Why do they ask for a password for imap etc.

I got a new computer and have implemented the Thunderbird for email. I tried to write and send, and it requires a password for SMTP and imap, I do not have a password, what do want. After clicking on send it went on & on it was current until I cancelled it.

All e-mail accounts have passwords. If you don't know what yours is that you must work with your email provider to reset it to something you can remember.
Go to the web mail providers or email help page and look for a link reset a forgotten password.

  • Using my current ID and password I can connect to Adobe. When I try to download the upgrade to Flash Player they ask for ID and password. When I put in my class, it is rejected. What causes this and how can I fix it?

    Using my current ID and password I can connect to Adobe. When I try to download the upgrade to Flash Player they ask for my ID and password. When I insert my current ID and password, it is rejected. How can I fix this problem? Is it a bad sign in a former ID, and/or an old password associated with Flash Player?

    The password is provided by the operating system and is designed to protect you from accidentally install software.  You will get this prompt for any installation outside the context of the App Store.

    If you do not need to enter a user name or password when you start your computer, you can probably just leave the password field empty when recognizing this prompt.

    Hello

    did you purchase your product of these companies like Amazon? If Yes, this isn't a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please take a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)

    The next part, so I don't see at the very least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything happens in the link above. I leave as an info yet, he could still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through your Adobe Store and find the button "get serial number". Fill in the form and after awhile, you will get the real serial number.

  • Why is Firefox asks for outbound connections to DTN?

    Very concretely, Firefox is plaintiff and outgoing connection DTS. I have allow this connection for Firefox to work normally as far as I can tell. Why is happening. I have a Windows 7 64 - bit OS fully updated without java installed and the only plugin I use is flash. I own most barebones system you can imagine with the few applications, I installed blocked inbound and outbound internet access. I think you get the picture. Thank you and I look forward to your response.

  • I see that GOOGLE CHROME IS ALREADY DOWNLOADED AND HAS ITS OWN sidebar. WHY ARE THEY ASKING ME TO DOWNLOAD?

    again, I must ask a few answers. Perhaps, I don't give you the time, so here I am again asking the same question, only much smaller. I need to know if the forums used only to improve essentially advertised items or are more than one opinion which speaks as a topic that could have been just a ti problem write? This subject of misunderstanding is caused of the variety of comments that I received from so many people who don't know me and those who have never even met me. I realize, the gift that I write, but after questioning several times in magazines differrent, to share the story of my life, I was flattered. I still, but I have not the '(appropriate powers)' put behind my name... so, Yes!, it's a handicap, as well as the stigma, not having not not the "essential education" most people have.so, can you please tell me, we, #1.stick to writing and tell my life experiences, which are not the everyday things means most of the people had.

  • Why Windows asked for a password to steam?

    I have install parental control in Windows 8 on the laptop of my children.  It will solve so many problems, and help me to monitor my children.  They have standard user accounts and access to all applications and games to 10 +.  However, at the opening of steam (to execute terrariums) they ask an administrator password.  Steam has been set to run as administrator (rt click, properties, advanced, run as administrator) both shortcuts and program.  Help, please!

    Hi Cheryl,

    Given that you have activated parental control programs, please try to run the program without using the administrator level. This should run the program using the current account balance and would prevent asking administrator password. Please follow these steps:

    1. right click on the shortcut or menu item.

    2. Select Properties.

    3. go to the compatibility tab.

    4. click on the change settings for all users.

    5. uncheck the run this program as an administrator.

    6 do it again to the program itself.

    Please let us know if that would work.

    Thank you!

    Please close the following applications to continue:

    I don't have outlook open.  I restarted my computer, checked for erros and bugs, and even tried to install in safe mode.  In safe mode, CC explained that I didn't have any internet connection.  Any suggestions on why it keeps asking for me to close outlook?  I have a lot of space on my hard drive.

  • Photoshop CC asks for a serial publication, even if I am logged in

    Hello!

    I downloaded the latest version of Photoshop CC but when I run the application, the program requires a serial number. I don't understand, I've already put my ID, and it worked perfectly for the CS6 version... It was written in the contract that the subscription of the CC has given access to new applications CC and now they ask for a serial number, that I have not yet. What is the problem? I use the subsribtion student / teacher maybe it has something to do with this thing? While searching on the forums, I heard it was some kind of problem with languages, etc., but I did not understand, if someone can explain to me, I'll be happy.

    Thanks for your replies.

    (Sorry for the English, I am french... And you know what we say about french people trying to speak enlgish )

    I found a solution to my problem with the described behavior. The problem is the selected language. At least the thread opener french that could be the problem because you are only allowed to use the software in this language you chose when you subscribe to the cloud. I know but in any case, it's ridiculous.

    In my case, I unintentionally installed Photoshop CC in German, even if I wanted to install it in English. Maybe, because I'm based in German and Adobe Intelligent guess my default install language must be German, it has been installed in German.

    What have I done to solve the problem:

    • Uninstall Photoshop CC. (you could do this by going to the folder/Applications/Utilities/Adobe Creative Cloud / Utils / creating cloud Uninstaller.app (MacOS) don't know where to do this in Windows, but you can find it.)
    • Start your creative cloud.
    • Set preferences for your language app to the language that you have your subscription running. (You can do this by pressing the gear wheel, choose Preferences and the applications tab gives you the opportunity to do so.)
    • Reinstall Photoshop CC.
    • Launch Photoshop CC.

    Has worked like a charm for me, hope this helps you.

    And Adobe in case you read this. It's funny that people encounter a problem like this only because they choose the wrong language. Shame on you.

  • Microsoft sent an email asking for your username and password and what country you are, of stateing, that they were up-to-date at your service

    Original title: microsoft servvice

    I wanted to know if microsoft has sent an email asking for your username and password and what country you're stateing they were at your service day and need information to do

    Microsoft will never request this information in an unsolicited email. They are very likely that ask for any sort of password under any circumstances. Scam. Phishing attempt. Fake. Choose your own description. No Microsoft.

  • Windows Mail keeps asking for my username and password, and even if they are correct he still doesn't and comes repeatedly asks me for the info

    That makes me MAD! Windows Mail - checking the user name and password &!

    It makes me crazy.

    For the last few days my Windows Mail keeps asking for my username and password and even if they are correct it still doesn't and comes repeatedly asks me for the info again and again. I deleted the account mail twice now and re added it but it still does not work. I can send emails but not receive. I have McAfee but I aiinstalle only this yesterday so that isn't the problem. the error message is:-
    Account: 'mail.talktalk.net', server: 'mail.talktalk.net', Protocol: POP3, server response: '-ERR Authentication failed.', Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, Server error: 0x800CCC90, error number: 0x800CCC92

    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.

  • Why firefox repeatedly asked if I want to save a password when I already clicked ever "for this site?

    I like the fact that Firefox will save my passwords, but I don't want that to record the essential password like banking etc. When I enter my banking website, Firefox asks "I want to save this password". I click "never for this site". But the next time I'm on my Bank's Web site, he asks me the same question again and again.

    Is there a way I can stop Firefox do this? Either way, my bank site never appears in the 'Exceptions' box (to the saved passwords).

    You can control and manage permissions for the domain in the tab currently selected through these steps:

    • Click the address bar onthe Site identity button"(globe/lock)
    • Click on 'More information' to open ' tools > Page Info "with the Security tab is selected
    • Go to the permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

    You can control and manage permissions for all areas on the Subject: authorizations page.

    Make sure not to delete the preferences of Site where you use 'Clear history of Firefox closing' or otherwise to clear the history.

    Compensation of the "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, installation of software, passwords, and other specific data from Web site.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

  • Why can I not access my windows mail? It keeps asking for username and password

    He keeps asking for username and password and will not accept anything of that type I.

    If you can, check if you can connect via webmail to determine if your email provider working properly on their end.  If you can log in via webmail, then try to remove your e-mail account, close WinMail and compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) then add your account to e-mail back again.
