Shared datasource using stored credentials still keeps prompting for password

We have a reporting services running in sharepoint 2013 integrated mode.We have deployed a shared datasource and used a stored credentials to connect to an oracle database. However, whenever i try to build a report and use this report datasource, it will
display a dialog box and prompt for the stored credentials password, and once the password has been entered, we can succeessfully connect to the oracle db and build our report. For security reasons, we can't divulge the password to the users.
Is there anyway where reporting service will not prompt for the stored credentials password whenever we use this data source to build our report. We have already prepopulated the password in the data source definition page. Please help

In the Shared Data Source, where you configured the name and password, there are two boxes that could be ticked:
1. If the account is a Windows domain user account, specify it in this format: <domain>\<account>, and then select
Use as Windows credentials when connecting to the data source.
2. If the user name and password are database credentials, do not select
Use as Windows credentials when connecting to the data source. If the database server supports impersonation or delegation, you can select
Impersonate the authenticated user after a connection has been made to the data source.
I'm not sure if Oracle allows for Windows authentication. You need to tick one of these two boxes for the password to be passed through to the database.
Cheers,

Outlook 2010 keeps prompting for password

Hi,
We use Exchange 2008 and Outlook 2010. For some reason, Outlook 2010 keeps prompting for password. My use entered the password and checked "Remember Password" box, but next morning when he logged in, he still got the prompt.
I removed the Outlook credential for Outlook listed under Password Credential in Control Panel, but still no help.
Please advise!
Thanks in advance!
Grace

Cannot receive/send emails via Mail on Mac using 10.6.8, keeps asking for password, very frustrating. Any ideas please? Regards

One more time, iCloud mail accounts are .me, .mac and .icloud. New ones are only .icloud.
iCloud mail is a standard Imap account that can be used with any mail client in existence. But You are talking about the ability to automatically setup an iCloud account in mail, which did not exist until 10.7.2.
You can use password or token authentification with iCloud mail (in Mail) it is your choice.
Set the account manually, set it as Imap, use imap.mail.me.com (no P number) for the incoming email and smtp.mail.me.com as the outgoing server.
The full settings (ports and security) are here. Use them and it will work, regardless of domain (mac, me and icloud addresses all use the same settings.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
Server name: imap.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
Port: 993
Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
Port: 587
SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
Password: Your iCloud password
Note: If you receive errors using SSL, try using TLS instead. SSL is required for both IMAP and SMTP connection with iCloud. POP is not supported by iCloud.
For more information on how to use this information with your email application, consult your application's documentation.

Why does Outlook keep prompting for password

We have seen our community members ask questions about Outlook keeps prompting for credentials many times. This issue could be caused by numerous reasons. Below is a list of the most common reasons for this problem:
Outlook is configured to prompt you for credentials
Incorrect password cached in credential storage
Required Authentication Settings for outgoing server and incoming server
Outlook Anywhere is not configured to use NTLM Authentication
Corrupt Outlook profile
Slow or unstable network connection
Antivirus programs
Shared calendars
Outlook is configured to prompt you for credentials
If you are using an Exchange account, there is a setting in your Outlook profile to always prompt for logon credentials. To find the setting, please follow:
1. In Outlook 213, go to File tab > Info >
Account Settings > Account Settings…
2. Highlight your Exchange account and click Change button.
3. Click on More Settings button.
4. Select the Security tab.
5. Under the User Identification, make sure the “Always prompt for logon credentials” option is not selected.
If you are using other types of email, please make sure you have ticked the option “Remember password”.
Incorrect credential cached in Credential Manager
Your Windows system stores user credentials on your computer. If the cached credentials are incorrect, you will be prompted for password. This issue usually happens after the password for your domain user account is changed. Before your password changed,
you saved your credentials. The stored credentials are not overwritten when Outlook triggers the authentication prompt even if you enable the Remember my credentials option.
To fix this issue, you need to remove the corrupted credentials, follow these steps:
Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Credential Manager.
Note If View by is set to Category, click User Accounts first, and then click Credential Manager.
Locate the set of credentials that has Outlook in the name.
Click the name to expand the set of credentials, and then click Remove from Vault.
Repeat step 3 for any additional sets of credentials that have the word Outlook in the name.
Required Authentication Settings for outgoing server and incoming server
Different email provider may need different authentication settings. Please make sure you have set the server settings correctly. You can contact your email provider to gather the information.
In general, we select the “My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication” option and the first bullet “Use same settings as my incoming mail server”.
In addition, click on the Advanced tab and check if you have enter the correct Server Port Number and select the correct encrypt type. Below is a screenshot for an IMAP account:
Outlook Anywhere is not configured to use NTLM Authentication
The Outlook Anywhere feature allows you to access your Exchange account remotely from the Internet when you are working outside your organization's firewall.
When using Outlook Anywhere to connect to your Exchange server, we need to choose
the authentication method among Basic Authentication, NTLM Authentication and Negotiate Authentication. The difference among them is the way that the passwords are sent when connecting to the server. With Basic Authentication,
the password is sent in clear text. Using NTLM Authenticationcan significantly reduce the number of password prompts.
To check the authentication setting, please go to File > Account Settings > Account Settings,
select the Exchange account, and then click
Change. In the Change Account wizard, click
More Settings, and then click the Connection tab. Click the Exchange Proxy Settings button and now, you can see the settings under
Proxy authentication settings. Try to change the authentication to
NTLM Authentication and then check the issue again.
Slow or unstable network connection
If your network connection is slow or unstable, Outlook may lose connection to the mail server. When Outlook try to reconnect, it will prompt for the credentials. To verify this, please switch to a stable network environment and then check if this issue
persists.
Corrupt Outlook Profile
Corrupt profile may cause Outlook to no longer remember your password. Please try to create a new mail profile in Control Panel and reconfigure your email account in the new profile to fix the issue. To create a new mail profile, you can refer:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829918
Antivirus software
Antivirus software usually integrates into your Outlook and it may cause some conflicts. Try to temporarily turn off your antivirus software to check if the issue will be gone.
Shared Calendar
Shared calendars can impact the user credentials, this issue may also occur if you have shared calendars opened in Outlook. You can try to unselect the shared calendar to check the result. It’s recommended to not open the shared calendar unless you want
to view them.

Nope...
I went through point by point by point, top to bottom, checking and verifying every single item as a possible cause for why my system (Outlook 2013 running on Windows 8.1 and connecting to Exchange 2010) insists on prompting me for my password every single
time I start Outlook. None of the solutions worked, my system still prompts me. I don't even have to supply a password. When the prompt dialog appears, I just cancel it. Within a few seconds, the bottom Outlook status bar changes to
"Need Password" with a key icon to the left. Then I just click on that message and immediately Outlook connects to Exchange.
The freaking software is BROKEN! Period.

Mac OS X server keeps prompting for passwords on all devices.

Hi,
I'm running an Mac OS X Server (10.6.8) with iCal, Address Book and Mail enabled. My issue is that the clients (iCal and Calendar in iOS) keeps asking for passwords on strange intervals, and it usually results in it not accepting the right password until you restart the client. It can run smoothly for days and some times it just goes completely bananas. It makes no difference if its a regular user or a Open Directory user.
This happens to all the services mentioned above but iCal is the worst.

Wait do you mean you are running 10.6.7 server right?
When did you upgrade to this version? Was it ok before the upgrade?

Outlook keeps prompting for password

This is a weird situation. User logs in to domain without issues and is able to access outlook. However, during the middle of the day, outlook keeps prompting user for authentication or password.
Profile has been re-created. ESSO cache was cleared, but still the same thing. Created separate email profile for other email accounts she access, but same issue still occurs.
Has anyone seen this issue and what resolution have you used.

Truly I don't mean to disparage your comment/proposed answer, but in today's day and age one should really never, ever use "Remember my Password" for any context. This means web forms even on trusted sites and/or when the windows subsystem
is called to prompt you for your Windows Password.
This is a very bad practice for two reasons:
The first is due to Heartbleed and/or the like-wise thousands of malware that are constantly attempting to hijack your username/password entry. Please understand that when you ask systems to remember your password what is happening on the backend.
That password is being saved somewhere, or a cookie is being set. The only "safe" way to remember your password is in your head.
The second is due to account lockouts. If you routinely use "Remember my Password", especially across several computers (home, work) and devices (ActiveSync on iPhone/iPad, etc.) then you are a prime candidate for getting a locked out domain account.
We, in IT, won't like you very much after that :) Please understand that when you choose that option, those features do not remember to update all those places you have saved when you reset your password (every 90, 120 days, whatever your organization's
password policy dictates). As soon as you do, you will begin to lock out all sorts of applications and/or your domain account.
As I said above, the only "safe" place for you to store your password is in your brain. Now this gets difficult over time because you also don't want to use the same password over and over again for different places. Because when you
do get compromised (and I do mean when, not "if") that hacker will not only have your password, but also will know where all you have used it. And the first place they will go is your online Bank, Savings, online stock, etc... If
you don't routinely rotate your passwords, and use different ones then you may just as well hand over the keys to your house.
Use a format like "for every letter O, I will use a zero", "I will use a 3 for the letter E" or "instead of the letter S, I will use a 5", then pick something only you would remember, like "that trip to Puerto Rico
was memorable"... so your new password would be Pu3rt0 5ic0. Throwing in a space helps combat robot hacking. Now this is slightly bad too though because they are dictionary or common words. Then keep on that theme and think up a few
more passwords that you will remember, AirPlan3 Tix, 5andy B3ach3s! <-- and if/when they require special chars, throw a "bang" or "exclamation mark" on there.
If this seems a huge imposition (my gut would tell you to get over it, but in IT, hey we try to help too!) ask your Systems Admins/Architects to implement a Federation provider (like OKTA or OneLogin, or ADFS - probably least preferable). Then they
can setup the multitude of hosted service providers (think "cloud applications" though I hate that word) for either SAML based Single Sign On, or leverage that service's proprietary "Password Safe" aka "Secure Web Authentication".
Or lastly, for yourself you can go download KeePass. This is a "wallet" style application that you can lock away all your passwords; though you will need to remember to update them in KeePass as you then may reset them. Single Sign On
is always more preferential because they will typically use your Domain credentials (i.e., Kerberos authentication local to your Org's domain) as part of the solution.

Notes keeps prompting for password

Hello,
I have a PowerMac (10.7), a MacBookPro (10.8), an iPhone (iOS 5) and a MacMini (10.6.8 Server). I have a user account Smith on the server and Mail service is activated. All my devices are configured to exchange notes through the server, using Smith account.
When I create a note on my PowerMac in Mail, the synchronization works and I can see the note on my iPhone. Sync also works on the other way.
But when I create a note on my MacBook, Notes keeps prompting me for the Smith account password every minute. And the sync does not work because I don't see my notes on my iPhone. Sync also does not work on the other way. But no problem with Mail which uses the same Smith account : I can send and receive emails (and I am not prompted for my password).
I tried to syncrhonize Notes with another mail account on my web provider and it works. I can create a note on my MacBook and see it on my iPhone.
It seems that Notes only fails to sync when I use an account on my server. This is a regression compared to Lion : Notes and OSX 10.6.8 seem incompatbile.
Any idea about the problem ? I saw that there are sync problem with Notes but nobody seems to have this password problem.
Thanks for your help.
Eric.

You can disable the password protection when downloading apps (Dont know where is that in settings, cos my iPad is bricked).
Technically, this is made for security, so that noone can download any unwanted app or charge any unwanted money from paid apps.

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!
Grace

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

Messages keeps prompting for password

Messages(iMessage) on my 13" Macbook Pro is constantly prompting for the password when sending or recieving messages. Sometimes multiple times while typing a response, or trying to send a response. It used to work, but for the last month it has been driving me crazy. I have tried several things found on this forum with no luck. Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
Although the Messages app stores the ID and the linked Password separately from other apps it does seem odd that it seems only Messages is effected.
However I would check ownership of the Keychain.
Open a Finder window.
Go to the View Menu and chose "Show Path Bar"
At the bottom of the window an extra set of details regarding the route to the folder you are currently looking in will be displayed.
Now use the Go Menu > Go to Folder and type (Copy and Paste) ~/Library/Keychain
There should at least be an item called login.keychain
Highlight this then use the CDM + i "Get Info" keystrokes.
At the bottom of this panel it will tell you if you have Read and Write permissions
Your name should be in the list and when you highlight your name and then use the Cogwheel icon below the list you should find the Phrase "Make yourshortname (Me) the Owner" is greyed out (as if already done)
I would also tend to use the Finder's View Menu > Show View Options and display the Modified column to see that the Keychain is being updated.
IF the Keychain is owned by you and you have Read And Write permissions then right-click the Library on the Path Bar.
Use the Get Info option and check you Own this and have Read and Write Permission.

Why does iTunes keep prompting for password for Auto Downloads

What is the point checking off "Always check for available downloads" and "Download pre-orders when available" if iTunes isn't going to actually automatically download anything until I go to my computer and enter the password in the pop-up? I understand having to enter a password when buying something new, but why can't it just download the already paid for pre-order TV shows without me having to intervene? All that does it save one step (clicking on "Check for available downloads") and it causes my iTunes to stop or interrupt streaming to my devices such as AppleTV when that prompt is sitting on the screen.
There is no good reason this basic stuff shouldn't be completely automatic ... I should be able to go to bed at night, and when I get up in the morning and go to my AppleTV I should immediately be able to just watch any new episodes that became available during the night without having to stream them from iCloud (which means I would have to download it twice, once while streaming and again to have it on my Mac).

Exchange keeps prompting for password?

I have an iPhone that I've setup for a user in our company. We've setup alot of users thus far, we've encountered one special one that is having an issue we can't seem to fix. Thus far, we've replaced the phone with a new phone, same issues came back.
Basically, setting up the Exchange account on the iPhone, works no issue. Email downloads, everything syncs. About an hour or so later, there will be a prompt on the iPhone asking to input an Exchange password and re-inputting the password (that is the correct one) doesn't work.
We can't see to fix or know what might be causing the issue? Any help??
Thanks!!!!

Outlook 2010 keeps prompting for credentials

Hello,
I have just about every user experiencing an issue with Outlook 2010 where Outlook keeps prompting for credentials. This has been happening ever since recent Microsoft Office updates that rolled out last week it seems. All my users still have connection
to the exchange server and can send/reply just fine. Issue occurs on both 32 bit and 64bit versions. This prompt will appear every few seconds and is becoming a nuisance for all my users.
I have attempted the following with no resolution:
- removed credentials from credentials manager
- ran Outlook in safe mode
- ran repairs on Office
- completely removed and re-added users Outlook profile (profiles are manually configured)
- made sure Office is up to date
- configured Outlook account on freshly imaged PC
