Inputing Password for e-mail

I want to put in my password to excess mu email but I am having trouble with the keyboard. How do you use the lowercase portion? My password is lowercase sensitive and it doesn't seem to be working. Thanks

You may have the caps lock on. Check to see if the caps lock button is blue. If it is, then caps lock is on. Tap on it and it should come off. Pressing it once will make the arrow glow white, which is caps lock on for one time, if you double tap, it will glow blue and caps lock is on until you tap it again and close it. There is also a setting that allows you to turn off the ability to turn caps lock on at all. Go to Settings>General>Keyboard and turn off "Enable caps lock".
Hope this helps you.

Forgot username and password for e-mail setup

Help!
i can't seem to have forgotten the username and password for e-mail set up. after i created the initial setup i never logged into the e-mail setup app. i can receive my e-mails now on my blackberry, but after the first set up i can't seem to access it. the username and password seem to be incorrect. how do i retrieve this info using my e-mail address alone.
thanks ahead.

You'll need to call your service provider and ask them reset or delete your BIS account and add it back, and then you'll simply start anew, and this time, remember your username and password.
Good luck.

TS3276 I just upgraded to 10.8.2 and Mail is having a problem. It won't remember my password for getting mail; but it does remember the password for sending mail, i.e., smtp. Does anyone know of a fix?

I just upgraded to 10.8.2 and Mail is having a problem. It won't remember my password for getting mail; but it does remember the password for sending mail, i.e., smtp. Does anyone know of a fix?

The solution surprised even me, and we've been using Macs since 1984 (still have an original 128K).
I contacted Apple support, and because we had just upgraded yesterday, clicked on the "exception" button as opposed to paying the $19.99 one-time support fee. An Apple tech called and the problem was solved in two minutes.
Somehow during the installation of OS 10.8.2 (over 10.6.x) the key chain data for my email ISP login password got corrupted. The solution was to delete both the POP mail and SMTP entries in my keychain.
Back to Mail, it asked for the POP password, I entered it and bingo, mail got busy downloading. Interestingly, the password was also entered into the SMTP panel.
So, that's it. Thanks for you response, Mr. Hoffman, and regards.

I need to change my password for outgoing mail server but it won't let me

I Need to change my password for outgoing mail server on iPad 2 but it won't let me change it. I can't send out mail

I assume that you mean that the setting is grayed out and that is what "it won't let me" means. Have you tried selecting another SMTP server of you have another one available in the settings?

Possible to have password for iPad mail?

My teen age grandchildren like to play games on my new iPad. Can I have a password for my mail? I'd rather not share my mail messages with anyone who uses my WONDERFUL iPad. Thanks in advance.

Hello folks.
I realise I'm a little late here, but anyone visiting this thread could benefit from this.
I have the same issue as all of you with my email.
So I found this app, which lets you have multi-user accounts, each with passcode protection. It's called Mailboxes:

Creation of a new Keychain Entry (Internet password) for Apple Mail

I am working on a Mail Assistant to set up a new Mail Account for Apple Mail.
My problem concerns the creation of the Keychain Entry for the POP Account with which Apple Mail is set up (by my custom Mail Assistant).
I am able to create a Keychain Entry with all relevant User Data, the Keychain Entry also appears to be valid (I ran the Keychain First Aid Tool to check it), but when I start the Apple Mail App, it does not recognise the created Keychain entry, but is asking me to enter the Password for the POP Account which I set up successfully.
Any help is appreciated for giving me a hint of how Apple Mail recognises or links respectively to its adherent Keychain Entry.
Thanks in advance
Thomas

Couple of things to try Theo...
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, reboot once more.
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Window Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

Mail continues to ask me for password for deleted Mail account

Hey guys, I've deleted an old mail account in both the Mail application itself, as well as the Accounts folder in my system preferences. Nonetheless, Mail continues to ask me to type in the password for this old gmail account.
It's gotten so annoying that I'm not able to use mail anymore and have to use Thunderbird, which is ok, but I love how everything syncs.
A funny thing.... This is the computer that syncs with my iPhone 4s, and yet I have no issues with the mail accounts on the iPhone.
I imagine it's some old bit of data somewhere in the back of my system, but I don't know much about how these things work.
I can provide images of how my Accounts in system preferences works and how that compares to the error message if you need it. Also I can tell you anything else you need to know.
This problem is so annoying...can you help?

"Mail" can't remember password for cloud mail

In preparation for the iCloud move on July 1, 2012, I updated to latest version of OS X 10.7, and had everything working. As of July 1 I get:
Enter Password for Account "MobileMe"
The iCloud IMAP server "p99-imap.mail.me.com" rejected the password for user myusername
Enter your password again or cancel
This box comes up for every incoming message to my mac.com/me.com address. I have entered my password, and told it to remember the password in the keychain, repeatedly, but the dialog box keeps coming up. My password was just changed and meets or exceeds Apple security rrequirements.
I can access my mail by using a browser through icloud.com. The Mail program on my iMac can reach all my non-cloud mail without trouble.
My first thought was that I need to direct my mail program to another server, but I can't find any reference to such a change being needed or an address for such a new server. I get way too much mail on that account to make entering my password for every message practical.
To make it more confusing, my wife's iMac is getting her mac.com/me.com messages without any trouble, and they seem to be set up identically.
Does anyone have ideas as to how I can adapt to whatever changed on July 1?

p99-imap.mail.me.com
Hmmm, Apple does oen that, but I use imap.mail.me.com
Do you have an old MobileMe server or 2 still in Mail?
See if this helps...
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.

Changed password for e-mail account and cannot send e-mails

Went into setting, "mail, contacts and calendar" under my e-mail account I changed the password, but now I can't send any e-mails out. Checked with comcast and all the settings are correct. What is the problem?

If your email provider requires the password for sending emails then as well as changing it on the account when you tap on it in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, you may also need to tap on SMTP (under the 'outgoing mail server' heading) on that popup screen and then tap on the outgoing server name on the next screen and update the password there as well.

I I need to change my password for e mail on i phone

I had to change my email password on my computer. I can't received e mail on my i phone and don't know how to change my i phone email password

Settings/mail,contacts,calendar - tap on the name of the account and change the password. You may need to change it in 2 places, one for incoming mail and one for outgoing.

Smtp server rejects password for outgoing mail

I can receive, but not send messages from my imac and get the message the SMTP server "smtp.tiscali.co.uk" rejected the password for user ".........".
This has just suddenly started happening. I enter what I know to be the password but it is rejected, so I have to send via webmail (now talktalk, not tiscali) or iphone. I have looked on here before and tried re-entering password/changing the port but to no avail. Flummoxed.

Getting a invalid password for e-mail

i put in my pass word to activate my e-mail on my black berry curve 9310 and it keeps telling my pass word is invalid and won't valate my e-mail on my phone

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please double check...perhaps you have a mixture of different characters in your password, and have not noticed how you must enter those on the BB keyboard. For instance, if your password is
ab123
and you enter
a > b > ALT > 1 > 2 > 3
the actual result will be
ab1er
You must enter
a > b > ALT > 1 > ALT > 2 > ALT > 3
in order to wind up with ab123. So, in this example, while on the BB keyboard you think you are typing ab123, you are actually typing ab1er.
Otherwise, try from your BB Browser www.blackberry.com/integrate. Otherwise contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!

Mail does not recognize password for incoming mail

I use mail to retrive messages from two pop accounts a mac account and a work account. But now Mail shows a message saying that the server for my log in name does not recognizes the password. But if I use the webmail of that account it does recognize the password. I am able to sentmail from that account as well as to receive and send from the .mac account. What is the problem?
Thank you very much for any help.

Your email provider is not copmcast, that is your ISP.
You apparently have a comcast account that you access using their web mail. Not really relevant here as we are talking about accounts in mail clients, not browsers.
The settings you have posted are to access your comcast mail account in Thunderbird, something Thunderbird is designed to do. Manage multiple mail accounts.
You indicate that the domain is toteyourself.com this domain is registered with godaddy and I assume uses standard godaddy domain mail settings.

Iphone intermittently says "The username or password for yahoo mail is incorrect"

This is a mystery. Four email accounts on my iphone 4. No problems until a couple of days ago, when all of a sudden I get an error message when sending/receiving email BUT NOT EVERY TIME I AM SENDING OR RECEIVING. Nothing changed about the email accounts. Nothing downloaded/upgraded to the software for the iphone. I seem to get most of my email on my phone, but occasionally some mail seems to not arrive, while arriving on my PC.
?????? Since setting up these email accounts on my iphone (September 2010) I have not tinkered with the userID/passwords, or anything else about the accounts...
Any ideas?

I get that occasionally, usually in a weak signal area - I aways assumed that the attempt timed out and the error message was erroneous. Usually, a few minutes later it seems to work ok for me.
