Trying to log into the SMTP account failed.

I am traveling with my new MacBook Pro, and when trying to send email, I get the following message:
"Trying to log into this SMTP account failed. Please make sure the username and password are correct."
I have four accounts, and it happens to all four accounts including my .mac account. Receiving email on these accounts through Mail is no problem. There is only a problem with sending it. These accounts work from work and at home and other places, wireless or otherwise. They only do not work from hotels. Very strange. Any ideas?

I have two facebook accounts availible when I click the facebook icon in aperture it tries to log into the disabled account. It doesn't give me any option to continue making an album for the enabled account. Why?

I have two facebook accounts availible when I click the facebook icon in aperture it tries to log into the disabled account. It doesn't give me any option to continue making an album for the enabled account. Why?

I suppose I could delete it, but the whole point of multiple accounts is so I can post to either. One is mine, one is my wife's. If it is not enabled why would I need to log into it to post to my own account. The system has no problem associating existing albums with my account, I is only failing to allow me to choose only my account to create an new one. It is clearly designed to handle multiple accounts, but seems to have a bug directing it to ask for the password for a disabled account instead of allowing selection of and posting to the enabled one.

Lion hangs when trying to log into the administrator account.

Hello, everyone. Just tonight I tried to log into my administrator account, but when I try to, it opens to a white screen and beachballs. I ran disk utility, rebuilt permissions, etc., but no luck logging in. Has anyone else had a similiar issue?

Hi, Nanotechie1992. I have another piece of the puzzle. I recently bought a Magic Trackpad a few days ago, and it has been working well. However, just a few minutes ago I disconnected it and tried to log in as an administrator. The cursor appeared normal and moved around normally with my Magic Mouse. However, it was just a plain white background, no menu, no dock, no icons. I suppose I can try to reinstall my ram cards, but I have had them since I bought the computer a few years ago.

When trying to log into my bank account, I always get a Challenge Page even though I check the box to register my computer as a private computer.

When trying to log into my bank accounts (2), I always get a security Challenge Page even though I have repeatedly checked the box to register my computer as a private computer. When I attempt to get into these same two accounts using Internet Explorer, I skip the Challenge Page and go directly to the Log In page. What settings do I need to change in Firefox so that I don't get the Challenge Page every time?

I have had exactly this problem - Firefox - version 11, but when I updated all my plug-ins (go to Customize Firefox - about halfway down - '''''Check your plugins''''') and restarted Firefox the problem vanished. Hope this helps as this seems to be a fairly large issue.

I am trying to log into the itunes store for the first time and it asks me to review my account so I do but every time I get to the bit where you fill in your bank details and address it tells me my payment method was declined and that its not valid?

Same here and this is driving me crazy. I can buy, but can't upgrade. Grrr.

I am trying to log into my apple account and it is telling me my account is disabled. How can i get it enabled again? I have tried resetting my password and that did not work.

I have tried to log into my apple account so I can download my songs onto my iPhone. It keeps telling me my apple id is disabled. I've tried resetting my password but that did not work. How can I fix this?

After resetting your password you might then need to log out of your account on your device by phone on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if it's on iOS 6) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I cannot log into the oracle account using GNOME interface

I'm receiving the following message when trying to log into the oracle OS account with the GNOME interface turned on:
GDM could not write to your authorization file. This could mean that you are out of disk space or that your home directory could not be opened for writing. In any case, it is not possible to log in. Please contact your system administrator.
I can successfully ssh into the oracle account via a terminal window session.

Some searching on the internet indicated that the .Xauthority file was the problem.
I noticed that there was no .Xauthority file in the /home/oracle directory. I logged into the oracle OS account via a terminal session and issued the command mkxauth -c. This created an .Xauthority file in my /home/oracle directory. The file has the following permissions which look like they match other hosts we have the Oracle Database running on:
-rw------- 1 oracle oinstall 265 2011-03-08 13:32 /home/oracle/.Xauthority
Any heal is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the replies. I obviously had something screwed up in my environment in terms of file permissions.
I decided that since I am new to Oracle VM and management of the Oracle Enterprise Linux VM templates, and that this was a new instance of the OEL5 template installation, I would start over. So I unzipped the OEL5 template, copied over my vm.cfg file which configures the template instance and brought up a new copy of the OEL5 VM instance. I then logged into it as root, changed the oracle account password and started the GNOME interface with telinit 5 command.
I was then able to log in successfully to the oracle account via the GNOME interface.
Thanks for the replies.

HT4157 I am unable to log into the "View Account",

I am unable to log into the "View Account" on my iPad, I have tried to Reset the account but never get sent an e-mail. (I know what e-mail address it was originally setup with, but I did try all 3 just to be sure). I also not not able to reset the Subscription, for some reason that is not an option anymore - It was an option last week, I filled out the subscription to activate my connection, once I did the 3G went a way and that is when things started.
Just some other background - the same day this started, I received error trying to watch unrented movies on my iPad. When I tried to start watching, I received an error - "Unable to Open". I am not sure this is related or not.
I have since reset the entire iPad, (Reset all settings and Data) thinking this would fix the issue but no lick.
Network is AT&T
IOS is 5.1.1 (9B206)
64 GB
Any suggestions ?

I have had a similar problem trying to view my account with AT&T, it could be the AT&T server is down for viewing your account.

In regard to Time Machine. I have two accounts one is an admin account, the other is a standard user account. When I implement Time Machine when I am logged into the Admin account, is the standard user also backed up?

in regard to Time Machine.
I have two accounts on one Macbook Pro running OS 10.6.8. One account is an admin account, the other is a standard user account.
When I initially implemented Time Machine I was logged into the Admin account. I allowed Time Machine to erase the drive and backup the computer. Is the standard user account contents also backed up?
Also after I completed the Time Machine backup session, I turned off Time Machine and removed the portable hard drive. I plan to return in to Time Machine after being away from the portable hard drive for approximately a month. After a short interruption of approximately one month, when the Macbook Pro is reconnected and Time Machine is turned back on, will Time Machine create a new instance of a backup? WIll the back up contain the standard user account changes?

Time Machine backs up by default all the user accounts.
When you reconnect the backup drive after one month, Time Machine will do an incremental backup and it might take a while minutes to hours depending on how much has been changed. With a gap of a month, Time Machine will have to do a lengthier than normal survey of both drives to see what has changed, so it might take some time preparing for the backup. The backup will include everything that has changed since the previous one.

I am currently managing 20 iPads on a macbook. I would like to manage the same 20 iPads on a new macbook pro. I have logged into the iTunes account on the new machine and see our apps but not the devices. How do i get the devices to be shown on new comp?

Has anyone used apple cpnfigurator for this purpose?

After Time Machine backs up my file vault files (after logging out), when I next log into the user account it beachballs permanently during log in.

After Time Machine backs up my file vault files (after logging out), when I next log into the user account it beachballs permanently during log in. The backup was successful, as I had to restore after this issue last time. Hard resetting doesn't resolve the issue. Is there a Time Machine setting that I should be aware of?
I have 2011 13" MBP, 10.6.8 and use an external hard drive connected via USB for my Time Machine backups.
Thanks

I was able to get it to work. Thanks for your help. It's unfortunate the two applications do not work well together. This is what I did:
1) Safe boot and logged into the affected user (since the whole issue damaged the account's system settings).
2) Turned off File Vault in System Preferences. I needed to make some space on the hard drive first since apparently the total free space on the hard drive has to equal or exceed the amount of data currently in the file vault. I deleted some files and moved others to the Admin account. This whole process took awhile.
3) Finally, just restarted and logged in. The next time machine backup seems to be a significant backup, I assume because it's backing up the user account in a different way now that File Vault is turned off.
Thanks again!

HT4528 My app store shows I need to update the Backup Assistant. I have tried to log into my Apple account and used every possible login I can think of. Apple doesn't recognize anything I put in. I have changed my password/ID at least 20 times. What c

My iphone App Store indicates that I need to update my Backup Assistant. I have tried about 30 times to log into my Apple account using every login I can think of and it continually tells me it is invalid or incorrect. I have changed my password/ID at least 20 times. What can I do?

Use the correct login/password that the app was purchased with.

HT4314 I am trying to log into the Game Centre App and it keeps telling me I could not connect to Game Centre Server.....it has been like this for 4 days. What's going on?

I have been trying to log onto the Game Centre App to try and combine my son's Hay Day accounts (he somehow has 2 of them now although we used the same Apple ID when we set up his new iPad mini at Christmas). It keeps saying that we cannot access the server. Anyone else have this problem?
Also, why is it that when I set up his account on the new device it game me a different user name?

You can try here:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
it could be a Apple problem since some other uses have reported the same problem today.

HT5085 Trying to log into my iTunes account and keep getting "unknown error occurred (-50)

I am trying to log into itunes and everything I get this message, what do I do?

Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. An incorrectly set default packet size can cause this error. Contact the software manufacturer that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows:How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

I removed registration of a product on one Apple ID, and am trying to register under another. After removing product from profile, I log into the other account and try to add. It says it's already registered. How do I get all products on one ID?

Does anyone know how to consolidate all products that I own under one Apple ID? I have removed registration, but when I try to re-register the SN, it says it's already associated to another Apple ID.

Your best bet would be to try resetting the password to the account that you would like to use via iForgot
Once you log in to that account change the email address to anything, it can even be fake its just a placeholder
After you do that you will be free to change your old email address on your appleID to the new one that is now free to be used as it is no longer attached to the other account.
