Why doesn't my apple ID password work when it's correct?

I've been trying to set up my macbook for the past 2hrs and it requests my apple ID password when I want to indicate i'm online on Jabber? But everytime I put in my password, it doesn't accept it. I even changed my apple ID password and it still doesn't work. I don't understand what kind of problem I'm currently facing

TRy going to Jabber's support site

Why doesn'ty old and tested password work now?

Why can't my question just be answered. I'll try a new password, but at 83 years, I've used the current password a long time.

Question is unclear. Please elaborate a little. Say something like: "I tried to log on to..." or "I tried to open a document and..." In any case, this is a Firefox support forum, so if it is related to Firefox maybe someone can help.

Why doesn't masking with gradient layer work when regular gradient does?

If I make a regular gradient over a layer, and make it's opacity 0, and have it on 'shallow knockout', it will knockout the layer below along the 'lines' of the gradient.
However, when I make a gradient layer to do the same, and set opacity down to zero, it doesn't seem to work. Why?

If I was a more advanced artist, then I might know better when I can merge things and not, but right now, I'm a wanna be artist coming from an engineering background, where when I can't grok a whole picture, I break it down in to parts and combine them.
Like when then hand didn't look right or I needed fingers to be relocated, I brok apart the hand and fingers so could relocate them
separately then reshade them after they were in place.
Another set of things i've kept separate (are about 50-80 'hair strands' most of which have a unique color, then have a another
layer for texturing -- painting the texture onto the color made it impossible to change the look of the texture when it was wrong -- and I've changed it several times, because it didn't look right or came up with a better process/way of doing it. Then there's usually an effect layer on top of that to apply shadowing to the strand, give it a bit of 3-dimensionality, and sometimes multiple or add or something with the layers below for emphasis.
On change I made -- which helped, I started with all 3 layers in a group. and 'N' groups... (still have manny like that.. but a new section I started putting base strands in 1, group , then a copy of those layers, blanked and then painted with texture (that's usually brushed on )..., And it seem the only way to apply an effect to one set or the other (or both) is to convert them to smart objects, which still allows editing (but, unfortunately, also stores them in the same file)...
My eye's, have grown.. ll starting out in a few things, then they got more complex... as I didn't know how to really make an eye look good, so I started w/parts...and ended up with 15 layers/eye (not counting groups... things likke eyebase white, irsibase base, iris color, (base is back to pupil layer somewhere above can punch through to a black layer -- at one point (but backed off that approach, even tried to put some nerves and veins on the iris base...)..... then there's the circles of fibers that make up the iris pattern, various
tints for various fluids and transparent structures, .. YIEKS...
Not making any claims about this being a best or even good way, but when you are learning, and especially whern you come from
an engineering background where you are usd to building thigns up out of parts, .. you don't want to weld your parts together before you are at the final product...and even then, ..... what if you want to make a change?!...
Again, newbie-problem more than likely...with too much software engineering background...
Adobe should really have doing part-time work doing product usability/abusability/stability evals... I've pressed it over the limites more than once, and had to redo the way I do things to stay with in its relavtively easy (for me) to hit limits...
Like the one I posted about the layers slowing things down... trivial to rproduce...yet sounds like Adobe never heard of it.
Another parallel problem I ran into/noticed the other day -- when I MOVED, 90% of the layers (somehow they got out of alignment with 10% that were still in the origninal... could be related to a move/cancel bug I run into too often as well, which, fortunately, has a not too difficult workaround). But I moved 90% of those layers, and it only used 2 cpu's out of 6 (and no GPU usage).... took about 45 -60 seconds .. it was a *simple* +/- xy, (no rotations).. so it was something that could have been done in parallel, easily and wouldn't have been compute bound...
The other bug I've run into WAAY too often, is when trying to move an object, if I don't caefully try to nudge it with rotate, or move a
side, 1st, but instead, just put my pen in the middle of the object, to try to drag it -- it almost ALL the time, selects some base layer and moves some large percentage of the layers -- in a visually corrupting way... since when you hit escape to break out of the 'free movement)., the parts don't go back to where they belong and stay offset and random places...
But it's a visual problem only...I think (not sure how my 90% got moved), -- if you SAVE the file, then make a slight change, and then revert to the just saved copy, it cleans all up. so it's just the display that's messed up.
Anyway, slowly over time, all the layers that I originally had a paint or gradient layers surrounded with a vector, I slowly (interspersed with other stuff) converting them to fill/gradient layers which take up comparatively no space. Really speeds up manipulation of those
objects as well...
But it's slowgoing and the interface for creating a gradient to match an existing one is very awkward to use...It's too bad when you
create a gradient or paint layer to BEGIN with, that it's not automatically created as a vector Then, when you start to paint on it,
it creates a layers sized to your painting applied on top of the existing fill layer...would save all the space take by the pixels that were formula driven... Would be so much more powerful -- only storing as bits the things you need to store as bits, rather than defaulting
to 'bits' for everything (which really consumes resources!)...
Personally, Another feature but this might be specialty, or not..... but as I designed my things with parts, it would be nice to be
able to specify XY coordinate tie points between layers -- so if I moved a layer shaped like a stick, attached to another stick,
by 1 point at each end, changing the angle of the first would change the angle of the 2nd like a 'joint' -- not like a solid rod.... that
would be VERY cool!..but not holding my breath on that.
Just getting the current features to work would be nice...like the gradient masking layer... no reason that shouldn't work, but there ya go.
Maybe you know this one (unrelated...)... But I've more than once run out of temporary space (even with usually 130-150GB on my temp store. The thing is, is that adoe doesn't use any of the extra 56GB I have in my Pagefile -- I can't tell it to use more than 100%
of physical memory -- (i.e. so it would use part of the page file). I have 48GB mem, and 56GB pagefile, that's on an SSD., I'd
rather have it page to the SSD before writing temp files to disk...
If it could force pages out, to the pagefile, before resorting to a spill file, would save on space and possible speed depending on
the config... But , eh, C'est la vie.
Meanwhile, I's still ike to figure out how to solve the orignal problem, but I'm beginning to think it looks like a core bug...so it maybe hard to get around.
Thanks for your comments! As usually, appreciated!...

HT4528 Why doesn't my internet and apps work when I'm in my wifi?

So this has happened to me once before but kinda just started working and now it's doing it to me again. When I'm in wifi nothing on my phone will work except texting and phone calls. I can not use the internet or any of my apps, even when I went into check for a software update I had to shut my wifi off to make it work. Has anyone else had this problem and if so how did you fix it or what did you do??

You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

My new ipod touch 4g doesn't let me download apps, it just says type in Apple ID password and when i do it asks for it again and again and again....

My new ipod touch 4g doesn't let me download apps, it just says type in Apple ID password and when i do it asks for it again and again and again.... what should i do?

I've got the same problem as well. When i connect all i see is "set up your iphone" screen. It worked perfectly fine a couple of weeks back when I last synced but, doesn't sycn anymore.
Any help would be appreciated.

I can't use my Ipad because a pop up is asking me for my Apple ID password but when I write it and press Ok the pop up message keeps appearing! It doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad. I also have an Iphone and it is not doing this.

I cannot use my Ipad because Im getting a pop up asking for my Apple ID password but when I enter it the pop up just keeps coming back and doesn't go away. It pops up every second it doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad not even turn on WiFi! The account and pasword are correct in fact I can use them fine on my Iphone. I have tried restarting my Ipad and turning it of, it doesn't work! What is happening and what can I do to fix it?

Same problem for me.
1. Cannot connect to wifi as icloud password pop up keeps appearing.
2. tried deleting account. UNable to do so.
3. tried resetting password by logging into apple id through desktop as mentioned in one of the responses in another thread. Unfortunately the apple id to be reset is the same as being prompted by icloud and hence unable to reset the same.
Feel like breaking the **** ipad into bits. Stupid of apple to let such a bug in and not offer support !!

My apple ID password works for all of my devices but one. i only have one account and have changed the password several times but still cannot get it to work on my iPhone. any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion, Chris. I actually did not resolve the issue which is why i did not post an answer.
it turns out that my iphone seems to default to an incorrect User ID (it defaults to an @me account, which is not something that i have ever used).
even when i change the User ID in my settings for the iTunes store, it still appears when i attempt to get updates for my existing apps. however, it does seem to use the correct ID when i attempt to purchase new apps.
If someone actually had an answer to correct this, i would love to update my existing apps.
Thank you.

Why doesn't Skype Click-to-call work on Windows 8.1?

Why doesn't Skype click-to-call work anymore? I upgraded to Windows 8.1, and now when I click on a highlighted phone number it asks "Which app should I use" or some such microsoft text. But no application is listed. Apparently it does not work from within Firefox (I have the latest version). And I can no longer find a Skype Click to Call application or extension in Firefox. Do I need to use another browser or is there a fix for this?

Hey ran
Sorry to hear you are having probloms
I currently have skype click to call installed with firefox and windows 8.1 up to date. I would advise you to re-install skype and its click to call addon and see where it gets you
hope this helps

Why doesn't facetime on iphone 4 work without wifi with straight talk?

why doesn't facetime on iphone 4 work without wifi with straight talk when other networks can?

Hardware requirements of the iphone 4 do not meet the specifications needed for FaceTime over cellular data.
4S and up do not require wifi for FaceTime.
this is exactly as intended.

Hello megascones,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like the screen is not responding to touch in one app. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond to touch - Apple Support
Restart your device. If you can't restart, reset your device.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

Why doesn't iPhone connect to the internet when connected a computer?

Why doesn't iPhone connect to the internet when plugged into a computer that has ethernet internet connection?

Also, computers don't work that way either to share a connection like that. Just because you plug a device into a computer doesn't mean it can use it's internet connection that way.
Windows Mobile devices have been able to use their host USB cable to connect to the internet, since at least the year 2000. (And vice versa, more recently.)
It was actually a minor surprise at first that Apple didn't support it.
