Locked Out of Mail - Suspicious Activity Error!!!!...

Locked out from sending any email ... !!!!!
No idea what this error message means and as for suspicious activity, they could have chosen a more intuitive - explanatory error message.
This is really irritating, has anybody else experienced this??

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • IPad2 locked out of Mail

    When I clicked on a new email memo, my ipad went to a new screen that says "Welcome to Mail" then lists all different email platforms starting w iCloud. When I entered my login info for iCloud, the message says, "that user name already has an an iCloud account." I am locked out of Mail. It is working on my iPhone.

  • Locked out of mail have to unlock every time I try to access it.

    I have been using my mac (mini) for a couple years and have always had macs, so I;m not an idiot (meh)…Just recently I have been locked out of my mail every time I try to use it, with either "disabled for security reasons" or "unable to connect to iCloud.." This is a personal computer…no network to deal with, just me, my iPad and iPhone. It is really really annoying. I have reset password, checked iCloud preferences to make sure my primary email address is the right one, and still have to unlock every time on every device. I have 3 accounts as I am old and have been through the @mac, @me and @icloud. I know I am missing something that is probably simple, but for the life of me I can't figure out what. When I go to unlock it everything works fine, but I have to do this constantly. I have never been asked to do this before the last 2 weeks, now it is ever-present. @mac has always been my primary email…it has never been changed (by me). I am lost,
    please advise
    Thanks

    This is on my iPad

  • Corrupted/Locked out apple ID "An Unknown Error has occurred" logging into support?

    I was forced to use a different apple id to log into this support community because all attempts from different devices and browsers using another ID have ended up at the password prompt with "An unknown error has occurred" at the community login screen.  The ID can still be "manged" and appears to be able to make purchases from the iTunes Store over the internet.  A phone incident case number 388249960 was opened and I spent over an hour on the phone with this problem.  The ID in question was set up more than two years ago to help with my wife's iPad 1 which we paid 800 plus for,,, all the storage and bells and whistles.  Recently she started using the iTunes store to purchase and download television series and we got in trouble because her directories were filling the c:drive on a Vista Business computer she normally uses.  Before starting to deal with the problem of storage, I tried to make sure everything was up to date and downloaded/installed the latest iTunes 11.0,1,, to her machine.  I already had it on another machine running Windows 7 and two older Windows XP machines.    All of them were "tested" for home networking to our Apple TV so that I could go to the TV and find a computer which could be used as a source for streaming music, videos, etc., etc. all based on her ID.  As of this writing, I believe all of that functionality still exists, but, when I navigate to support and try to log in using her ID and password, I get re-prompted for the password and then "Locked Out" when "An Unknown Error Has Occurred" pops up above the login via the web site.
    I am writing this after much agony and travial via an obsolete instance of Windows Explorer running on Windows XP Home Premium on an old portable using a newly created Apple ID which does not appear to have the same problems logging into the support community.  Can anyone out there help me?
    I have gone to war with Comcast's "free" security enhancement software "Constant Guard" believing that it might be the source.  This machine had it installed at one time and has had it completely removed, but... it still experiences the error when my wife's ID is used.
    The issue may be related to the recently added requirement for secuity questions and recovery email addresses which I tried to address for her ID and inadvertently ran into conflict/problem with using certain other email addresses with her ID.  Perhaps something is corrupted in the database for her ID, or related to problems with support for esoteric things like Microsoft's .NET enhancements which I have long been using on my computers, or possibly Constant Guard "started" the problem because it was probably running when account security data was being updated via the Apple web site?  I tried to get information about what I thought was the "recovery email address" associated with her account and was told by Apple Web sites that it was "in use" as an apple ID and could not be used as her recovery address.  When I called trying to confirm that this ID was "mine" I was able to provide one of two security clearance pieces of data, but not enough information to get the support person to straighten things out for me. I ended up creating "yet another" ID just to get clear of the mess.
    I made a suggestion to one of the folks I spoke with that an improvement to the functionality of apple ID's would be to support "consolidation" of accounts so that if several different Apple devices had been registered with different ID's and they all belonged to the same user(s) that a "common ID" could be created.
    I'm reluctant to post apple ID's in a public support forum, and would prefer to deal with this by private email.  or phone.

    Then contact Apple directly.
    This is a user to user technical support forum.  No one here has access to manage Apple ID's other than their own.
    There is no Apple presence here.

  • My Live ID Keeps Locking Out

    In the last few days my Live ID keeps locking out. I get the error below.
    Sign-in is blocked
    Sign-in with <myliveid.com> is blocked for one of these reasons:
    Someone entered the wrong password too many times.
    If you signed up for this account through an organization, you might not be able to use it yet.
    I am able to change the password but within minutes it locks out again. I have done this 6 times now in the last couple of days. It appears something is constantly trying to login to my Live ID account with the wrong password.
    I have a Windows Phone and Windows 8 linked with this account as well. Is it possible that one or both of these are trying to connect to my account after a pw change and causing the lockout? This may have all started when I intentionally change the Live
    ID password to solve an issue with OneDrive.

    Hello There,
    This has been driving me crazy for months now too. First, I thought it was an issue with Microsoft's system, so I ignored it since I only logged in sparingly. Then as I started using my login more often, I started to investigate. By going to hotmail.com
    (outlook.com or https://account.live.com/Activity), I noticed that the false login attempts were coming for my office IP, Windows Platform and Internet Explorer. I narrowed it down to my PC, so after speaking with an MS rep. over chat. She suggested I clear
    out my browser, which could be causing cred. issues. I cleaned out and reset everything in IE, and started using another browser exclusively, while checking my activity. It showed my successful logins with the browser but it also showed unsuccessful logins
    from IE, even though I never used it, what?!
    I have a Windows 8.1 Pro system with a local account, but some app must be doing this. So I investigated, first the Windows Store - have never entered an ID and it was still blank/inactive, then I tested Skype, which is always running, but it wasn't it.
    Then I tested Outlook 2013, which is also always running and lo and behold, it's OUTLOOK! When the app is closed, there are no errors for hours at a time, when I open Outlook 2013, the errors come back every 25-40 min. intervals. 
    Here is the crazy part, I have disabled every single plugin, and I only have one Exchange account on Outlook, which is our own setup, which happens to be my live ID email but I don't know what could be trying to login, since I never linked anything with
    my Live ID.
    I am leaning to this being; 1) a bug, which needs to be documented and resolved or 2) Something sneaky of MS forcing Outlook 2013 to login to a Live ID account, through its new 'Office Account' system. Again, to be clear, I have never entered any 'Live ID'
    credentials for Outlook 2013, so I don't know why it attempts a login and what password it pretends to be login in with.
    Any feedback is appreciated.

  • ActiveSync mail/contacts/calendars removed after Active Directory account is locked out?

    Hey guys,
    Wondering if anybody has seen an issue like this.  This is a new Exchange 2010 deployment (8+ CAS servers) and the devices are all iPhones/iPads running the latest version of iOS (7.1.2).  The CAS servers are behind a load-balancer.
    Basically when a users' Active Directory account is Locked in AD (either manually or by entering the wrong password) their ActiveSync Contacts, Calendars and all Mail folders (except the Inbox strangely!) will be removed from the iOS device within a few hours.  So an account might get locked out at say 6pm, if left locked out by the next morning the ActiveSync account will still be setup on the device as normal, but everything is gone except the mail in the Inbox.  If a user has an iPad and iPhone both will be blanked.
    The behaviour is similar to what is documented here - iOS: How to mitigate a full sync or reload of Exchange account data - however the Exchange servers are not issuing HTTP500 errors as we have captured logging during the window where the device blanks itself.
    Any thoughts would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    which event ids are shown in the event viewer from the DCs? Or maybe locally also some errors are locked that give some more details.
    If this happens it sounds personally for me that Java is the problem. Have you already opened a call at
    https://community.oracle.com/welcome ?

  • Today I tried to open Safari and what I was presented was several minimized windows stating that there was a security error detected, also a suspicious activity was found in my computer. How do I go by in getting this cleared off?  Help.  Thanks

When I turned it back on awhile ago, I discovered this problem.  on top of that aI can't even clear the history everything is gray out except for the Earlier today, and the day and date of the month. I tried several times to quit Safari, turn off and turn back on my lap top to no avail.  My question is; How do I go by to in getting this error message when I click on Safari? Does that mean that I might have a virus in my lap top? Please Help.  Thanks.

    The error message means that Active Directory server Reject the authentication attempt
    as for some reasons the user account got locked.I guess, You should ask your AD Team to check in the AD
    Event Logs why did the user account got locked.

  • IMAP accounts locked out - small triangle lock error symbol

    I use Apple Mail to read several Gmail IMAP accounts. Mostly, it works fine. I've used Gmail IMAP since IMAP was offered.
    Every so often, one or more of the accounts will lock out. Apple Mail will display a small upward pointing triangle error symbol enclosed in a small circle, next to the account name. When I click that triangle error symbol, it explains "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account. The server error encountered was: Too many simultaneous connections. (Failure).
    I have 6 IMAP accounts connected, but I hear other people manage that number fine.
    The largest IMAP account has around 3GB of data, and I've heard that people get to 6GB with Apple Mail handling that well.
    So I don't know why this happens. It is intermittent.
    Using the latest 10.5.7 Leopard Mail.

    The too many simultaneous connections is from gmail, not Mail. Google limits the number of simultaneous connections to their server to prevent someone from hacking into your gmail account. It mostly prevents me from reading my email.
    When Mail opens a connection to an IMAP account, it generates multiple connects to allow real-time, upload, download, sync, etc. instead of one connection that must wait for the others to finish. Depending on the positions of the Moon, Sun, and Uranus, Google will identify this as too many connections.
    I can usually unlock it by logging into the gmail web interface. I'm not sure why adding the connection clears up the other connections, but there you go.

  • ICloud/iTunes Account Locking out Active Directory Account [?]

    The facts:
    I have been having this problem for the past four+ months.
    My work email address is my iTunes account name
    My work AD account gets logged out most evenings, sometimes within an hour of leaving work, sometimes late at night
    I know when my account is logged out because my iPhone will ask for my Exchange password, or I cannot get into Outlook Web Access
    When my iTunes/iCloud account password is the same as my Active Directory password this does not happen. When this was the case earlier this year I went 90 days without a lockout. The day after my password expired and I changed my password - locked out again
    Exchange recognizes two mobile devices, my iPad2 and my iPhone 4, as mobile ActiveSync clients
    I have reset both of these devices, updated to the latest iOS and reinstalled and reconfigured my apps
    This occurs even when neither of these devices has an active ActiveSync account set up to use my work Exchange server
    The keyrings (Mac) and Credential Managers (PC) of all my home machines have been sanitized
    Mail (Mac) and Outlook are not configured on my home machines, and they are not affiliated with the work domain in any way
    From these facts it seems to me that the issue is:
    There exists a machine attempting to reach my Exchange account using a password I have used in the past
    If it is a computer that I have possession of, it must be an iDevice, because this behavior has still occurred when all others have been powered off
    If it is an iDevice under my control then it is something in iCloud/iTunes, because it does not depend on having the Exchange account configured on either iDevice and those are the only applications with knowledge of my work email address
    So,
    If it is my iCloud/iTunes account then WHY in the name of all that is sacred is it hitting my work Exchange server and locking out my account?
    I can think of no other -possible- devices or online services that have both that password, and knowledge of that email address. I remotely wiped an old phone that might have had the email account configured.
    Help?

    I would very much like to hear from someone at Apple regarding this as I'm having a very similar if not the exact same issue.

  • Skype account locked due to suspicious activity - ...

    My Skype account was locked (I have since had it released and reset my password), due to 'suspicious activity'.
    This activity, however, was not suspicious.
    Myself and my partner both use it for business. He is travelling in the Philippines at the moment, and when I log in I use it from the UK.
    Is there any way to contact Skype to inform them of this so that the lock doesn't happen again?
    Many thanks!

    After not receiving satisfactory treatment, I am now posting this to ALL of my social media:
    I was hacked by a Russian Hacker, into my Primary Skype Account. I have gone through the process of reclamation of my account four times, and been denied restoration every time. I don't want to drag out all the background, or the stupidity of Skype. But I recommend that all Skype customers find alternative services for future usage, and uninstall Skype programs on their devices. 
    I will never ever use a Skype program again in my entire life. I recommend that you do the same. When Skype is incapable of even looking at a situation with honesty, and rewards thieves for stealing, then they have no business being in business.

  • My old Apple Id can no longer be accessed due to my original e-mail being locked out. How can I switch Apple ID's without access to the one my phone continues to use?

    My old hotmail account which has my old Apple ID (which is still connected to my phone) has been locked out. I have forgot the password to my original Apple ID and a recovery cannot be sent to my old account due to me not being locked out (believe someone has hacked it). I have set up a new Apple ID with a seperate e mail adress, however I cannot use the App Store because of my phone only recognizing the original e-mail I can no longer acess. Please help.

    Contact the Apple account security team for your country and ask for assistance resetting the password: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security.

    Hi JkeeneSoldano,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
    Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
    Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
    Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
    From:
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
    Best Regards,
