Incoming email keeps dropping password

My incoming e/mail on my Mac (Snow Leopard,v.10.6.8) keeps dropping my password on the account page, which then kicks off my e/mail to offline. When I go to Messages," put all accounts online ", SOMETIMES I can get mail before the account page wipes out my password, other times I am not fast enough, it seems. Any suggestions? Thx, Nancy

    what errors are you receiving and what do you mean by "bouncing"?  Do they  just disappear or what?

  • My email keeps dropping.

    My email keeps dropping. I go to the icon, email downloads, then drops. Happening more frequently.
    Started last week and now happening multiple times.

    I suggest you buy David Pogue's "The Missing Manual for Lion" which is an excellent teaching resource.  You might also try Mac For Dummies (no slur intended) and read the manual for your model Mac.

  • Not Receiving Incoming Email from Drop folder

    Hello,
    I hope that someone out there will be able to help me with this issue. I am fairly new to MOSS2007 but belive that I have configured e-mail to list correctly, I followed the steps set out by Steve Smith
    http--www.combined-knowledge.com-Downloads-How%20to%20configure%20Email%20Enabled%20Lists%20in%20Moss2007%20RTM%20using%20Exchange%202003.pdf
    The process all follows fine and when I attempt to send to a configured mail enables list I can see the mail make it to the drop folder as it should. This is where the problem occurs, it is never picked up by the Windows SharePoint Services Timer service. The e-mail's I send just sit in the drop folder and nothing is happening.
    As this is a fairly simple thing to setup there isn't a great deal of troubleshooting info out there and most of it just says check the basics like making sure that in the central administration console>Incomming Mail Settings the drop folder is specified as C:\inetpub\mailroot\drop (which it is)
    I've been through the event logs and those created by sharepoint but can't see anything that looks like an error causing this issue and nothing in the applications logs either. I'm in limbo at the moment because so far as I can see I have setup correctly, mail delivery is succesful and nothing to suggest what is causing the issue.
    I have reset the permissions on the drop folder to grant full access to the service account that runs the Windows SharePoint Services Timer service, I have even added the Windows SharePoint Services Timer service account to the domain administrators group to try and make sure its not a permissions issue.
    Any advise would be appreciated because I've ran out of idea's now!?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Did you select “Directory Management Service” option, if so, please make sure you configure the Central Administration application pool identity account to have the Create, delete, and manage user accounts right to the container that you specify in Active Directory.
    Did you install Exchange server 2003 in your MOSS environment? If so, you should add an SMTP connector in Exchange Server, if you don’t know how to do that, you can post your issue into the following forum:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrdeploy/threads
    Also, please check whether your configuration meet the following requirements, If not, correct them and check the effect.
    ·         The application pool account for Central Administration, the logon account for the Windows SharePoint Services Timer service, and the application pool accounts for your Web applications should have the correct permissions to the e-mail drop folder.
    ·         The domain controller running Active Directory has a Mail Exchanger (MX) entry in DNS Manager for the mail server that you plan to use for incoming e-mail.
    For more information about how to configure incoming e-mail settings, please refer to the following article:

  • Incoming emails keep repeating in Apple Mail

    I have had all kinds of probs with Apple Mail lately, mainly to do with getting to see all my POP3 email in Gmail on my PC at work. This stopped working last week, now it is miraculously working again. Great!
    But last night/this morning vast amounts of email from last few days repeated themselves, spent ages sorting througgh them and deleting repeats while being careful to watch out for new mail. That has thankfully stopped too, I have no idea why it started suddenly, or stopped or why above Gmail problem righted itself.
    But now all emails are coming in twice, not as bad as above probs but annoying. They do not repeat in Gmail or mail2web.com but I use mainly Apple Mail at home. Can anyone please suggest a solution?
    It must be either something in Mail Preferences or in Gmail settings. I have Mail 3.6, most Help is for 4.0 (can and should I upgrade, by the way, I uploaded some kind of upgrader but it didn't want to install).
    Thank you.
    Michael

    I unchecked auto forward in Rules several days ago so I don't think it's that. Must be sthg in Mail prefs or possibly Gmail settings but I'll be darned what... Asked my (expensive) ISP and they said it's to do with Mail, nothing to do with them. Have also asked former ISP whose email address I still use (pay them £12 a year, good value), no reply so far...
    It's strange how things keep changing (forwarding to Gmail stopped working for a few days, now working again), doubling of email only in Apple Mail not in webmail...

  • My mac book keeps dropping the WEP password

    My mac book keeps dropping the WEP password. I have  a netgear wireless router and all other computers are running fine on the network just the macbook seems to be dropping the WEP. any thoughts?

    Beeps can mean the RAM (memory) is failing or has failed.

    Take your Mac to an Apple Store or Apple certified repair provider.

    hi Robert,
    thanks a lot for your reply.
    here is the uplink port profile config:
    port-profile type ethernet HostUplink
      vmware port-group
      switchport mode trunk
      switchport trunk native vlan 1
      switchport trunk allowed vlan 1-3967,4048-4093
      channel-group auto mode on mac-pinning
      no shutdown
      system vlan 803,832,900-901
      state enabled
    803 is mgmt for both esx and vsm, 900 is control, 901 is packet.
    my NC553i driver version is different from what you suggested, it is 2.102.518.0, any reason why you suggest to use the version you specified?
    I have been trying to contact HP support, to be honest, not saying overall, but from my experience, they are much less helpful then Cisco support, I will keep trying.
    thanks

  • I got a new email but ol email keeps coming up when i go to get an app but it wont let me in with my old password and if i go to get newpassword it sends it to my new email

    I GOT A NEW EMAIL BUT OLD EMAIL KEEPS COMING UP WHEN I GO TO GET AN APP BUT WHEN I GO TO CHANGE
    MY PASSWORD IT SENDS IT TO MY NEW EMAIL.

    Hi jackburkholder,
    You will need to delete the iCloud account with your old ID, but before you can do that, you will have to go back into Manage Your Apple ID, and change your Apple ID back to the old address. Don't worry about verifying it, you just need to change it.
    Then, go into Settings>iCloud and turn off Find My iPhone (it will ask you for a password - put in your current one to turn it off). Then, scroll down to the bottom of the screen and Delete the iCloud account using your current password.
    Also go into Settings>iTunes & App Store, clidk on your old ID and sign out of iTunes.
    Then go back to Manage Your Apple ID and put your new Apple ID back in.
    Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign on with your new Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID.
    Go back into Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign on with your new Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID.
    Cheers,

  • I am trying to update my purchases but my sisters email keeps popping up for verification. I am unable to change back to my apple Id/ password. Help

    Im trying to update some purchases but my sisters email keeps coming up for verification. My serial # is on file but I am unable to reset to my apple I'd/ password. Help. She doesn't even know the password and doesn't remember putting her info in. I may have synced to her computer before.

    That's normal if you used her Apple ID to obtain the apps.  Apps (and anything else purchased from the Apple store) are permanently associated with the ID that was used for the original purchase (even if free).  You MUST be able to insert her password.  There is no way around this.
    If she can't remember her Apple ID password, something here might help.

  • TS1702 When I try and use the Kindle app on my touch it keeps telling me to register the kindle. I register it using the account and password I used to get the app but it tells me there is no customer found for the email address and password. help

    No, it is asking you to register with your Amazon user id and password. Your Apple ID won't work.

  • My iPod touch gen5 wifi keeps dropping out. All the other iPods, iPads and iPhones don't in the house, just the iPod touch gen 5, entering the password every time is a pain, why can't it have a button to remember password like all the other devises.

    My iPod touch gen5 wifi keeps dropping out. All the other iPods, iPad, and iPhone 4's don't in the house.
    Why doesn't it remember the wifi password like the other i devises, it's a bugger entering it in every time.

    You late question did get answered:on the 18th of this month. Sounds like you did not like the answers. Starting a new post without mentioning yur first post wastes people time
    My iPod touch 5th gen isn't charging and when I plug my working charger in that I've always used a message pops up that says "This accessory may not be supported". So can I send it in for a new one if I have a warranty?

  • Hi, my iPad 2 keeps dropping out and going back to blank screen, I then have to enter my password again, start downloading or reading and it happens again. I have reset the iPad but it is still the same.

    First, 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 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.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without be charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • I keep getting emails saying my password has been changed , everytime i go reset it with stronger passwords, but it keeps happening, anyone got any ideas?

    Hi all, I keep getting emails saying my password has changed, I have now reset my password 4 times in the last 2 weeks with stronger and stronger passwords and have also changed my security questions, anyone got any ideas how to resolve this problem?

    No.   I am a volunteer, not always on good terms with Apple either.   I'm sorry I don't seem to have helped but what I told you is what I would tell anyone in your situation.
    I hope Thomas r won't mind me pasting one of his replies, but the thread is so long it could be daunting.   Thomas knows about these things.

    As has already been pointed out earlier in this topic, the issue is either a repeated phishing attempt (in which someone sends you a faked e-mail, directing you to a faked site, which tries to get you to "log in" so that the hackers can get your ID and password) or someone is repeatedly trying to get access to your account. I'm guessing the latter is more likely... someone's repeatedly trying to reset your password, for who knows what reason, and they're trying repeatedly because they're never getting the password reset e-mail. (Why they would expect to receive that e-mail I don't know... people are stupid.)
    Make sure your Apple ID has a good, secure password. (There is no need to reset your own password to do this, just go toappleid.apple.com and change it.) I'd also advise turning on two-factor authentication to further protect your Apple ID:
    Apple introduces two-factor authentication
    This will prevent password reset attempts, as it will not be possible to even start the password reset process without having access to the device used to receive the code used as the second identification factor.
    Hope this helps.

  • I sent a friend some photos and since then the email keeps coming up in recovered. every time I delete it it appears again in recovered. I cannot get any incoming mail either as the little circle just keeps spinning. its driving me mad!! I can get my emai

    I sent a friend some photos, since then  the email keeps appearing in recovered from my mac. Everytime I delete it it comes back. also I cannot get any incoming mail, the circle keeps on spinning, I can get mail on my ipad, Has anyone got a solution please.
    thanks

    Yes,ranchers, I did try that a bunch of times- thanks for trying.
    I'm gonna list all the things I did (that I can can think of):
    Tried to force close the app.
    Turned on/off wiFi
    Tried letting it just run on the screen it's stuck at for like 15 minutes
    Ugh...my brain is turning off-I think it's frozen like my Sims!    Cornball I know.
    But I've tried everything I could think of which is a bunch more things than what I was able to list. And I'll do my best to answer any questions cause I know from looking all over on different forums that I'm not the only one this is happening to. It happened to a bunch of people who I think are still waiting for theirs to get fixed.
    Can the cloud save me if I upload today?
