My email keeps saying the username or password is incorrect

My iphone keeps saying the username or password for "Gmail" is incorrect for my email. I tried changing it and it didn't work. What do I do?

Enter the correct user name and password.

  • Setting up an email account - it keeps saying the username or password are incorrect and they aren't......

    I am trying to set up my new Google mail email address on my iPhone 3GS but it keeps throwing up a message saying that the username or password are incorrect. I have checked and they are definitely right, why is it telling me this?!

    Check capitalization. The password is certainly case-senstive, and your username/email address might be as well. In the case of the password, you must get it exactly right. In the case of the username/email address, you can usually enter it as all lower case. Also, try your username with the @gmail.com suffix; your username might not be accepted without it.

  • My 3GS will not send e-mails from yahoo. Keeps saying the username or password is invalid. How can I fix this?

    Any idea how I get fix my iphone so it will send e-mails from yahoo? It keeps saying username or password invalid. I can receive e-mails without any problem. I have tried deleting the account and reinstalling it, chek the username and password and they are correct. Went under outgoing server but it is grayed out and won't allow me to edit and add the optional username or password or anything in that section. Please help.

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • IPad keeps saying invalid username or password when I try to open email

    My iPad keeps saying invalid username or password when I try to open email

    Are the email account's settings correct in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars ? And did you set up the account manually on the iPad or did you sync the account's details to the iPad via the Info tab when connected to your computer's iTunes ?

  • "cannot get mail" The username or password is incorrect?

    "cannot get mail" the username or password is incorrect?

    I got it going again... What I did was recreate my iCloud "[email protected]" email address through the "advanced" method on the ipad.
    So, it was  Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > iCloud > Then went manual from there on out. (Didn't use the suggested email address and created my own.)
    I created a NEW me.com email address. Nobody had my old one, so it's just as well... This may not work for some people...
    ..and thanks for your reply Souad H...
    All the best!!

  • HT5538 Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password

    Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password, the problem happens also with iMessage . Please help

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • HT201269 I am trying to restore an old back up to a new phone but it will not allow because it says the "old iphone" password is incorrect but the password I am using is the only password I have?? Help?  What does this mean?

    I am trying to restore an old iphone to a new iphone but it will not allow becaue it says the "old iphone" password is incorrect but the passwork I am using works for my ITunes account and is the only password I have..?? Please help!!  Thank you.

    When using the iPhone with the Windows OS, you need to have the Apple Mobile Device Service running. It should start automatically when you start the computer, but sometimes things happen. Use this support document to try and restart the service. See if that helps.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
