Wants password even though it's got it

I noticed since I loaded Entourage that Mail's been acting a little goofy. It'll prompt me for the server to use when sending a message and sometimes ask me for the password even though it's stored in the Account settings and on the keychain.
I've since deleted the mail accounts from Entourage but it still does this.
Any ideas here?
thanks

cool. There was some problems there related to the email accounts so it looks like that was the culprit.
All fixed.
Thank you for your help.

  • When I go to certain web sites it automaticallly puts in my password even though I didn't ask the site to save it how can I get it to stop?

    Example is facebook as soon as I get to the log in page it fills in my password even though I have never asked it to remember my password. I am afraid to do other sites on my mac because others use it and i don't want them accessing my bank accounts. How do i make sure that it won't?

    Some sites use cookies to remember login details. Delete the cookies for the site, and when you next log in check for a setting similar to "Remember me" or "Always keep me logged in" and make sure that it is not selected.

  • Since upgrading to osx 10.8.2 sleep requires password even though i have set to open automatically.

    Since upgrading to osx 10.8.2 on my mid 2009 Mac Book Pro 15 inch, It requires me to enter my password even though automatic login is turned off. It never required this before. Why is it doing this now since the upgrade?

    Try reinstall iPhoto:
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.
    If that fails then I think you need to reinstall the OS.

  • My Mail application is rejecting my password even though I'm putting it in correctly. Mail is working fine on my iPad and iPhone but not my iMac so it must be something to do with the Mail settings on my desktop. My software is up to date.  Can you help?

    I have an iMac, operating system 10.7.4 with up to date software. My mail application is rejecting my password even though I know I am putting it in correctly. I have an ipad and iphone and the mail application is working fine on them. On my desktop however I cannot receive or send mail. I think it must be something to do with the settings but cannot work out what. I have contacted BT who provides my email and internet. As I have another email address with them that is working correctly they believe it is a problem with mail rather than with them. Please can you help?

    OK Vicky, good clues...
    See if this helps...
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over. See if there are duplicates, should be one for Incoming & one for Outgoing.
    Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
    If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

    After updating my  iPad to IOS 8.1.2, I am unable to access the Cloud with my password, even though it worked on my Macmini.  I changed the password and it still does not work on the iPad.  What can I do to get iPad to recognize my Apple ID/password account?

    I would be helpful to know what those "basic steps" you have already tried are, but lacking that information:
    Settings app > iTunes & App Stores - sign out of your AppleID
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
    Sign back into your AppleID (same location as noted above)

    The amount of RAM is not dependant on the operating system. It is all about the model of you Mac.
    10.6.8 is the version of OS X that is installed on your system. It has no real baring on the amount of RAM that CAN be installed.
    Personally I have never had good luck with Corsair RAM. I have always had good luck with Crucial and Kingston.

    This concerns my apple tv. Cant get it to recognise my user id or password even though I've repeatedly verified it on my computer.

    I was having the same problem. After reading a few threads, restore your Apple TV to its original factory settings (approximately 15-20 minutes) and try logging in again. It just worked perfect for me!

  • I can't update the software on my iPad 3 even though I've got enough storage space

    I can't update the software on my iPad 3 even though I've got enough storage space, can you help? It is to update to IOS 7.0.4

    Storage space on iCloud is not a substitute for storage space on the iPad. You need sufficient storage space on your iPad to accomodate the download. How much Available space do you have? Go to Settings>General>Usage
    How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.
    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

    itunes will not recognise my encryption password even though it has been reset. cant restore to last backup?

    I'm not aware of a way to reset the password for an encrypted backup. If you have forgotten the password for an encrypted backup, your only alternative is to put the phone in recovery mode and restore it as a new device. Your data will be lost.

  • Not remembering passwords even though "remember my passwords" is checked in security

    I recently updated to Firefox 4.0. After that, websites are not remembering my username and password even though, "Remember my site passwords" is checked in Security.
    Looking for resolve.

    cor-el -
    I mean that if I go to a site and enter a username and password, I am not prompted to remember the information and if I am, when I close Firefox and reopen and go back to the site, the information is blank, nor does it appear if I start to type the first few characters.
    If I go into the password manager to look for sites that should have password information there is nothing in the box.
    I am going to try to be specific regarding my settings, please keep in mind that this is how they have been set since I started using Firefox and up until I upgraded to 4.0 I had not problem.
    *In Privacy the settings that I have always had checked are:
    Remember download history
    Remember search and form history
    Accept cookies from sites
    Accept third-party cookies
    Keep until: I close Firefox
    Clear history when Firefox closes
    *In Security settings that I have always had checked under Passwords are:
    Remember passwords for sites
    Also, when I select under View -> Toolbar: Menu Bar and/or Bookmarks Toolbar once I close out of Firefox and then reopen it, they are no longer visible.
    The option for Permanent Private Browsing is not checked.
    Look forward to any further information anyone can offer.

    From your description it sounds like your Hotmail account was compromised. Does anyone else know the password and could they have changed it?
