Apple Mail asks for Google login on a daily basis. This happens to both my personal and work gmail account. I tried generating app specific password but when i go to preferences -> account information: there is no field for a password. This has been happening only since I have upgraded to 10.12.4. I couldn't reproduce the issue easily - not until the next prompt for password shows. Update I tried deleting and re adding the accounts. It did not fix the issue.

Worse, I could not log back into my account this time the google login prompts. It was stuck at a gray screen after entering the password. However, updating to the latest public beta just now resolved the issue. I am not sure what else you've tried so far, so I'll begin from scratch: Disable two-step verification In the past, I've found that two-step verification caused issues between OS updates. Alternative for image capture error mac.

Use Google's website to disable two-step verification for your accounts. You can reenable it later. If you aren't using two-step verification, continue. Re-authenticate • Completely remove the affected accounts: System Preferences > Internet Accounts > select account > click minus icon • Add the accounts again. You should see a Google-branded login frame in the window. If you are able to do this, continue monitoring for the issue. If you've already tried this, please update your answer with what is currently happening and the steps you've taken.

3) Go to My Apple ID by going to and click on Manage Your Apple ID. 4) Change your Apple ID to the Email ID address. Check if this issue solves the problem.

Dave, How do I get Outlook to stop asking me for my network password every time I send an email? I just hooked up SBC Yahoo DSL. I finally was able to get emails to send out, but now this window keeps popping up. What’s the trick to solve this problem? I’ve been in that sort of situation, so I can commiserate. Fortunately, it’s not too hard to fix if you’re running Microsoft Outlook 2000 / Outlook XP. Here are the steps you’ll need to take: • Select Tools -> E-mail Accounts menu option.

(depending on your version of Outlook this option might be found under Tools -> Options -> Mail Setup tab -> E-mail Accounts button) • The “View or change existing e-mail accounts” item should be already selected. Click “Next”. • Select the account you want to modify and click “Change”. • In the next screen, click “Remember password” in the “Logon Information” section in the lower left corner. • Then click “Next” or “OK” as necessary to confirm.

That should be all that’s required for your copy of Microsoft Outlook to forevermore remember your password and let you use your new SBC Yahoo account without any fuss or hassles. Over 12 years we had the same issue, perhaps once or twice a year – first as Comcast customers then with AT&T. They tell you it’s not their problem but with Outlook. They have you reset your password at AT&T or Comcast website then go in to Outlook Tools/Account Settings and click on your email and use the same pass.

But it does not fix the problem. In the past, we’d keep trying new techs until someone fixed it at Comcast or AT&T. The issue happened again this morning and AT&T said it was Outlook not them. They wanted to charge us $180 to have a specialist resolve since it was beyond AT&T and was a so called Outlook problem. As we yelled more dropped to $49.

We accepted the charge but what the new tech did was go to att.net, click into Member Center (rather than PLease sign in here), I entred the user/pass at that logon screen instead. That fixed the problem! I’m guessing that when we had Comcast someone did the same on their end – thus resetting our password, correcting the 530 authenticity error. So if you have AT&T and see in details that it’s a 530 auth error with yahoo, try changing your pass at att.net and then logon to MEMBER CENTER which should unblock your email.

(Your Outlook and AT&T pass may have to match.) I wonder if it’s a dirty trick by AT&T so they get people signed on to their service unnecessarily. It is not an Outlook software problem. We kept telling them such but got sucked in to the charge which we will fight.
