Password Issues with Charter Mail Account

Hi,
I am setting up my new iPad Wi-Fi 4G with my email accounts for Charter. With this I have run into the following issue:
-email accounts with only alpha or only numeric passwords work fine.
-email accounts with a alpha/numeric passwords will not work. A user name or password incorrect error is received.
All email accounts are valid and passwords validated. The support people at Charter have also confirmed this. Additionally, I have tried cutting and pasting account information in to make sure no typing errors occurred.
The support people at apple have had me reset the iPad and then totally reloaded the software, of which neither resolved the issue.
At this point an Apple senior advisor was contacted and I was told to contact Charter and see if they could change my passwords to all alpha or all numeric characters. This was the only action apple support could give. This however cannot be done due to new password guidelines at Charter.
Has anyone else found this issue and resolved it?
Regards,
SSS

I am not experiencing this problem on iPad2 .. my charter password has alpha & numeric characters in it.  HOWEVER, I did find that the charter username for HBOGo was my charter email & email password and NOT the user name & password I set up when I was setting up HBOGo the first time.  Maybe something like this is the problem, and not the password structure.

  • Password issues with Mac Mail-help!

    I created a new email account through my internet provider (Comcast) and I can no longer access my email although it is showing up on webmail. The comcast person said I would probably have to change my password. I tried doing this on Mac Mail but there doesn't appear to be the usual place to type in new password and then confirm. I am not sure what password they are asking for. The mail account was set up so long ago that I have never used any password when checking my account. I also notice if I delete the password, the password dots are back when I open preferences up again. I don't understand this and Comcast will not help with Mac Mail questions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You said you never used a password when checking you mail. You must have a password on the account, I don't see how you couldn't.
    When you go to www.comcast.net and go to the webmail client, you must enter your username and password in order to get your messages. It's this username & password that Apple Mail requires in order to access your email.
    If you want/need to change your password, you can do this at www.comcast.net from within the webmail client. When you are at your inbox on the webclient, on the left side of the screen there is a link for "Preferences". Clicking that will take you to another page and one of the options is "Change Your Password". That's where you would go to change your password for that specific email account.
    Good luck,
    Bronson

  • Issue with Apple mail account? Please can someone help!

    I was hoping I could contact an Apple support adviser, but it lead me to this forum - hoping someone can help.
    My query is that my colleague does not receive any of my emails when I use my MAC me account. She is able to send them to me, however, when I reply they simply go somewhere but not back to her! They are not in her spam either, or stuck in my Outbox.  It is baffling me.  When I send emails to her now, I have to resort to using my Gmail account, which is proving more reliable I am tempting to get rid of this one!
    Can anyone recommend where I go for help for this query or if you are able to assist that would be great.  H

    Hi Tony - thanks for the swift reply - I have tried this and it works fine. Not sure if this is at her end and the Onedrive email accounts. However she does receive messages from my Gmail just not from the ME account.  I can see messages have gone from my Sent Items, with no bounce back! Ho hum if all else fails I shall stick to Gmail when I email her.

  • I run a mac air on a single user account but multiple people using it, which is ok for the situation. All have their accounts in the apple mail app. what is missing for me is a separate password to access the mail account. otherwise anyone can see anyones

    Any clue, how i can add a mail account to apple mail app, but with separate password / pin to open it.
    Years ago there was a program called mail switcher which added this functionality, but thats gone.
    cheers

    They would have to be logged in as separate users in order not to see your account in Mail. Whatever accounts put in Mail under your account will show up. All mail accounts usually have there own user and password. The only thing you can do is to remove the password from Keychain and take the account offline so you don't keep getting prompts for passwords each time it checks for mail.
    Not a great solution.
    Best way is to give the other user their own user account with their own mail and enable fast user swithcing to log between the different users if all access the computer frequently.

  • OS X 10.10.1 Apple Mail reliability issue with Virgin Mail Servers

    Apple Mail(8.1) reliability issue with Virgin Mail Servers on my iMac and Laptop Pro with the new Yosemite update!  Spent 1.5hrs with the virgin team (thought we solved it by changing from Auto to one minute update) only to find on return I still have an issue with Mail!  On the iMac the account opens and I see all the mail arriving. When I switch over and the back, days of recent mail have disappeared?
    If I search for one I saw, It is found?
    On the Laptop Pro, its similar, but it also has a problem remembering the outgoing port no matter how often I save it keeps going back to port 143 and this makes the send fail each time?
    Will I have to move to another mail client or is their a fix coming?

    The last version of Mail for Tiger is v2.1.3 & there won't be any updates/upgrades.
    You might try the freeware mail app Thunderbird. http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/ It's newer than Mail for Tiger.
    How Thunderbird 3 works on Mac OS X: Better than Apple Mail?

  • Having issues with Yahoo mail on ios4 on a 3GS

    Is anyone else experiencing issues with Yahoo mail on their 3GS after the upgrade to ios4?? Keep getting an imap server error, but gmail works fine.

    Same problem. I have two Yahoo! Mail accounts. One stopped sending mail, while the other was fine. (Both could receive, however.) To solve that, I deleted the problematic account from the phone and reinstalled it. It worked... until I synced by iPhone with iTunes. Now both Yahoo! Mail accounts will not work, and deleting them and reinstalling them does nothing.
    Apple had better fix this. (Or I'll whine louder.)

  • Anyone besides me get an annoying popup that cannot be deleted/closed reading:  FaceTime Password Please enter your password for "my e-mail account name" Never used FaceTime.

    Dear Community,
    Anyone besides me get an annoying popup that cannot be deleted/closed reading:
    FaceTime Password
    Please enter your password for "my e-mail account name"
    It happened to me today for the first time since upgrading to Mavericks 10.9.3, no "stop lights" in the title bar of the popup, in fact nothing at all.
     I've never established a FaceTime account. So I tried to delete FaceTime from the Applications folder on the "system" disk thinking this may eliminate the popup. Mavericks informed me "Cannot delete FaceTime as it is used by the operating system. 
    Is this a MAC virus? Or is this an example user community alpha/beta testing that Apple just announced?
    TIA,
    GonzoBernelli

    That being the case, why then did the FaceTime popup even appear in the first place?
    It's not clear to me what it is. If it occurs again, please take a screenshot of the popup and post it in a reply.
    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    The screenshot attachment option for this support site appears only on computers - not on iPads.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
    Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

    What happens to my "Dock"?  I use that every time I open my computer(s), along with various mail accounts, and even the Widgets?.  Thanks.

    Using iCloud will not affect your dock or your widgets. If you upgrade to iCloud, your MobileMe mail account will be updated to an iCloud account, but that is all that will happen. What exactly is it that you are worried about.

    user is having a issues with accured vac account on payroll. the account will not balance and they need some help
    can you please guide me how to solve this issue. Its a P1 issue and I need to solve this by EOD.

    User gave me the below inputs:
    My accrued vacation pay hourly account# 23650200 is out of balance.  On 2/11/2010 I transmitted $8765.68 in vacation pay but this account shows $15197.72 a difference of $6432.04.  I can see a debit for $6432.04 made by RMARWAH on the same date, 2/11/2010.  We think this transaction is part of the problem but we are not for sure.
