Why must I re-enter my password on almost every yahoo mail action.

In Yahoo Mail Classic about every 1-2 actions, reply, send or open in a new tab, I am required to re-enter my password. When I re-enter my password, if I am sending or forwarding, I lose what I have entered and get a blank new email. This only happens in FireFox. When using Explorer I have no re-enter password requests. I don't have any passwords saved in anything. I use clear history and cookies when closed. I am using 13.0.1.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

Why must I often enter my password?

So, I launch Settings on my iPad and poke iCloud in the left pane (it shows my email address for iCloud). On the right pane it shows my name and email address in the first block. Then Storage underneath, the iCloud Drive, etc below that. On the top block there is a ">" symbol. I poke that and it slides right to another screen. If everything is working I see contact information and so on. But more often than not I don't see that and am forced to enter my iCloud PW. What is that about? If I have to frequently enter iCloud PW then iCloud becomes a pretty useless feature, due to the hassle factor. How do I keep everything connected to the cloud?

HT5570 My six-year old grandson appears to be able to make purchases on the TV without having to enter the password and yet every other device i use (e.g. iPad, iPhone, iPod) is password protected. How is that possible?

My six-year old grandson appears to be able to make purchases on the TV without having to enter the password and yet every other device i use (e.g. iPad, iPhone, iPod) is password protected. How is that possible when I have to use my password to access such services on all other devices?

Having AppleTV remember the password is optional.
Logout of iTunes store, log back in and hopefully next time you come to purchase you'll be prompted for your password but decline the option to remember it. You might also want to look out of parental controls on the unit.

Why must I force quit (double press home and slide off) Mail on both my iPad and iPhone in order to have Mail access on my iMac on the same wifi network. Fetch is set to manual and my ISP is Charter.

I don't know about the "3" but it's a POP account. I've always suspected that Charter isn't letting go using their mobile apps for iOS. Puzzling that it doesn't block the other way. That is if Mail is open on the iMac it doesn't block access to Mail on either the iPad or iPhone. I'm guessing it's their mobile apps that are the problem but they won't admit it to me.

Hi Eva,
did you use https://helpx.adobe.com/au/contact.html 'till you could see this?
to get this phone number
naturally with your name not mine and did you use "What are my options? >>> https://helpx.adobe.com/au/contact/what-contact-options.html"?
Be that as it may, I'll send a message to one of the motivated and technically experienced member of the staff, who will contact you shortly, I'm sure.

Why must I keep changing my password?

For several months, I would receive a dialogue box when opening iTunes on my Mac. The box is asking for my appleID and password, which are being auto-filled but my password had been entered incorrectly. I'd have to enter my password and it would be fine. The night that I downloaded ios7 and iTunes 11.1, the auto-filled dialogue box apeard again and I had to change my password because it "had been entered incorrectly." I changed it....on my Mac, two iPhones, two iPads, one iPod touch, and two appleTVs. (Whew!) Also, several applications on the phones would individually prompt for the new password. Tonight, I opened iTunes on my Mac and the same dialoge box appeard. I entered the new passowrd from Septemer 18th, and I was again forced to change. Now I'll have to change the password on EVERY APPLE DEVICE AGAIN! Why is this happening? What can I do to make it stop? I don't want to be made afraid to open iTunes on my Mac for fear that I'll have to change my password over and over.
(I suspected perhaps there was a settings on my iTunes that caused it to always ask for my appleID and password, and that my Mac was auto-filling it incorreclty. But I can't seem to find a preference or a setting that appears as if it would cause that.)

Why are Apple letting their customers down so badly? - Yahoo mail problems

Problems with Yahoo mail are being reported all over this forum now.
Lots of people are reporting that they either can not connect to their Yahoo account as the phone fails to authenticate their details (despite them being correct) or that the phone will not auto-check for mail. Various solutions such as rebooting, restoring and changing passwords have been suggested but these are not having an impact for me or for numerous others. Neither is this just an issue for jailboken phones but affects everyone.
Apple have sold the iPhone as more than just a phone. It was sold to customers as a complete solution for providing connectivity. It strikes me that the iPhone is currently failing to deliver some of its core functions. If I had bought any other phone by now I would have returned it to the shop. The only reason that I hold on is the thought that Apple will update the software soon to solve the problem.
Why then is Apple not communicating to it customers about this? The impression given is that they are ignoring our please for help. Apple may not be able to fix the problems immediately but at the very least they should make an announcement about it and acknowledge that they are working on fixing the problem with a timescale for a resolution.
Apple – I feel let down and I’m sure many others on here feel the same.
This does not fit with your brand promise and if not resolved soon could have negative connotations on your brand image and equity. You may not want to mention it in the press because it will look bad but it will look a lot worse if the competition’s PR agencies get hold of it first.
As a business owner I watched with interest at the launch of the Enterprise Beta Software. Reliability in a mail delivery system is critical and knowing that it is taken seriously by a provider is also critical. Apple are not currently giving this impression and I would therefore not currently recommend them to my peers.
Come on Apple you can do better than this!!!!

I take your point, however there are number of Apple employees who are involved in discussions on this website. Furthermore Apple is missing a big trick if they are not review their own forums (let alone other forums) to get feedback on their products.
Apple has also made a big deal about the partnerships that it sets up with other companies (Google and Yahoo being amongst them). I do not think it is fair to pass the blame on to Yahoo. It is Apple's responsibility to ensure that the functions of its own products work. If Yahoo is letting them down they should be in discussion with Yahoo to resolve the problem as quickly as possible.

How can I stop Yahoo mail from automatically loading my user id and password when I access Yahoo Mail through Firefox?

When I access Yahoo Mail through Firefox, as soon as Yahoo mail opens, my userid and password have already been entered. I do not want this to happen since other people use this computer. How can I stop this? this does not happen when I access through Internet Explorer.

It looks like your password is stored in the password manager. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/make-firefox-remember-usernames-and-passwords?s=remembering+passwords&as=s#w_viewing-and-deleting-passwords Viewing and Deleting passwords]. Moreover, your Firefox version (3.6.18) is outdated. Go to Help < Check for Updates.

Why must I repeatedly enter my master password after installing Firefox Sync and is there a setting to eliminate the need to do this?

Ever since I installed Firefox Sync I am repeatedly required by a pop-up box to enter my master password in whichever of my PCs I am using at the time. That is very annoying and I don't understand why the password is required after initial setup since the Firefox Sync Key is supposed to be unique.

Hi craigjanis1,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would try restarting and maybe resetting your device as per this article:

HT5622 Why is my phone saying my password is incorrect every time I change it, then try to log into my apple account?

I am trying to use my apple ID for FaceTime but when I try to log in it keeps saying my password is incorrect. Even when I change the password it still says the same thing. I have changed my password three times and do not wish to do so a fourth time if I can help it. Thank you.

Hello,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would first make sure that you can access your account information by using the same username and password here. If you are able to access your account information attempt to sign in again. If the issue persists, try the troubleshooting steps in the article below.

Why must I completely uninstall iTunes, quicktime etc. for every update?

Every time I try to update iTunes there is a problem installing the iTunes software. I am forced to uninstall iTunes, quicktime, bonjour etc. every time! This is very irritating and takes a longgg time (considering I must also fully install it again). I have already tried deleting my Temp folder...Any ideas?

Can you detail what "problem" arises? Is it the same problem every time, and if so what exactly is the error message. If you can provide that information, it will help people diagnose the problem and offer suggestions.
One common problem, for any OS or application update, is antivirus and antispyware software. It's usually a good idea to temporarily disable any such utility prior to attempting any software installation or upgrade.
Regards.

Why must I restart to connect to the internet every time?

When I start my iMac the blue progress bar in the address bar freezes and will not connect to the internet. The computer itself works fine for applications not requiring internet access. Upon restarting the computer I get the internet connection right away. Occasionally (not often) I have had to restart as many as 6 times to get beyond the "freeze". This is not a problem when I use the ethernet cable, but even though this is a desktop I sometimes like to work from the comfort of another room, and being self contained it is a somewhat portable unit. I tried Airport Express, reloaded the O/S only, did a complete "Erase and Install"-all to no avail. Several phone calls to Apple Care, two visits to the Store, several calls to my DSL provider (Verizon) all got me nowhere. My wife's PC notebook does not have this issue. I am about to ask APPLE for an exchange but would just as soon get this unit working without this unproductive hassle and waste of my time. Anyone else ever have this problem? I am thinking my next attempted fix might be a new modem/router. Any recommendations there? Thanks for any input.

I really think this isn't a problem with your computer as much as it is your router.
It may not be set-up right, it may just not have a large enough range, or there may be interference.
I suggest resetting your router and reestablishing your wireless network before trying anything else. Your router's manual should help you out with the resetting.

E-mail account password needed input every time mail opened

Whenever I go to open e-mail I am asked to enter the the password for my Apple ID. I have tried to store the passwrd under e-mail preferences for my .me account but although I press save to update the account the ID is not retained in the keychain. Any advice welcome.

I would recommend to sign out/delete your accounts from your Mac (in Mail > Settings and System Preferences > iCloud and Internet Accounts) and then to completely set it up again in System Preferences > Internet Accounts. In most cases a fresh set up fixes such problems.
