My email keeps rejecting my password. How do I reset it?

My email keeps asking for my password and rejects it each time. I know it is case sensitive. I was fairly sure I have the correct password. Can I reset it and if so how? I can't receive email now. I have a work e mail that I do receive. [email protected] Thanks

Hello,
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Window Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.

If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

My Mobile Me email keeps rejecting my password on all devices

This morning, my me.com email will not allow me to log in on either my desktop, iPad, or iPhone. I am told that the password for my user name has been rejected by the IMAP server. Any one else having this issue, or know a fix?

Maybe some help here
Check the apple id link about Managing Apple ID resetting your password.

HT204187 Email account does not work on the Mac but works on my iPad and iPhone. The account information was added on the Mac. I keeps rejecting my password.

I have seral email accounts on my Mac. One does not work on the Mac but works on my iPad and iPhone. The account information was added on the Mac. I keeps rejecting my password.

You don't input the information in manually for iCloud mail. It is automatically set up for you when you sign into iCloud via System Preferences and choose the Mail checkbox. Sign out of iCloud or deselect Mail in iCloud preferences. Open Mail's preferences and choose accounts tab. If iCloud account still exists in the list, delete it. Sign back into iCloud or check the box for mail. The account will be auto created for you.

Mail keeps rejecting my password.

I know that this has been asked like every single day. But i've spent all day trying to find a solution and can not find a single one.
For some stupid reason Mail on my mac keeps rejecting my password. Like to the point where i've deleted the account and it won't even let me connect enough to readd it. I've already wiped out my mac, reinstalled the software, ran disk utilitie, repaired persmissions, reparied disk, restarted in boot, ran mail doctor.. you name it. Nothing is working. I've had my mac for a little over 2 years, and my iphone 4 the almost the same amount. I have never had a problem until recently. I have a yahoo (ymail) account on both and just started experiencing problems on both of them. (Iphone4, I am not getting the emails pushed through.. even i turn off my phone/turn it back on i get like 20). I've even changed my password through the internet browser and i'll think its working until i Quit Mail and reopen and am asked for my password AGAIN! Please help!!
I am using Mac OS X 10.6.8, Snow Leopard.
Ps: I've already deleted the keychains and all of that, as i said i've completely wiped out the harddrive and am still having issues with it.

I saw someone on here said to log in to email via the yahoo.com website. So I just logged in with the email address that kept rejecting the password on mac mail, even tho it is an att email address. Now mac mail has stopped rejecting my password. Why is this? I don't know what IMAP is but I am curious about this connection.

My old email account was disabled and I can't remember my password - how can I reset my password or move $ to a new itunes/email account? It seems I must have mis-typed my information because I can't answer the security questions correctly...

I keep trying to access my mail but MAIL keeps rejecting my password. I am an AOL user. Please advise?

I keep trying to access my mail via the MAIL icon on my MacbookPro but it keeps rejecting my password. It worked find an hour ago but all of a sudden it won't work. I tried deleting the acct and re-adding it but still the same problem. The odd thing is I can send no problem.
I am an AOL user and am entering it correctly but it keeps rejecting I can access my acct via aol no problem
Okay now it's effecting my Iphone and Ipad accts.
Please advise?

So far as I can tell this is a server overload problem and Apple is working to fix things. I have had the same thing all morning and just now it cleared up, though not with AOL, but my iCloud mail. I was, of course, typing in the correct password, so the error message one keeps getting is very misleading, as the rejection has nothing to do with the PW. I think if we are all patient things will straighten out through the day. My mail is okay as of noon, crossing my fingers, but at least it is nothing I did wrong.

You keep rejecting my password, sorry i give up if I cannot download

I have spent over an hour and you keep rejecting my password. I give up, I have spent too much time although I want to download, I dont need the frustration.

There should not be any requirement for a password for downloading a trial version of an application. If you provide details of your experience it might be possible to indicate a solution. One that comes to mind is to use a different browser if the one you are using is presenting a requirement for a password... although that sounds like a Mac issue, not an Adobe issue.

Can anyone help

Some servers have case sensitive passwords, so that may be one issue. Is your email MS Exchange, Gmail, Yahoo or ????

Well, it is part of the Mac. So you were shortchanged.
Call AppleCare and ask them to send you a replacement set. They will ask for the serial number and model number to sure they are give you the correct set. They will charge you a nomibnal fee for shipping and handling.
