However, recently, I keep being asked for password on my ***** address.
Only on my macbook. (which, btw, has a version number your drop down doesn't offer as a choice. I had to putt 9.4)
When I look up the account the "password" is a long string of gobbledygook. Something I would never do.
But when I attempt to use that pw I still can't get in.
I have no trouble accessing that email account on my mac mini. Just on the macbook.

Maiko,
I'm confess I'm still trying to get a handle on your problem. You do a fantastic job of describing it ... but I'm just trying to picture it accurately in my head.
I think, were I in your shoes, I'd begin by looking at what the debug page has to say for the specific destination in which you're interested in fixing. In other words, I'm not clear on where, exactly, this destination points ...
Destination illinois.edu.1945806043
Is that your site, or the division within your site that you want to fix? "Normally", you do not need to specify a site handle to get to your site within your transfer CGI ... if you say "uillinois.edu", it's enough to transfer your users to iTunes U ... but every site still has a handle, and you could, if you wanted to, actually specify it in your transfer CGI. For example, this:
Destination uic.edu.1139051993
is for my entire site ... it's my site handle. Whereas this:
Destination uic.edu.1991288441
is for a division within my site ... but it's impossible to tell the difference between "site" and "division" from just the handle (I mean, if I didn't say "this is a site" and "this is a division", there'd be no way for you to know). So when I look at your creds and permissions on your debug page, I can't quite tell if they give you download access for your site, or for the specific division you want to fix. If you could open the debug page with your division as destination (or confirm that that's what we're looking at), it'd rule out some things.

  • Keep being asked for password: Mail Help unhelpful

    Last week I had to trash my keychains/passwords on the recommendation of Skype help. It solved my immediate problem but now I get asked for a password every time I launch Mail.
    I've tried Mail help and got the following advice:
    "To change the keychain lock settings:
    Open Keychain Access, located in Applications/Utilities (or click the link provided on this page).
    Select your login keychain, choose Edit > "Change Settings for Keychain 'login'."
    To reduce the number of requests for your keychain password, deselect the option for the number of minutes of inactivity before the keychain is locked, or increase the number of minutes. You can also deselect "Lock when sleeping" option."
    Trouble is, I see nothing that resembles a "login keychain".
    Is the above the advice I need. If yes, what/where is my login keychain; if no, what now?

    Thanks for the feedback. This means the login keychain itself was "there", just inaccessible for some reason. The actual keychains are stored in one of the following locations, depending on their applicability:
    /System/Library/Keychains/
    /Library/Keychains/
    ~/Library/Keychains/
    login, in particular, being different for each user, is stored in ~/Library/Keychains/.
    On my system, the System keychain is stored in /Library/Keychains/. Do you see a System keychain in more than one of the aforementioned locations? Maybe that's the reason you see more than one instance of it in Keychain Access.
    I'm wondering now if the problem was just that there was something wrong with the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.keychainaccess.plist preferences file. Guess we'll never know what happened here.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

  • Not able to open mail from my mac, gmail repeatedly asking for password. but using same password able to open gmail on safari

    not able to open mail from my mac, gmail repeatedly asking for password. but using same password able to open gmail on safari

    okay well they got me to take out some .plist files to see if that would help it didn't. I'm not sure what ones that they deleted for my self maybe someone here would be abel to tell you what ones to take out but didn't work the one that came close to working was this going into keychain and deleting the account(s) then reading them again.
    if you are to do this please back up first with Time Machine. You can do this with a usb drive.
    Okay so go back to where you had internet accounts and make sure mail is shut. click the - on the account your having problems with then quit system preferences.
    Okay so then press cmd and space bar at the same time then type 'keychain access' into the search then click on 'keychain access'
    once it is open go to the top of the window and put your email address that you are having problems with.
    once you have put in your full email, have a look at what comes up i deleted things in the kind colome with 'internet password' and anything with under name that had smtp.gmail.com or imap.gmail.com so it would look like this, map.gmail.com - internet password.
    right click and delete them. make sure not to touch any other files that dont say them things on them.
    Once you have done this quit keychain access and then restart the computer, once the computer is restarted go back to system preferences and internet accounts and re-add the account.
    Hope this helps. if something is not clear just ask.

  • I keep being asked for my pop.mail password for my user address. Can you help please.

    I keep being asked for my pop.mail password and I do not know what is meant. Can you help. I cannot receive or send messages on thunderbird. You say you have sent a reset message to me but it has not come through. I am searching messages on my ipad. I am on the verge of abandoning Thunderbird and continuing to use my ipad and yahoo account. Thank you for your help in advance.

    Thunderbird has nothing to do with administering your email password and is not going to send you anything. I am not even sure where you requested that something be sent to you unless it is for the password to this forum which has nothing to do with your email.
    Your email provider would have a link to reset your password on their email help page.
    I would go to your providers web mail page and see if your username and password work thee. if they do then you might have incorrect server settings causing the password error.

  • The bookmarks in my drop-down menu do not appear when I try to "organize bookmarks". When I try to bookmark a page, the folders in the drop-down menu do not appear as choices.

    The trouble started when I transferred applications from my old computer. When I click "bookmarks", all my bookmarks are there. When I try to "Organize Bookmarks", it acts like I have no bookmarks. When I try to "Bookmark this page", it does not show all the folders that are in the drop-down menu. There are a number of bookmark files in the appdata\mozilla\firefox\profiles area, none of which are complete. I tried a backup and restore in the organize menu and a backup was created, but I don't know what was backed up. I suspect nothing was backed up. When I clicked a restore, nothing happened.

    I'm not familiar with Windows 7, but... is it possible there is a permissions problem with your profile folder, or read-only set on any database files?

  • HT1725 in app purchase - keep getting asked for password

    in an app I am unable to download an in app purchase ... says it has already been purchased tap to download ... can't complete purchase ... as a result I keep getting asked for my apple password ...

    You may wish to check with the developer. But try a reset first:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • My phone indicates I have app updates but when I try to install then a box appears and asks for my PW. I put in my PW which i verified is correct and the updates circle a while then go back to update box and nothing happens What's going on?

    I have an I Phone 4 OS is 7.1.2. The phone indicates I need to update some apps. I go to the update screen select either all or an individual  app. I select the update box. I am then asked to enter my PW. I do so and select OK. The update circle spins for a while the goes back to saying update. If I repeat the process the same thing happens. I know my PW is correct any ideas?

    I have the same problem.  I have a store ID my family all used to buy things.  I have a different icloud id for me and icloud backups.  Store account is setup properly, and I can download new apps.  It does not ask for a password for these as the phone is signed into the store account.  You can delete an app and reinstall it (using same store account) and it will reinstall no problem.
    The only problem I found with this is some apps I'd previously download for free are no longer free. Once upon a time my store list would show me an icon that an app had been downloaded before (think its the cloud symbol).  Now there is no indication of this.
    Also seems like something is wrong with the store account.  When I tried logging in to type this reply with message with my store ID it immediately gave me an error message and told me the link was possibly outdated.  But logging in with my icloud ID this message will load.  Try again on store ID, error message.  Even though we can log into our store accounts via https://appleid.apple.com/  and manage the account...something seems broken with how its attached to our App store.  (I'm at work so not able to log into itunes with store ID and see what happens)

  • My iPad has stopped asking for my apple I'd password when downloading apps.  I want it to ask for password because my kids keep downloading apps without asking.  How do I rectify this?

    My apple I'd has stopped asking for my password when downloading apps to my iPad.  I want it to ask every time.  I edited it unknowingly and I need to change it back.  Please help! Thx

    Assuming that you've got the relevant iOS version on the iPad, then you can change it from a 15 minute period during which it doesn't need to be re-entered to immediately via Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password

    Have you deleted OS 9 to free up space? You might have accidentally deleted Keychain in the process if you did. I don't know if its possible, but you might have. Have you been having problems like this in the past?

  • (passwordless ssh) I keep getting asked for password

    I've been trying to set up passwordless ssh to my webhost, but it keeps asking for my user password (please note "password" is to be distinguished from "passphrase").
    I've set up keychain and x11-askpass, and it asks me for my passphrase when I log in after a fresh boot, so no problems there.

    It looks like it's sending the key just fine, but the server is asking for the next authentication method.  It could be possible that the server doesn't support key-based connections, or that your public key on the server is invalid.

  • Verified new email address on Apple ID, but keep getting asked for password for old address

    Months ago, I changed my Apple ID to reflect my new email address.  I received and verified the new address and deleted the old one from my Apple ID account page.  When I log in, there is no mention of my old address, and my new email address is recorded as the primary one.  However whenever I am asked for my Apple ID when I try to change or buy anything, the email address that comes up is my old one.  Needless to say no password I enter works, so there are many things that I'm currently unable to do.  This is driving me nuts.  Any ideas, please?

    Did you change the email address used in your existing Apple ID or did you create a new Apple ID with the new email address?
    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.
