Keeps changing passwords

I am trying to set up a broad band connection-but every time i put in the new password (in PPP i think-after opening up network link in system applications)-after i type it in and click on apply changes-it (the dots)double in length.after completing everything else-i open up the internet connection icon in applications-where around ten dots are where the correct password should be.If i try and connect now it says that authentication has failed and will not connect-which means i have to delete the ten dot wrong password and type in the correct one.After which it connects ok-the problem comes when i shut computer down.It asks me if i want to save changes made/password-and as main number 1.If i save it when it opens again it has again changed the password and i have to re-type in the correct password again and then when i shut down it again asks if i want to save changes (as main number 2/3/4 etc)-and when opens after this it again has two extra dots for the password so again i have to delete them and key in right password.So basically it seems that i can not get it to remember the correct password-also i have tried to change main number settings-but it seems i can not.In systems preferences i have tried to lock it and save password etc but it makes no difference it still doubles the number of dots i have keyed in.
HELP
thanks

So, you open system preferences, click on Network, then built in ethernet. You should want the TCP/IP tab. Click that, then configure IPv4 using DHCP.
That is how you want to do Broadband. At least that is how I have always done it.
Give that a try.

HT204053 I changed my password yesterday. My daughter's account (which we think is separate) notified her that HER password had been reset. But we have two diffent ID's and passwords. OR so we thought. Any advice? We keep changing passwords...

Hey there HaroldHarold13,
It sounds like after changing the password for your Apple ID, your daughter was prompted that her password was incorrect. It is possible that she is using an alias setup under your account, and you can verify this at http://www.icloud.com. This article will show you how to check for that:
iCloud: Create or change email aliases
http://support.apple.com/kb/ph2622
Change, deactivate, reactivate, or delete an alias
In iCloud Mail, choose Preferences from the Action pop-up menu in the sidebar.
Click Accounts.
Select the alias in the Addresses list, then do any of the following:
To choose a new color for incoming messages, click a Label Color option. Alias labels appear only in the iCloud Mail app on iCloud.com.
To change the name or label, enter a new alias name and label in the fields provided. Alias names must contain between 3 and 20 characters.
To turn off an alias, select “Disable alias.”When an alias is turned off, all email messages addressed to that alias are returned to the sender.
To turn on an alias, deselect “Disable alias.”
To delete an alias, click Delete.
Also, when you setup the iCloud account, you get a free @icloud.com email address. That one or the other of you may be using. You can check this by logging into http://appleid.apple.com

HT4798 I have not come across a system that forces you to keep changing passwords like this one, I log in using my i.d.and password and suddenly it is rejected so instead of re establishing it I have to choose another,this is crazy.

I have now had to change my p/word four times as apple i.d. keeps rejecting the current one after a while, there is no password recovery system anymore just a select new option which is tedeous and confusing.

I recently changed my Google Password and so I was getting the same message everytime my gmail tried to update on my phone. you would need to update the password on the account website, scroll down a bit it will allow you to update the password

TS3988 i keep changing my icloud password and it is rejected every time what gives?

i down loaded icloud program but have trouble signing in with passwords. I keep changing passwords and it keeps rejecting it. I have widows 7 os.

You don't remember how you normally input vietnamese? Here are the choices:

HT1911 I just verified my Apple user ID and password but certain updates won't download (gives me the signal that I'm incorrect). I keep changing it, verifying but not all applications let me proceed.

I just verified my Apple user ID and password but certain updates won't download (gives me the signal that I'm incorrect). I keep changing it, verifying but not all applications let me proceed. So I can't download itunes software updates or update my iphone even though I have just verified my info. I know others that have this problem but can't get support to resolve it.

I have a mac pro, an ipad2 and now an ipod touch. Problem is my apple ID password is not recognized, and I cannot download or purchase applications. I have had to keep changing my password than it doesn't accept the new one either??? It says it's a year o

I just bought an ipod touch and am trying to make an application purchase on it and to use icloud to transfer to my ipad or laptop.
I cannot sign in. the password is never accepted. How do I get into applications to purchase or download some of what I have on my ipad?
This sign in on the ipod touch has the address computerservice1614.com I don't even know what that is. I signed in with my apple ID but had to keep changing the password because the ipod won't accept any of them. I am feeling so frustrated and wishing I didn't buy the ipod. Anyone know how to deal with this. I am so tired of trying. This is my second day of trying.

I would restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod on your computer and start over. It appears the iPod is associated with another account. Any media that came with the iPod does not belong to you and di not transfer with the iPod hardware.

Why does my password keep changing?

My apple Id password keep changing every 2 days. How do I prevent it?

Do you share your Apple ID with anyone else? If so, could they be changing it? Your Apple ID password does not change on its own.

Keep changing my password for iCloud to verify my account?

Why do I have to keep changing my iCloud password for my iPhone to verify my account? That iMac doesn't have any trouble but my iPhone keeps losing the function of anything iCloud related. Changing the password seems to fix this but why do I have to keep doing it?
Thanks for any help.

Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Also make sure you check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

Every time I try to download from the apple store, I am told to verify my apple ID. I keep changing my password and still cannot get my download

How do I verify my apple ID so that I can download from the store.

You keep changing your Password? Have you done this from Settings > Store, tap your Apple ID, then sign out and sing in using the right ID and Password.

TS1424 I keep getting a message that my ID has been disabled when trying to download an app. I have changed password I with apple. Any ideas what is wrong?

If you've changed your password and it still shows disabled then try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I keep getting password error and I've changed my password 3 times

I keep getting password error when I try to get a new app or a book from iBooks?

I was having a similar problem before I realised that the reset password page was for US iTunes Store rather than the Australian one (the one I actually use). Changed it by clicking on the little flag in the bottom right hand corner and it suddenly stopped giving me the timed out message. Hope this helps.

Cannot get into iPad, it keeps wanting me to sign in using old email that does not exist, and for a password that she does not remember, so I am unable to change password. How do I get around this?

With iOS 7 Activation lock you can't.

Changed Apple ID email, iCloud keeps asking password for old email

I recently lost my iPod touch that didn't have a password on it, so I changed passwords of everything I had on the iPod. Just to be more secure, I changed my Apple ID to a new email address too. The problem is now iCloud on my iPhone keeps asking me to enter my password but it keeps prompting the old ID instead of the new one. And of course when I entered the password (both the new one and the old one), it said wrong password or username. I went to iCloud in Settings but the email address is greyed out so I guess I can't change it.
Does anyone know how do fix this?
PS: I was able to manually change the ID for Apple Store but not with iCloud.

Check this iCloud FAQ support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4436, however I don't think you can just change the email for the iCloud ID. I believe you have to delete the current account and create a new one.

HT5312 someone keeps changing my password, i have told someone this before. they must have my email address i am worried
