System preferences: Internet accounts: Facebook username or password incorrect

First I was unable to connect iPhoto to Facebook. Then I deleted my Facebook connection from Internet Accounts under System Preferences. When I tried to add it back I get:

I am using the correct email address and password.
Any suggestions?

Dansuz1, Welcome to the discussion area!
The Internet Connect is indicating that encryption is enabled on the network and the password you are using is incorrect.
I know the base stations user name and password and can contact through the admin utility.
That is a different password than the one used for encryption.

Mail app and System Preferences--Internet Accounts keeps crashing

I can't figure out how to stop mail from crashing and I am running OS X Yosemite. Some people say that you can remove the internet account, but when I go to system preferences, It always crashes the internet accounts section. I also can' find the com.apple.mail plist in library. Does anyone know how to fix this?
-Guy

Do a backup.
Quit Mail.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail. Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

How do I change my Apple ID on my iMac. It is showing an old ID in System Preferences/Internet Accounts and System Preferences/iCloud

My iPhone, iPad and iMac Safari access to the Apple Store and iCloud are fine and accept my new Apple ID. Mail constantly prompts me for a password with a box that shows my old Apple ID. I'm guessing that somewhere on the iMac I can change or delete the old Apple ID? It's not in the Keychain.
iMac OS X 10.10
Mail 8

Thanks Eric. If I try, I get a box with the statement:
Your iCloud account couldn't be removed at this time.
Mail was unable to delete [email protected] (It just shows this as normal black type without the email envelope) Relaunch Mail then sign our of iCloud again.
It shows an OK box.
The Apple ID shown is of course, the old one, that I am trying to change on the iMac. On my iPhone, iPad, the Apple Store and iCloud via safari, only my new Apple ID is shown.
I tried to insert an image of this scenario but I couldn't insert the chosen 138KB tiff image.

I have iCloud on my MacBook Air. Trying to set up icloud on another device- MacBook Pro. I have OSx version 10.5.8 on the Pro. The iCloud does not appear on my system preference/ Internet

How do I get the iCloud icon to appear in my System Preference/Internet & Wireless section to turn it on. Again I only have Mobile Me icon. When I check for updating of software it says there are no updates. I currently have OS X Version 10.5.8 on the MacBook Pro that needs to have iCloud.

iCloud requires OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher. If you’re running 10.6.8 or earlier you will need to upgrade to either Lion higher in order to set up iCloud on your Mac. First check to see if your system meets the system requirements to upgrade.
Lion system requirements are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Mountain Lion requirements are shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5444.
Mavericks requirements are shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842.
If you can run Mavericks, you can purchase an upgrade from the Mac App Store. If you can only run Lion or Mountain Lion, contact the online store in your country and purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store.
After upgrading, you will find iCloud in System Preferences>iCloud on your Mac, and can set it up as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.
Before upgrading, you may want to check the compatibility of your existing programs by checking here: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table.

Username or password incorrect after creating new account, tried everything

I deleted the old email account and started again. Thunderbird created the email address account, but when I try to use it, I get the message "Username or password incorrect" I can access the email account from the ISP website ok, so the login and password are correct.
I switched the pc off and restarted, same problem.
Help really appreciated.
Regards
Drachsi

This company seems to have a different password for accessing mail in the email center (I assume this is the webmail account) and another email password for using with Pop mail forwarding with email clients like Thunderbird. So you should have one password for log to email centre and another set up specifically for pop mail accounts using email clients. As account server settings are correct and you have checked that the username is the full email address and you have Pop forwarding enabled on the webmail account. This issue really sounds like the password is not correct. It sounds like you are trying to use the email center password which will not work.

When I sign into my mobile me account the username and password is not recognised what do I do?

- Go to settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out and sign into your account.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

Cannot Get Mail Username or Password incorrect even if info are correct

I have a Gmail account witch use to work on previous iPhone system (1.X). Now that I upgrade to (2.x) the mail app seems to be completely crazy. It tells me that my information are incorrect (password or username). I reset my email account probably 20 times, reset network preference 20 times even changed password in my gmail account. I tried to set my email account with POP protocol or IMAP protocol but nothing works. I've been googling for maybe a day and try many possibilities that you can find on internet.
for example:
create new email account: NO SUCESS.
change Gmail password: NO SUCESS.
Restore iPhone: NO SUCESS.
Restore network setting (iphone): NO SUCESS.
set up with POP or IMAP: NO SUCESS.
Initially sync mail settings from computer in iTunes: NO SUCESS
Manually enter the mail account settings directly on iPhone: NO SUCESS
Deleting and then manually recreating your account on your iPhone: NO SUCESS
What to do????
P.S: I have a Yahoo email too I can receive email but can't send anyone.
Gmail or Apple has to wake up.

Hi Claye, you might try navigating to the SMTP settings for your GMail account
and manually re-enter the account;'s username and password in for the
smtp.gmail.com Server.
Folks who have done that today have reported success in getting their GMail
to send properly.
While you are at it, you might also turn ON the AT&T SMTP Server shown at the very
bottom of the Secondary Servers list on your iPhone. It is OFF by default and often
helps in areas where you switch networks frequently.

I'm unable to send an email, i get username or password incorrect despite being correct. Has anyone had this problem before and fixed it?

Are you sure the settings are correct? Did you check the outgoing mail server setting? Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

Squirrelmail: Unknown username or password incorrect, using SSL

I'm trying to use SSL for email on Mac OSX Server. It works fine from clients using Mozilla Thunderbird but Squirrelmail won't connect. Using the webmail interface I get "Unknown username or password incorrect" every time I try to login.
I went through the squirrelmail conf.pl script and made sure it had cyrix and that the authentication method matches the one checked in Server Admin. The configtest.php returns info followed by this error:
ERROR: You need the openssl PHP extension to use SMTP/IMAP TLS!
The thing is I've tryed this without SSL and still get the "Unknown username" error. In other words, I'm willing to go without SSL IMAP if it will just get this to work but it seems likely there is some other problem than the missing PHP library.
On php.net it has the following:
To use PHP's OpenSSL support you must also compile PHP --with-openssl[=DIR].
I would rather not diverge from Apple's standard config but why isn't SSL for IMAP assumed in the php config that ships on Mac OSX Server? What is the best way to enable the openssl module of php without breaking anything else? Anyway, where are the php files on Mac OSX server?
Mac mini; iMac G5; PowerMac G3 B&W, Rev1, 400Mhz Mac OS X (10.4.3)

It's just not supported and not needed.
The traffic is local, never hits a network so no need to encrypt the traffic.
I would recommend that you have the IMAP SSL option in ServerAdmin set to "Use" not "Require" so that is allows both port 143 and 993.
Have your imap clients connect to port 993 (ssl). Also have this port open through the firewall if needed.
Your Squirrelmail web site should be set to use HTTPS so it's authentication (actually all content) is encrypted over the public internet.
SquirrelMail config can be configured for regular imap on port 143. And block this port at the firewall.
With this setup, anything traversing the public internet is secured.

ICloud keeps saying username and password incorrect.

One minute fine, now all my devices have the same issue. Cannot Get Mail and then asking for password. Anyone else? Only way to retrieve email is online and the password works. ugh

Same problem here. I just switched to iCloud from MobileMe this weekend and it's been an absolute nightmare. MobileMe always worked fine. Here is what my problems have been so far.
1) After switch to iCloud - Mail.App on Lion worked fine, iPad and iPhone worked fine. Outlook 2010 on Win 7 refused to connect, kept asking me for user name and password. Read like 100 articles of people with same problems. Checked server settings, checked SSL setting, blah blah.. Nothing worked.. Finally, tried the suggestion of setting a new password. Sweet, that worked!! All was well again.
2) Fast forward a day - Outlook 2010 on Win 7 refuses to connect again. iPad, iPhone work, Mail.App gave same error as Outlook once, re-entered password, all was well. I was able to log into iCloud.com and see mail as well. Again, reset my password after hours of screwing with it. All was working again.
3) Last night, checked my mail from my iPhone. )(&$)(&@$)(&!#, Username or password incorrect. WRONG.. Go into settings, set my password, it comes back with the three checks for validating the password, it can see my storage, everything else iClould related works just fine. Open mail, bad username or password.
4) Woke up this morning, same problem still. Now, if I go to iCloud.com and log in, I get a failure to open mail if I try to use mail, just get an error that mail has failed to load and do I want to report it to Apple. Still gives same error on iPhone. Yet, get this.. Works just fine in Outlook 2010. Can send and receive mail no problem. I tried deleting my account on the phone and readding it, turning mail off and on. Everything works except mail still.
HELP!!!!! This blows...

Is iCloud username and pass the same as my apple ID and pass? I keep getting username or password incorrect for Icloud

Is my iCloud username and password the same as my apple id and pass? I keep getting username or password incorrect when trying to use I loud email

The password is the same, the mail address has to be an iCloud address (Mac, Me or iCloud) which may or may not be the same as the address you use to log into iCloud.

System Preference/User Accounts Crashes

System preferences crashes when opening "Accounts" or when using parental controls for one user, but not other. Would it help to include the bug report generated upon crashing?

Sent bug report to apple, but not sure it went out.

Back up all data to at least two different storage devices, if you haven't already done so. The backups can be made with Time Machine or with a cloning tool such as Disk Utility. Preferably both. You must be certain that you can restore everything to the state it's in now.
Boot into Recovery, launch Disk Utility, and erase the startup volume. This operation will destroy all data on the volume, so you had be better be sure of your backups. Install OS X. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
When you reboot, you'll be prompted to go through the initial setup process. That’s when you import the data from one of your backups. For a walkthrough, see here:
Using Setup Assistant
Import only the original administrator account. Also import Applications and other files. Test the system when it's up and running. If it seems normal, use Migration Assistant to import the other user accounts, one at a time.
How to use Migration Assistant to transfer files from a Time Machine backup
After each one, back up and test.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with networks that require any kind of authentication other than a WPA or WPA2 Personal password.

I am trying to activate root account on my MAC. The directions I've seen do not match what is in System Preference for Accounts or Users

I am trying to activate the root account on my new Mac Book Pro. The instructions that I have found do not match what I have in System Preferences. What is the process when using Users and Groups. When I click on Join the Network Account Server- Open Directory Utility I don't see a option to activate root user as the instructions say at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1528
OS X Lion
From the Apple menu choose System Preferences....
From the View menu choose Users & Groups.
Click the lock and authenticate as an administrator account.
Click Login Options....
Click the "Edit..." or "Join..." button at the bottom right.
Click the "Open Directory Utility..." button.
Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
Choose Enable Root User from the Edit menu.
Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields, then click OK.

Do you mean you cannot select "Enable Root User" from the "Edit" menu as shown below?
Why do you think you need to enable the root user? I've never needed it in the history of OS X.
