Server Username/Password being reset in Dreamweaver

I've been using dreamweaver for a few years now, but ever
since I installed Dreamweaver 8 I've been having problems wth the
site manager. I have to re-enter the username and login every day.
I am selecting the option for "save password" but it clears both
fields everytime I start DW up. I think I saw something the other
day in some forum that it may have something to do with installing
IE 7. Has anyone seen or heard of this before?
email me!

Definitely. Uninstall IE7.
I am really amazed at how many people have installed this on
a production
system....

Connect to Server/username & password

I am trying to upload files to a web site. I was instructed to create a new network place (a Windows function) and I am trying to do the equivalent on the Mac. If I connect to a server, I can enter the URL, but I never get asked nor do I see how I can enter my username and password to allow access to the site. There is no FTP access to the site, so this appears to be the only method of access. Sorry for reposting this but I'm still searching for an amswer to this issue. On PC the username/password box pops up when trying to connect - in the Mac it shows the connection but no data appears within the connected server and no password options appear.

I am not an expert, but from my limited expieriance on this subject, I can tell you that if the Web Site was developed with the use of PC Software on a PC Web Server you will need to use a PC to update.
Example I have a web site that is hosted by Yahoo, and I am able to use a PC to do any work. However the use of a Mac is impossible. Yahoo uses there own software that is a combination of Microsoft's Frontpage and a couple of other programs that have been used from several years ago.
The use of .Mac will enable you to use a Mac to do a Web site and be the Administrator.
Not all web hosting services will allow the use of Mac Software. While others will enable you to use a cross section of Dreamweaver, FrontPage, Photoshop, InDesign and other softwares such a Studio Pro and others.
So you will need to find out from your Web Hosting Service, to find out if you can use other than a PC to work on the site.

How to prevent user password being reset to the same password?

Hi,
As you all know, domain admin has the power to reset user password. Let's think of the following scenario:
if an admin lets a user reset his password to use the same string, this action means he could nullify company policy on password which requires user's last N passwords being recorded in the history.
We could very well imagine that the admin reset his own personal password in order to bypass company policy.
I have asked partner forum to see if there's a way to prevent such thing, but the reply I got is "No".
I wanted to know if anyone of you have any idea to prevent such thing from happening?
Or if it's possible to get the hash value of users past N password to see if he's always using the same password?
Thanks in advance for your ideas.

Good rules is better alternative to complex policy.
Combine password history with time interval between changes.
Regards
Milos
You don't understand what I mean.
He knows exactly what you mean.

Enforce password history
The Enforce password history policy setting determines the number of unique new passwords that must be associated with a
user account before an old password can be reused .
The possible values for this Group Policy setting are:
A user-defined number from 0 through 24.
Not defined.
Discussion
Password reuse is an important concern in any organization. Many users want to reuse the same password for their account over a long period of time. The longer the same password is used for
a particular account, the greater the chance that an attacker will be able to determine the password through brute force attacks. If users are required to change their password, but nothing prevents them from using the old password or continually reusing a
small number of passwords, the effectiveness of a good password policy is greatly reduced.
Specifying a low number for Enforce password history allows users to continually use the same small number of passwords repeatedly. If you do not also set Minimum
password age, users can change their password as many times in a row as necessary in order to reuse their original password.
If you set Enforce password history to a number greater than zero, users must come up with a new password every time they are required to change their old one. This
improves security, but it can increase the risk that users will write down their passwords so they do not forget them.
If you set the value to the maximum of 24, it helps to ensure that vulnerabilities caused by password reuse are kept to a minimum.
For this policy setting to be effective in your organization, configure Minimum password age so that you do not allow passwords to be changed immediately. Enforce
password history should be set at the level that combines a reasonable maximum password age with a reasonable password change interval requirement for users.

Server user password fails daily

I have a server with Windows Server 2003, and seven workstations with Windows 7.
Among the items the server hosts is a folder to which Everyone has full access and permissions. On every workstation is a shortcut to that folder. My staff requires daily access to it.
That folder has a simple password, which everyone knows. However, when they click their shortcut to that folder, it asks for a username/password, which it doesn't accept. Once I reset the password on the server (the SAME password), then the shortcuts
work, without the username/password box.
What server settings could be causing this, and how can I ensure my staff has daily, free access to this folder?

-->which Everyone has full access and permissions
-->Once I reset the password on the server (the SAME password), then the shortcuts work, without the username/password box.
reset the password, no password and username poped up? no need to type...?
everyone has full control permission, why also need username and password...? did you mean still want to configure as original settings so need to type name/password?
Best,

TS1307 "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination". This message pops up when trying to mail photos from iPhoto. How do I fix it?

"The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination." This message pops up when trying to send photos from iPhoto via Mail. I have tried reseting passowrds in both gmail and me.com

Thanks for helping Christeneau. You helped me too...eventually. I say eventually because I was puzzled by your 'What does it say behind "email photo's using"'?
I realised the problem was your incorrect use of the apostrophe 's', as in 'photo's using'.
I just could not make any sense of this sentence at all, until I realised that you meant to write, "What does it say behind "email photos using". What you employed was the possesive use of the apostrophe - a mistake that seems to have become endemic in english speaking nations during the last 10 years or so, brought on by the lack of understanding basic english grammar. This has come about because of sloppy teaching methods the world over - it's not really your fault.
It's quite simple: The apostrophe 's' should be used as the following examples show:
James's apple, the car's horn, the world's atmosphere. The one exception is 'its shape,' where there is no apostrophe showing posession because that construction has been used as an abbreviation to 'it is', as in 'it's'.
Plurals (more then one) NEVER have an apostrophe! E.g. CDs, eggs, biscuits, vehicles, UNLESS to show possesion - a CD's label, the biscuit's taste, a vehicle's colour.
Thanks again for you help.

Why can't I reset the master password with the option of removing all username:passwords by unchecking "Use Master Password"?

Why can't I reset the master password with the option of removing all username:passwords by unchecking "Use Master Password"? Currently, there seems to only be the option to issue a "chrome:" command in URL which DOES reset the master password. However, it was something that I had to google. The intuitive option would be to uncheck the "Use Master Password" checkbox, receive a verification dialogue, and blammo, password reset. Please make this a feature, thank you.

''cor-el [[#answer-702776|said]]''
<blockquote>
You can remove all password in the Show Passwords dialog.
That is where you manage the passwords.
The master password is only for protecting the passwords with an extra level of encryption and has nothing to do with erasing passwords apart from resetting the MP in case you have forgotten the MP and can't open "Show passwords".
</blockquote>
Sorry, for being unclear. Essentially this is a feature request for an option under Firefox options (why not?) to reset my Master Password not knowing the Master Password. For Security reasons I understand why all the saved passwords have to be wiped, but wiping the Master Password (having forgotten it) should be an option without having to issue an arcane command that one has to google to figure out.

Unable to send photos because server doesn't recognize username/password combo

Have a MacBook Air using iPhoto 9.5.1 and operating system OS X 10.9.3.
I have tried to share photos with email using my Yahoo account. I receive the following message whenever I attempt to send a photo "username/password not recognized by email server."
I have gone into my accounts numerous times in System preferences. My username/password combo is recognized there. I have also changed my password on Yahoo and in my accounts. But I still receive the above message.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Have a current backup before proceeding here. Time Machine or otherwise.
If no outbound messages are sent... There are two different server definitions and two different places where you need a user and a password, the first and most obvious setting within mail is for receiving mail; the POP or IMAP setting. Everybody gets that one. To get to the credentials and the password used to send mail messages (the one that folks don't find as easily), Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select the account > switch the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) to "Edit SMTP Server List", then find the Yahoo SMTP server entry, then fix the password there.
Here's the Apple mail troubleshooting information.
If that fails, remove the entry and re-add it.
If smaller messages are sent correctly and larger messages are blocked, Yahoo may be restricting the size of the message(s) being sent. Try smaller messages as a test, or use a file sharing service to transfer the images, or maybe wait for the OS X Yosemite Mail Drop feature.
PS and FWIW, this message was originally posted in the OS X Server forum, and you're not running OS X Server here — OS X Server includes various network services, including a mail server — a mail server is what Yahoo is running here, but OS X Server allows folks to configure and run a mail server locally on a Mac Mini or some other Mac configured as a server. Your MacBook Air would then connect into that server, in addition to or in place of the Yahoo server. Like most other mail servers, the mail server within OS X Server can be configured to block larger messages, too.

Hi. I d like to email a photo from iPhoto but I keep receiving the same error message saying that the combination username /password is incorrect so it won't send the email. How do I reset these parameters so I can email my pix? Thx

You have a number of things that will make this not work.
Your mailto link is not the way to go, take a look at this and it should get you on the right path.
http://www.paulgdesigns.com/learncontactform.php
On your action page, you can have it give the thank you message that you want. Having a seperate page saying they forgot to do something complicates matters more than you might wish at this point, and usually irritates people. however if you decide you want to go that way, look up "sticky forms". What this does is re-populate the fields when they have to go back to correct.
A better way would be to validate the information, you can use Spry if you want which is built into dreamweaver.
You also have in your html form this
enctype="multipart/form-data"
That is used for sending files, and since you are not, the form would not work, so you want to remove it.
Hopefully that will give you a starting point.

The hard drive on my MacBook died and I had it replaced. I can't locate my website files and every time I try to open my idisk it looks for a name and password (even reset my apple id as prompted) I keep being told that it's the wrong name or password?

I'm trying to email from iPhoto

Entourage error "The server for my email acount returned the error "Login Failed". Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would you like to try re-entering your password?"

I have 1 user on a Mac who just started having a pop up message when opening entourage "The server for my email acount returned the error "Login Failed".
Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would
you like to try re-entering your password?" I know the settings are right because the users mail works on iPhone,iPad,an windows machine. I have deleted entourage plist and also tried a new user same message appears in new user.

When I try to email pictures from i photos, I get this: email server didn't recognize your username/password combo. How do I fix this?

When trying to email pictures from i photo, a message comes up that "email server didn't recognize your username/password combo" I'm not that savy, does anyone know how to fix this?? I did change my Apple password, but that shouldn't effect it should it??
thanks!!

I get the same message.

The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination.

OS: OS X Mavericks
iPhoto: iPhoto v9.5.1 (902.17)
I choose a photo, select Share, select Email, enter an email address to send to and click Send - then I get this error: "The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination."
In iPhoto preferences I have "Email photos using" set to "iPhoto"; I have an account added for Gmail (outgoing mail server: smtp.gmail.com; Port: 587; User Name and Password are correct for my gmail account, Use SSL is checked - basically everything is default for when I chose to add a gmail account and I'm positive my user name and password are entered correctly). I do not have 2-step verification enable for my gmail account (I've been searching for a solution online and noticed others mentioned this - this does not apply to my situation).
Please help! What is going on? I just want to send an email from iPhoto using my gmail account.
Thanks!

Thanks again for responding, MrHoffman; my responses to your questions are below in italics:
Have you tested the Gmail account via Apple Mail.app, and does both sending and receiving work?
Yes, I have tested the Gmail account via the Apple Mail.app - sending and receiving work just fine.
Have you confirmed that the Gmail user and password work with the Gmail web interface?
Yes, I am sure it is the correct username and password; I am able to access the Gmail account via the Gmail web interface.
Are you aware of and familiar with both sets of credentials present within each account within Mail.app? In particular, have you gotten to the configuration displays the SMTP server settings? (Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) > select Edit SMTP Server List > select the SMTP server account > edit the SMTP server settings.)
I'm not sure what you mean by both sets of credentials, but yes, in the Mail.app I have set the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) to Gmail (and used the Edit SMTP server list... option to set the smtp server to use default ports, use SSL, and use "Password" authentication (again with my correct username and password for the Gmail account). I also have the Account Information in Mail.app set for the incoming mail server (maybe that's what you mean by both). Either way, I believe having these settings for incoming mail server and outgoing mail server are allowing me to send and receive email for this Gmail account through Mail.app.
I've also had some success by launching Keychain Access.app and finding all passwords associated with the account — specifically and only the Gmail account, in this case — and removing them from your keychain. This does mean you'll have to re-add those passwords — using Mail.app and no other applications — and see if things start working.
I just tried this - I launched Keychain Access.app and removed all entries associated with Gmail. I opened Mail.app, re-entered my password info, and sent a test email to another account - this worked. I opened iPhoto.app, re-entered my password via the Preferences, selected a photo, selected share, selected email, entered a to: address and clicked send - this didn't work (same error message as before (The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination).
