Why is my Thunderbird email account suddenly not asking for a password?
I have shut down my computer and when I go into my email account it for some reason does not asked for my password....Not sure what has happened. Would appreciate any help...
From the Menu Bar select '''Tools-Options-Security-Passwords-Saved Passwords'''
Delete the saved password entry and restart Thunderbird.
No menu bar with Tools? Press the alt key.

Why does my email account suddenly start asking for a key chain account and not end mail
For no reason at all my Gmail is now asking for my gmail passwork (which it constantly rejects) to save in the keychain and will no longer send mail - it just goes into the outbox..why??? How can I fix this..
If you know your correct gmail passwords open the Keychain Access aplication and delete all gmail passwords. Insert your correct gmail passwords when asked for them and allow them to be stored in your keychain.

the email id on my icloud is not working . i donot have acess to this as well. so i am unable to download apps. i cannot even set up new email id as it asks for previous password. is there any otherway i can download apps to my phones
You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

At the very end of creating an email account the program asks for a software security device password, I have no idea what this is or where to find it. To my knowledge I don't have a "software security device". I am using Windows 7 on an IMac.
What is the exact prompt or error message you get?

Portege M400: Why am I not asked for a password at boot?
Hi,
I have a Portege M400 and I used the Toshiba Security Assist software to set up a BIOS boot password as well as an HDD protection password. This software, as well as the actual BIOS (Esc+F1 at boot) both show that the password I set is registered/recognized.
However, I am not actually asked for either of those passwords when I boot the computer!!!
I have a dual-boot system with the original WinXP for Tablet PC on one of the partitions, and an Ubuntu Feisty on another. My boot loader is GRUB but I don't understand why that should affect the behaviour of the BIOS that should happen before it calls the boot loader...
Can someone help me with this? It would be really important for me to protect my BIOS and the hard drive.
Thanks in advance,
dsokus1. Check your security settings with the Toshiba password utilty. Are these configured correctly?
2. Did you set the user or the supervisor password? If you only set the supervisor password you are not asked for the password.
3. Try to set the HDD and User pw in the initial bios setup (press ESC when prowering on). -
Erased all saved passwords, rebooted, now TB does not ask for new password!
I erased all saved passwords as I've had to change the passwords on my accounts. I then rebooted and now TB does not ask for new password. I have rebooted entire computer and still no change.
Thanks!I presume you removed the passwords via Tools > Options > Security > Passwords tab.
Do you have these settings in Account Settings:
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account.
* select: 'Check for new messages at start up'
* select: 'check for new messages every eg: 15 minutes'
* select : 'Automatically download new messages'
make other prefered settings and click on OK to save changes. -
I just hooked up my Apple TV - it is all connected correctly- when my wifi comes up on my tv screen i click and select it. It then says it is "connected" , but it is not as is it has not asked for the password for my wifi. I have turned it all off and back on, I have restarted it as well. I do know why it will not ask for my password - am I missing something?
It will not ask after it is already connected. Is ATV working? Can you connect to the iTunes store, Netflix, etc?

Not asking for network password
My company guest network wifi updates n/w password every day. When I switch on my MAC book there will be a popup screen asking for network name and password( auto join network). But some times, it is not asking for the password once it expires. I restarted mac book, but still its could join network and i donn have any way to enter the new password.
add this to your start-up: gnome-keyring-daemon --components=gpg
Edit: and install gnome-keyring ofc

Thunderbird starting asking for my password. I know the password, just have not been asked for years.
After typing in password keep getting message
'Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server mail.intergate.com responded: dmanns logon failed '
however, I went to Webmail.intergate.com; was redirected to http://email.1dial.com/webmail/Login.aspx.
Can get email from webmail just fine (same password), just not via Thunderbird.
Have already run two anti-virus scans. Have deleted the saved passwords and re-entered them as the program asked for them and renamed key.db & signons.sqlite (Read this in a forum on the web) and they rebuilt themselves. Still can not get email via Thunderbird.Did you contact your email provider? They may have server issues.

I am trying to install an app in my iphone. When I click Install, my old gmail account comes up for verification and it asks for my password etc. I dont use this account anymore and have a new gmail account that is associated with my apple account. How can I get the new gmail to default when I am trying to install apps?
Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID. -

Opening an email with a window asking for a password
I am in mac mail on my eMac trying to view an email from Realsimple.com that I viewed earlier today and I keep getting a request for "To view this page, you need to log in on area "Staging Area" on cp.realsimple.com. Your password will be sent in the clear." Then it asks for a name and password. I don't have an account with this website, but I have gotten daily emails from them for some time and have never gotten this prompt before. I can't get out of it to view any other emails either.
I have tried your suggestion too. I can not seem to get the program from stopping to bring up the password drop down window.
This window says: "To view this page, you need to log in to area “Staging Area” on cp.realsimple.com."
Concerning "preview" I don't know what that is - tried clicking on all corners but got no response because drop down window is locking out of "mail" program. The main screen has folders on left, unopened mail lists on top right and the highlighted mail in window frame below.
What actions are you suggesting that I take to get out of the locked program? -

My old internal drive now in FireWire enclosure, BC option dimmed at start
This disk ran BC with xp as an internal drive and the Mac firmware was ok running Snow Leopard, but simply moving the drive outside made it hang. Are there firmware updates to be applied? The ones on there were done several years ago under Tiger.
