I keep getting asked for  username and password on both IMAP and Exchange when on 3G network but not Wifi!

We are having serious issues with one of our Google Apps accounts. We have done everything we can think of to get it to work properly on 3G but for some reason it continually asks for the user's password no matter how many times we enter it. However, it does work on WiFi!!
The iPhone says "Cannot get mail, the username or password for USERNAME is incorrect."
This happens on both Exchange and on IMAP accounts. We have deleted the accounts and set them up again several times but to no avail.
It is also worth noting that I have exactly the same settings on my identical iPhone and have no problems whatsoever so we think it may be something with the google configuration.
Please help!!

Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • Why does Firefox now ask for my master password every time I check my gmail account? Sometimes, but not always, for my Yahoo mail account. Never did this before. Thank you.

    Don't know how to add any more details.

  • On my iphone, icloud is set to an apple id that i no longer use and i keep getting asked to enter a password. Cannot remember the password. When i try to re-set the password, it sends a email to a address no longer used. Will not accept any dob i enter

    I have icloud on my phone with an apple id that I no longer use. I keep getting asked to enter the password for this ID. However I can't remember the password.
    When I try to re-set the password, a e-mail will be send to an address I no longer use and can't access.
    I then try to answer the security questions, but the date of births I enter are not accepted
    Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
    This article provides more information about Activation Lock.

  • Keep getting asked for my password for email.  Says my POP server rejected my password.  How do I fix this?

    I keep getting asked for my password for email.  Says my POP server "pop.charter.net" rejected the password.  In the past I just went into my email and it came up automatically.

    In Keychain, in the Keychain window, select "login". In the category window, select passwords.
    In the name field, look for name of your outgoing server for that account (like smtp.mail.yahoo.com, outbound.att.net, or whatever outgoing server you have).
    Just highlight it and delete it. Delete any and all for that account.
    You also may want to check and make sure all your outgoing server settings are correct in Mail preferences. If any info is incorrect, it will not work. Sometimes providers change servers and you don't know about it. You may want to check that if the Keychain fix doesn't work.

    i cant install the new firefox 6 on my laptop because it keeps asking for the administrator password during the installation and i dont know what is it for this laptop

    I read a way on another forum to fix this problem. Right click on the setup.exe and select "Run as administrator" this should solve your problem.

  • Trying to link large file to email. keep getting asked for master pw to security device. I have changed master pw on firefox and TB but still same response.

    I have tried over and over to send this large file. I've never synced before so i got that all set up. Then asking for master passwork to security device. Don't think I had ever set up an account so did that and created password. When trying to send the email I ask to link it goes to 'box' and I authorize thunderbird to use use it. then it ask for master password and I type that in and it doesn't work. I have reset master pw for firefox and thunderbird and still can't get it to work. I really don't know what I am doing here so any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    In my previous response, I gave a link to this website page:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Master_password
    It contained some information about what to do if TB keeps asking for a 'Master Password' which was never set. This was an old bug that was resolved years ago, so it is surprising you are getting it assuming the Thunderbird Master Password was never set.
    However, your comments are confusing because they are conflicting; in your question you say:
    '' I have changed master pw on firefox and TB ''
    This implies you set a master password in Thunderbird and changed it, but in last comment you say you never defined it:
    '' I have used the Firefox direction to eliminate the master password, which I never defined in the first place,''
    I'm not sure what you mean by 'I have used the Firefox direction' - perhaps you mean the link I gave. As of course we are not talking about firefox :)
    So, at this point, it is hard to know what you did because you are posting conflicting information.
    Using info at the link, I presume you tried this:
    quote
    ''Thunderbird: Choose Tools -> Error Console, paste the expression: openDialog("chrome://pippki/content/resetpassword.xul") and press the Evaluate button. That will open a dialog asking you if you want to reset your password. ''
    quote
    ''If that doesn't work exit Thunderbird and delete the '''key3.db''' file in your profile.''
    Did you do this? You do not say if you did this.
    At no point does it say uninstall Mozilla Thunderbird program, so I do not know why you would do it. Uninstalling the Program has nothing to do with your Profile for very obvious reasons.
    '''More clearer instructions on how to delete the '''key3.db''' file.'''
    Make hidden files and folders visible:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
    The AppData folder is folder is a hidden folder; to show hidden folders, open a Windows Explorer window and choose "Organize → Folder and Search Options → Folder Options → View (tab) → Show hidden files and folders".
    Assuming your Profile was stored in the default place, it can be located here:
    * C:\Users\Windows user name\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\Profile name\
    Thunderbird must be closed before doing anything in the Profile folders.
    If you have since reinstalled Thunderbird, you can also use it to get quick access to your Profile folders.
    In Thunderbird
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * click on 'show folder' button
    * '''Close/Exit Thunderbird - this is important'''
    * Look for and delete this file : '''key3.db''' file.
    * Restart Thunderbird.

  • (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.

  • I'm trying to update my apps but I keep getting asked for my password to an email address I don't use how can I get rid of it

    I press update all apps, I get asked to input my password for my current appleID but then it pops up again asking for a password to an email address that I haven't used in years. Its never done this before what can I do?

    It tells me the old appleID has been disabled, I reset my password but the old ID keeps popping up asking for a password when I try to update my apps

  • Keep getting requests for a WPA password

    This problem only seems to have occurred since I got my new imac. We have a Belkin wireless router and I continuously get a small window opening asking for a WPA password.  I have been to the belkin website and followed various steps as best I could http://en-uk-support.belkin.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1669 where you can set your own password.  but the windows continue to pop up with requests for said password.  whenever I submit the password it mostly just says connection timeout. I keep submitting and submitting  and then occasionally (sometimes after several hours of trying) the window just disappears at which stage it DOES re-connect me to the www.    It`s all a bit baffling.  I have tried telephoning belkin directly but so far have just had the usual infuriating recorded messages with a list of options followed by sub options which don`t help and don`t include getting through to a real human being.   hence my posting here. Though I don`t hold out much hope of being able to resolve this one through the apple boards. but you never know,  Many thanks,   Mark

    A question: Does this dialogue  area where you have to enter your password also have a checkbox on it that asks you if you want your password saved to keychain?
    If so, uncheck it first, then enter your password and recheck the box.
    Not sure if this is a solution or not but I thought I'd throw my two cents worth in, if it's worth 2 cents.

  • Keep getting asked for access to login keychain

    Over the past few days I am cintinually being asked for my keychain password, this has just started recently and I cannot think of anything happening to change things.

    That Sounds to me, that you any time answered the question (ex. Installing the New iOS on your iPad/iPhone) 'would you use keychain to store your password' or so with 'yes'. Your devices are registered via your apple id. So apple send an request to your 'next/Other' Device to authorize the key.
    May that is what you see.
