Outlook password problem

I am accessing e-mail in Outlook, which is suddenly requiring a network password, but I am not on a network! This is preventing me from accessing and using e-mail and forcing me to log on via Yahoo, thus losing my address books etc. Help!

Try a reboot:
To reboot your iPad, hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously until the screen goes black and the Apple logo appears. If, during this process, a slider appears on the screen to power it off, ignore it and keep holding the buttons down.
Rebooting your iPad can solve a lot of problems. Once you do that, go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and make sure the correct, new password is entered in that account.

Plagued by Password Problems

The current problems I'm experiecing with my password started back in the summer last year (2014). What would happen is that, whilst on my PC, Outlook would, out of the blue, suddenly request that I enter my password - which it already had, of course. But when I did renter it, it still kept on requesting it and refused to send or receive any email. I then turned to my iPhone, and it too was no-longer able to send or receive email, claiming an invalid password.
I then went onto my BT home page and accessed my BT Yahoo email via the internet, which was still working. However, after a while I would even find myself blocked from BT Yahoo account - BT requesting that I reset my password. I would do that, and for a while, Outlook, iPhone and BT Internet all worked fine. A few weeks later however, we have a reapeat performance - Outlook stops working, iPhone stops working and I'm back having to use the BT Yahoo website. I reset my password again. This scenario has played out numerous time over the last 8 - 10 months.
I became so frustrated in Jamuary this year, that I contacted the BT email helpline and an engineer (who I have to say had very little patience with me, regarding the problems I was having as self-inflicted) eventually gave me a new password and reset it for me at their end, telling me this would cure all my failed password problems - and it did, for a while. The whole fiasco kicked off again several weeks later. Again another BT engineer reset my password at the beginning of April this year - it lasted a week before the dreaded Outlook dialog, "Enter Username and Password" appeared and my iPhone stopped receiving - again.
Recently passwords have been lasting for only a few days and it's not been unsually to have to reset my password several times in one day. It's becoming a nightmare. I need a password to last more than a few hours, days or even weeks. I need Outlook working. I need to be able to use my iPhone to send and receive email, not worrying about when the next "failed password" error message is going to appear - forcing me back onto the BT Yahoo website.
I've raised this issue via the BT helpline with two of their engineers now, and despite their best efforts and assurances, the problem is still present and as bad as ever. I can't carry on like this and it's affecting, not just my social life, but my working life too.
Does anyone have a longterm fix for this problem? And am I alone in this experience?

It is likely you are suffering from the problem of multiple device access to your email account. You need to ensure that if you are accessing your email by several devices and methods that they do not conflict.
I have sent you a private message (PM) that gives general longterm fix to the problem. Please feel free to reply via the PM method. I have found that this is the best mechanism to progress the issue.

I have a password problem. After importing data and settings from one MacBook Pro to a new one, I have to put my iCloud password in when re-starting, but the password from the old computer in when waking the computer from sleep.

I have a password problem. After importing data and settings from one MacBook Pro to a new one, I have to put my iCloud password in when re-starting the new computer, but the password from the old computer in when waking the computer from sleep. I want to use my iCloud password on both computers consistently. How can I fix this?

The only other place to change a password for the computer login is in Users & Groups preferences. But I don't really know enough here to fix your problem. You can try fixing the keychain:
iCloud- Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
Tutorial: Resolving Keychain Issues
If you can't access your keychain, or forget your password If you can't get into your keychain file because you've forgotten your password or the keychain file appears to be corrupt, there are a couple of options.
First, if you've forgotten your password, you can use the "Keychain First Aid" utility to make the keychain password the same as the login password. This can be accomplished via the following process:
1. Open Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
2. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Preferences"
3. Click the "First Aid" tab
4. Make sure the "Synchronize login keychain password" box is checked
5. Close the Preferences window
6. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Keychain First Aid"
7. Enter your username and password
8. Click the "Repair" button
The second option is to completely delete your keychain then recreate it. This routine is useful if your keychain appears to be corrupt or otherwise inaccessible. This can be accomplished as follows:
1. Launch Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
2. Click "Show Keychains" in the lower-left corner of the window.
3. Select the problematic keychain from the left-hand pane.
4. Navigate to the "File" menu and select "Delete Keychain '(name of keychain)'"
5. Check all options for deletion and press "OK"
6. Create a new keychain by going to the "File" menu, then "New" and selecting
"New Keychain"
7. You can now make this keychain your default if you desire by selecting it, then
going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make '(name of keychain)' Default"
Login as root and perform repair In some cases, problems with keychains can only be resolved when logged in as the root user.
First, you want to enable the root user:
1. OS X Mountain Lion: Enable and disable the root user
2. OS X Lion: Enable and disable the root user
3. Mac OS X 10.6: Enabling the root user
4. Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
After enabling the root user, and logging in under this account, again open Keychain Access. First attempt repairs using Keychain First Aid, and failing that, delete then recreate the keychain as described above while logged in as root.
Persistently asked for stored passwords If you are persistently asked for passwords in various applications that you have specified should be remembered in a keychain, your "login" keychain may not be active for one reason or another.
Navigate to ~/Library/Keychains/ (this is the Library folder inside your user's home folder). Find the file named "login.keychain" and double-click it.
Failing that, select the "login" keychain within the Keychain Access application and make sure it is the default keychain by going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make 'Login' Default"
Turn off Keychain synchronization in applications having problems If specific applications are experiencing issues when accessing password-protected material, the Keychain may be to blame.
The above comes from an article published on MacFixit.com.

WRT110 WIFI password problem

Hi Everyone,
I've got a very strange problem. First, I indicated WPA under Wireless Security section and typed in my passphrase. However when connecting to my wireless network name my passphrase never worked. Second, I completely disabled security and tried to simply connect without any passphrase, but I was still being asked for a passphrase nonetheless. I checked and double-checked and saved settings making sure security was disabled, but I was still being asked for a passphrase when choosing my wireless network!
I could probably restore my WRT110 to factory settings, however I don't want to loose other configurations like certain open ports and IP addresses I opened up for firewall.
Is there a way for me to resolve my WiFI password problem without restoring to factory default? I just need to figure out how to make the WiFi passpharse work. Here's what I have there:
Security Mode: WPA Personal
Encryption: TKIP
Passphrase: 0sunspot0
Key Renewal: 3600 seconds
However, when I pick my wireless network and try to connect to it by typing in 0sunspot0, I get authentication failure!
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Victor.

Is the router up and running and you would only want to add a device wirelessly? If so, you may access the setup page as sabretooth has said.

Sys password problem "INSUFFICIENT PRIVELEGES"

hi,
This is with refernece to my earlier post, i can now login as a DBA thry OS authentication.
Re: sys password problem
but now i try to vreate a new password file and it successfully created using orapwd....
but when i try to login as a sys user thru oracle authentication i couldn't because i am getting an error
"INSUFFICIENT PRIVELEGES"
and another thing i would like to know do i have to shutdown the database or not for the same.

Please review the document link sent earlier
Setting REMOTE_LOGIN_ PASSWORDFILE
In addition to creating the password file, you must also set the initialization parameter REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to the appropriate value. The values recognized are:
NONE: Setting this parameter to NONE causes Oracle Database to behave as if the password file does not exist. That is, no privileged connections are allowed over nonsecure connections.
EXCLUSIVE: (The default) An EXCLUSIVE password file can be used with only one instance of one database. Only an EXCLUSIVE file can be modified. Using an EXCLUSIVE password file enables you to add, modify, and delete users. It also enables you to change the SYS password with the ALTER USER command.
SHARED: A SHARED password file can be used by multiple databases running on the same server, or multiple instances of a Real Application Clusters (RAC) database. A SHARED password file cannot be modified. This means that you cannot add users to a SHARED password file. Any attempt to do so or to change the password of SYS or other users with the SYSDBA or SYSOPER privileges generates an error. All users needing SYSDBA or SYSOPER system privileges must be added to the password file when REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE is set to EXCLUSIVE. After all users are added, you can change REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to SHARED, and then share the file.
This option is useful if you are administering multiple databases or a RAC database.
If REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE is set to EXCLUSIVE or SHARED and the password file is missing, this is equivalent to setting REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to NONE.

Password Problem for some applications:

Password Problem for some applications: I'm unable to download Adobe Reader, Microsoft updates. I have no password set to start the computer, applications such as Pages, Numbers, Keynote require no password for updates.
When I try to update Microsoft or Adobe Reader, first I try with no password, I get a hint and I know exactly what it means, but still unable to download. I don't know enough about passwords as to why some I can download and others I can't. So I don't know what I should read. I'm the only user of this computer and prefer not to have to deal with passwords. I'm using a MacBook Pro, Mac OS 10.9.3

Oh what a tangled web we weave. I read up on keychain and I don't understand what I'm reading. Right now I cannot download my email on my computer, I can access it through the cloud. I'm sure it will be the same for the other iCloud feathers. When I go to preferences and select iCloud when ever I try to sign in I get some dialog box it shows up "A keychain cannot be found to store 1076701306. It doesn't matter whether I reset it or cancel it out iCloud preferences remains grayed out.
In keychain access on the left side under keychains and Read's local item, systems, and systems roots.
When I select local items nothing shows up to the right under the name column even when down under all items is selected nothing shows up. And nothing shows up to the right when under categories I selected the other options password etc. On the other hand when I select under keychains systems, systems roots I do get items to show up on the right side under names under all items, passwords, etc. Where do I start?

Outlook 2011 problem syncing contacts with address book

I am aware that Lion has broken the sync ability of Outlook 2011 with Address Book. Hopefullly this will be fixed at some point.
So my problem is that I have decided to use a workaround to get my Address Book contents into Outlook 2011. I am not concerned with further syncing at this point. I just want to get my addresses into Outlook and hope a better fix is offered at some point.
About the only way I could figure out how to do this was to export my Address Book as vCard. I then imported the vCard file into Gmail and then exported that as a CSV file. It contained 550 addresses. I opened it in Excel and it contained 550 rows. Great so far.
I then Imported into Outlook 2011 and chose import a text file. When the mapping window opened, it showed over 890 files instead of 550 and the fields were not mapped correctly. I could not complete the import because it was so screwed up.
So I'm back to square one and very frustrated. There must be others who have the same issue and maybe have figured out a way to do this. Please help.

New Outlook sync problem after update!!!

I had the 'original' Outlook sync problem, which went away after the iTunes update to 7.3.1, but now, after the iPhone update last night, I have an entirely NEW Outlook sync problem!!
When I sync the iPhone, right when it gets to the 'syncing contacts' part (that you see in the top box/window in iTunes) I get an error message that I haven't seen before. It says "AppleMobileDeviceHelper has encountered a problem and needs to close..." and it gives me the option to send an error report. I dismiss the error box, and the sync process hangs, and iTunes becomes unresponsive.
If I open Outlook, the two Apple sync oblects are still enabled, and get no error message. If I re-open iTunes and try to sync again, it only syncs iTunes content, and never even tries to sync my contacts or calendar.
Anyone having anything similar since last night? The only thing different is the iPhone firmware update.

I just cancelled the sync by using the slider. I didn't realize I could do that. The phone seems fine. I may try it again and see what happens.

Windows 7 x64, Outlook 2010 and iCloud configuration - error "Outlook configuration problem"

I'm running Windows 7 x64
I had iCloud 1.x working with Outlook 2007 x32. A few months back I upgraded to Office 2010 x64, which (of course) broke the iCloud integration. I've waited for the "fix", and have now tried to get it working again with iCloud 2.11. I've tried repairing, I've uninstalled/reinstalled iCloud, I've set different default profiles, I've changed mail accounts...nada.
No matter what I do, when I get to the point of opening up the iCloud configuration and try to set up Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. I immediately get the following error:
"Outlook configuration problem.
Setup can't continue because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again."
Any suggestions?

Hi,
Regarding the issue here, Please first take an attempt to repair your Outlook personal folder file (.pst) :

Outgoing Mail & Password Problems-Solution

Hi All,
After upgrading to Snow Leopard I had a couple of issues.
1) Couldn't send mail
2) Passwords in Mail were not getting saved
To resolve the outgoing mail problem see this article
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2998
Basically edit your outgoing server and change the outgoing port to custom and put in you appropriate port number. I use Cox without SSL so I used 25
For the password problem go to your Home folder, go into Library and move the folder called "Keychain to the trash then restart. After restarting open Mail go into Preferences and add your password back to your account. It should now retain the password. This will also help with other apps like Safari that use Keychain to store passwords.
Also I was able to copy a keychain from another computer to get back all of the passwords I already had. After the upgrade my keychain was mostly empty.
Good Luck,
Mark

Had been trying that, to no avail. Found that I had to entirely delete the account and set up entirely new account with new password which worked.
Thx

Email password problem!!

I've had this macbook for about 1-1/2 years and for the first year or so had no email-related problems. However, for the past 6 months or so, I have password problems relating to one of my email accounts. Several times per day (even several times per minute), I will get a message on the screen something like this: The incoming mail server incoming.verizon.net has rejected the password for the account (my personal email account). Please re-enter the correct password. There is a little checkbox "remember this password in my keychain". Doesn't matter whether I check this box or not, five minutes later the message is there again.
I have gone to Preferences/Accounts, deleted and re-entered the password, but it has no effect. I have three other email accounts on this macbook that are unaffected.
Can anyone help? I'm getting reeeaaaalllly frustrated.

Hi there!
OK--some confusion here. There are two types of accounts to discuss -- your BIS account and your email accounts.
BIS is Blackberry Internet Service, the service, hosted by your carrier, that provides the conduit between your BB and your internet facing email services (e.g., Yahoo, Gmail, etc.). BIS has credentials for accessing it.
Your email accounts likewise have their own credentials. These credentials are stored within BIS so that it can, without your intervention, check your email services and see if there's anything to deliver to your BB...and do so if there is.
The screen you described sounds like your BIS credentials screen -- those credentials are whatever they are. And probably not the same as your email account credentials. You need to know what your BIS credentials are..they are yours. If you don't know them, then you need to contact your carrier for assistance as they manage your BIS account.
Good luck and let us know!
