my camera reliably - although it does sometimes. Any advice, help?
The latest version of iPhoto which can operation with OS X 10.4.11 is iPhoto 7 which is part of iLife 08. You might be able to find a copy of iLIfe 08 on Amazon.com or Ebay.com.
iLife 08's full system requirements are:
Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 processor
iMovie ’08 requires a Mac computer with an Intel processor, a Power Mac G5 (dual 2.0 GHz or faster), or an iMac G5 (1.9 GHz or faster)
iDVD ’08 requires 733MHz or faster processor
512 MB of RAM; 1 GB recommended; high-definition video requires at least 1 GB of RAM
3 GB of available disk space
DVD drive required for installation

Correct.
" How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer? "
Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod.
