ITunes won't accept my password or let me log in

I am trying to log in to iTunes from my desktop (Mac), and my password is being rejected. Error message says I entered password wrong, and says an email will be sent to me at my email address on file. However, no email every arrives.
NOTE: I have no problem logging in with my Apple ID and password when I go to www.icloud.com or when I go to Manage My Apple ID Account on the Apple web site. There clearly does not appear to be a problem with my ID or password, but iTunes won't accept it! I was logged in probably an hour ago, but logged out in order to access some of our other family Apple ID accounts, and no I can't get back in!

I can't update apps as itunes doesn't accept my password on iphone 5

I cannot update my apps because iTunes won't accept my password.

Make sure that under the settings app --> store --> Apple ID:[your apple ID here] is correct. If it is, go to https://iforgot.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/DSiForgot.woa/wa/iforgot and reset your password to what you want it to be. If it is not the apple ID you bought the apps on, then change it and try again.
And Drbean: are you logged in under the account you bought them in and entering the current password?

ITunes won't accept password on MacBook Pro

This is a recent problem that just started happening - everytime iTunes opens it won't accept my password. No error message - it just keeps prompting me to enter password. I can use itunes but can't log in to my account for app updates or itunes store. Password works fine on iphone and for logging in to this forum, and i Message. Tried reseting and also repairing permissions as suggested in other posts - neither of those worked.

*Hi Kyoki,*
*Welcome to AD. Nice to have you here. Yeah it's very frustrating having your computer crash and losing your music. I hope once you're able to add your music back from your iPod that you'll keep it backed up on an external hard drive or DVD's/CD's... Were you able to contact Apple Support to assist with the password reset process?*
Thanks

ITunes store won't accept my password from my iPhone 5 this morning. Ideas? Know issues?

iTunes store won't accept my password from my iPhone 5 this morning. Ideas? Know issues?
And no matter how many times nor what I change the password to I cannot log in to purchase music.
Help!

I tried "resetting" my password, but b****y iTunes just keeps asking me for ANOTHER password, and won't accept the password I want to use! I'm getting mighty fed up with iTunes - I'm a senior citizen, and my memory isn't as sharp as it might have been, so passwords HAVE to be fairly simple and OBVIOUS to me. I can't just keep thinking up new passwords because they are getting more and more irrelevant, and I will NEVER remember them.
What am I supposed to do now?
I can't use my iPhone when I'm out of the house, because it won't recognise my new email address and password. I can't use BTFON because it needs my password, which I can't get iTunes to accept.
I can't get the bloody thing to do anything, and although it cost me £600 when I bought it 2 years ago, I'm not very happy with it any more because I just can't get the thing to do anything.
HELP!!!!

ITunes store won't accept my password

Just changed ISPs (from Orange Wanadoo to BTInternet. Had the 'engineer' come out and do all the connecting stuff because I ALWAYS get it wrong.
He said he had connected everything and all would be OK.
But it isn't.
I wanted to check email on my iPhone, and it wouldn't. Took my phone to an O2 shop (where I bought it from) and bloke there got it going eventually.
Back home, I want to download the BTFON app, but when I enter my iTunes password, it is rejected.
Can't understand what is going on, and getting very, very angry with it because virtually nothing works like it did.
Can anyone PLEASE tell me what to do to get my iPhone to accept an app download from iTunes?
Many thanks,
Bill

My ipod is disabled and won't accept my password what do I do

My Ipod is disabled and won't accept my password what do I do

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

When I try to access the Apple store to install a game on my Iphone3g, another person's email address comes up on the page that asks for my password. Has someone hacked my account? It won't accept my password because it's someone else's ID!!!

When I attempt to install a game on my I phone 3g, another person's ID (email address) is on the little box where it asks for my password. It won't accept my password because it's not my ID. How can I get this person's ID off my phone? Have I been hacked or something??

Just sign put of that account and into yours.
This is covered in the manual:

I'm trying to sync my firefox and it won't accept my password.

Firefox Sync won't accept my password and when I tried to reset it I keep getting hung up on the "An unexpected error occurred. If this continues, please contact support." response after filling out the "Reset Password" fields. I wan't to sync Firefox for this pc. How can I get around this?
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== Today: Wednesday 28 July 2010

I solved the problem. Apparently, when I tried to sign up in sync the first time, it didn't go through. All I had to do is re-apply. I used the same username and everything (that's how I know it didn't go throught the first time). My Firefox is now synced and there are no further problems.
P.S.
If only I could sync my Firefox bookmarks, calender and notes with Opera, Safari and Chrome. That'd be great. I like using different browsers for different purposes. When I need the browser to disappear so all I see is what's in the window, Opera works best. Firefox can't disable the tool-bar "Auto-hide" feature in full screen mode. And Safari doesn't have a Hot-key for full-screen. At least not that I've seen.

IMac running 10.5.8, me email won't accept my password. One day it worked normally, next day it won't and I did not change password. Now I cannot reset the password, almost as if it was changed by someone else. I am the only user of this iMac.

My email won't accept my password, was working fine, then one day it wasn't. It is almost as if someone else changed the password and now I cannot use my password or change it to a new one. My iMac is running 10.5.8 , using Earthlink and Safari. Any ideas on this problem?

Are you using the Mail client or Safari to access your email?

I upgraded my ipad 2 on apple's advice now can't do the back-up on my now-empty ipad! itunes won't recognise my password! help help

I just upgraded my ipad 2 on apple's advice now can't do the back-up on my now-empty ipad! itunes won't recognise my password! help help

Just for information in case helps anyone else, I have now accessed the back-up, I tried a different password from memory but it is not the normal iTunes password I use - which is what you'd expect them to be after. Now I don't know how to get the app collection back onto the screen, they aren't opening. Wish I never had upgraded...
