Kindle - wifi password not accepted

I have just bought my first Kindle - from Tesco, so, unlike a Kindle from Amazon, it is not sold ready to go.  I have to connect via WiFi in order to register it.  But it is not accepting my wifi network password.  I am pretty sure I am entering the correct password because I used the same one for my laptop!  Very frustrating!  Can I reset my wifi network password via the BT website and start again with the Kindle (and my laptop)?  Best wishes - Kate

Hi Kate and welcome
It does sound like you're trying to use the wrong key
For the homehub 3 - Lift the little tab and type in what is under Wireless key:
Don't use the Wireless WPS Pin or the Admin password
For the home hub 2 - On the rear of the hub, it's the one after Wireless key (WPA):
Don't use the Wireless Pin or the Admin password

  • IPhone 4S : Wifi Password not accepting + iTunes won't backup the iPhone

    Hi,
    Am using a MBP  2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo , 8 Gb Ram and running 10.8.3 Mountain Lion.
    My issue is that after an update to iOS 6.1.2 , my iPhone 4S can't join my Home Wifi. The Error I get is Password is incorrect. All other iPhones and iPads and Macs at home login without an issue.
    The next issue that started is that my iPhone syncs changes with iTunes, but is not able to do a backup. I get an error "iTunes could not backup xx because an error occurred."
    2 huge issues - I can't get wifi and I can't upgrade to the new 6.1.3 in hope of solving some of these issues.
    I can't do a clean install without taking a backup, since I'll lose all my Messages - SMS
    HELP ... This is driving me crazy and I can't find a fix anywhere
    Thanks a million in advance
    Vivek

    Use the app My Contacts Backup, which will back up your contacts as an attachment to an email.  Send this email to yourself.  At any point in the future you can open this email on your phone and tap the attachment to re-import the contacts to your phone.  (If you get a new phone, send the email to yourself from your computer and open it on your new phone to import the contacts.
    Alternatively, if your contacts are in Address Book you can open Address Book, click on any single contact, go to Edit>Select All (Command-A) to select all contacts, go to File>Export>Save as vCard and save this on your desktop.  Then email this file to your phone and tap the attachment to import the contacts.

  • WiFi Password not accepted

    This morning I had to reset my Internet modem.  So I unplugged everything and after about 1-2 minutes, I plugged everything back in.  Then I left for work.  Came home and my laptop (Toshiba) is fine.  My iPhone5 and iPad Mine are not.  I've tried to enter the password several times and neither device will accept it.  I know it's correct because I opened the cisco connect application to verify the password was correct.  Shy of resetting both devices, what can I do?    

    Try going into the settings on your iDevices and resetting the network settings. Settings --> General --> Reset --> Reset Network Settings. It will then reboot and hopefully accept the new password.

  • WiFi / password not accepted although correct

    After installing iOS6 on my iPhone 4s our WiFi is still detected but my phone continues asking for the password over and over again although it is correctly entered!

    This is happening to me, too, since I upgraded to iOS6 on my 4S this AM. Every time the phone goes into lock/sleep mode, I lose my home wi-fi connection and have to reselect the network and re-enter the password. Any ideas, anyone??

  • Wifi password not working on MacBook Pro

    Wifi password not working
    I got a MacBook Pro today. The previous owner had Apple wipe it clean for the new owner, me. When I first tried putting my wifi password in, I wasn't remembering exactly what it was, so I tried many different possibilities. Since then, I found my password in my office. I put it in, when it asked for it. But, it's not taking it. It just says searching for networks. And, this is after I identified the correct network. So, I am wondering if perhaps after a number of "tries" does it not accept ANY further attempts ? You know like Banking passwords....you get locked out. I'm wondering if I'm locked out? 

    No, not like a bank timeout.
    Open keychain in your Utilities Folder and look for old router password, or delete wrong passwords.
    You can always reset your router password to something new that you can remember.

  • Cant restore back up from iCloud as password not accepted

    when trying to restore an 1phone 5s from iCloud back up my password is not accepted..i then go to iforgot, change my password retry the restore process and get the same issue.I have tried turning find phone off, starting again but still cant access back up because password not accepted.

    I can't change my DNS settings. I'm trying to restore while setting up my phone. If I change the DNS settings while on the phone, and then restore the phone and try to restore from the back-up on my iCloud, it won't save that I've changed settings to use Google's public DNS. I would log onto my university's secure wifi instead of their guest wifi, but unfortunately I can't. because that involves an installation, which I can't do if I restore my phone and am trying to set it up.

  • Apple id password not accepted on icloud

    why is my apple id password not accepted when I try to login to iCloud? The same password worked when I tried to login to support to post this question!

    If Settings>iCloud is showing your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Gmail Error: Username and Password Not Accepted?

    Okay, once in a while my e-mail actually works on my I phone but about 90% of the time I get this notification; Cannot Get Mail: Username and password not accepted. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it? Oh yeah, I'm using 1.0.2, gmail, and I'm positive my password and username is right.
    Message was edited by: one11archerave

    I think the problem is solved. Last night I was on my friends computer and I accidentally stored my gmail password. I couldn't figure out how to delete it so I changed my password and then updated my iPhone with the new password. Ever since then I haven't had any problems.

  • Signed up on furefox desktop 2/2. No problem. Today password not accepted. Asked for help 3 hrs ago and never got email and nit in spam

    Was sucesssful signing up and using firefox on desktop yesterday. Today user name and or password not accepted. Can't get emails-nothing. Asked for help with password and never got email. This was 3 hrs ago and not in spam folder

    Password for what? Signing up for what?
    Firefox doesn't need a password for a person to be able to use it.
    Firefox shouldn't affect your ability to get email - Firefox doesn't do email, but it will allow you to access your web-mail service.

  • Blackberry Appworld Issue BBID Password Not Accepted

    I have enjoyed my PlaBk for almost a year but this has never happened. I attempted to purchase an app. When asked.com for my BBID password it would not accept it. I tried a few times more without working. So I went to Blackberry and changed my BBID password. But back on the playbook it still not accept my password. .
    Something else...in MyAppWorld, when I try and re-install an previously uninstalled app, I get a 0003-0005 error on the screen of my PlaBk
    When I go to the Blackberry ID in the Options, the message comes up 'Unable to Connect'
    But I am connected via WiFi and I can go onto appworld???
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The router seems to be doing its job alright with all aspects of playbook connectivity seeming to work flawlessly. The more I read though, the more it looks like the playbook and the blackberry ID software is in some kind of conflict. So the BBID works on the phone, and on the website, but still not the playbook. A "003-005" error is generated when I attempt to update software from MyAppWorld. If I attempt to purchase, a network error is reported

  • Wifi password not recognised

    I was using my laptop (Mac) on wifi this morning but now for some reason it won't recognise the wifi password. My phone and iPad are still connected so why is my laptop having issues? I haven't changed anything - all I have done today is a little online shopping!

    You sure you are using the correct password for wifi and not the administration password?

  • Hard Drive password not accepted in new W530

    I am moving a hard drive from a W500 to a W530 laptop.  The hard drive has a password on it and it works fine on the W500. When I put the drive in the W530 laptop, it does not accept the password on boot up. If I move the drive back to the W500, it all works fine.  This is a 1TB drive, so I'm hoping I can still use it! Thanks for any help here.

    Good afternoon and welcome to the community.
    Since the HDD password is accepted when it's installed in the W500, why not pull off the password in BIOS there, reinstall the drive into the W530 and then set the password in the W530's BIOS?
    Regards.

  • ID password not accepted anymore (once worked)

    Good morning,
    I am kind of desperate...and I hope somebody is familiar with this problem.
    I have adobe reader 11 XI, the latest version.
    I am taking a trainingcourse at Learningtrain. They provide lessonmaterial with certificates / id only.
    I created an ID and sent that to my teacher. fyi: I was strongly advised to switch off the automatic update option..as adobe deletes id's... and i did.
    The teacher had it all set up. And it worked! I could succesfully open the material with my password.
    now the issue:
    But it only worked once! Very strange. the ID is still there,but adobe does not accept my password any more
    so i cannot open the file anymore. My home work is due today... and it is a lot ;-)
    I have checked and double checked my password and is must be correct.
    My teacher advised me to delete this id, and to create a new one. but that does'nt work as reader still askes
    for my password when i want to delete the id.
    so i decided to deinstall reader and install again (who knows...) but it lookes like i cannot delete it.
    fyi: I also have adobe acrobat pro on my pc as i have the whole adobe css range. but I have exclusively used the reader.
    Hope you can help me.
    Kind regards Asha

    Well, if you can't uninstall Reader, you probably have something wrong. But, if you were advised against updating, uninstalling will surely be worse!
    I'm afraid I don't know what kind of password this is, there are so many possibilities. What does the prompt say? A screen shot would be good (BUT DON'T TRY TO EMAIL IT IN REPLY).

  • User password not accepted after migration

    Source: iMac Lion OSX.7.4  Destination iMac OSX6.8
    Problem: user password is not accepted after migration
    What I did: Tried to migrate over the LAN, but in the migration assistant the other Mac was mutually never recognized. (Did migrations several times successfully in our LAN before). Last time the LIon Mac was the destination, who is now the source.
    I backupped then the  user with Time machine on the Lion and installed it with the migration assistant on the Snow Leopard system. As as the password was not accepted, I repeated the backup/migration process once. No help
    I reset in System Prefs/User accounts the password of that user. But cannot login either
    First time, that a migration process fails for me.
    Any help is appreciated
    Thanks
    Urs

    The target computer itself has admin accounts thats not the problem, I can access it. The issue is that the migrated additional user account is not accessible with its password.
    I have found here an istruction how to reset a password in single user mode.
    http://www.macyourself.com/2009/08/03/how-to-reset-your-mac-os-x-password-withou t-an-installer-disc/
    But that does not help either.The answer after the dscl -passwd command is that I do not have access (or similar, I don't remember)
    My guess is that backward migration (Lion to Snow) causes the problem. May be I need to create the user freshly and to copy his documents manually
