Lumia 800 keeps losing SMTP password for POP3/IMAP...

I have set this up three times now and it works for 2 or 3 days but then loses my SMTP password (smtp.hosts.co.uk).
Suggestions very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Richard

I have had this issue quite a bit with the ovi mail. Butt your server address suggest a different email.
Do you have more than one email set up on the device? Does it have the same issues?

Device keeps losing smtp password on email

Device keeps losing the password on email and require it to be reentered on regular basis.

Hi,
I've upgraded my OS to 10.2.1.3062 and now things work great. This problem seems to be solved.

When exporting files to web pages Aperture keeping losing files, so for instance, if I choose to export 600 images to a new web page, it might do 524 images but not the full 600. I've tried resetting Aperture, it's the latest version etc etc. Help please!

If anyone can help me with this I would be seriously grateful.
When exporting mutliple files to web pages Aperture keeping losing files, so for instance, if I choose to export 600 images to a new web page, it might make 524 pages but not the full 600. I've tried resetting Aperture and its persmission and am using the latest version of 3.
I have 3600 images which I need to upload as sublfolders, each with their own URL and at the moment Aperture is dropping of anything from 1 to 90 images.
This is critical as people need to see each and every on of these images online. So if a file has 600 photos in it, Aperture should make a URL with 600 full image pages. And this is what it's not doing. On small files, say 30 or so it seems to work well, it's when it gets to more than that the problem starts.
I've used Aperture in the past under previous versions and not had this problem.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.
Bob.

Hi Jack,
Thanks for responding (as it seems as though no one else has been able to provide any insight as of yet)! Not sure if you saw my recent post, but the version of Aperture on the 2008 MacBook has been upgraded to 3.1.2 (not sure how; I bought it in 2009, but only have OS X 10.5.8... which apparently can't house 3.1.2 of Aperture, but hey, like many other anomalies i'm encountering, I'm no longer surprised!). I am unable to upgrade it any further, as it warns me that my OS X does not fit the requirements. I exported the projects as libraries; however, like I posted before, apparently these are from too old of a version for the new Aperture (3.3.1) to handle and import.
It's getting to the point where I'd almost pay to upgrade the OS X on my previous MacBook (10.5.8) to something newer in order to THEN update Aperture to a newer version; however, my previous MacBook simply cannot handle this (the specs are awful -- hence my decision to save up and upgrade to the newest MBP with Retina).
I've spent hours upon hours transferring files, libraries as projects, previews, versions, even masters (though, apparently some of them aren't accessible?) with no luck. I've rebuilt the library and reprocessed everything. And this is all after having to return one MBP already since Aperture 3.3.1 is glitch-y as it is, and froze everything for having a "managed library". So, now that I know that I have to deal with a referenced library in Aperture... I just need to actually transfer my previous library to my new one (hopefully WITH adjustments since these are years worth of photos and work).
Again, any help is appreciated. I've lost enough sleep, time, and vision health over this at this point.
Also, I know Migration Assistant is an option, I was told that it wouldn't work properly anyway because of the different operating systems, and the potential for problems.

I keep getting an error message when I enter my password for iCloud IMAP server

A number of users who have chosen to set up iCloud mail manually in the Mail application seem to encounter problems with continually being asked to sign in. This may well be a result of incorrect settings such as not setting 'Apple Token' for authentication under the accounts advanced settings.
A more general approach to remedying such problems would be to turn off Mail in System Preferences/Settings > iCloud, checking the account has been removed from Mail (and deleting it if it hasn't), restarting and then enabling iCloud Mail again from System Preferences/Settings > iCloud. This will ensure the correct settings are used.

I keep having trouble with my pro it keep asking me password for my yahoo account

I keep having trouble with my pro it keep asking me password for my yahoo account

These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here - I've asked the hosts to remove your phone number from your post.
If you can't remember the answers then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox) - but some recent posts are saying that Apple have temporarily suspended the reseting of security question/answers whilst account security processes are improved, so it may take longer.

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.

Ipad keeps losing keychain passwords

My iPad keeps losing its keychain passwords. I can access them in Keychain on my Mac, but when I go to an app or website on the iPad, it does not auto fill the data. Doesn't always happen, however. Any suggestions?

Mail keeps deleting the password for iCloud?

Using mail on an iMac, mail will not keep the iCloud password and deletes it after it has been saved. It also keeps taking the accounts offline when I am trying to send e-mail frustrating! Why not just log onto the accounts as outlined in the preferences.

Thanks for the reply but it seems that something else is also going on.
When this little window appears asking for my password I am given the option to "cancel" but nothing happens if I click that box. I'm reallly given only two options: typing my password into that box or cancelling the MAIL program, shutting down my internet connection and then re-opening MAIL. If I do neither of these I'm frozen.
If I restart the program I find two things. All accounts are off-line and my password has disappeared from Preferences?Account Information. If I re-type my password and click all accounts back on-line I'm okay.
But what bothers me most is the removal of my password from Preferences. How could some failure to connect to the server be responsible for this? Couldn't the problem somehow be in the MAIL program? Maybe this problem is triggered by a failed connecion to the server, but how could anything like that affect settings in my program? If something happening out there in server-land could erase my password I almost feel like I'm being hacked.

if go to Preferences/Account Info I see that my password has been removed. I have to re-enter it there and then instruct accountsto go back on-line(I have two accounts active adn it will always be only the password that had been challenged that is gone; the one for the other account is still there.)
So, difficulty connecting to the server or not, ow could that effectively change settings in my program - that is, the password I have set in my Preferences. Whatever is happening is somehow corrupting the MAIL program.

Autodiscover.xml for POP3 & IMAP

We have just created an autodiscover.xml file to auto-configure POP3 / IMAP clients for our hosting services
I have two queries about our config which is working, but needs a little tweaking.
1: Is it possible to have outlook prompt whether the user wishes to use POP3 or IMAP during an Autodiscover automated setup?
2: How do we specify that outlook should use the full email address as the username? We have setup <DomainRequired>on</DomainRequired>, but this does not seem to be doing the trick.
Here is our autodiscover.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that you want to auto-configure the outlook clients for IMAP/POP3 and SMTP. The following Autodiscover XML file achieve that the
mail service provider enables users to log on by using both the POP3 protocol and the IMAP protocol, but prefers that users use the POP3 protocol, the POP3 settings should be listed first in the Autodiscover file:

Mail doesn't save password for iCloud IMAP account (works fine with other email providers)

Mavericks Mail doesn't save the password for my iCloud IMAP account no matter how many times I enter it into Preferences or enter it when prompted. Doesn't seem to be saving in Keychain or wherever it should be saved. Passwords for all other email providers that I use are saved. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks!!!!!

Great, thanks A LOT! Best answer on that issue and so simple!!!! Now it works perfectly fine

Mail keeps asking for password for my imap yahoo account?

I have both a Rogers Yahoo and a Bell email account. The Rogers imap account keeps asking for my password however the password is correctly entered. Help!

There's a long thread on here somewhere about Yahoo constantly requesting the password. Seems to have been going on some time with no real conclusion.
However, I did see a mention somewhere else that a user managed to 'fix' the issue by changing his password so that it had no capital letters in it. Don't know whether this will help in your case, but maybe worth a shot if you pw has any cap letters.
If I can find the link I'll post back.

Iphone keeps requesting smtp password

I just set up a replacement phone today. Entred my mail accounts and everyting was fine until a few hours ago: I am repeatedly asked for my password
Error is " Cannot send mail-No password provided for "SMTP:[email protected] lLease go to settings and enter.
I have cleared existing password and re entered and still it will not send. I have deleted the account and still no luck. I am able to receive email as well as send form my mobileme account. Please advise. I am on iphone 4 3G OS 4.3.5

well they create a code lock for the phone for a reason... i think it's ridiculous , especially for those of us with very secure passwords ...
if someone finds your phone... there is a lot of private info in there...

I am repeatedly asked for password for POP3 account? Sometimes it accepts it but usually it takes at least 3 attempts?

I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro. Prior to this I have always used a PC. Having set up a POP3 email account I am now continuously being asked for the password, despite entering it in the email account set up. Sometimes it works but usually I have to type the password in 3 or 4 times - sometimes more. It is extremely frustrating. Any help gratefully received.

If my MBP has trouble reaching the pop mail server it apparently assumes the password is wrong and displays the password request screen. I always click cancel until it goes away, usually three times as you mention. That takes the account off line. Later I put the account back on line and it works fine. I see this once or twice a week.
It happens with the Comcast pop server and the AIM IMAP server.
