My iCloud on my mac is not recognizing my password

Starting a few days ago my mac is having issues with my iCloud email address. It keep asking me for my password and when I enter it, seems that it is not be ble to sync with my account and it takes the account offline. Then I go to "icloud.com" to verify that I amtering the correct password and it does go but now it is telling me that is not able to get my email data for some reason. What is going on?

My mother has the same issue with her iCloud account.  Started last night.  Changed password.  Nothing works on any device or Mac.  I can log into iCloud and get everything except Mail.  Can't figure it out.

  • My MAC is not recognizing my Time Capsule.

    My MAC is not recognizing my Time Capsule.  It's been 12 days since an automatic backup and it seems to be making more noise and vibration than normal.  Also seems warmer than normal.  When trying to select the Time Capsule disk, I get an error message that says, "There was a problem connecting to the server "Powells Time Capsule".   Don't know why but the Apple Support website doesn't recognize the serial number.  The unit is approximately 5 years old.

    The serial number is really not important at this point, since the Time Capsule is at least 2 years past the warranty coverage period, and this would be assuming that you have AppleCare in effect on one of your Macs. If you did not have AppleCare, then the Time Capsule is probably 4 years or more past the warranty coverage period.
    The Time Capsule is basically designed for about 3-4 years of use, so it is long past the time when you should replace the Time Capsule.  Apple will not offer repairs on the device, even if you are willing to pay them. Even if you might be able find repair parts, the cost of repairs for a replacement power supply and new hard drive would likely run more than the cost of new Time Capsule with a brand new warranty.

    When you have uninstalled it, repair permissions and restart your Mac.
    You don't need anti-virus on a Mac:
    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac will NOT be infected by a virus, it may have other security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.
    You may find this User Tip on Viruses, Trojan Detection and Removal, as well as general Internet Security and Privacy, useful: The User Tip seeks to offer guidance on the main security threats and how to avoid them.

  • HT1338 i cloud not recognizing new password.

    I just updated to Lion OS x 10.8.2. I reset my Apple ID password. iTunes recognizes it but iCloud does not. I have retried. No success.

    Unfortunately it is not recognizing the password still. It recognizes the copy + pasted password on yahoo.com, but when I use the copy + pasted password with apple mail (even after deleting it) it doesn't recognize it.
    It was giving me a message that it couldn't connect when I put in the password. However I figured it out. What I had to do was copy the password from what I had, put it into the login area for yahoo.com, have firefox remember the password, then copy that password from firefox's preferences and paste that into the apple password part.
    Weird thing is though is when I looked at the two (the one I had kept typed and the copied one from the saved yahoo) they were exactly the same, so I don't know why it wasn't recognizing it.
    Thank you for replying to my question though!

  • Apple not recognizing known password.  Iforgot does not send email verification.  Help please.

    Apple not recognizing known password.  Iforgot does not send email verification.  Help please.
    Don't know any other way to put it.  I typed in the correct password.  Now the account is locked.  Iforgot does not send an email verification.  The email is not in the junk mail or anywhere else.  It is typed correctly.  This is frustrating.  I was just trying to update the Ipad Mini.  I wanted to change the ownership to my husband and noticed that my daughter attached a new Icloud account.  I was just trying to verify her account.  I have the correct password.  Now the account is locked out.

    I figured it out.  It's a little confusing.  I was trying to add a new email address for iCloud and I was supposed to type in the main iCloud user ID and password.  The wording is not helpful because it displays the name of the new email address.

  • Pages for iPad is not recognizing the password I assigned to a document.  I included a hint, and I know I am entering the password that goes with the hint.  Is there anything I can do to access my doc?

    Pages for iPad is not recognizing the password I assigned to a document.  I included a hint, and I know I am entering the password associated with the hint.  Is there anything I can do to access my document?  i quite the Pages app and restarted it.  Now I guess I'll reset the iPad and see if that helps.   Thanks!

    Interesting that one does not need the password to delete using Finder.
    The Pages password protects the contents of the document.  If there were a Finder password, it would protect what you might think of as the "file wrapper" ... the stuff around the file content.
    Glad it's not vital.  I have to say I only pasword protect those Pages documents that are, in fact, vital.
    Best of luck.

  • Mail not recognizing new password

    All right so I recently had to change the password on one of my Yahoo.com mail accounts because I could not remember the last one. I have this one linked up the mail application on my computer, however it is not recognizing the new password (yes, I'm typing it in correctly, in fact I'm just copy + pasting it). I also checked keychain and it didn't find any problems  apparently when I ran first aid.
    How do I get my computer to recognize my new password? This is ridiculous.

    Unfortunately it is not recognizing the password still. It recognizes the copy + pasted password on yahoo.com, but when I use the copy + pasted password with apple mail (even after deleting it) it doesn't recognize it.

  • Itunes is not recognizing my password

    I'm trying to purchase a song and suddeny iTunes is not recognizing my password. I log in to Manage my AppleID and that seems to recognize it just fine;  for some reason iTunes is just not accepting it. I'm absolutely typing it in correctly, and it's the same password I've had for ages so it can't be wrong.
    I do not think reseting the password is, or should be, my only option: I have too many passwords to keep track of as is.

    Sorry is should have probably mentioned this problem is on my computor. I am using itunes 11 and win 8( never had a problem till now ) . My password seams to work fine on the appstore on my phone ( just checked )
    When I try to use my password in itunes on my pc it wont let me log in, and get a unknown error message along with have you forgoten your password... which I havent.
    Thanks for the sugestions

  • My appleid is not recognizing my password! I've reset it several times already!

    This is very frustrating! I have set up my apple account, etc and everytime I try to sign in with my appleid, it's not recognizing my password! I've already reset my password several times to accommodate the stupid error! Someone please help!!

    If your son continues to have admin access, it means that he has unrestricted access to the password after you change it.
    Another accessible admin account was mentioned.
    He has put his user id in the /etc/sudoers file with root access.
    You keep the password in a text file in your account. He has changed the access permissions on that file, so he can read this from his account. Similarly, you keep the password someplace that is no longer secret.
    He or a sibling has distracted you with conversation while watching your admin keystrokes.
    His own keystroke logger tracking what you type, or freely downloadable password cracking software.
    You choose passwords that are simple for you and may be readily guessable family, pet, or household object names, birthdates, etc. Choose something that is off his guess radar. A name of something unique before he was born.
    You hope he hasn't shared the admin password with someone outside the home.
    Some ideas for you. Discipline isn't taking away the computer, it is temporarily taking away other privileges perceived as more valuable, if the password intrusions do not stop.

    try resetting your phone by turning it off and back on again. The servers may still be having a hard time keeping up, so you may just need to wait a little while and try again.
