  • Dumb mistake, now mail won't recognize password

    I'm a Verizon DSL customer and use my Apple Mail.app for all my mail. I just was on the Verizon site updating some personal info and saw there was an upgrade for a Verizon/Yahoo deal. I did the upgrade but, like many companies, their set up was not working correctly with my Imac (G4 Imac - 3 years old). After going through the whole set up process and not liking the results, I discontinued the upgrade. It had linked my Verizon account to my Yahoo account. I reverted back by unlinking Verizon from Yahoo on the web based account management page (Verizons page). BUT NOW MY MAIL.APP WON'T RECOGNIZE MY PASSWORD! I didn't change my password! The prompt says:
    "The SMTP server “outgoing.verizon.net” rejected the password for user “(my name)”
    Please re-enter your password, or cancel."
    I've already tried going into my account and typing in my password but it's being stubborn and won't accept it as the correct password!! What happened and what can I do to fix this?
    Vanessa

    Thanks Allan but I tried many times deleting and re-entering my SMPT, no luck. It's funny, I've always been able to access my e-mail on Verizon's web based site, it's the same e-mail that's accessible by my Mail.app. I logged into my web based Verizon mail with my same log-in information that is saved in my Mail.app. I was able to log-in everytime, so my password is still being accepted by Verizon's web based mail. I have a sub account in my Apple Mail.app with different user name but same password and IT IS RECEIVING AND SENDING MAIL. That should be a big clue to those of you who know more about this than me...lol!

  • Won't recognize password

    I'm trying to network my HP Officejet 6600 with an AirPort hub. The printer recognizes the network, but it won't accept the password! It should recognize any combination of letters and numbers, correct? I have not had any trouble connecting any other device to this network. Please help!

    Hi @ArtSlave,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!  I understand you are trying to setup your HP Officejet 6600 on your Network with an Apple AirPort hub, however it is not recognizing the password. Yes, it should recognize and numbers and character's, please keep in mind it would still be case sensitive.
    Take a look here: Setting Up Your HP Printer on a Network with Apple AirPort
    If you are still unable to get the Apple AirPort to recognize your password, I suggest contacting Apple Support:
    AirPort + Wi-Fi Support
    I hope this helps!
    Thank you,

  • MBP won't recognize passwords; reboots in safe mode.

    1.5 year old MBP started typing capitals without Caps lock on.  I shut down and the MBP came up in safe mode but wouldn't recognize my or my wife's password.  Please help.  Wife already lost hard drive on a MS laptop this week...it's been a tough week.

    Steve, you were exactly right.  Some salt caused the shift key to stick which was the proximate cause of the problem.  Good Job Buddy.

  • Macbook won't recognize password!!

    I have a Linksys Wireless-G broadband router model no. WRT54G. It has connected the main PC with another PC, but I recently got a macbook laptop, and it will not connect. It found the signal, but will not recognize my router password. Does anyone know a way to fix this?

    if you use 64 bit WEP encryption on your router and 128 (i believe is the number) on your Mac that it will work.  Give that a try, but WEP is easiliy broken into, so if you are protecting your network against anyone other than the normal user I'd suggest switching security measures.

  • Updating from OS X 10.2.8 - System won't recognize password

    I recently updated to OS X 10.5.6 directly from 10.2.8. The clerk at the Apple store didn't think that there would be a problem make this large of a leap, but after installing and rebooting, my system would not recognize my existing password. I was able to log in through the installation disc and changed the password, but when I logged back in, it would not accept the changed password (although the hint that I added when I changed the password showed up after three tries, so I have to assume that the changes were accepted and that the system simply isn't making the connection between what I enter as my password and what the password really is).
    Any advice on what I can do to get back into my system? (And yes, I'm aware of all of the 'stupid user' issues, such as typing with caps lock on ... I made sure that the problem is not due to user error.)
    I also do not have access to the old OS disks, so I can't reinstall the old operating system even if I COULD get into my system to do so.

    That's what I'm saying: I did reset my password through the installation disc, but the system still would not accept this new password. I tried this multiple times with a variety of different passwords — both simple and complex. It made no difference.
    Any other ideas?

  • Importing problem-iCal won't recognize .csv files

    I've recently upgraded to 10.4.9 from 10.3.9 on my Power PC iMac G5. The old version of iCal had no problem seeing downloaded .csv files and importing them. The new version won't see them or import them. Under 10.3.9, all I had to do was double click on the downloaded .csv file and it would import all events into iCal. Now, nothing happens. I'm a basic user and don't know about scripting or anything else. Any help?

    YES! SUCCESS!
    I found two ways of doing this. After searching the net, I found this online app on this guys website that worked the best:
    http://manas.tungare.name/projects/yahoo2ical/
    It says it's a "yahoo" csv converter, but it worked fine for my outlook csv file.
    The other option is, if you have an account with google, like a gmail account, you can use their google calendar to import your csv file. Once you've done that, you can subscribe to that calendar you imported via the "share" option. Just get the .ics address. This took a couple tries on google's site to import, but it worked.

  • Ical won't accept password from att

    how to get ical to accept att pasword

    I have the same problem. I went to the apple store and they told me to Reset the iPad (That means every downloaded app will be deleted so they've advised me to back it up on my iCloud account or in iTunes account using my PC) I dont wanna do it since I can still use my BB Curve mobile hotspot. It connects to my ipad by disabling the password of the hotspot. I havent tried disabling the hotspot password on my iPhone 5 (I don't know how to do it) I haven't tried reseting the iPad yet but it might helpful to you.

  • ICal won't remember passwords correctly

    We're having problems with iCal not saving login information for subscribed calendars correctly.
    At my workplace each employee publishes their calendars to a private server (Not MobileMe). Each employee then subscribes to the calendars of the other employees as needed.
    The calendars are password protected. We maintain an internal web page with a list of the calendars available, and links that the employees can click on.
    When adding a new calendar, a employee clicks on a link webcal://server/Calendars/name.ics in Safari, which causes iCal to launch an ask if you want to subscribe to the calendar.
    After clicking subscribe, iCal asks for a username and password.
    Then, you get the options window where you can choose a name for the calendar and set auto-update options and so on. The calendar has in the mean time been downloaded and is displayed in the background.
    On the next refresh of the calendar, a warning sign appears next to the calendar.
    At this point, a new entry has been added to the keychain. The address is http://server/Calendars/name.ics, and the username and password is correct as verified by using Apple's keychain tool.
    Clicking on the warning sign in iCal results in a request for a username and password. The message is (translated to English) "Updating the calendar "Name" failed. The server rejected the username or password".
    According to the server logs, it looks as if iCal tries to connect without a username and password after the calendar has been downloaded the first time.
    I've found two solutions:
    1. Change the address of the subscribed calendar to webcal://username@server/Calendars/name.ics
    2. Click on the warning sign, and type in the username and password again.
    #1 causes iCal to start using the keychain item added during the initial subscription to the calendar.
    #2 causes iCal to add a second keychain item, with the address webcal://server/Calendars/name.ics
    #2 also adds the username to the address of the subscribed calendar, so that the address becomes the same as in solution #1.
    All our Macs (PPC/Intel) running Leopard 10.5.4 have this issue when adding new calendars.
    Anyone experienced something like this?

    If you are storing on your computer, arther than a sharing service, the issues are limited to your computer.
    The most frequent problems are related to file permissions -- it cannot get the required permissions to store your preferences.
    Run Disk Utility.
    The most helpful operation Disk Utility does is ( Repair Disk ). That is a good idea. If you can only ( Verify Disk ) that is OK, as long as there are no un-fixable errors.
    For this partiucular problem, you should also ( Repair Permissions ). It may list many messages, all of which can be ignored unless they appear in RED.

  • ICal won't recognize calendars in a calendar group

    First - I do not use the cloud, everything is stored on my local hardDisk
    Second - the problem is only with iCal. Other programs can see calandars within calendar groups just fine.
    Third and most importantly - I apologize in advance for misspelling calendar (or anything else) as I am sure to do so many times.
    My problem: All of a sudden iCal stopped recognizing anything inside a calendar group.
    I am running Mountain Lion 10.8.3.
    I have multiple calendar groups, all containing calendars inside them and a slew of events for each.
    When I click on a calandar within a group and add a new event it popps up with the right color, indicating that it will be saved within that calandar group, yet inside the actual event (in the edit screen) the calandar associated with it is null. Specifically I can't choose anything because everthing is grayed out. The only thing showing are the names of the various calendar groups I have, but none of the calandars inside those groups show up for me to select them.
    Notice that the new even is GREEN indicating that it will go into the World Holiday's calendar inside the group Holidays. Yet inside the details of the even it shows that the associated calandar is Lightfoot, the only calendar not inside a group. The only way to make World Holidays an option is to move it out of the group, but that defeats the purpose of groups.
    As stated before, the calendar groups show up and work fine in other programs, the problem is unique to iCal alone. Here is a screenShot of mail as I try to add a new even from there.
    See how it is giving me the option to put the event in ANY of the calandars whether they are inside a group or not. This is how iCal was working up until Tuesday the 19th. This is also what I just finished doing when it broke. I have tried the following with no success:
    - deleting all the calendars/calendar groups and working from a clean/error free archive of iCal
    - deleteing my cache files
    - installing a dummy user with admin privelges to see if the problem ports over
    - reinstalling OS X (not erasing my data but in essence reinstalling iCal)
    - verifying the disk to find any errors (there were none)
    - reparing disk permissions (they were all fine but I repaired them anyway)
    - contacting apple support (nice guy, but so far can't figure it out either)
    It appears to be a hierarcy issue inside of iCal alone. It is as if anything inside a calendar group (calandars and events) is unreadable by iCal, like the hierarchical structure is corrupt or there is a bad line of code in there somewhere. Any ideas on what I should try and do to fix it?
    Thanks!

    I too am having this difficulty.  It just showed up today (3/27) and nearest as I can figure, is somehow tied to the latest Mountain Lion update since I just installed that from the App Store.  That said, I'm no closer to figuring out what to do about it.
    I am also running 10.8.3 and am steering clear of the Cloud because it doesn't support calendar groups.
    Like you, I can get things in the right calendar/color if I click that calendar then add the event.  But if I then go into the individual event it is being labeled as something else.  I think it is actually putting it in the correct calendar, because if I click between events and watch the calendar bar on the left, it switches between the different calendars and groups appropriately.  It is a bit frustrating though that if I want to switch an event's calendar assignment, I now have to re-enter it, rather than just switching it through the edit pane or by right-clicking.
    Here's hoping someone out there will see this and have a solution.
    Cheers!

  • ICal won't recognize address in address book for alarms

    I am trying to add an email alarm to an ical event, and it says that the address has to be in my address book...which it is. I click on the email link to add the alarm... and it keeps prompting me that the address has to be in my address book. What am I doing wrong?

  • ITunes and App Store won't recognize password

    Everytime I enter my password into iTunes or App Store on my iPhone it says it can't find my ID or password. I can log into Apples site with my Apple ID and password and it works just fine. I reset my password and it still doesn't work. It worked perfectly last night. I put my phone on charge, went to bed and this morning it wouldn't let me download anything. Anyone have any idea of why I can't download any song or apps on my phone?

    Same question Wish someone had replied!
    I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple!

  • Won't recognize my password in email

    Won't recognize password to set up email

    Hi there! I recommend reaching out directly to Spotify Support. With this anonymous online contact form, you can reach them without subscribing to / having access to a Spotify account or the email that was used to create that account.
    Make sure to check your inbox and junk folder for an email from Spotify. Once you get it, make sure to reply back right away, even if it says it's from a "no-reply" email.
    Cheers!

    I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?
