TS3276 Icloud says my email password in incorrect

I've used Apple email, e.g me.com and icould.com for a few years.  Recently I get an error saying my passord is incorrect.  It asks me to reset my password and when I do and it accepts my password, I try to log into Icloud and it says the same things again.  Help!!

Are you able to log in at http://appleid.apple.com with the passowrd?
When you say "I try to log into Icloud" is that at www.icloud.com or through the Mail App?

  • Why does ipad say my email password is incorrect?

    Why does ipad say my email password is incorrect when I have reconfirmed it multiple times?

    It could be that another setting that you entered is incorrect. Review all settings. Sometimes it is easier to delete the account from the iPad and reenter all seetings.

  • ICloud says username or password is incorrect

    Hi, usually I don't have very many problems with my Apple devices but one came up. It says the username or password for iCloud is incorrect and at the top it says Cannot Get Mail. Can anyone help me with this?
    Thanks

    Hi - I'm getting the same symptoms, on my iPad:
    Cannot Get Mail. The user name or password for "iCloud" is incorrect
    Also have an authentication error on my Mac trying to get into Mail and finally the most worrying when I log into iCloud in a browser it can't load my mail.  Another error message and the offer to submit a report to Apple.  I can't get into my mail on any device?

  • I can no longer send or receive iMessages on my iphone 5. When I try to sign on to my iCloud account it says that my password is incorrect. i have changed my password four times and it still says i am entering the wrong password.

    I really can't comprehend the logic that leads to believe that password for old apple id will come to e-mail for new id. Buy may be I just misunderstood something. Contact Apple for assist with password retrieval. If you can verify yourself as account owner they may be able to help you.

  • Why will sync not synchronize my information between devices after saying that the server was incorrectly configured and then saying that my password was incorrect?

    I've recently started having this issue within the last few days. I started getting error messages saying that the sync server was incorrectly configured.
    So I reset my sync data and then attempted to re-establish connectivity between my devices. Sync is now saying that my password is incorrect. I've reset my password twice and after each password reset I am getting the same error message saying that my password is incorrect. I should note that both times I double checked the password entry to rule out any fat-fingering lol.
    Does anybody have any other information about this? I am wondering if a reinstall of Firefox will be necessary...thanks for any help you can provide! (:

    It sounds like there are a couple things going on here.  First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
    Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance.  Once you find this, make sure the service is started. 
    If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error.  If you get an error, post the error message your hitting.  If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect.  If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
    name in the connection dialog.  Ex:  "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name.  However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format.  Ex:  COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
    is the instance name you set during install).
    You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install.  Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
    recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.

  • Cannot access iTunes Store from iPhone 4. Message says 'Your iTunes password was incorrect. Please try again'. I have tried resetting the password on my macbook

    Cannot access iTunes Store from iPhone 4. Message says 'Your iTunes password was incorrect. Please try again'. I have tried resetting the password on my macbook. What should I do?

    I'm having the same problem as well.  I use keychain access often to remind me of my passwords and was happy (initially) to see one for "iphone backup".  When I entered it I got the same error message: 
    "The password you entered to unlock your iPhone backup file was incorrect. Please try again."
    Really frustrating.
    I searched many ways online, finally I tried "iPhone Backup Unlocker" to help me unlock encrypted backup password efficiently!

  • My AppleTV says my iTunes password is incorrect, but it works on all other Apple devices. Help?

    My AppleTV says my iTunes password is incorrect, but it is correct when logging in via my Macbook, iPad and iPhone.  Do I need to reset it entirely in order for it to work on all 3 devices?  This happened randomly without me logging out and back in, and I've already tried restarting the AppleTV.  I really dont want to have to create another new password.

    Change your router channel number.  Most times this works & is all you have to do.

  • Just today my iphone5 will not get email.  Error says user name/password is incorrect.  I have retyped info but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions?

    My iphone5 can't open email.  Says user name/password incorrect; however, my info has not changed.
    Any suggestions

    I agree. The iPhone is not saying that your email settings are wrong, it is your email. Please check that your email is working using a computer or something else. If it works then delete your account on your iPhone and set it up again.
    I hope that this helps and do please report back.

  • I cannot log in to my emails, it keeps saying that my password is incorrect

    My i pod touch iOS 5.1 will not let me log in to my emails, it keeps telling me that my password and username is incorrect can anyone help?

    It will let me add my email to it, but is always saying the username and password are incorrect, I can save the details and it'll stay there, but if i trying to check my mail it continues saying its not correct and gives me the option to go to settings, which I have done multiple times. I have put my password and username in correctly several times and it still says it's incorrect.
    It started doing this over the weekend, it was fine before that.

  • Ipod touch keeps saying email password is incorrect

    I am trying to set up my son touch. Everytime I enter in his email password it comes back as incorrect. I know it is correct.
    Can someone please help.

    Try deleting the account on the iPod an recreating the account.  I appear there is an error in some of the information you entered.  Frequently it is easier to just recreate the account rather than find the error.

  • Icloud says that my password is wrong but it isn't

    When I try to log into icloud it says that my password is wrong even when it isn't, but when i log into icloud.com it works.
    I have the same problem with the calendar on my mac it says that the password to my email is wrong but when i logged into
    gmail it worked just fine. Does anyone have the same problem, or know how to fix it?
    Edit: I updated my mac after the problem and I can log into all the new features with icloud and gmail

    My guess is you may have signed up for two-step verification? If so, be aware that Apple made some security changes recently (thanks to the celeb photo leaks). Many third party apps now require app-specific passwords, the goal of which is so that you are not using your master iCloud password with third party apps, where security may be lower than what Apple expects.
    What was confusing for me is that, unlike a couple of messages in the last 2 weeks (Mail and one other I can't remember), this particular message I started receiving today did NOT mention an "app-specific password is required". It just said my iCloud password was incorrect (and I verified that it WAS correct). BUT.... the error message had an icon:
    I finally remembered it to be Fantastical, a small (and great, I might add) Calendar app.
    So... you may have a third party app that, like this one, isn't being clear as to what is needed... you just need to get a third party app-specific password. Hope this helps:
    Generate app-specific passwords
    Follow the steps below to generate an app-specific password:
    Go to My Apple ID.
    Select Manage your Apple ID and sign in.
    Select Password and Security.
    Click Generate an App-Specific Password and follow the steps on your screen.
    After you generate your app-specific password, enter or paste it into the password field of the third party app as you would normally.

  • IPad says wrong email password then it's ok

    My iPad was working fine for the past month, no issues. I have three (3) email accounts set up, and they were working just fine. Couple days ago, I got pop up saying the password was incorrect on all three accounts. I ignored it and checked mail on my iMac before going out. Returned 3 hours later, and mail updated and was fine. Today, it did the same thing... Said it couldn't retrieve mail because the password was incorrect. Just checked, and now it's downloading mail ok. What gives? I'm using a brand new Apple AirPort Extreme on my wifi.

    Hi tozol,
    If you have entered a security code that is not recognized as being correct too many times, you will be unable to use that iCloud keychain. You can contact Apple Support who will verify your identity so that you may continue to attempt to use that code. If this is not successful you will need to set up iCloud Keychain again. See this article for information -
    Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain - Apple Support
    See the section titled Can Apple recover my iCloud Security Code?
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
