My apple tv does not ask for a password after connecting to wifi

I'm not tech savey at all!! I've just hooked up my apple tv. it connects to wifi but doesn't prompt me for a password. The wifi is password protected. Any ideas?

Unfortunately as AppleTV does not have a web browser it can't show that webpage to connect.
Just to be sure I assume this is a webpage with a company name of the wifi supplier for thata area/group of residences asking you to login using some credentials and accept terms and conditions, not a configuration page for a router or similar?
You might be able to share an internet connection from a computer over ethernet but sometimes the terms of these connections prohibit that.

Erased all saved passwords, rebooted, now TB does not ask for new password!

I erased all saved passwords as I've had to change the passwords on my accounts. I then rebooted and now TB does not ask for new password. I have rebooted entire computer and still no change.
Thanks!

I presume you removed the passwords via Tools > Options > Security > Passwords tab.
Do you have these settings in Account Settings:
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account.
* select: 'Check for new messages at start up'
* select: 'check for new messages every eg: 15 minutes'
* select : 'Automatically download new messages'
make other prefered settings and click on OK to save changes.

HT204400 Apple TV will not ask for my wifi password to connect - it says it is connected but it is not- i click on my wifi and says connected but does not ask for my password

I just hooked up my Apple TV - it is all connected correctly- when my wifi comes up on my tv screen i click and select it. It then says it is "connected" , but it is not as is it has not asked for the password for my wifi. I have turned it all off and back on, I have restarted it as well. I do know why it will not ask for my password - am I missing something?

It will not ask after it is already connected. Is ATV working? Can you connect to the iTunes store, Netflix, etc?

I cannot hook to my wifi it shows it but will not allow me to hook to it. I have a password but it does not ask for the password just tells me to dismiss

My I phone 4 will not hook to my wifi. All it says is cannot connect to netgear then dismiss. I have a pssword but it does not ask for it Thanks

Well, what exactly isn't working? Do you get any errors? What system are you on? As a start, check this:

I have an airport extreme space station which works fine, but does not ask for the password so anyone can get on my network. I don't know what to do to fix this.

I set up airport wifi with a WEP password, but it never asks for the password and anyone can enter my network...what to do?

Is it possible to backtrack your way out of the keychain?
Yes:
Run the Keychain Access utility found in \Applications\Utilities
In the category column (on the left side of the utilities' window), select "All Items."
In the right column look for your Network Name. It will have a "Kind" of "AirPort network password."
Delete every entry that has both your Network Name with this Kind.
What can I do to test or reset?
You can completely erase all the base station's passwords by performing either a "hard" or "factory default" reset. You can also temporarily disable these passwords for up to five minutes so that you will have enough time to change them using the AirPort Utility, by just performing a "soft" reset. I would recommend this one first.
This would also be a good time to consider using WPA or WPA2, instead of WEP, as WEP is no longer considered secure.
I got the airport extreme based used with no softward and set up with reset on airport base and followed instructions.
You can download a copy of the AirPort Utility, that runs on OS X Tiger here.

When I turn it on it is slow to startup and does not ask for my password.

Snow Leopard 10.6.8
Macbook late 2008
So I turn it on and it takes a couple minutes to start up, it takes a while before gettign past the grey screen to the apple loading screen and then just goes straight to the desktop.
I just erased the drive 2 months ago and put on the OS, I have used it maybe 3 times since then.

Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
If it is, then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
After repairing use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for restarting from your hard drive.

My iphone does not ask for password for itunes

Ever since I installed ios 6 to my 2 iphone 4's. It does not ask for a password to download games or make purchases. I have a 5 year old son who can now purchase at will, how do I reset or fix that? Where is my security?

Thanks for letting me know. I never even checked to see if it was configurable.
Edit: I don't see where you can turn enable or disable the requirement for a passcode for udates? Can you tell me where to find it? The path you referred to only seems to relate to purchases.

As of Friday Night, Apple MAIL (in Tiger) asks for imap password? Why?

As of Friday night, when accessing my email (via AOl's imap server enabled through Tiger's 10.4.8 Mail, I can no longer get my new mail. I changed no settings on the computers (this began occurring on two of my Macs--a 15-inch G4 Titanium PB 867 and a Dual 1 GHZ Quicksilver) within the Apple Mail apps. I just started getting this weird alert/dialog box saying "unable to recognize your 'imap' password, please re-enter"--which I then did--to no avail. I could not get any new mail.
Now, on my other Mac, a G4 Upgraded B&W G3 running Panther, the mail runs fine. I can see my new mail--which I tested by sending a message from the "Tiger" computers to myself. The message would be sent--I could hear the "whoosh"--but not show up in the Tiger mailboxes. Of course--got in the Panther 10.3.9 Mail In-box no sweat!
Rebuilt permissions on both machines, still no change. The e-mail works fine when I access it via the web (through AOL), but I just can't figure out what happened since Friday night? Is AOL having IMAP server trouble? I just dunno. All I do know is that my mail is now broken under Tiger and I now have to go through more hoops to get my mail--the extra webmail shenanigans are a kludge, and having an Airport card in the PB is sort of negated a lot having to do teh whole webmail access when it worked so well before just hitting my "Mail" icon.
I've checked the forums and seen nothing mentioned about any "problems" since last night, sooooo, I guess maybe it's ME...but, on both computers? Weird.
Any help wopuld be greatly appreciated.
Thanks much,
Yusuf Lamont

OK, I just want to make clear that Mail is asking for the Keychain password over and over again, periodically, while Mail is open. It does not ask for the passwords to individual accounts. There is no problem logging into any of the three email accounts I have activated. The normal behavior of Mail is to ask for the Keychain password once upon launch. What it does now, is continue to ask for the Keychain password periodically - perhaps every fifteen minutes, or so.
I have tried:
Running Keychain Repair. It did find problems, repaired them, but this did not resolve the issue.
Disabled accounts one at a time, hoping to isolate the problem to one account - no luck. Then I disabled all at once. Mail continued asking for Keychain password, even though all accounts were disabled.
Deleted Keychain Items associated with these e-mail accounts, and re-created them. This did not resolve the issue.
Cursing Mail each time it asked for, and I had to re-enter, the Keychain password. This, also, did not resolve the issue.
I can't see anything in the Console associated with Mail. What would cause Mail to ask for the main password after it's already been entered? It seems to me that if the problem were coming from a server, it should cease once the account's been disabled. If it were a Keychain issue, I would expect to have problems with other apps. Obviously, it's not a problem with the Keychain Items themselves since they were deleted and re-created. That leads me to think the problem is with Mail. But, I've been wrong before....

Why is my Thunderbird email account suddenly not asking for a password?

I have recently had my MacBook Pro and iPad stolen so I have bought a new iPad, since syncing to my existing Apple ID account I keep getting another Apple ID popping up asking for the password. Does this mean that the owner of this appe ID have my stuff?

You should change your AppleID password NOW. And if it says it was registered under another AppleID, the thief has probably done it.

SOST Repeat Send does not ask for new fax number or e-mail address.

SOST Repeat Send does not ask for new fax number or e-mail address. It does work for one user but not for any others. It is supposed to ask you if you want to change the fax number or e-mail address if you were the user that sent the document. Does anyone know if there are settings that control this somewhere? Using SAP R/3 vers. 4.7

Dear Friends,
Normally, we can change the receipient address, if we send. We can not change the receipient address of another user.
Check Note 685164 - Resending with recipient change.
As per this note Go to SM30 and add parameter "SOST_REC_CHANGE" value "X" in view "SXPARAMS".
Now, if you click "repeat send" icon, it will ask below two option in dialog box:
The message is sent again. You can change the recipient before
sending. The sent message then appears as a
as a new send request in the list
Send to same recipients again
Change recipients before sending
It is working to me ....
Thanks & Regards,

Application Server Control does not ask for password

Hi all-
I just installed App Server (as part of Collaboration Suite) and am working on security. For some reason, the App Server Control for the apps tier does not ask for a username/password. Anyone know how to fix that glaring hole? Infrastructure does ask for user/pass, just not apps.
Thanks!
Rob

I had to clear authenticated sessions AND cookies (in Firefox). Clearing only one or the other isn't enough.

My Apple TV does not recognise My iTunes password. It works on all other devices but not Apple TV? Any ideas why or how to fix?

Any ideas why my Apple TV does not recognise my iTunes password, when all other devices, including these communities are good with it?

Hi Mick2291,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I'd suggest restarting, and then restoring, your Apple TV if the issue persists:

Cant login to itunes anymore, Keep getting error Apple ID does not have permission to access iTunes Connect.

Cant login to itunes anymore with any of my iphones. I have 3. Now I get an error with the following for any phone I try: Apple ID does not have permission to access iTunes Connect. I have 2 separate Apple Id Accounts for each phone, both get the same error.

Anyone have a clue what to do?
Dont even get the option to sync anymore....doesnt highlight.

ITunes Connect login - Apple ID does not have permission to access iTunes Connect.

Hi,
I have a company iPhone developer account which I registered two years ago. I have renewed it and it has not expired. I am the agent and I know the Apple ID and password as I login to the dev portal fine. I am now trying to publish my first app under this account but I get this message when trying to log into iTunesConnect Apple ID does not have permission to access iTunes Connect.
My account seems to be in some strange state as I invited another developer to my team (my hotmail email account) and then tried to make that user the Agent but that didn't even work, my new user shows up in the list of developers/team members, but I cannot select them in the dropdown to make them the agent, only my current agent name shows.
Is this a hand off to Apple support situation? I am up against a hard deadline and fear this is going to add significant delays waiting for Apple support to look into it (I've seen some other posts of people waiting 3 weeks with this problem and getting nowhere with support).
Thanks in advance for any help,
Paul

I only had the one login before. Yesterday to try to solve it I invited my hotmail account as a developer to the team. I then tried to make that developer the agent, but even though it shows in the team members, I cannot select the account to be the agent as its not in the dropdown list.
I am on OS X 10.7.3, using Safari. The dev account did not expire, I renewed it in April 2012 so there is plenty of time left on it. I am really stuck, this is so frustrating.
