Re-Enter Password every morning?

Hello,
This has been happening for a very long time but I have ignored it up until now.
Every morning when my computer wakes up I am chronically met with the same prompt " Enter Password for Account "XXXX" " the POP server "xxx.xxx.xxx "rejected the password for the user". Now, although it is an easy fix by just pressing cancel 5 or 6 times, it is a nag every morning to have to do that.
Any thoughts

First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Outlook 2010 keeps prompting for password every morning

    Hi,
    We run Exchange 2007 on Windows server 2008. All SP and updates are up to date.
    About a month ago, two users got prompt for user credential in Outlook every morning, but other users in the domain are fine. Below are what I have tried but no help.
    1. Deleted user credential for Outlook in Credential Manager
    2. Recreated Outlook profile
    3. Disjoin and rejoin their computers to the domain
    I can repeat the problem on another computer with the user's account log in.
    The problem only happens in the morning, once the user entered the credential, Outlook starts to update new email and it will be fine for the rest of the day.
    Only two users have this problem. I can't figure out if they have anything in common. Since I can repeat the problem on another computer, I assume this problem should be related to user account.
    I need help!
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    As per the information and details provided by you, to solve the Outlook 2010 password problem, please follow these steps: -
    Firstly, you try to
    change the profile.
    Open Control panel/Mail/Select the profile and click Properties.
    Select the mailbox and click the
    Change button.
    When inside the profile you will see tabs at top for
    connection and security.
    Please make sure you have selected
    Negotiate authentication, and have unchecked the box that states
    Always prompt for login credentials.
    Then check if you are using
    HTTP to connect with exchange, if so uncheck this and apply the changes.
    Close Outlook if open and reopen Outlook.
    I hope this information will be helpful for you.
    Thanks and regards
    Shweta@G
    Hi Goyal,
    Thank you very much for your reply. The Outlook settings are the same as you described. We do use HTTP to connect to Exchange. I unchecked it and see what happens tomorrow. but just FYI. All Outlook has the same settings with HTTP connection checked. Only
    two specific accounts have the credential issue.
    Will update you tomorrow.
    Thanks,
    Grace

  • ICloud on iMac - asked to enter password every time I login

    I share an iMac (intel) with my wife. We have separate accounts on the iMac each without a password. My account works just fine with iCloud and my AppleID is linked to my user account on the iMac. However, whenever my wife logs in, she is asked every time to 'finish her iCloud setup and to log in to iCloud using her Apple ID'. She is then asked to use 'Find my iMac' and no matter whether she says yes or no, it goes through the process that you normally get when you login for the first time with a new account 'Setting up your Mac', etc, etc.
    I figure there is something wrong with her Apple ID, since if I go to iCloud in System Preferences, I am asked to enter her password to verify her AppleID. When I enter her password, it does not say if it's wrong or right, it just accepts it, but leaves the same screen for you to do this over and over again.
    If I then sign her out of iCloud, when I try to sign her back into iCloud, it says 'You can't sign in at this time, try signing in again'. no matter how many times I try, or for how long I leave it, I can't sign back into iCloud.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Kevin

    Go into the settings, app store and have it require your password immediately
    you can also enable restrictions and turn off the installation of new apps so that someone has to enter the restrictions code to install anything

  • Prompts for Exchange password every morning

    We recently migrated all of our users over to Exchange 2010. After the switch, some of our iPhone users are receiving a prompt each morning to enter their Exchange password. If the user clicks "OK" or "Cancel" the message goes away and their mail works fine the rest of the day. That is, until the next morning when the prompt appears again. I don't know the exact time that this happens, but each user just says when they wake and unlock their phone, the prompt is on the screen. I've been working with MS Exchange support for a month now with no luck. It's such a hard thing to troubleshoot when it only happens once a day and I cannot force the error to happen until the next morning.
    This is not happening to all of our iPhone users, just some. My iPhone has been fine from day one. MS Support can't seem to find anything different about my account (or any of the working accounts) compared to the accounts that are getting the prompts.
    Has anyone seen this before? Or know how to fix? I've found a couple "fixes" online in some forums but none of them have worked for us.

    I have the exact same issue on my iPhone and iPad. Our company just migrated to exchange 2007 in November. Each morning I get the promptmon both devices after unlock. I thought this was due to our company lock out from 12am - 6am for backups, but hearing you have the issue has me thinking it's a software bug.
    I also am having isssues with the phone downloading messages. It just keeps saying "connecting" but takes in some cases 30-60 minutes. This is even with 5 cell bars and full n band wifi. I also am running MobileMe and gmail on the phone, but only MobileMe and exchange are set form push.
    Please help if you can. Thank you.

    They didn't work for me -- I've switched to the new Yahoo beta calendar (which I don't use since it can't sync with Outlook yet) and I still get frequent messages about needing to re-enter my credentials in the Contacts app.  Just another data point -- there are clearly multiple failure scenarios at work here.
    I have periodic login problems with my Yahoo email as well, as well-documented on this forum.  I'm not yet convinced it's not a Yahoo server problem.

  • Hello I changed my ID password and my Iphone 5 keeps asking me to enter ir every time I start de device

    Hello, I updated my ID password over the weekend and my Iphone 5 keeps prompting me to enter the password every minute to start my iCloud Session. I also updated de iOS version to the latest 8. How can I solve this problem?

    Hey carolina2812,
    Sounds like you have an issue with the iCloud account on your iPhone 5. I would like to recommend that you troubleshoot this by restarting your iPhone, then performing a reset on the device if the issue persists. Both actions are explained in the following article:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If neither of these actions affect the issue, you may want to consider signing out of your iCloud account on your device, then re-signing into the device:

  • How do I keep my email password from remaining in Preferences? I want to enter it every time I get my mail. I upgraded to OS M Lion but it won't let me delete it from preferences. It's worked prior to using M. Lion. Any suggestions? Thanks!! Jen

    How do I keep my email password from remaining in Preferences? I want to enter it every time I get my mail. I upgraded to OS M Lion but it won't let me delete it from preferences (the password from Account Info). Once you enter the password, it keeps it permanently. i do not want that.  It's worked prior to using M. Lion. Any suggestions? Also, The other pressing issue i have is, I DO NOT want ANY mail showing in my inboxes when Mail starts UNTIL i enter that password for each account. Instead of creating different user accounts for the MacBook, it's just easier this way. Or is it? If this is a permanent thing, then I may switch back to Lion. I guess I shoud've waited until the kinks were out before installing (**** Mac-head!)
    Thank you all kindly for any suggestions & your time
    Regards,
    JC

    I DO NOT want ANY mail showing in my inboxes when Mail starts UNTIL i enter that password for each account.
    That is simply not possible with Mail, and never has been.  Anyone who uses your account can see all messages stored in Mail.  The only true solution is to not let other people use your account.  Let other people use the guest account, or if you share the machine with someone else, set up a separate user account for that person.  This will also solve the problem of remembering the password.  It will become a non-issue for Mail to remember your password if nobody else has access to your account.

  • How can I change the settings on entering a password every time something is bought

    The problem is I put the password in once and get an app for my son and it is unlocked for a number of minutes I wants it to b locked rite away! Cause he is purchasing things while it is unlocked. Is there any way to have this changed to promp with password every time something is downloaded in the future?

    You can't change the time, which is 15 minutes, after which you don't have to re-enter your password, but I think that signing out of your account when you've downloaded what you want will work : Settings > Store > Sign Out . Or just wait 15 minutes before handing the phone over.

    Help! I have to keep entering my wifi WEP password every time I slide my iphone 4S on  again.  It doesn't store the password as it should.

    The use of WEP is not recommended for compatibility, reliability, performance, and security reasons; WEP is insecure and functionally obsolete. Any reason you're using WEP? I ask, because you might as well not have any security at all, & this is most likely your issue.

  • Is there a way to access my voicemail without having to enter my password every time?

    Is there a way to access my voicemail without having to enter my password every time?  Or is the only way to check emails is to click on the voicemail icon and enter password?

    For that, you would probably have to create a contact and place it on your homescreen. I don't know if there are any settings where you can have the voicemail icon automatically call, although there may be. You can name the contact you place on your homescreen "call voicemail" or "voicemail", though.
    Edit: keep in mind by setting up your voicemail number like I had previously described, anyone with access to your phone will now have access to your voicemails. If you are like me, though, that won't bother you.

  • Do i have to enter my adobe id and password every single time I open Creative Cloud?

    do i have to enter my adobe id and password every single time I open Creative Cloud?
    I have a very long email and after 4 days of using I am already irritated to hell!
    Please add an option to auto login or something please!!!!!!

    If it did, I wouldn't be asking the question......  But I have since discovered what I think is at the heart of the problem: 
    I have my default browser as Chrome. I noticed I did not have a reply button on your post when using Chrome, I swithched to IE and their was a reply button. Hence how I am now managing to reply!
    So it twigged that maybe that also had something to do with the sign of the Creative Cloud App from my notification area icon, seems werid to me but -  Sure enough, now it does keep me logged in between sessions.
    So are you going to fix so I do not have to set IE as my default browser?
