I can't remember my password for the exchange account

I received my new phone and thought I had my exchange password at home, but can't find it or remember it. How do I reset or do I need to take my phone into the store?

Contact your IT dept. or delete the account on your phone. The Apple store can't help you.

Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

How to End the Error message: "enter the password for the exchange account"

i completed configure Exchange Account on my iPhone, but still show the error message: "enter the password for the exchange account"

make sure you don't have 2 step verification in gmail.
otherwise you need to follow
Signing in using application-specific passwords
The codes that you’ll get with 2-step verification don’t work with all applications. There are a few applications that use information from your Google Account (like the Gmail application on your phone, or Outlook) that require another type of code. These are called application-specific passwords.
Some devices and applications that use these special passwords include:
POP and IMAP email clients such as Outlook, Mail and Thunderbird
Gmail and Google Calendar on smartphones
ActiveSync for Windows Mobile and iPhone
YouTube Mobile on Apple devices
Cloud Print
Installed chat clients such as Google Talk and Adium
3D Warehouse, Sketchup, and installed applications
AdWords Editor
Sync for Google Chrome
Gmail Notifier
How to generate an application-specific password
Unlike a verification code that you receive from your phone or through Google Authenticator, application-specific passwords are generated. You don’t have to memorize them, ever - you simply generate a new one each time you need to sign into a particular application. Follow the steps below to generate your application-specific password:
Visit the Authorizing applications & sites page (pictured below) under your Google Account settings.
Under the Application-specific passwords section, enter a descriptive name for the application (label 1) you want to authorize, such as "AdWords Editor – Desktop," then click “Generate application-specific password" (label 2).
You'll then see the application-specific password you just created (3). You'll also see the name you wrote in for the device (4) and a link to Revoke (5) -- or cancel -- the code.
Once you click Done, you’ll never see that application-specific code again. But don't panic: You can generate a new one whenever you’re prompted for an application-specific password by a non-browser device or application -- even a device or application you’ve authorized before.
Using application-specific passwords
When prompted for a password when you sign in to a non-browser application or device that accesses your Google Account:
Enter your username.
Enter your application-specific password in the password field.
If your application has an option to remember your application-specific password or stay signed in, you can select that option so you won’t have to generate and enter a new application-specific password each time you access your account from this application or device.

I get the following message every time I open my contacts on my iphone or iPad : "Password Incorrect. Enter the password for the Exchange account "Exchange"". If I enter my password, it does not accept it. I don't even know what it means.

Hi StuNYC,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're seeing an alert message when opening Mail on your iOS devices. Do you have multiple email accounts setup on the devices? Take a look at the article below, it provides suggestions that will resolve most issues that cause an alert like that to appear in when starting the Mail app.

What is an Exchange account? When I open the email app I get the message "Password Incorrect. Enter the password for the Exchange account "Exchange""

An Exchange account is an e-mail account serviced my a Microsft Exchange server... Typically a corporate e-mail account. It used to be possible to configure a free gmail account as an Exchange account, but it is no longer possible to set one up that way.

What do you do if you can't remember your password for the auto updates?!!

Should be the same as your log-in password.

I deleted my old email address and now I can't acess icloud because I can't remember my password to the icloud account. It is not allowing me to log in obviously and now my old email is showing under the settings now do i need to reset the iphone?

I deleted my old email account and when i went to change everything on my iphone it still shows the old email even though i created a new apple id. I also can't remember the password and now can't access icloud. Do i need to reset the phone?

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

"Password Incorrect - Enter the password for the Exchange account:"

I keep getting this error. But I don't have an exchange account set up with the phone. I deleted my exchange email and calendar syncing from my old job but I still constantly get this error, like 30-40 times a day. Anyone have any suggestions?
I've tried logging in with my old account info, but of course that is deactivated and doesn't work.
A piece of information that might help; I remember having to install something that Apple released right after the iPhone 4 launch that was supposed to fix Exchange authentication, so I removed the profile update to see if that would fix the problem but it didn't. (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3398)

I'm pretty sure I just set it up by hand
Well, I suspect a profile got installed on your phone & now you can't delete it. That's why you're getting that popup. If my suspicions are correct, your only choice to fix this would be to restore your phone as a "new" device in itunes, followed by syncing your content back to your phone. All data on your phone will be erased, including this now invisible profile. I know of no other way to fix this.

I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

For some reason or other I can't remember my password for my apple id and when I go to reset it I can't find the email they have sent me.

For some reason or other I can't remember my password for my apple id and when I go to reset it I can't find the email they have sent me.I think they are sending it to my apple email [email protected] which I can't access as they are telling me my password is wrong and send me an email message to this email address which I cannot remember the password for. I am in a vicious circle.Support have emailed me and stated they can't change it?!

Sign in at http://icloud.com with the new ID and password and confirm that your data is still all there.
Then sign out in System Preferences>iCloud then sign back in with the new ID and password. Your data will disappear from your Mac when you sign out, but will reappear when you sign back in.

I am on an Adobe reader and I don't remember my password for the contact signature and the Preparer signature .... How can I reset?

I am on an Adobe Reader and I don't remember my password for the contact signature of my name (also the preparer signature of my name but I remember they were one and the same)

Hello ZarthasOne,
Snapfish.com and eprintcenter.com are connected, so it may be that you have a snapfish.com account that you do not remember having. If you go to snapfish.com and try to log in it will give you an option that says forgot password. Snapfish will send you a temorary password. Log into snapfish.com with the temorary password and it will let you reset the password to something that you can remember easily. You will then use the email and password you used to log into snapfish.com to log into eprintcenter.com
