SharePoint site is asking for user/password

I just created a new web application on port 80 with anonymous access enabled.
Web application is using host header "portal" which is also defined in IIS under "Bindings" (this was done by SharePoint automatically when I created web application). I have also created a site collection under this web application.
In AAM, default zone is defined as http://portal
I have created "A Record" in DNS (this is single server farm for testing) with name "portal" and using same IP which is assigned to this server which is 192.168.137.121.
Problem is when I try to open http://portal in browser, it asks me to enter user/password even though I am logged in as site collection administrator. And no matter how many times I give user/password it keeps asking me to login again and again.
Even if I disable anonymous access, it asks for user/password. I have reset IIS several times.
What am I doing wrong?

The first thing to check is whether you configured the SuperUser and SuperReader accounts for this Web Application correctly. I've seen this kind of behavior if the accounts are not set in PowerShell or if the accounts are set using NTLM names instead
of Claims. Take a look at the following for more information:

Preview asking for user password on PDF file. There is no password. Anyone have any suggestions?

Preview asking for user password on PDF file. There is no password. Anyone have any suggestions?

OK. Open your PDF with Preview and at the top of the window (near the file's title) you will see Locked in grey.
Click on it and in the menu that appears click Unlock.
It looks like this in OS 10.7.3 :
For information you can view the permissions of a PDF file in Preview by choosing in the menu bar Tools > Inspector, and then click Encryption (the lock).
Hope this will help.

System Preferences is asking for user password three times (?)

System Preferences>Startup Disk requires the user password to unlock the pane (per my security settings), I select my startup choice (my main HD), then upon re-locking the pane I am asked for the password two more times.
?

Then, don't relock the lock, just restart.

Acrobat keep asking for user password

Hi, I'm on Mac OS X SL 10.6.7.
Every time I open Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, Mac OS X ask for my User Password. So, I enter my password and the Acrobat open with no problem. The same happens when opening a PDF file, it ask for my OS X user password in order to open Acrobat. This is not a serious issue, 'cause I get to finally open the program, but it is really anoying... I don't know how to fix this, is the only program that do this, I have deactivated the request for this password when opening programs in Onyx, but nothing works...
I have this problem since an Acrobat update long ago, can't remember when exactly... Before that this never happen
Sorry for the English, it's only my third languaje, hehe
"Enter your password for that Adobe Acrobat can make changes"
Thanks for the support everybody!!

This first thing to try is to fix permissions using Disk Utility or Onyx. You can also try to use Onyx to delete the user and system caches on your computer. I forget if Onyx allows you to look for corrupt preference files, but Applejack allows you to do that. One of those might do the trick.

Is it policy for Apple Store to ask for user password to repair iMac?

My father just took his iMac G5 into the Apple Store to get repaired. It seemingly is having a power supply issue (http://www.apple.com/support/imac/powersupply/repairextension/).
They said they needed his password. This sounded absurd to me. Is this common practice?
thanks,
Clint

..."and implied that if he didn't give it to them, that it wasn't their fault if the computer wasn't fixed."...
I find that appalling. Realistically, I doubt that Apple Stores are setting out to steal their customer's personal information, but there is no question from your account that that is the risk that people are being coerced to expose themselves to. Every organization will have its, ahem, bad apples, and it isn't unheard of for repair techs to go snooping in people's hard drives, eg.
http://consumerist.com/consumer/investigations/video-consumerist-catches-geek-sq uad-stealing-****-from-customers-computer-271963.php
Given this reality, there really should be a policy against asking for a user password which grants access beyond what can be read straight off of the hard drive. But three separate people have posted about being asked for their account passwords for a repair that should not require it. The specific stores haven't been mentioned, but I find it unlikely that all three of you are posting about the same store so it would seem the practice unfortunately seems to be common.
I don't know about the specifics, or merits of the case (IANAL), but a class action lawsuit has been launched against Apple for following unsafe practices with respect to the inclusion of too much personal information on receipts they issue for online purchases.
http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=201311228
The picture I'm getting that somewhere in the chain of command, someone at Apple the corporation doesn't "get" the importance of protecting customers' personal information to prevent this sort of thing from happening.
Sorry, I don't know what to suggest about who to report this to, or what steps to take to ensure that any personal information that could potentially have been accessed is not misused.

HT202159 My purchased download get to around 25% download then mac asks for user password and download fails and I have to start again

I am currently downloading a purchased application from apple store, the application starts downloading then at some stage through the download the Mac asks for my user password to make changes, once I enter the password the download just disappears and I need to start again. I have tried using a different user and the same thing happens. I have also noticed that in purchases the application says to install but in the application page it says it is downloaded. I have spoken with apple support and they seem to be stunned and not sure what is going on! Help does anyone else have any suggestions, its an expensive app and I hope apple is prepared to refund if I cant download it.

When you're having problems with multiple user accounts, it can be an indication that the startup disk needs repairing or there's not enough free space on the disk to install apps.
Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk
If the repairs are necessary, instructions here > Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
For disk space. Look at the bottom of the Disk Utility window. You'll see Capacity and Available
Make sure there's at least 15% free space.

My AppStore id is my apple id n password which is good when purchasing. But when I am updating from update option it ask for a password. The user id I see there is not mine, it's different. How do I change that to my apple Id? Please help me resolve .....

My AppStore id is my apple id n password which is good when purchasing. But when I am updating from update option it ask for a password. The user id I see there is not mine, it's different. How do I change that to my apple Id? Please help me resolve this issue. I have tried resetting it but nothing... Either I'm doing something wrong or....

I believe the issue is with the Apple ID that was used to purchase the App. If you download an App that was purchased under a different Appple ID then all updates will also be linked to the original purchaser's Apple ID. Your Apple ID is the the same ID as your iTunes, iCloud, etc. Some folks use different ID for the different Apple sites. No need for that One ID for all Apple Sites, and if someone else buys an App using their ID and they(you) download that App onto your device and that App requires an update it will ask for the purchasers Apple ID. This happens a lot when folks sell their iPad or give it to someone else and leave some purchased(free) Apps on the iOS device. You cannot change the original ID the App was purchased under. A suggestion would be if someone else has an App that you like but do not want to pay for use their ID or in the future have them gift the App to you.

POP3 -Keep asking for user name & Password

Hi,
We have exchange 2003 server with Service pack 2. We have user who check their mails through Outlook 2003, Outlook web access & some users are using POP3 to download the messages.
Since last few weeks, we are getting the complained that when engineers are trying to configured users account in Outlook with POP3 configuration, its keep asking for user name & password. But with same user name & passwords user is able to check their mail through Outlook web access.
In some of our site, users are able to download messages through pop3 account but this account was configured long back.
Kindly advise.

HI,
This is happening mainly when
1. user changed his password through Outlook web access next time its keep poping up for password & it will not accept the new passord.
2. if user is using OWA & when we try to configured his mail in Outlool with POP3 .
See if i remove exchange attributes from user's account & then delete the users from AD & Recreated with same user name, Password & reconnected to that user to his old mailbox, it;s work fine.
Regards,
Chetan
POP3 is enabled by default for all the users.

Ditto. Guest accounts shouldn't have a password. No way to enter one in System Prefs...

I need to reset my Apple ID on my ipad. My internet provider was bought by another company, so my user name changed. So now, when I go into itunes or the app store, I cannot update anything because it asks for my password, but not my apple id.

My internet provider changed, so my username changed. I need to be able to reset my appleid NOT my password. I can't find a way to do this. Here is a scenario. I want to go into the app store to update apps, so a box pops up asking for my password, but shows my appleid as the old name. I have reset the appleid on my mac and itunes at home and works there, but when I try to go into things on the ipad, it automatically comes up with a window asking for my password, but for my old id name. I went to the manage your id section, but it won't let me in because it wants the password to the old name. So I think I need to reregister the ipad with my new userid. Icloud, Itunes, app store, everything like that won't let me in because they still show the user id as the old name.

On the iPad - go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID. Tap on your old ID and sign out. Then sign in with your changed/new ID.

HT201240 I just got my Mac yesterday. My kids want to access sites that need the adobe player. When I try and download it asks for a password. I do not even remember setting one up? How do i find out what it is?

FYI this is the legitimate Flash Player installer:
This one is bogus:
As X423424X wrote do not download it from any site other than the one he linked.
Adobe does not require a password to download the Flash installer. Generally speaking passwords are not required to download software, unless you must register with the website so as to log in. In that case you should never use the same name and password you use to administer your Mac.
