I have never had to enter a password to access mail. However, recently, I keep being asked for password on my ****** address. Only on my macbook. (which, btw, has a version number the drop down doesn't offer as a choice. I had to putt 9.4)

When I look up the account the "password" is a long string of gobbledygook. Something I would never do.
But when I attempt to use that pw I still can't get in.
I have no trouble accessing that email account on my mac mini. Just on the macbook.

Maiko,
I'm confess I'm still trying to get a handle on your problem. You do a fantastic job of describing it ... but I'm just trying to picture it accurately in my head.
I think, were I in your shoes, I'd begin by looking at what the debug page has to say for the specific destination in which you're interested in fixing. In other words, I'm not clear on where, exactly, this destination points ...
Destination illinois.edu.1945806043
Is that your site, or the division within your site that you want to fix? "Normally", you do not need to specify a site handle to get to your site within your transfer CGI ... if you say "uillinois.edu", it's enough to transfer your users to iTunes U ... but every site still has a handle, and you could, if you wanted to, actually specify it in your transfer CGI. For example, this:
Destination uic.edu.1139051993
is for my entire site ... it's my site handle. Whereas this:
Destination uic.edu.1991288441
is for a division within my site ... but it's impossible to tell the difference between "site" and "division" from just the handle (I mean, if I didn't say "this is a site" and "this is a division", there'd be no way for you to know). So when I look at your creds and permissions on your debug page, I can't quite tell if they give you download access for your site, or for the specific division you want to fix. If you could open the debug page with your division as destination (or confirm that that's what we're looking at), it'd rule out some things.

System is asking for password while executing t.code RSUDO

Hi
While executing t.code RSUDO ( Execute as user with restricted authorizations) on behalf of other user, system is asking for password.
Can you tell the reason for it?
System is BW 731.
Thanks
Saurabh

Hi
I had the same problem.
What solved it for me was to add authorizations in PFCG for one of my roles
The autorisation is : "Execution of transaction RSUDO without password"
Heres what I added in PFCG:
Authorization obj: R_SEC
RSECADMOBJ:   RSUDO
RSECADMVAL:   *
ACTVT:                16
Hope it will solved your problem.

HT1695 Why my iphone is not asking for password while connecting wifi connection?

while connecting wifi connection iphone did not ask for password.therefore did not connect.

maybe, your iphone already have the password of your wifi

My MacBook Pro is now asking for a login. When I enter my passcode, it goes to a blue screen and back to the login screen. I saw several older posts, but nothing recently. I am running Snow Leopard.

My MacBook is now asking for a password. When I login, it loops to a blue screen, and back to the login. Incorrect logins create a shaking of the login screen. I tried restarting with the shift key depressed, with no luck.

I performed a hard shutdown, and upon start I could access my system without logging on. I'm not sure what caused the issue, but I have not booted up in almost a week.

Macbook Pro 2011 - Freeze/Ask for Restart

I just purchased the new Macbook Pro 15 inch from the apple store. Seriously a beast compared to my Late 2006 Macbook. Surprised at how much of a difference it truly makes. I sold my old Macbook to help pay for the MBP and haven't looked back. Now i'll stop gushing.
The one and only issue i have with the Macbook Pro is that twice it has frozen, and greyed out the desktop and popped a message up asking me to RESTART the MBP in about 3-4 different languages. I was wondering why I might be having this issue? I mean this is about a week old and this message is cropping up. Just wondering if anyone has encountered this and their solution.
My only solution which i haven't tried yet would be a boot from CD and disk utility repair of the HD, but is that necessary?

Ho Lee,
Thank you for your quick response, I came across that as well when I was searching for answers as well. I'm not new to troubleshooting macs but just was wondering if anyone else was encountering the issue as well.
But that was a good reminder to dig deeper into which programs are active when the Kernal panic occurs and make sure they are updated to the newest realease.

My Macbook Pro keeps shutting down for no reason

I have this Macbook Pro 15' , 4gb ram, 500gb HD, and it was pretty slow, so i took it to an apple shop where they've format and installed Mountain Lion 10.8.3, but now after a week it keeps shuting down for no reason, it happens when im using for example, safari and Word or 2 softwares at the same time, any tips?
They've checked the Hard disk at the shop and everything was all right.

(passwordless ssh) I keep getting asked for password

I've been trying to set up passwordless ssh to my webhost, but it keeps asking for my user password (please note "password" is to be distinguished from "passphrase").
I've set up keychain and x11-askpass, and it asks me for my passphrase when I log in after a fresh boot, so no problems there.
Here is some verbose output (sanitized):

It looks like it's sending the key just fine, but the server is asking for the next authentication method. It could be possible that the server doesn't support key-based connections, or that your public key on the server is invalid.

Keep being asked for password: Mail Help unhelpful

Last week I had to trash my keychains/passwords on the recommendation of Skype help. It solved my immediate problem but now I get asked for a password every time I launch Mail.
I've tried Mail help and got the following advice:
"To change the keychain lock settings:
Open Keychain Access, located in Applications/Utilities (or click the link provided on this page).
Select your login keychain, choose Edit > "Change Settings for Keychain 'login'."
To reduce the number of requests for your keychain password, deselect the option for the number of minutes of inactivity before the keychain is locked, or increase the number of minutes. You can also deselect "Lock when sleeping" option."
Trouble is, I see nothing that resembles a "login keychain".
Is the above the advice I need. If yes, what/where is my login keychain; if no, what now?

Thanks for the feedback. This means the login keychain itself was "there", just inaccessible for some reason. The actual keychains are stored in one of the following locations, depending on their applicability:
/System/Library/Keychains/
/Library/Keychains/
~/Library/Keychains/
login, in particular, being different for each user, is stored in ~/Library/Keychains/.
On my system, the System keychain is stored in /Library/Keychains/. Do you see a System keychain in more than one of the aforementioned locations? Maybe that's the reason you see more than one instance of it in Keychain Access.
I'm wondering now if the problem was just that there was something wrong with the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.keychainaccess.plist preferences file. Guess we'll never know what happened here.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

Mail keeps on asking for password

Several times a day, mail asks for my passwords - I type them in and check the "remember" box but it doesn't help.
Is there anything I can do? This happened before the Leopard upgrade.
Walt

Have you deleted OS 9 to free up space? You might have accidentally deleted Keychain in the process if you did. I don't know if its possible, but you might have. Have you been having problems like this in the past?
