Login Error. Username Pass wrong - but they ar right

I have iCloud on my mac and iPhone.
I have to user accounts on my mac. One works without problem the second brings an error.
It says username or password wrong I should try again. The Username and password are correct because they work on my second account, my iPhone and online.
I just get the message I should try again.
What can I do, any ideas?

I found the solution. Go to you User folder:
User / Library / Application Support / iCloud
and either delete the folder Accounts or rename it.
Quit Systempreferences and restart it and login to iCloud.
Worked with me.

  • TS1702 When I try to update an App I am getting my old email address (which no longer works) and when I put in its password it says password or username is wrong. but it does not give me an option to put in my new user name. How can I correct this.

    What you are getting is the AppleID (AppleID can be an email adress) used at the time of the purchase of this app.  It is an identifiant allowing Apple to link your purchase to your account.
    If you want to manage associated email, you can go at https://appleid.apple.com but the AppleID could never be modified.  
    I do not know if in your case, it is just that you no longer use your old email address or that you actually a 2 AppleID.  In any case, you will have to remember the password related to the account used for your purchase.  If you don't, just use the link above to try to retreive your password.

  • Billing info telling me to verify my payment details but they are right as i purchased something via paypal just the other week. it was ok when i upgraded to mavericks but i cant upgrade to yosemite now.

    No need for alarm. There are several folks a day posting like threads. Most folks know these phishing attempts for what they are and merely delete with prejudice.
    To the bottom line... if you wish - and I am sure Apple will take notice - you should FORWARD the email to [email protected] and delete.

  • Help!? cant gift songs due to error message album only - but they are not!

    Hi!
    I recently updated my itunes and now 9 out of 10 songs I try to gift won't as they are apparantly 'album only' - but they aren't!
    anyone know if this is solvable? Or is it a glitch with itunes and vista - but I had no problems till I said yes to latest version of itunes!
    many thanks

    Contact iTS support about it.

    They'll probably need to know the exact track names. You can right-click on tracks in ITS, "Copy iTunes store URL", and paste them into your message.

  • Mail says my gmail usernames and passwords are wrong but they're not

    I'm trying to set up my gmail account on my laptop and iPhone but everytime I try I get an error message that reads "Logging in to the Gmail IMAP server “imap.gmail.com” failed. Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then click Continue. If the information isn’t correct, you cannot receive messages." I get this message on both devices but when I log onto gmail from a web browser using the same info everything works perfectly. The username and password are correct but mail say they're wrong. Any ideas?

  • HT5538 Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password

    Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password, the problem happens also with iMessage . Please help

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • IPhone deploy gets Login Error (Invalid username/password).  Android works

    Hi, we're developing an ADF Mobile app on JDeveloper 11.1.2.3 which does initial authentication against Weblogic.
    The login & app works fine on Android, but fails when we deploy the same app to iPhone (iOS 5.0.1, but also 5.1, 6.0 & 6.1 in the Simulator).
    Specific message is :
    Login Error
    Invalid username/password. If the problem persists, please contact your system administrator.
    It's definitely on the network and reaching the login server, because when we shut down the server or make the network unavailable, the message reports "The login server is not reachable"
    All I can think is it's possibly encrypting the password differently within iOS.
    Not having much luck on Google or other searches, so any thoughts are appreciated.
    Thanks
    Peter

    I found a bit more information in the Weblogic Managed Server logs proving the login request reaches the server, but gives this error. Not much luck on google so, if this rings any bells for anyone thoughts are appreciated.

  • Prime shows wrong cli credentials but they are good

    Hey!
    Prime discovered both Nexus 7k Core Router. All fine...
    On the first one Prime is getting all informations with entered CLI credentials in the device work centre.
    On the second Nexus it always shows "wrong cli credentials" but they are 100% correct.
    Login into the second Nexus via putty and the same credentials is also fine.
    I can't convince Prime tocollect the Informations from the second Nexus.
    Even ssh from prime cli to this device ist ok...
    Any ideas?

    ok, tried all that was said here. Nothing worked ... I do have banners, but no # sign ... removed them anyways ... then thinking about the banners might be causing issues for what PI expects ... (i do have my prompts changed to mask the platform) ... so i defaulted back to regular prompts ... WORKED !!!!
    So here is what works for me ... no banners, no custom prompts AND device added through the 'classic theme'.
    I presume the expectation is that the device begins with minimal config ... the rest is pushed through the config templates deployment. But have the developers thought of existing devices ? is it IOS version related (target device) or simply a bug.
    BTW, PI v2.1
    Edit --- needing to clarify, for some models (namely UC520) ... removed banner, custom prompts and i could add it comfortably through the Lifecycle interface.
    Others (3550), could be inserted easily with banners and custom prompts ... rather inconsistent, though at least , i have working recipes.
    Thanks for the help all :)

  • Frustrating  that either my mac can communicate with iCloud alone or my iphone , But the information on my calendar is not merging! My password on my yahoo account is according to icloud wrong , but it isn't ! Only pages and other apps could  be passed to

    Frustrating  that either my mac can communicate with iCloud alone or my iphone , But the information on my calendar is not merging! My password on my yahoo account is according to icloud wrong , but it isn't ! Only pages and other apps could  be passed to the i phone . The local store says I should pay for them solving the problem . I doubt they will listen to all the aspects before I search again and again (and pay again and again??) Allready been there many times, downloaded many things!!

    She was as frustrated as I and was going to kick the problem "upstairs."  She felt that by now iCloud had been out long enough for them to have resolved the issues without having to resort to fixes from the outside (so in essence, I would have to say that she agrees with you that they should be able to provide a resolution for their own software).
    I have more than just that issue on my MBP (iPhoto keeps asking me to "upgrade" everytime I open it, old Safari windows open when I restart or turn the machine on from a shutdown....I think it's possessed.  I'm able to do everything that I want to do, but it's very annoying....) and so I'll be working with her again when she returns to work on Monday.  I do have to say that she doesn't rush and has spent at a minimum 2 hours each night for the last 2 nights with me over the phone (talk about califlower ear!) 
    She had me do a reinstall of Lion last night and as far as I can tell, it fixed nothing....  

  • Failure to synchronize simulated PXI 5124 cards, but they synchronize without error on physical hardware.

    I need to create a software development machine based on our existing experimental machine. We use two PXI 5124 cards mounted in a PXI 1042 Chassis and run LabVIEW 2013.
    According to what google has returned, it is currently impossible to simulate a PXI Chassis, so I have the two devices mounted individually. Here is the experimental machine device list:
    and here are the simulated devices on my development machine.
    I have verified that the simulated devices are working by creating a simple program that graphs the output of the simulated devices. See attached.
    However, when I run the program that we use on our experimental machine, the program fails to synchronize the clocks. I'm not sure if I would be allowed to post this program, so I have merely attached a picture of the part that creates an error.
    Up to this point, there are no errors, but when synchronization begins, I receive the following error:
    Error -250027 occurred at niTClk Configure For Homogeneous Triggers.vi:2010001
    Possible reason(s):
    NI-TClk does not support the specified session.
    Make sure that the sessions you pass to NI-TClk are supported by NI-TClk.
    Session index (starts at zero): 0
    Using probes, I can determine that there are (seemingly) valid resource names [9] going into the Configure VI:
    These are not fundamentally different from the resource names [2] on our experimental machine:
    According to this page I should be able to synchronize. While no longer in the same chassis, the two devices are still in the "same computer," are they not? Nevertheless, the error message makes me think I'm trying to do something that isn't allowed.
    I've tried to look at other posts, but they are mainly concerned with FGEN, which I am not using.
    Any ideas?

    Hello,
    By default, arbitrary waveform generators use High-Resolution Clocking to generate a waveform if the sampling rate that you choose is not an exact integer division of the maximum frequency of function generator. When High-Resolution Clocking is used, the sampling rate you specify can actually be coerced to a slightly different value than specified.
    The problem with this is that if your specified sample rate is coerced into a non interger it will not be evenly divisible into other frequencies. When synchronizing multiple devices using NI-TClk, the algorithm will attempt to choose a TClk frequency that all sampling rates can be divided into evenly. Having an actual sampling rate that has been coerced into a non devisable value throws off the NI-TClk algorithm resulting in error -250016.
    Could you try to disable High-Resolution Clocking and use Divide-Down Clocking instead. You can do this in LabVIEW using the Clock Mode property of the niFgen Property Node, and setting the value to NIFGEN_VAL_DIVIDE_DOWN.
    Please let me know if this helps.

    If you do not lock that folder immediately after deleting all the contents, it will simply populate again (Resume - a "feature" in Lion). You do that by doing a Get Info (highlight folder and press Command + I keys), unlock the lock at the bottom, enter your admin password, then check the box to lock the folder. lock the lock and you're done.
    Yes, that is correct. The alternative is to quit all applications prior to logging out. Lion will then have a chance to remove the saved states.

    And, for the OP:
    It has also been a regular feature of Mac OS to automatically open any window that was open at shutdown. To avoit that behavior, simply close any Finder windows and  properly quit applications by closing their window and using Command + Q (or File >Quit).
    This was true only for the Finder. Prior to Lion, no other apps would launch unless they were included in the Login Items for the account. And the OS would not restore windows for other apps.
    A very small number of apps (TextWrangler is an example) implemented this capability prior to Lion. They could restore previously opened windows. But that is an application feature, and can be controlled by the application's preferences. Lion implements it at the system level, and users have virtually no control on a per application basis.
