Messages keeps asking for yahoo login credentials

I just recently started using more of the in built apps such as mail and message and I'm now reminded why I chose not to in the first place.
Yahoo is having difficulty remaining connected, I keep getting the wrong credentials pop up window every now and then after I fixed the issue, so far the only solution I found was to remove all internet accounts then re-add them but this will be the second time I've done this today. I've read some forums threads that suggest that it's an issue with the outgoing STMP or something.
I'v tried removing all associated keychains > verify disk, removing the Yahoo account and re-entering the mail server details in Mail app.

Why does mavericks keep asking for my login password?

why does mavericks keep asking for my login password?

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

My Mac keeps asking for my "login" keychain after I changed my password on my Mac. How do I stop the popups?

I forgot the password to my Mac, so I reset my password, and ever since then, there have been popups asking for my "login" keychain password. I enter it every time, but they still pop up. Also, my Mail keeps asking for the password to my email, and iMessage is on, but I can't receive any messages, and the window won't even pop up.
Does anyone know the solution for this?

Go to your Utilities folder and open Keychain Access. Follow the steps here: Mac OS X: Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password.

MacBook keeps asking for the 'login' keychain password?

Well I updated my Macbook to Mavericks and after restarting it a couple days later, a window annoyingly keeps popping up asking for the keychain password which I've unfortunately forgotten. I researched a little and someone suggested trying the KeyChain First Aid and if that fails, to delete it but neither work. How can I stop this from constantly popping up on my screen?
Thankyou!!!

Product number CQ183A can not access setting in EWS keeps asking for admin login and password.

HP Photosmart 5510d B11H
CQ183A
Windows 7, Vista, and Linux
I installed the printer everything works until I try to access certain settings in the Embedded Web Server. I pops up a box asking for admin login. Initially, the status page claimed the Admin password was set even though I never set that up. Through chatting with tech support rests cleared this, it is now reporting Not Set. However, I still can not login to check/change settings etc.
I think this printer had been purchased then returned to the store because the manual was missing. I downloaded the manual and did not find any mention of how to access the password settings. So far tech support has not been able to answer my question,
Is there a default?
How do I access the EWS settings -> security to setup a password?

Hello MREnder,
From what I am reading, you may need to call in to get a factory reset done. These resets can only be done over the phone. You can find the number at eprintcenter.com under the support section.

ITunes 12 keeps asking for repeated Login several times a day

Hello All,
ever since upgrading to Yosemite last year on my Mac-Mini.
iTunes asks me to Login every time I Boot-Up, and then repeatedly several times throughout the day!
And these Logins always have to be done twice each time. (The Pop-Up window takes my password, then Pops-Up again empty so I have to write it again!).
This is really starting to get on my nerves.
Is there anyway I can Login to iTunes & stay logged in, like all my other apps? (i.e. iCloud etc.).
Thank you in advance for any suggestions on remedying this annoying situation!
Much appreciated!!!

Hi all,
this is continuing to happen, but a little bit of an update. I tried a couple of fixes mentioned in the thread that discussed having the iTunes Store app crash.
1) Checking the cookies settings in Safari - mine was set to the recommended setting
2) Launching iTunes, then tapping the "Store" button
My issue seems to be in actuallu connecting to my iTunes account, which seems a common factor in some of the posts here.
I have verified that I am logged into Game Center, that I am logged into iCloud and that I am logged into the Store via the settings app. However, it often asks me to log in again. Sometimes twice in a row. I have seen error messages "Can't Connect, try again?" and seen it accept the entry and disapear.
Any suggestions will be DEEPLY appreaciated. Thank you!

Icloud ios8 keeps asking for log in

my iCloud iOS 8 on my new iPhone 6 plus, that I've had for a month, keeps asking for my login not only mine. (also the person I share my cloud family share). I've also experience or my phone partners 6plus has used cellular data instead of the Wi-Fi that it's on, it's strange because I am on the same Wi-Fi with my 6plus so I know that's working. both bought a month ago at ATT. ATT has no information.

If you still have the old MBA, consider wiping the new one, reinstalling the OS using the recovery mode, and on first boot, use the Setup Assistant to do the migration. See Pondini's Setup New Mac guide for details. Eliminates all keychain and ownership issues.

Cant receive my yahoo mail on my latest ipad, keeps asking for my password, when I respond same message- password

Suddenly can't receive my yahoo mail on my latest ipad, keeps asking for my password, when i
put it in,same message flashes up, reset does not work, also waiting for apple time lapse, still does not want to give me my yahoo mail on this format, tried talking to apple online contact, cut off, I'm receiving through safari, nothing through my email app

Give it time. Yahoo has been doing things to their servers that often muck up the Mail app. Usually it takes 24-48 hours to run its course then it'll work again.
if it doesn't clear up by the end of the weekend, you can remove and readd your account, but chances are it'll just start to work.

Yahoo account keeps asking for password on apple mail

hi im running mountain lion and my yahoo account keeps asking for my password every now and then and its getting really annoying. i enter the right password but then it will ask for it again later. its only with my yahoo account. can anyone help? thank you!

go to applications > utilities > keychain access
you may need to enter your password to unlock the lock in the left upper corner.
under keychains select login
under category select passwords
make sure that there are no duplicate entries for yahoo mail. If there are, delete them
if that doesn't work, delete all of the yahoo entries, and go back in mail.app > preferences and delete the yahoo account and reenter the account info from scratch.
doing keychain first aid wouldn't hurt either.
in keychain access, do option-command-A
verify and then repair.
this will probably fix it.

Why does CC keeps asking for login? Keeps showing up as trial.

Since about a week ago, when I launch any Adobe CC it keeps asking me to login. Afer I login, it says that it's a trial version until it syncs up with my account with a "registration" button. I have to do this every time I launch any Adobe CC product.
What gives?

iTunes will ask you to enter your password when buying songs for each browsing "session". This wouldn't explain why you are being asked to enter it every 3 minutes though.
I would suggest logging out of your Apple ID on iTunes and logging back in. Also, you may verify that your computer is "Authorized" for use with your iTunes content.
To do this on a Mac, go to the "Store" tab at the top of the screen and click "Authorize this Computer"
