TS3276 Mail keeps asking for my password. How can I resolve this?

Each time I open Mail it asks for my password. I open Mail Preferences and save the password but it looks as though it is never saved. How can I resolve this? I can still access the mail account - I just dont want to have to enter the password every time I open the application.

Who is the provider of this email account? It can be very hard to distinguish between a PW prompt instigated by the Incoming server vs the Outgoing server. What are the recommended ports to use for each from this provider?

HT1267 keeps asking for voicemail passwords how can I remember all these passwords

Phone keeps asking for a voicemail password, i cannot remember all these passwords and have never set one up what do I do..the phone is a 4s upgrade from 4

If you never set up a voice mail password, you need to contact your carrier and find out what the default they use is (often it is the last 4 digits of your phone number, but it varies vy carrier, so call them and ask).

Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

Try removing your case... it might be interferring with the proximity sensor.

My yahoo mail keeps asking for my password, even though I entered it correctly.

after my mail comes up and before I can read any emails, the system goes to a screen asking for my password. I enter my password, go back to mail, and before I can read any mail, the screen asking for my password pops up again and does it all over again.

I cannot get the verification email to arrive in my inboxes and when I choose the security question options it tells me my birthdate is incorrect and I know it it not Help trying to reset my iPad to factory settings and keeps asking for a password I can't

I am trying to put my ipad back to factory settings and it keeps asking for my original Id which is the reason I am needing to reset it. When I try to do this via password prompts it asks for my date of birth which I enter correctly and it tells me it is incorrect and then trying the email route this does not send any emails to the registered accounts I set up originally - help!!

My guess is all the issues are probably related and fall back to malware.
AVG is probably correct in identifying malware. So I suggest you try some cleaning tools other than Emsisoft .
ones I use (all of them one after the other until I find one that can cope) are;
Roguekiller http://www.adlice.com/softwares/roguekiller/
Malwarebytes anti malware Free http://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/var2/confirm/
ESET online scanner http://www.eset.com/int/home/products/online-scanner/
So first create a clean boot in Windows using Microsoft's instructions https://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135?wa=wsignin1.0 and then run the anti malware applications.
My outside looking in guess is that malware has set itself up as an internet proxy and is is downloading copies of itself and other malware, blocking some mail port as times as downloading more malware is more important, and probably breaking your tivo as well..
Try the malware programs first. If that does not work I will try and talk you through some logging to see what is happening.

Mail keeps asking for a Password for an email I don't have

When I was setting up mail I accidentally entered the wrong email.
There is a box that keeps coming up, five of six times a day asking for the incorrect email's password.
I went in to preferences and deleted the incorrect account, but the box still pops up throughout the day.
Does anyone know how to make this thing stop coming up?

Hi Seth,
I'd check your Outgoing Servers to see if there are some old ones there...
Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Outgoing Server (SMTP)>Edit Server list
Highlight the bad one & click on the tiny minus icon.

Mail keeps asking for a password to a deleted account

I haven't used Mail in a while. The last time was when I was trying out my free MobileMe trial. I just opened Mail, deleted the MobileMe account, and created a gMail one. Now every time Mail checks for new mail it asks me for the MobileMe password, even though the account has been deleted. I have been into the Keychain and deleted anything that looks like it could relate. Any suggestions?

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
Please open System Preferences/MobileMe panel -- what if any references to the prior MobileMe account do you find there?
In Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information, click on the arrows beside the name of the Outgoing Server, and choose Edit Server List. Then remove any reference to the SMTP for MobileMe from the list of servers if found there.

Repeatedly asks for apple id how can i fix this?

how can i get my ipod touch to stop asking me for my apple id whenever i want to play something?

Try going to Settings>iTunes and App store and sign out and sign back in.
Next try syncing with iTunes.
Then
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Macbook pro 15 inch crashes every other day for no reason, how can i resolve this issue

my macbook pro is connected to an external monitor and i use apple key board and magic mouse. for the past few weeks, it has been crashing almost continously (at least once or twice a week) and i have to restart the computer. this has never happened before and i haven't added any new software to it that i may think can cause the problem.
what can i do to check on this and how can i fix it.
thanks

By crash do you mean there is a four language screen asking you to restart?
If not, then that really isn't a crash, and you need to learn how to break out of the issue in question.
If it is, then what you are witnessing is a kernel panic*:
http://www.macmaps.com/kernelpanic.html
Your Console application will have System log files which may indicate what application or driver was trying to launch at the time of the panic.
The non-kernel panic pseudo crashes come in a variety of flavors:
1. Spinning colorwheel as a result of a single hung application.   Try command-option-escape to bring the force quit window to force quit the offending application which usually will be highlighted in red. Select it, and click force quit. Your data will not be saved from the saved app, but it does say the application in question may have run out of disk space*:
http://www.macmaps.com/diskfull.html
Or is incompatible with some driver or operating system data on your machine.
2. Spinning colorwheel as a result of a system optimizer. Don't trust any application that cleans system cache. Doesn't matter if it is browser cache, but system cache should be only fixed in troubleshooting situations, on
backed up systems*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
3. Spinning colorwheel as a result of a driver issue.   If the driver in question hasn't been tested with the operating system, it may fail to work when certain peripherals are connected.
4. Frozen mouse pointer with same symptoms as 1,2,3.
5. Splotched pattern under mouse pointer.   Generally means a hardware issue with the graphics chip.
6. Unexpectedly quitting applications or frozen applications as a result of no kernel panic nor compatibility issue. Thsoe may happen if they run into bad RAM without panicking*:

AIR-LAP1242AG-K9 could not join a 2106 WLC: i ma getting ready for a deployment, how can i resolve this?

Hi,
I setup a mini wireless LAN network lab with a not for resale 2106 wireless lan controller and a sales air-lap1242ag access point. I do not have a DHCP and DNS in my lab environment. I have configured the WLC with the basic configuration using the CLI wizard, i also configured the WLC as a DHCP server for clients that will be connecting to the APs associated to the controller.
I powered up the AP and connect the ethernet port directly to the controller, the controller issued an IP address to the AP, the AP downloaded a new operating system from the controller but failed to join the controller.
I check both debug message on the controller console and the trap messages on the controller's GUI and it say the AP could not download a configuration from the controller and it is beacuse of invalid license. Below is the trap message:
Configuration Phase Statistics
Requests Received
Responses Sent
Unsuccessful Request Processed
Reason For Last Unsuccessful Attempt
Last Successful Attempt Time
Last Unsuccessful Attempt Time
Last Error Summary
Last AP Message Decryption Failure
Last AP Connection Failure
Last Error Occurred
Last Error Occurred Reason
Last Join Error Timestamp
Also, I tried to log into the GUI of the AP using the both the username and password ''Cisco'' but I cannot get into the device. I can only get in through the CLI. In the CLI, almost all the commands I enter gives an error the it is disabled. I don't know what to do any more, I want to know if the access point is faulty or i am not doing the right thing.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for the quick response.
The controller is running firmware version:
Software Version 6.0.199.4
Emergency Image Version 6.0.199.4
The AP can ping the Management IP address of the controller successfully via console. I have also entered in the AP the WLC's Management IP address information and it is still the same. Below is the message I'm getting on the console of the AP it self:
*Jul 9 13:06:09.803: %CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: Go join a capwap controller

I will also like to know if AIR-LAP1242AG is compatible with WLC 2106 controller.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, i really need to resolve this issue in my LAB now so that I don't go to my customer site to fumble.
thanks in advance.

Mail Keeps Asking For Keychain Password - Possible Solution

Hi
I am a Mac newbie and all was going well until I played around with the Keychain settings and then, despite putting everything on Keychain back to how it was, I kept getting requests from Mail to enter my password.
Having tried every other solution offered by the various help sites and web forums (this problem seems quite common), I finally went for the deleting the mail account solution that (fingers crossed) has now worked for over a day, so I am posting it here in case it is useful to someone else:
-     First I deleted the two keychain password references to Mail that were in the Keychain Access list (POP and SMTP) and made sure Keychain settings       were all back to how they were originally.
-     Then I archived all my mail and mail folders - was easy to do and then reload again later.
-     Then I deleted my email account; rebooted; went back into mail and went through the process of setting up my account again.
-     Reloaded my mail messages and folders and tidied things up to how they were.
-     Let keychain set up the mail passwords again by sending and receiving a test message to myself.
Hey presto! Everything now appears back to how it was, without those annoying requests for passwords for Mail.
I am pretty sure this problem arose due to me changing the keychain settings, even though I put everything back to how it was (or at least I think I did!) it's almost as though there is a bug that makes Mail think the settings have not been changed back to "normal" again.
Hope this help's someone (took me about half a day to fix this as all sorts of solutions are offered by the help sites and forums, but none fixed the problem until I went through the procedure above).

Still, that was quite funny....!
Erm, I'm still having this problem along with several others that have gone unanswered on here about why Mac Mail decides to keep all my trash, junk, sent, but clears out the INBOX every 5 or 7 days. No server problems, No settings changed... For a computer I bought to make my life easier, its sure making me work exceedingly hard for it. I'm this close to going back to Windows. DON'T LET ME DO IT!!!!!!!!! Helllllp!!!!
