Recently changed hotmail password.
Recently I changed my password for my hotmail account. Now I cannot access my hotmail account though the Mail app.
Here's what I've done so far to fix the issue (in sequence as the previous option failed to work):
- Changed the password under settings
- Deleted the account completely, and re-entered all of the information
- Powered off, and then on again
- Hard restarted
This is what the alert reads currently:
"Cannot Get Mail
The user name or password for 'pop3.live.com' is incorrect"
I am certain that all of the information is correct and that there is no discrepency with my password, or username.
I even went so far as to enter my new password under the e-mail portion and use my former password under pop3.live portion.
So, I am here; asking you, the people of the internet, for help and suggestions!
Help me save my e-mail!
Fun fact: I'll be switching over to a gmail account soon, hotmail has caused me too much trouble this past week.
Thanks!
Anyone have ANY ideas?

I changed my password on Hotmail [Outlook] but my iphone continually asks me to re enter the password as it is not correct, I deleted the account and re-entered all information but it still keeps saying password is incorrect - sometimes message do come through without a problem but then it starts again saying password incorrect
It's not a problem with the phone. The phone doesn't care what our password is. The serve is rejecting your password, not the phone. Talk to your email provider.

I cannot get into my Ipad 2 because a hotmail box pops up saying that i have the wrong password. I recently changed my password and i don't know if thats why or how to change it on my Ipad since i can't get in. thanks
What happens if you tap the home button from that page?
I think you must have push turned on for your mail, and that is the first thing it is trying to do. But from anyscreen, any time, if you hit the home button, it should return you to the home screen. From there, go to settings and do the work on the mail section. -
I recently changed my password to my apple id and was able to log into everything fine except the icloud on my ipad. It reverted back to an old apple id and I don't know the password. I have tried all the suggestions and no luck.
You didn't say what you've tried, but f the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I Recently changed the password for mail, on iMac. I can still read my mail, but the drop down keeps appearing, asking for my password, then telling me it's incorrect. Totally confused.
If your password is accepted, and Mail connects to the account, but you're prompted for the password repeatedly, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Note: these steps don't apply if the server rejects the password. That's a different problem.
Step 1
When prompted for the password, check the box marked Remember this password in my keychain.
Step 2
Check that the keychain is working.
Step 3
Check that the default keychain is unlocked. -
ipad keeps requesting outlook password, trying cancel but still in cycle - can not do anything else. NOTE - recently change email password on PC
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. -
I recently changed my password for my Apple ID and now I can't receive calls on my iPad or Mac. All devices are signed on with the same iCloud account. Anyone have the same issue?
Hello!
On all of these devices, go to: Settings > iCloud and make sure they're updated with the new password. If you're talking about Macs, go to: "System Preferences > iCloud" too. -
I have recently changed my password and Apple ID. The instructions that I received aid that I would receive a message to verify. I have never gotten this message and so ...how do I verify?
On your iPhone go to Settings > Store.
Select the Apple ID at the bottom.
Select Sign Out at the menu selection provided.
Follow this by signing in with your new Apple ID/iTunes store account.
All apps - all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account that was used to download the apps. In order to install an app update for the apps downloaded with your previous Apple ID/iTunes account, you will need to use that account and password. -

My iMac running 10.7.5 has suddenly developed the habit of asking for my keychain password every 10 minutes or so. iTunes, mail and airport are the usual requesters. It's making me nuts! And no, I have not recently changed my password to start this new issue.
Hello dowaco
Try running Keychain First Aid on your keychain or just rese your Keychain to create another keychain to see if that resolves the issue of the repeated prompts for the password.

I changed my apple id email address last week, not a problem I just entered the correct info on my 6 apple devices for FaceTime, AppStore and iTunes.
The issue now, is that I have changed my appleid password so that the kids couldn't install any apps and charge my credit card.
Now I am getting an icloud authorisation error, it is telling me that the account (old apple id) or password are incorrect.
What have I done and how can I fix it?
Do I have to 'delete account' on my iphone and add a new one? I have just paid for the max icloud storage plan as well.I FOUND THE SOLUTION!
I had the same exact problem. I had my old apple ID connected to a school email which did not exist anymore. My ipad was prompting me to put the password in for that ID and I could not delete it from my ipad because the "Find My Ipad" was turned on, once again prompting for password. I called apple and they said this Apple no longer exists and is not in there system, which I knew already. After hours on the phone nobody could help me. Try this.
-Go to create a new Apple ID and use the same email address as the old apple ID which is locked in on your ipad
-Create a new password and all that, it will say it send a verification link to your email, in my case my email no longer exists so I could not do this
- I called Apple to explain this problem and I asked if they could verify it for me, which they did after I convinced them it was worth a try. The guy told me that the verification shouldnt matter and should still be able to login but he did it anyway. You can try skipping this step but if it doesn't work then go ahead.
-Go to ICloud and click on your account, the email should be grayed out but it should allow you to change that password, put in the new password which you just created.
-This allowed me to sign in to accept the new terms and conditions but it said "unable to conncet to server" so I just backed out and went to "Delete Account" and it worked!
The whole idea is to re-create your old apple ID into Apple's system and then use that new password. The guy at Apple said tons of people called about this problem and nobody could solve it. I thanked him for helping me and he thanked me for helping him. I hope this helps you!
