  • Mac mail not accepting password

    Hi, my name is Christine. I am trying to connect to my mac mail account. It keeps prompting me for a proper password, however, when I type it in, it declines it. I am not sure why. I've tried different passwords but it still won't go online. Any suggestions?

    Check the correct mail parameter.
    SMTP/POP3/IMAP server, port, authentication
    account name and password.

  • When i try to open a document, adobe will not accept password

    cannot open file because adobe will not accept password adobe x

    Odd. I downloaded [DH]RQ-7_UAV_US_Army.pdf which indicates the password you posted, and it opened WITHOUT any prompt for password at all. (Adobe Reader XI Mac OS X 10.8.5)
    I downloaded P51D_Mustang_Ferocious_Frankie.pdf and it opens in Preview, Acrobat X, but not Reader XI as you described.
    Here's what I did to get it to open.
    Open the PDF in Acrobat.
    Click File>Properties.
    Under the Security tab, click "Change Settings..."
    Where it says "Compatibility:" change it from "Acrobat 5 and later" to "Acrobat X and later".
    Enter the password (paper-replika.com) below.
    Click OK.
    Save the PDF.
    Open it with Reader XI.
    It will accept the password and open the PDF.
    This ISN'T a Reader issue, but an issue with the save settings when the PDF was created.
    Unfortunately, for those who DON'T have Acrobat to make the necessary changes, it will remain a problem.
    Perhaps you could contct the website and inform them that they need to change their compatibiliy settings in their PDFs.
    But... It's NOT a Reader issue.

  • Secured wi fi network gives timeout and will not accept password.  Works on i pad and iphone

    My Macbook Pro network was secured and worked on ipad and iphone.  Now it gives me a "connection timed out" message on laptop and will not accept password.  It works on ipad and iphone.  Anyone with an explanation.  I cannot get it to let me delete from the macbook pro.  Had to set a new unsecured network to just get on internet.  Running 10.7.4 and is up to date.

    I deleted all and then set up an unsecured network.  When I go to system preferences>Network and where the Network Name is, I click join other networks, then click show networks the secured net work is still there and when I click on it, it gives me the timeout message.  This is causing a problem in trying to get my wireless printer back on line as it keeps going to this secured network.  Can you help with this problem.  I would like to remove the secured network completely from my computer.  I have gone to the Advanced and deleted all.  The only one showing there is the unsecured network.

  • After upgrade to ios6 iPad does not accept password to wifi, I cannot connect to internet. Pls help me...

    After upgrade to ios6 iPad does not accept password to wifi, I cannot connect to internet. Pls help me...

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • Mail app not accepting password

    I have 7 e-mail accounts. 6 are Gmail and 1 is my university e-mail. Three of them are old (Gmail), three of them are new (Gmail). For some reason, my mail application refuses the password on the old ones and not the new ones. I recently had to change all my passwords because my PayPal account was compromised but Mail continues to reject the password on the old three. This has happened once before too.
    Odd thing is Mail usually accepts those passwords and I can still log in through gmail.com so the password is correct. It's very frustrating,

    Hey, I had the same exact problem.
    This seemed to fix it: https://www.google.com/accounts/DisplayUnlockCaptcha
    Just enter in your account info and it clears up the problem.

  • Yahoo mail will not accept password on new iphone 5

    Yahoo mail will not accept my password and load e-mails.  What to do?

    I e-mailed Yahoo for help with Yahoo mail and was given the following instructions:  Remove Yahoo account from your iPhone, turn the phone off and back on, and then re-add to trigger a re-sync on your Yahoo acccount.  This worked with no problem!!  I was also given a link for a Yahoo Help article which I have included below.  For those of you who are having issues, I hope this solves them!

  • Outlook 2013 not accepting password

    I've recently tried to reconnect my work email account to Outlook. However, when I try to enter my password (which I'm sure is correct, as I can log onto the account online with the password), Outlook will not accept it.
    Any advice as to how I can get this figured out?
    Thanks!

    I've had been dealing with the same issue for three weeks now. For years Outlook worked fine, then one day it asked for the password - and even when providing the correct
    password (proven by the fact that the very same password was working on my phone and the web client), still didn't accept it. 
    Finally, about 10 minutes ago, I fixed it. Before I go back to the binge drinking I’m doing to celebrate, I wanted to share everything I tried and the final solution.
    I recommend trying each approach in order – they go from the simple to the increasingly complicated / time consuming. Hopefully one of the approaches will work for you.
    My theory is that Windows somehow stored the wrong password somewhere, and kept on overwriting the correct one. I’m just very glad that is working now.    
    NO LIABILITY IS ASUMED – FOLLOW PROCEDURES AT YOUR OWN RISK. If you’re not a professional, seek professional help.  
    Here's all I tried:
    APPROACH # 1: Delete the Exchange account and try to recreate it
    1. I tried this approach in two ways: I deleted the Exchange account from within Outlook and in different attempts, deleted the account from within
    the Mail profile from the Mail area of the Control Panel. 
    2. Try to recreate the account from within Outlook using autoconfigure. Outlook would not let me - it would give me an error ("encrypted connection
    not availabe with your server"), then would try to set it up "unencrypted", then it would ask me to go to the Mail setting in the Control Panel
    3. When creating the account in the Mail area of the Control Panel, everything would seem to work - all green check marks when creating the account
    with autoconfigure.
    4. When trying to open Outlook, it would again prompt for the password, and would not recognize the correct password.
    5. I did a similar approach doing manual settings. All settings would be correct within the Mail area of the Control Panel, but Outlook would still not accept the password.
    APPROACH #2: Delete the Profile and try to recreate it
    1. Went into the Mail area of the Control Panel and deleted the profile. 
    2. In essence followed steps 2 – 5 from above (creating a profile first, then the account). No luck.
    APPROACH # 3: Use the profile assistant from my cloud Exchange provider. (Not sure if this a proprietary thing of my Exchange provider Intermedia.net.)
    1. Delete profile.
    2. Downloaded the "profile assistant" from the "Setup" area of my Intermedia.net account.
    3. When trying to run it, it would do something weird (it even stumped the Intermedia.net tech support guy): instead of creating a profile, it would
    simply say "password saved" and prompt for the user name and password.
    3. Of course, when trying to start Outlook, the password would not be recognized.
    APPROACH # 4: Delete stored credentials
    1. On the search box, type in “credential” and go to the “Credential Manager” that you will find.
    2. Delete all credentials (both “Web” and “Windows”) that appear to have anything to do with Outlook, Exchange or email. (BTW – I tried this several times, going as
    far as deleting ALL credentials I could find in my last attempt)
    3. Went back and tried approaches 1 through 3, deleting the credentials before each attempt. No luck
    APPROACH #5: Uninstalled and reinstall Outlook.
    1. Did this, then tried approaches 1 through 4.
    2. It didn’t work.
    3. Yeah. I know. Still recovering from this one.   
    APPROACH #6: The registry (I think)
    I know Windows stores passwords in the Registry as well. Ib spite of not being really sure what a Registry is, I did a web search and found the mysterious area where subdirectores with cryptic
    names (like 124ww244ab-Zs—u) are created and deleted for each app. Looking at the activity there felt like listening to the musings of a BSG Hybrid.
    Found the right directory for Outlook. Renamed it by adding “-old” to it.
    Did approaches 1 thru 4. No luck.
    APPROACH #7: Create a new User Account in my computer (Victory at last)
    I wish I had tried this first.
    The account in my computer is linked to my Microsoft account. So first, go into your Account and disconnect it from your Windows Account, making it a local account on the PC.
    Create a new account with Administrative rights. Connect this account to your Windows account.
    I went back to approach 1, but when I saw the same errors, skipped it and went to #3. This worked at last.
     I hope this info is useful. Now back to partying.

  • Outlook 2010 does not accept password & prompts repeatedly for a password

    I'm trying to configure an exchange account. I can access the account on outlook.office365.com & my phone.  After I enter my user name & password & click next, a Windows Security window opens up ( the window says Mail Application, connecting
    to my username, remember my credentials) asking for my password. When I enter My password it is not accepted and prompts repeatedly for a password. When I cancel a Microsoft Exchange window pops up with the microsoft exchange server address & my mailbox.
    Checking the name opens up the Windows Security windows & My password it is not accepted and prompts repeatedly for a password. I also get an error message: the name can't be resolved. Connection to MS exchange unavailable.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Hi,
    For the issue of save password setting not retained in Outlook, I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned in below KB article and see if it helps:
    http://support.microsoft.com/?id=290684
    For the specific error message you mentioned in the post:
    "the name can't be resolved. Connection to MS exchange unavailable)"
    Usually, it means there is something wrong on your Exchange server side, I would suggest you to check with your mail administrator on this.

  • HT2954 email will not accept password

    email will not accept password

    Hi Colby,
    I'm thinking they might slowly be warning people that mobileme is going away , & you have to switch by June or so. And, it seems many iDevices have this detection or change worked in, but not Macs running older OSX versions.
    Might as well setup a new account now.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    ▪ Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    ▪ SSL Required: Yes
    ▪ Port: 993
    ▪ Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    ▪ Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
