I’m using New Outlook. The first time I used it, it required me to create an app-specific password to access emails in my iCloud account. After I was able to access my emails, I turned off my computer. When I went back next time to access my emails, it told me again that I needed to create an app-specific password, which I did. After using it that way for a while, now it’s asking me a third time to create an app-specific password. Why is it not retaining the app-specific password?

I wish this was the problem. I use office 365 and the Outlook/iCloud problem is here as well.
I have had to set up my passwords six times now. This is crazy for the new outlook. It is taking so much time to reset everything. Please, I need help.
Yes I was using Outlook 2013. So many problems with Outlook and Microsoft I replaced my email app with eM Client which is superb. No problems and much better than the Outlook app.
I think I may find out the reason why my Outlook continously asking APP password. This is due to my Outlook version is too old. I have Outook 2013 version, Microsoft stopped support this version since April 2023. Now I have upgraded to Office 365.
So far, I don't see this problem again.
Not sure if you are using Outlook 2013 version as well?
