One more point is that the Numeric keyboard (part of keyboard consisting only nunber keys) does not work for passwords with some websites or webforms.You have to use the number keys above the the QWERTY keys to enter your password.

A 1 on the QWERTY keyboard sends 00110000 (030 Hexadecimal).
A 1 on the Numeric keypad sends 00110000 (030 Hexadecimal) same code.
It might be that you have the number keys turned off in the keypad and the key presses are sending navigation information (arrow keys). This behavior can be toggled using the NumLock key

Actually I have encountered this very problem when I have entered the correct password. I am using Windows 8.1 and when this happens, I check Windows Update and invariably, there is some kind of update to install. After the install, my password works fine. Another clue is that one of my CTRL keys does not open a new tab when held down.

Like Lisa above I recently was unable to access an account using my password. I store these on a USB flash drive. When I cut and pasted the pw into the login box it would not work. When I entered the pw one character at a time it worked.Additionally I have found that websites where I use random character string passwords typically have their own, often very limited, list of acceptable special characters.

We had issues like this at work. People being told that their machine login password was invalid, when they knew it was the right one.
Turns out the System Admin had assigned one password to log into the machine, a different one to connect to the network, and a third password for the e-mail accounts.
Windows was trying to use the same password for all three credentials on login. Very confusing.

Invalid login errors usually mean that either the username or password you are trying to log in with are incorrect. This can also happen if the password does not meet password requirements (at least 8 characters, both upper and lower case and at least 1 digit).

First, try to reset your password using the Forgotten your username or password? link on the WebJunction login page. If that fails or the password reset email does not arrive, contact OCLC Support with the email address that you requested your account with.

I know this thread is a few years old but some enterprises are still using 10.1. I've just had the same issue as you guys, though whilst upgrading to 10.3.1 and was able to get past without uninstall/install.

I noticed that even during the upgrade to 10.3.1 it was using the correct AD service account and I had confirmed that my password for the service account was correct. I had noticed that it had originally been installed using the local arcgis account.

Firstly I tried setting the ArcGIS for Server service running as a local user, then resetting it in services to AD service account. Unfortunately this didn't work. In the local computer management on the first server I was upgrading I disabled the arcgis user. I then started running the post install and it allowed me to change the user, possibly because the the arcgis user was disabled. I didn't complete the post installation and instead tried going back into the installation, entered the appropriate network password for the AD service account, and it worked! No Invalid Password error.

The installation proceeded until it came to Starting ArcGIS Server service... and hung there for 10+ mins. I stopped the ArcGIS Server service in the windows services dialogue, and the installation was able to finish.

My team has dropbox downloaded on several devices. Mobiles & Tablets: both IOS and Android. Computers: Mac and PC - yet for some reason we cannot go online (tried most browsers) and access the dropbox account online. I manage the account and have not changed the password, so why do we all get the "Invalid Email or password" message? - And yes - I have cleared history.

Did this post not resolve your issue? If so please give us some more information so we can try and help - please remember we cannot see over your shoulder so be as descriptive as possible!

Have you tried what has already been suggested? They cannot resolve things if you wont help them do so - especially as its obviously not an issue impacting huge numbers of people so its something very specific.

Finally received permission from Dropbox to view my files on a 3rd device after resetting the password. The old password was working fine on three devices until I needed to swap one device out for another. Why was replacing the password necessary to swap devices? Going forward, will changing the password always be necessary to successfully swap devices?

For the last couple of weeks, a few of our data team members, including me (domo admin) have been getting an "invalid password" message up top several times a day. The only solution is to change our passwords, but this if frankly annoying to do several times a day. Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this? Thanks!

Thanks for your reply DaniBoy. I've just checked the admin settings and passwords expire after one year, but we are getting this "invalid password" message several times a day. I've also read the article in the link and it does not seem to be an issue with the password per se. Additionally, not everyone in the team gets this message, only those of us who use domo extensively.

I continue having a strange problem where zoom tells me the password is wrong when trying to join a meeting. The password is just 1 character long (not very secure, I know, but not my choice, and it's a meeting open to the general public in my area anyways), so I'm not typing it in wrong. Additionally, if I open the meeting in the web browser (same computer, keyboard, etc) I can join, but only in the browswer, If I click to open the Zoom Client it doesn't work. Using the same account on my phone works too.

Interestingly, in the meeting history drop down, the meeting will initially show up as usual (ie with the name "Weekly Information Meeting"). Then after choosing it, inputting the correct password, and being told the password is wrong, the name changes on the history drop down to the generic "Zoom Meeting".

This seems to be related to the Client itself. Interestingly, it happens most often after I update Zoom. Also, after a time, maybe an hour, often I can connect successfully with all the same credentials.

You could share the Meeting join link with your users after enabling 'Embed passcode in invite link for one-click join' at which when sharing your meeting join link with the participants, they should just click on the link and it will redirect them into the meeting without a password (because its embedded)

2. The only reason I mentioned the password being 1 character was to show that it is not just a problem with entering the password incorrectly. (It should be noted this problem has happened with longer passwords as well)

3. It's not restricted to just one host, leading me to believe that it's not a problem with the host's settings. In addition, using my wife's computer (also windows 10, same zoom version as me, both of the up to date) I'm able to get into the meeting just fine.

4. I have not had this problem when clicking on a direct link (in email, etc), maybe because then there is no need to enter the password. However, in most of the zoom meetings I attend, the host cannot send an invite, there are too many people and it's a meeting open to the public. That is out of my hands. I must enter the zoom ID and password.

5. Since the history of the zoom meeting still shows up with the correct number, but with the name of the meeting changed (to just 'zoom meeting'), it makes me think there is some problem with a cache issue on the windows version. On my phone I can clear the cache easily, but there seems to be no way to do so on windows. I can clear the history (which does not fix the problem as stated above)

We are having the same problem and it does look like a client problem. I can not log in using the password from another organization but if i go to a browser it allows me to log in but then lose my "profile settings, backgrounds etc" Updating the client (and other troubleshooting) does not resolve. Any thoughts from Zoom?

I have one client (student) who often (but not always) has the meeting password refused. When I email her a link to connect directly, she receives a message that the address is invalid. She is the ONLY client that has this problem. Also, where do you find the "check for updates" section now? So frustrating!

I had this similar issue today which is how I found your comment because I was invited to join a meeting and I had the correct ID and password and was logging in through my PC and it kept saying the password was incorrect but when I logged in through my tablet it allowed me to log in to the meeting.

How can you reach anyone at Zoom to fix these problems? This forum just has people repeated the same problem with no change ever happening. My own personal password is rejected every time I log in. My password is remembered by Chrome and is exactly right everytime. But I have to reset everytime. Why? I have NOT FORGOTTE N my password. This is a programing problem where my current password is rejected. I can even duplicate this within minutes. If I go out and come back I will get "Wrong email or password" even though I just reset it and neither is wrong. It is such a waste of time resetting my password every day. Why is Zoom so unresponsive? Mindless FAQs and chat room visits result in no action as exhibited by this thread. No attempt by Zoom to fix the problem at all is posted here. Does anyone know how to escalate a problem to Zoom to get actual help rather than just dithering away on Community sites?
