Hotmail keeps asking for my password. My password was correct. I still changed it. It keeps asking for my password nevertheless. Not only is it very annoying but it also keeps me from using my iPhone properly because that pop-up blocks me all the time I have read some of the answers you have given to people with the same problem. You only answer by asking questions. Every time they answer your question you ask another question. So no answer to be found anywhere. Just more and more questions. If you have to ask me questions, please ask them all at once. I really don’t have time for ping-pong. Thank you.

    The only way so far I've found to get around this on an Ipad is by.

    Going in to settings

    Select Mail

    Select Accounts

    Delete old account

    Select add account

    Select Outlook.com

    Input email address (Next)

    Input password (Next)

    Hello, today Microsoft sent out information to me email regarding this. No more access to old systems, action needed and known issue. It's horrible, I even had problems logging in to reply here. Here is the link to Microsofts message today:

    "The safety and security of your information is top priority for Microsoft. To help keep your account secure, Microsoft will no longer support the use of third-party email and calendar apps which ask you to sign in with only your Microsoft Account username and password. To keep you safe you will need to use a mail or calendar app which supports Microsoft’s modern authentication methods. If you do not act, your third-party email apps will no longer be able to access your Outlook.com, Hotmail or Live.com email address on September 16th.

    So, no modern authentication no mail!

    Here is a long explanation.

    If you do this using your current email address and password.

    Go in to settings

    Select Mail

    Select Accounts

    Delete old account

    Select add account

    Select Outlook.com (Make sure you select OUTLOOK.COM not EXCHANGE)

    Input email address (Next)

    Input password (Next)

    You will be using modern authentication and no longer get prompted for password.

    My Ipad has been working OK since doing this
