WVC210 E-mail not holding password

I have a WVC210 camera. So far I am very happy with the camera. There is an issue in the e-mail notification configuration where the WVC210 will not hold my password. When I send a TEST from the application the SMTP fails. I then enter the password associated with my e-mail, send a test message and it works. I click the SAVE button and then run another test and SMTP fails. What is causing the password from not saving in my camera. This is very frustrating...

I have not seen this issue before. When you say it works, do you mean that it actually sends an email to the account you specify or does it just say "Test successful"? What type of email account are you trying to send from? (i.e. gmail, yahoo, hotmail, your ISP email)

Mail Not Saving Passwords

OK...here's my system config: MacBook Pro, 17" (MacBookPro2,1), OS X 10.4.10 (8R2232). So running the latest version of Mail.
Please note that my Jabber account in iChat is exibiting this exact behavior.
Basically, every time I start mail, it asks me for the password for each of my mail accounts. This has happened before, so at first, I thought nothing of it. Then, when I realized that it was every single time, I looked in prefs and realized that the password field was blank for each account. So, doing what I thought made sense, I went through each account, added the password, and saved it.
Then, the next time I launched mail, it did the sam thing: asked me for the password for each account. I looked, and low and behold, the fields were blank again. So, I added the password to one, saved it, then clicked on it again, and yes, again, it was blank. So basically, Mail is not saving the passwords to my accounts. All other information can be changed and it will save properly.
I went to Keychain Access and did a repair on the Keychain, and it fixed nothing. Is this a Keychain corruption? Do I have to delete my entire Keychain to fix this problem?
Help!

FIXED! How I fixed Mail not remembering passwords, keychains, certificates

As noted in this lengthy thread, hundreds of users who upgraded to Leopard were experiencing their email accounts not remembering their passwords in Mail. Since the upgrade to Leo, I was seeing this, too. Every hour or so, I'd need to reenter all the passwords to all 8 emails that I had. I also was seeing odd keychain behavior with Safari. I'd need to re-enter passwords and certificates over and over again.
From reading the above thread, a couple posters had come up with a fix. I modified it slightly, and for the past 3 days, everything has worked perfectly. Note that I'm no geek, don't really get why it worked, and basically attacked this like a man with a shotgun shooting a mouse. So what I did may break your system or cause you to die from cancer. But here's the steps I did that eliminated the problem
1. I quit Mail & Safari.
2. I opened up Keychain Access (in Utilities) and deleted everything I possibly could. I initially tried to just delete Mail and Safari-related stuff, but that didn't work, so I deleted everything the system allowed me to delete.
3. I ran Keychain First Aid (Menu: Keychain Access). I re-ran it about 4 times until it couldn't repair anything further (there was a dozen things it said it couldn't change, but there you go).
4. I then hooked up a second Mac, via Firewire, that had recently had a clean install of Leopard on it. I dragged the Mail app file over into the applications folder had it replace the existing Mail app.
5. I did the same with Safari, replacing the existing Safari app file.
(NOTE: I hear you can do essentially the same thing for steps 4 and 5, using your original Leopard install discs and a program called Pacifist, but that was more techie than I felt comfortable with. But I hear it does the same thing as copying over clean virgin copies of Mail and Safari, as I did in steps 4 and 5)
6. I then repaired permissions (via the Disk Utility in Utilities). I think this step is a little like smudging with sage, or chanting, but in fact both the new Safari and the Mail app needed thousands of repairs, so perhaps this wasn't as voodoo as suspected.
7. I then restarted the Mac. Upon opening up Mail, I did, of course, need to re-enter all of the passwords again. But that was it. That was 3 days ago, and I've been groovy ever since. I've restarted the apps, and restarted the Mac numerous times. So far, all passwords and keychains and certificates have remained solid.
So there you go. How I Fixed a Hair-Pulling Glitch in my Otherwise Nice Leopard System.

Did you copy both key3.db and signons.sqlite to the profile folder?
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
It is possible that there is a problem with the files key3.db and signons.sqlite that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox. 
Rename the files key3.db and signons.sqlite in the Firefox profile folder. 
You can add .old to the file names (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) or move them to another folder to make it possible to undo the action. 
You need to set a new Master Password after renaming or deleting key3.db and all currently saved passwords are lost. 
If that has worked then you can remove the renamed files that are no longer needed.

Mac mail not accepting password

Hi, my name is Christine. I am trying to connect to my mac mail account. It keeps prompting me for a proper password, however, when I type it in, it declines it. I am not sure why. I've tried different passwords but it still won't go online. Any suggestions?

Check the correct mail parameter.
SMTP/POP3/IMAP server, port, authentication
account name and password.

Mail not working password rejected

After latest software update Leopard 10.5.8 Mail receives the message "password rejected" So I type it in and it still fails. I dumped plist file in Library, and tried keychain access repair thinking that maybe something was corrupted. Mail is still not working. My Mail account is through a local Internet provider. It is a POP account.

OK! I figured this out... and it's probably the dumbest thing I ever encountered using mail. Called internet provider and told them the problem. They looked at the account and said that I had exceeded the quota on the amount of mail on their servers. It created a "POP lock". Stupid...
Anyways the fix was to change preferences in the advanced tab. Instead of having copy's of emails stored on their servers for a period of time you can choose to do it right away, which I did. Which they prefer apparently. I can't imagine why they wouldn't want copy's of thousands of spam messages stored on their servers for at least a week, maybe longer. They kindly reset my account after changing the settings, thus removing the "POP lock" Works fine now. Thanks for all your help.

TS3276 mail not accepting passwords

Have you tried these troubleshooting suggestions first: https://support.apple.com/kb/TS3276?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
If not, do that and see if it doesn't solve your problem. If not, there may be another issue that we can solve.

Why was "Mail not remembering passwords" thread locked out?

The problem wasn't resolved, yet the thread has been locked out! Does Apple monitor this board? If so, could someone from Apple at least acknowledge that there is a Mail-related problem and that someone is looking into it? The problem wasn't resolved with the latest Leopard release and even a cursory reading through the aforementioned thread reveals a lot of very frustrated users!

I had the same problem every once in a while with Tiger and now with Leopard. Sometimes, it works properly, i.e. remembering the passord. Sometimes, I am asked for my password repeatedly whether I check the "save" box. I have two different e-mail providers (gmail.com and gmx.net). I only get the troubles with the second one from time to time over a period of time.
I could "fix" it with the following workaround:
Mail > Preferences > General > Check for new mail: every 5 minutes.
Before, I had had set it to "check every 1 minute" what often resulted in the "loss" of the password.

Mail not remembering password

Since the 10.5 upgrade, Mail continues to ask for my password when it goes out to check mail even with the "save" box checked.
I ran Keychain First Aid.

The Mail account is not saving password

Ok so i have done all the things that the Help suggests.
When I want to save a password of my Mail account into password, I click Save to keychain...but it doesn't.
I've checked to make sure the settings for the Keychain are not blocking the 'save' etc.
So when i go to get mail on my different accounts..it constantly asks for the password.
Wierd thing is that the MobileMe one IS saved...this is a new MBA (Jan)
Any Suggestions...
Regards

Hello
Glad to see you are using the Help menu, it's great for 'how to' but perhaps this is a troubleshooting issue.
You say it doesn't save the password in keychain, you can verify this. Open Mail and Keychain Access (found in /Applications/Utilities) have both windows open side by side, take note of the number of items stored in the keychain before you apply my next steps. When mail prompts for a password enter gibberish and you should now see that keychain holds one more item. If this is the case Keychain is working in this respect.
Next verify your keychains, 6 short steps.
Then try Mail again with the correct password.
Interestingly, you said that Mail in other user accounts exhibit the same issue. I suggest creating a new user account and check in a new account then to double check as I can not account for those other accounts already created on your mac.
If the issue in the new user account persists then you should see if you can login using the same password using webmail (Safari or another browser of your choice). If you can login then the password must be correct. If you don't know the URL for the equivalent email account then call your email provider or provide details and I will see if I can find it, google is my friend, and yours
If you can login using a browser then consider these follow-up articles to troubleshooting Mail in general as it is not a password issue.
One question, is this issue isolated to just one email account, do other email accounts work as expected in Mail? If you only have one email account then it's an irrelevant question on my part but I should ask.
This is a very good article. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3276
Use this page to determine if your email settings are correct, http://www.apple.com/support/macosx/mailassistant/ I doubt this is needed as per the symptoms.
Connection Doctor, built into Mail can reveal a lot, use this as a last resort in this case to report where red lights appear. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/3.0/en/10018.html
Kind Regards

Since updating my macbook pro to IO X Mavericks, my iCloud email account will not hold its password. Apple support cannot provide a resolution. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Have you tried - in Mail go to the menu Mail > Preferences.
When the Preferences Pane opens, click on the Accounts Tab.
Click on your iCloud Account to select it.
Click on the Advanced tab.
Set Authentication to Apple Token.
Close the Preference Pane.

Mail will not add passwords

when i try to add passwords for my account in mail preferences they won't stay--i am always prompted to give password each time--when i go back into mail preferences the passwords are not saved, even though i have checked to save them

Open /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access, choose Keychain First Aid from the application menu, and proceed to repair the keychain. If that doesn’t work, try removing the password entry from the keychain and letting Mail create it again the next time it asks for it.

ARD admin password will not hold

I recently had to have my MacBookPro replaced under warranty. I cloned the hard drive from the old machine to the new. All good except a few apps needed to be re-registered. ARD on the other hand will not hold/remember my password. I accepts the password and I can use ARD but the next time I launch it it requires the password again. Any ideas about how I can get the password to hold?
many thanks
Mark

Yeah!.. thanks Dave. I now always run as a standard user. I logged on as Admin and entered the serial number and it held! Great. Thank you. It is the only app I have which had done this so far. Most just ask to authenticate. Weird that it did not protest, just did not do it.
thanks again
Mark
