Won't accept my name and/or password

Adobe won't provide support for this free program, but I can't get in to install an update and without the update, flash player doesn't play. I can get into Adobe.com with my name & password, but NOT INTO FLASH PLAYER. Please help.

This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt. If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.

I can't log in to my computer. It won't accept any names and passwords from any accounts.

This is my work computer, and it started 3 days ago. It won't accept the name and password of any account in the office, except for the localadmin log in. That works just fine. I have tried all the basic troubleshooting like restarting, unplugging the computer, unplugging the network cable. Doesn't help. The login screen shakes like I typed in the wrong password.
It is connect to a network with other macs and PCs. We use Windows Small Business Server 2003, I don't know if that has anything to do with the issue.
Today the problem also started affecting a Mac Book Pro, which is also connected to the network.
Is there an update we are missing? What's going on?

Are you authenticating to an Active Directory server? If so, that's where the problem is.

My MacBook won't accept my name and password

My macbook won't turn on from security screen. It randomly shut off then went to this screen but now won't finish turning on. Safebooting hasn't worked yet either

A password reset would certainly be a good idea. However, it could be an iCloud issue. If you Mac matches your user password to your Apple password, it could be that when you initially start up, you don't have an internet connection...
Logging in as guest gets you connected, thus being able to authenticate. So when you change it, either make sure it's stored locally, or run some diagnostics on wifi connection upon startup. Out of interest, are you connected at the login screen (top right next to the time will tell you)?

TS3899 My email account has disappeared from my iphone4. No longer listed. Now won't accept my user name and or password.

My email account has disappeared from my iphone4. No longer listed. Tried to set up new email account but now won't accept my user name and or password.

Finally went to the Apple shop where a nice young man explained that I had to use the original password not the recently changed password - case sensitive too - and finally have installed the updated Adobe Flash player with no shaking! Maybe this helps you too. JL

Email send/receive suddenly doesn't work ; can't change email settings as BB phone won't accept valid username and password -- what to do?

email send/receive suddenly doesn't work (as of September 24th); I can't change email settings (one suggestion from tech) as BB phone won't accept *valid* username and password -- what to do?
I understand from a support note that if I keep trying my password/username combination, my BB will eventually delete all data!
I can't understand this. I'm completely lost now. I can't remember what I've done or tried to do. A plethora of usernames and passwords is swimming in my head.
Thanks for any hints. I have always loved this BB Bold and have never had any trouble with it.

But the real question is why for the past year did the passwords work and then all of the sudden after this anomaly the disk password doesn't work? I'm not 100% sure of what my configuration was, but I know that most of the time it required one password -- supervisor, and occasionally it asked for 2 -- disk password as well I believe. This may have been related to the Password on Restart setting I think -- asking for the disk password on cold vs. warm boot. But I know both were exactly the same. But after this incident only the Supervisor password worked.

My mac is not accepting my name and password for login because it is in arabic how am i suppose to login?

my mac is not accepting my name and password for login because it is in arabic how am i suppose to login? how do i type Mark Yap in arabic, im typing it in pressing the actual letters on the keyboard but wint accept it?

I am assuming that you are trying to log in with the English language. If this is the case (or any other language for that matter), see if there is a button on the login screen that allows you to change your language.

AirPort asks for PPPoE connection information consists of an account name and a password. Where can I find it? My provider could not help me.

If your provider won't tell you then you must use their provided router.. some ISP are like that.

TS3276 Cannot send mail from my iPad...."user name and or password is incorrect"......mail can be sent from my iPhone

Why do I get the message "Cannot send mail, the user name and or password for my email outgoing server is incorrect"? I use the same account, etc. on my iPhone and haven't any trouble sending mail.

If your email requires a password for the SMTP server you can set it up in the settings in the General mail setup. Some i.e Gmail require a password for SMTP.
Otherwise you will probably get better answers in the iPad forum.

Where do I enter PPP user name and PPP password?

Where do I enter PPP User Name and PPP Password when installing a new modem? I followed directions for installation but a dialog box asking for those items didn't come up.
I reset the Wi-Fi on the System Preference > Network Pane after turning off all my wireless devices, MBP, iPad, iPhone, Canon MG5320 printer/scanner, and HP LaserJet Professional P2606N (this printer is connected via ethernet to AirPort Extreme).
I did this because of the following message:
Another device on the network is using your computer’s IP address (192.168.0.1)
Following directions I unplugged the PK5001Z Modem, plugged it back on, and then turned on each wireless device, one at a time so that unique IP addresses would be created for each one. This worked, but now I'm trying to get our Smart HD Samsung TV to connect to the internet.
Setting up the IP Internet settings, we are using the Network Name and entering its IP address manually and also having the setup find the IP address automatically. It connected to the modem but couldn't complete the connection to the internet.. Also use a Guest Network, but that didn't work either.
Is the PPP User Name and PPP Password still necessary? It was given to me by our service provider and was original in 2012.
Bonnie

I found the Modem GUI Logo setup on the web for my modem using the address of my IP address with http://xxxxxxxxx.
Everything looks good.
The internet connection with the TV is still a problem.

How do I change name and install Password or pass code

How do I change name and install Password or pass code?

You would do this using the AirPort Utility.
To change the Network Name using AirPort Utility v6.x: AirPort Utility > Select your AirPort > Edit > Wireless tab > Wireless Network Name. On the same tab, you can set the wireless security password.

Is your iPad recognised by your computer's iTunes when you connect it to your computer ? Resetting a disabled device : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
If it's not recognised then do you have the latest iTunes version installed on your compute ?

My iPad keeps asking me to insert my user name and apple password every 10 mins or so. Anyone know why and what I can do to stop this? Thank you

Myipad 1 keeps asking me to insert my user name and apple password every 10 mins or so. How can I prevent this? Thank you.

I don't know how wide spread this issue is. I've only come across the thread I posted before.
You can provide feedback to Apple here.
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
I wouldn't wait for an update from Apple.
I have several other wireless devices (laptop, iPod touch, blackberry) which have absolutely no problems at all.
Since it's just the iPad wi fi issue, try restoring as new.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3828
You may have an app installed that's causing problems with your Wi Fi. After you restore as a new device, sync 5 apps at a time, then test the Wi Fi on the iPad. Keep syncing apps... you might find a culprit.
Scanning the Internet there seems to be lots of other people having this problem.
Do you have the links?

I am trying to deauthorize my audible account. It says the user name and/or password are incorrect after I had just deauthorized the computer using the same user name and password. They should be different correct?

I am trying to deauthorize my audible account. It says the user name and/or password are incorrect after I had just deauthorized the computer using the same user name and password and logging in to post this. They should be the same password correct?

Deauthorize Audible Account... always appears as a menu selection, even if you deauthorized Audible or never even had an account.
Audible is a different account from iTunes and does not require the same username / password.

Linksys Rejecting My User Name and/or Password for 192.168.1.1

All of a sudden, my user name and/or password are being rejected when I try to enter the router utility. This is also happening on a second machine that is served by this one. Any solution, ideas?

Oops! I should have mentioned that the router is a BEFW11S4 and the pci card is a WMP11. According to the Linksys website, both have the latest firmware and drivers. These are Wireless B devices that, in the past, have worked fine. Lately, the second computer has been dropping connections like crazy and is driving me---well, crazy.
