After the update to El Capitan, internet accounts keeps asking for my password

So I've updated to El Capitan, but the internet is now constantly guard asking my password for my iCloud account: around once a day.

My iCloud account has an email from google: @live.nl (similar to hotmail.com) with-not activated audit. Mail (and internet accounts) has a specific app password.

When you register this app specific password, it does not agree the first two times ("cannot check account or password"), but he will accept the third time.

My apple mail has no problems, only internet accounts.

How can I fix?

This is the alert I receive

  • Missing Bootcamp after the update to El Capitan

    Threre was a 100 GB bootcamp partition and a 400GO OSX partition before update Mountain Lion to El Capitan.

    Here's the output of diskutil list after the update:

    I could have made the mistake of the reconstruction of the Macintosh HD with DiskWarrior directory to try to solve this problem.

    quick search of TestDisk, we get:

    By selecting one of the [Boot] data entries in the MS 6174 is obtained:

    Impossible to find all entries containing the SVI. Is there hope?

    Watch disk utility another partition? This partition installed Windows, and if so, it is no longer start?

    Looks like it shows that your hard drive is partitioned because it shows the scheme of 500 GB partition and then only 400 GB for Mac HD. Shows also the 40 GB of data to Microsoft.

  • After the update to El Capitan 10.11.6 I'm more able to use Excel

    I've updated a Mac Air to version 10.11.6. After the upgrade I'm more able to delete rows in Excel. The error is "Alert not enough memory" file is only 4.7 MB and air shows that I have 1 GB free memory. Is this a bug, and if so is there a work around available? I came to a standstill. worked quite happily on the sheet before the upgrade

    Try to reinstall the update by using this file: Download OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 Combo Update. It can solve the problem, but if it is not the case, then you must reinstall OS X. It is not a bug in Excel because I did not have such a problem arise on my system. However, an alert memory you reported is an OS X error alert that you have not enough memory to continue. Quit all other open applications to free up more memory. See if that helps. Also make sure that report is not disk space.

  • Email account keeps asking for username and password

    I use Explorer 10.  A few days ago when I tried to log into my email account, the re-appearing Party kept login screen asking UserId and Password over and over again.  It was working fine a few days ago.  I can access my account using Google Chrome and also on my iPad.  I tried to redefine the parameters of the default Explorer, I used the Microsoft repair tool, I restored my system at a time when it was working correctly, I tried to sign in as a new user.  Nothing works.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Before that happens, added new software?

  • Two "photo library" after the update to El Capitan

    Hello

    I found two "photo library" file in ~ / images /, one with the old icon names "iPhoto Library", the other with a new icon of Capitan, called "photo library".

    Created and last updated date match each other.

    I guess that El Capitan duplicate my library during installation. I'm a little surprise to bite, it has not removed the old...

    These files are huge: is it safe to delete the old one?

    Thank you

    These files are huge: is it safe to delete the old one?

    Libraries to think big, but they share the storage for images and use less than the total size of the disk storage, see this support document:

    Photos saves disk space to share images with your iPhoto or Aperture - Apple Support libraries

    and also: Six colors: the (hard) link between iPhoto and photo

    If you delete the old iPhoto library, you won't win a lot of rear storage. It is save to remove the iPhoto library, but I wanted to wait burn bridges.  Wait, are you sure that the migration went well and no pictures are missing.

    In addition, you may need to complete your projects in iPhoto, the projects do not migrate. How many Photos handles content and metadata for iPhoto and Aperture - Apple Support

    And if you notice, that you do not like the pictures and want to return to iPhoto, you'll need your old library.

    Please help I need to retrieve my emails! Thanks, Sarah

    McAfee is a huge problem with Windows Mail.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 if you want to use, wait until you get the job of Winmail.

    Check if you can connect webmail and that works very well and it's not a problem on the end of the server messaging or because of misspelled powers.  Then delete your account in WinMail, compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) and make sure that you have disabled the e-mail analysis then add your account to mail back again and see if it works.

  • MS Exchange account connects is more after the installation of El Capitan

    I read all the answers on this topic but none does not work for me just now.  Also the mail app works is not with the exchange server does not seem to be linked to the updates in El Capitan is such that she had been fine for the weeks of work.

    When I had problems in the past with my exchange server, I just deleted and added the account, however, this time I can't get past the initial input details.

    It is impossible to change the internal and external URLS, because they are greyed out.

    Thoughts?

    MacBook Pro, El Capitan 10.11.2, 9.2 Mail app. The NHSmail system uses a customized version of Microsoft Exchange (2007)

    I had this problem since the installation of the last update of El Capitan (10.11.2). I also use NHSmail. I installed the update 20 December 2015, then my Microsoft Exchange email that I ran across the apple mail client (also 9.2) has stopped working. A deletion of the account and attempt to set up gives me the same error window that you have lived. NHSmail helpdesk say it's not a problem on their end and have confirmed there are multiple apple mac users complain of the same show. I called the support of apple on the subject, but the operator was not able to offer much help, I asked that it is forwarded to a technical team of things like dealing with. I can't find anything else out there on this. It seems that the patch they come out for all other users who have problems with Outlook led inadvertently to us be trampled! I'm afraid that if we are not a big enough group of users, nothing can be done for a while

  • After the update, I can't check my mail?

    After update of El Capitan, my mailbox keeps validating and I can't get past this.

    The new version of Mail stores its database in a different format that the old, so the database must be converted before Mail can use it. Sometimes, the conversion fails because the old database is damaged, or because of a bug in the conversion code.

    What you should do depends on what type of e-mail accounts you have. The first step, no matter what you do, is to save all the data, if you don't have a current backup.

    Please read this post in full before anything else. If this is unclear, ask for clarification before taking a step. If you're not convinced that you can follow instructions, stop, don't change anything.

    A. Si you know that you have IMAP or Exchange only e-mail accounts

    The easy way to recover is to delete the old database and start over. You can do this without losing all the messages, provided that:

    ☞ All your incoming mail accounts are on an IMAP or Exchange Server

    ☞ You store messages sent on the server

    ☞ You have no mailboxes "on my Mac".

    Independent mail services the best-known as iCloud and Gmail are inspired by the IMAP. On the other hand, hosted by ISP e-mail services often use pop. If your ISP is one of your providers of mail services (or the only), you cannot use this procedure. See below part B in this case.

    If the above conditions are met, please continue to do so.

    Quit Mail runs.

    Open your home folder's library folder by pressing the option key and selection

    Go ▹ library

    in the Finder menu bar. Inside, it is a subfolder named "mail". Move this folder on the desktop. You do not move the e-mail application; you move a folder named "mail".

    Launch of Mail. The mailboxes must be restored automatically. The messages will be downloaded from the servers, so it can take a long time if you have very large mailboxes. Some people have mailboxes in the gigabyte range, and which can be a problem if the bandwidth is measured or the Internet connection is slow.

    If the mailboxes are restored successfully, you can delete the folder that you moved to the desktop. You may have to re-create your rules, signatures and custom stationery Mail. If it's important for you not to have to do these things, ask for instructions before you delete the folder.

    B. Si you have a POP or "on my Mac" mailbox store, or if you don't know what you have

    Move the folder of mail on the desktop as in the part has and open.

    Press the key combination command + F to search. In the line of chips to search along the upper part of the window, select "Mail". Below, defined as the search criteria

    The name ends with mbox

    Results of the research will be a list of folders with a name ending with '.mbox '. Each of them represents a box the letters.

    Launch of Mail. All mailboxes will be empty at the beginning, but if you have any IMAP or Exchange mailbox (including iCloud), they should fill in automatically after a delay, as in part A. If you have now all the messages you want to keep, you can stop here. Otherwise, import from mailboxes in the search results. The article of support related, select

    Apple Mail

    as import format. You'll probably want to jump boxes to letters with names such as "Deleted Messages", "Junk", "Spam", or "Trash". Some may be duplicates of what you already; those that you can remove.

    In some cases, a mailbox may fail with an error to import. If this happens, thanks for posting your results.

    If all the mailboxes that you want to import do successfully, you can delete the mail on the desktop folder.
