  • 1st Generation iphone, 2.1 iPhone OS and password incorrect exchange prompt

    I have a 1st generation (non 3G) phone and I upgraded to 2.1 (5F136) recently. Dont exactly remember when I upgraded the OS. All of a sudden, I am getting password incorrect exchange prompts. What the **** is happening? The password is correct and I enter it and can send/get email. But I have to do this like 10 times in a day. Unbelievable!
    Where is this amnesia coming out of? Is this a known bug? Any known fixes? Have rebooted enough number of times. This is happening when I am on my wi-fi as well continuously. My gmail account is just fine. Whats going on Apple?

    I have seen this with misconfigured Exchange/IIS ActiveSync setups on the server side. Have you checked with your exchange peeps to see if they changed anything?

  • Like many others I cannot access emails because it asks me for a password to exchange account that I didn't even know I had therefore no password! Help please.

    Are you trying to send an email from "[email protected]" this address??

  • Password for Exchange account - HELP!

    Hi iPhone friends, 
    I still have my 3GS phone.  It now says "Password Incorrect  Enter the password for the Exchange account"   Now I can't get gmail/email with my iPhone.

  • How to find password for "exchange account"?

    my ipad 2 keeps asking me for my exchange account "exchange" passwork?  I have no idea what this is or where to find it?

    What email service, if any do you use? Typically in an enterprise environment, Exchange would be the mail system, and your mail account would have a password associated with it. 

  • Mail asks for password until exchange account is locked

    I have a customer who uses Exchange, latest version.
    They have 40 users still on 10.6.8, no problems with Mail or iCal.
    When upgrading the computers to 10.9.3 we always get problems with mail.
    It seems the Mail account is lost in the upgrade process. Sometimes even the local mail folders are lost and sometimes not.
    On all of the upgraded computers the Mail account information is lost.
    After setting the account up again, Mail always crashes first time.
    Second launch causes the Setup guide to start again requiring the setup of the Mail account a second time.
    Now the mail server won't accept the supplied password. It keeps asking until it is locked on the Active Directory. Unlocking and typing it two times or more may solve it, maybe another round of unlocking the account again.
    If have seen this on 10 computers now.

    Hi Ernie,
    Normally my MacBook is off when I am on the road but I was not sure this time as I was testing the account settings on my new iPad.
    So I switched off my Mac, started up my work PC and did send an email from my work account.
    Then I did read the email from the iPad.
    To make sure not to have issues with normal server delays I waited 15 minutes (would be normal also if I read my mail with iPhone/iPad on the road) to restart my Mac and open Mail:
    It connected and downloaded the message without any questions for password.
    So your suggestion may be right and in that case it is no issue to me.
    I will set your answer to Helpful and keep the post open for some time to see if this really is solving my issue.
    Thanks,
    Menno

  • Exchange account password

    hy.i have a problem.i forgot password at exchange account.how can i change it?

    If referring to you email account password, it is typically the same set of credentials you use to login to Active Directory.  You would change your AD account password.  Is this what you are talking about?

  • What is an exchange account

    What is an exchange acount, my new Ipad is asking for an Exchange account Pasword.

    Mr. Sampson, 
    I don't think you understand the problem, so I will explain more clearly using way to much of my actual work time. 
    I have no problem with my employer or microsoft requiring a poaasword or with my employer requiring me to change that e-mail password.  The problem occurs when the e-mail feature controls the entire iPad, and locks you out from all other functions unless you know the new password.  In the past, when I had to change the password, the only effect was that my e-mail would not download and I could not send from the iPad, but I could use the other apps.
    Here is a scenario...least you think this is an imaginary problem. Say, for example, I have to change my password at work so I do, but my husband is using my iPad to score a baseball game for our son on GameChanger.  He gets the pop-up which says incorrect password for Exchange account.  He presses the "Cacncel" button, which should just allow him to use the iPad, but not update the e-mail password.  It does not.  It just keeps popping up over and over and OVER and he cannot use the iPad at all.
    Although I did eventually figure out what the problem was after searching the internet for fixes.  Two things need to happen.
    1.  The pop-up needs to be clearer...ie not targeted to computer programers or tech people who think it should be clear to everyone what an exchange account is. (Please refer to your respose which uses terms like "a version of an IMAP account...that's not helpful).  For example, the pop-up could say: "Did you change you outlook (or Gmail or whatever) password.  Please enter the correct password.
    2.  The Cancel button in this pop-up should actually work...to clarify: you should have the option of ignoring the prompt to update your e-mail password, but still be allowed to use other features on you iPad.  Right now, if you select "Cancel" the same pop-up just keeps coming.  That sounds like a pretty bad glitch to me.
    I am not sure if you work for Apple, but hopefully this clarification of the problem will prompt Apple to DO SOMETHING TO FIX THIS APPLE problem.

    Hello
    Check the following:
    Make sure your account is not a member of an AD protected group - for example Domain Admin, Enterprise Admin etc.
    Check if security inheritence is disabled on the user object. If it is, turn it back on. This in done through the security tab on the user object -> Advanced and the checkbox in the lower left corner "Allow inheritable permissions....." - this should be enabled.
    Presto!
    Kind regards
