Password not correct

I am trying to set up a Jabber account. I know for a fact that the username and password are correct, but it keeps saying that they are not. I've changed the username, deleted the iChat plists, and deleted the keychains for the account. Is there a way I can fix this?
Thanks

Hi,
iChat allows you to choose to add one of five types of Names.
iChat > Preferences > Accounts > + Button
A slide out/pop up screen appears.
In the middle of this is a Drop down to choose between the three AIM Valid options of AIM, @Mac.com and MobileMe above the line and Jabber of GoogleTalk below the line.
Did you choose Jabber ?
Do you have a another Jabber Client (App) that can login into a Jabber server and does the name work there ?
If So when it has been added to iChat and you go to the Server Settings does it list the Jabber Server you are using as the Server ?
If it lists Auto Discovery for port and Server try it with that off and then try port 5223 with SSL Enabled and 5222 with SSL Off.
If you are using a Google ID from GoogleMail (@Gmail.com or @googlemail.com) you should add it as a GoogleTalk ID in iChat otherwise it will mistakenly pull the gmail.com (or googlemail.com) through as the server.
Other Google IDs that you can get without liking to their Mail Service have Gmail.com as the server but login on port 443.
If you are having issues and think a .plist needs deleting only delete the com.apple.Jabber.plist one
You can use this Users tip to Check the Passwords
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=607493
You will have to use another app to log the Screen Name in to check it as most Jabber Servers to not have Web Page Registration/Login options.
It is late where I am and I may not reply for several hours.

  • IPhone/iTouch "password not correct" on home WiFi

    This problem reads like many others threads but I haven't really seen an answer - Do Apple Employees Administrate these forums??
    I have an iTouch and an iPhone 3Gs both now on os4 but this prob has happened through last 3 firmware versions.
    They both connect to the home WiFi, but wont remain connected and will ask for the WiFi Password followed by a Password Not Correct message. You can continue to input the password and occasionally it is accepted or you can power cycle the router but both are temp fixes as the Apple's will drop back off again (sometimes minutes later or hours later). I have exhausted my efforts with the router (firmware upgrades and every combination of security setting) Other devices (laptop, wii etc)don't have any WiFi issues. In saying that, the iPhone stays connected to the work WiFi no problems.
    I have tried WEP and WPA security. I've enabled MAC Address filtering which didn't help but after reading one of the threads I have disabled WiFi security and have MAC Address filtering enabled and it seems to be holding up (only attempted a couple of hours ago.) Is this a secure workaround or does someone know what I need to do? I'd prefer not to use this method as it's handy to let visiting friends/family use my WiFi.
    The router is a Linksys WRT54GP2 and the signal level is high throughout the house and always seen by the Apple's
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
    The iPad purchase is next if I can get an answer (a mate has brought his around and had the same problem) - so come on Apple employees, put your heads together!

    Yeah you aren't the only one. I have the same router, and my iPod, dads iPhone, and 2 other apple macbooks always had troubles with the router. A temp fix would be restarting the router, but keyword here is temp.
    Unfortuantely we cant use custom linux firmware as per http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/support/router-database
    My router firmware version is
    Firmware Version: 1.30.05
    I recall I upgraded from version 1.00 ages back but that did nothing.
    Anyway I shall try google around for more solutions, I'll get back to you if there is a fix.

  • Am trying to subscribe to Hulu Plus But keeping asking your email  or password not correct !!! So What is the reason and both is correct ...

    Am trying to subscribe to Hulu Plus But keeping asking your email  or password not correct !!! So What is the reason and both is correct :(

    You have to configure Gmail to allow access to less secure apps. Thunderbird uses the IMAP-protocol, but Google thinks it isn't safe enough.
    Go to your browser and login to Gmail. Now click on your profile picture and click Account. Go to the Security tab and click on Settings for Access for less secure apps under Account Permissions. Enable it and Thunderbird should have access to your email...
    BTW This is totally safe. There's no need to scratch behind your ear about changing this setting

  • Apple ID username, password not correct for imessenger ios 6

    i just upgraded to ios 6 on my iphone 4 and imessenger is fine to send and receive but when i go to settings and try to register it with my apple ID i get an error that the username and password are not correct, although i am usung the apple ID fine in app store for example. anyone knows what this is?
    also, i was wondering, while setting up my iphone after the upgrade to ios 6, in one of teh steps when i started using the phone, it asked for teh apple ID password to do soemthing related to icloud, imessenger and facetime. it also gave the option on the phone screen to "skip this step" which i did, i skiped the stem and thought if i wanted to i can go back and do it manually from the settings any time. i think it was something related to downloading new features for the icloud. i messenger and facetime.
    could this have been the case? but i mean if i had the option to "skip the step" it means that it is not something drastic and can always be done manually later.
    anyone has feedback?

    Hi again, well I can't answer that question, because  my computer IS asking for my apple ID and password to install Rosetta Stone. I would have appreciated you taking the time to help me, if you had had any advice for me. Since I posted this, I have found the answer so I don't need your time anymore, however. I eventually went to my settings and SET a password, which solved the problem. I recently reset my computer and all my records had been wiped- I was unaware that my computer settings had deleted my old password which had been saved on it- not realizing that its data would be seperate from the other numerous places I have used it the past week since I got it back. An answer that would seem like a no-brainer, but since it hadn't needed to be done until then for any other previous installs since the reset, it appeared last on my to-do list.

  • Username or password not correct

    I am trying to update apps on my iTouch but it will not accept my password which I know is correct.  My password is 12 digit, but when I see it on the id information on my iTouch it only has 7 or 8 dots, not 12.  Reset the password on my Apple ID and everything works except the iTouch.  Any ideas

    Same thing happened to me. My son's iPod touch suddenly started indicating that my "username or PW had changed" or was "incorrect" so I paid Apple $30 to find out that all that was required was updating the software by plugging his iPod into my computer and syncing with iTunes. My problem was then solved. FYI this latest version of iPod software wouldn't let me download or install until I temporarily disabled my firewall and antivirus program. Good luck!

  • IPhone/iTouch "password not correct" messages using WRT54GP2 Router

    Hi,
    My iPhone & iTouch keep dropping off the wireless network and when you select the network from the list of available networks, the Apple's will ask for the password even though they have been set to automatically connect.  They then tell you that the password is incorrect.  My work Laptop works fine (both home computers are patched directly into the Router).  I have upgraded the firmware to 1.30.06 and have enabled MAC Filtering and added their MAC Addresses to the allowed list..
    My settings are WPA Pre-Shared Key (Though I have tried WEP), Mixed Wireless Network mode and SSID Broadcast is enabled.  I have tried adjusting the Wireless channel up & down the Frequency band too with no joy.
    This problem occurs frequently and the only short term fix I have found is to power cycle the router and they will connect but  will then drop off the network within 5 minutes to 3 hours.  Please help - my mobile bill is through the roof as a result!

    Thanks for the advise.  I have reset the router for 30 seconds as part of the firmware upgrade but I have then restored my settings via a backup and as a result may have re inported the problem so I have done a reset again and reinstalled settings from scratch leaving everything possible in a default state but the problem was evident immediately.  Thanks for the advise though!
    The MAC Filtering set to enabled with no other wireless security has been working beautifully though which suggests to me it is a security protocol compatability issue - but as mentioned I have tried both WEP and WPA Pre shared key. 
    I'm seriously considering sticking to the MAC Address solution, not ideal but beggars cant be choosers .  Is this secure enough - I'm guessing it's probably the most secure configuration, just not very flexible.
    Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Ios 8.2 gmail IMAP password not correct

    I Updated to 8.2 yesterday on both my iPad and iPhone. This morning both devices report my app specific passwords are incorrect. I cannot retrieve or send mail from only my gmail accounts in the mail app. I downloaded the gmail app and i can send and recoeve from there. I have already reset both devices, deleted gmail and readded the account in settings, unlocked my captcha, and turned off IMAP and turned it back on in my main gmail settings. I have also generated new app specific passwords to try. Am I missing anything to try or change?
    Thanks,
    Brian

    Update 8.2 has broken our Google Apps mail integration for my company. We are getting password incorrect errors on multiple accounts. Deleting the account, restarting and readding does nothing. Even removing 2 step verification does not fix the issue. Just wanted to give a heads up.

  • Password not accepted by appstore

    I wonder why all apps which demand Aplle ID and password like iCloud, Apple support ect. work well on the same imac, but only AppStore DOES NOT accept it (message "password not correct").
    I also reset my password - but no result. All works fine, except appstore :-( Antivirus and firewall are switched off. I also tried several suggestions from support community, like updating with MacOSXUpdCombo10 - no way, it won't work. I really need some help !

    Try deleting the App Store cache...
    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Ppen the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Relaunch the App Store.

  • System error 86 has occurred. The specified network password is not correct. - despite the NTLMv2 fix

    After the Windows 2008 R2 64 bit server got below 2 updates a network share is no longer available. And trying to remap it with correct credentials (that work on a Windows 8.1 64 bit) gives this error: "System error 86 has occurred. The specified network
