if you recently change your email
0:00:04.979,0:00:08.880
accounts password you'll probably notice
0:00:06.509,0:00:10.800
something your email no longer works in
0:00:08.880,0:00:13.110
the mail app on your iPhone or iPad
0:00:10.800,0:00:16.740
let's take a look at how to update your
0:00:13.110,0:00:18.780
email password in iOS when using the
0:00:16.740,0:00:20.760
mail app in iOS your email account
0:00:18.780,0:00:23.190
settings cannot be controlled directly
0:00:20.760,0:00:25.110
in the app you have to go into iOS
0:00:23.190,0:00:27.750
settings and then to passwords and
0:00:25.110,0:00:29.430
accounts here you can select the email
0:00:27.750,0:00:31.470
account you're having trouble with if
0:00:29.430,0:00:33.420
the mail app has noticed it cannot
0:00:31.470,0:00:35.610
connect to the email server it will
0:00:33.420,0:00:38.309
ideally have an option to reenter the
0:00:35.610,0:00:41.040
password do this and the problem is
0:00:38.309,0:00:42.239
fixed easy as that but of course things
0:00:41.040,0:00:44.670
aren't always that easy
0:00:42.239,0:00:47.309
sometimes the re-enter password option
0:00:44.670,0:00:49.230
won't be there it is funny that turning
0:00:47.309,0:00:51.300
things off and back on again seems to
0:00:49.230,0:00:54.420
fix a whole lot of things and that's
0:00:51.300,0:00:56.090
true here too try turning off your iOS
0:00:54.420,0:00:58.440
device and turning it back on again
0:00:56.090,0:01:00.390
check the passwords in account section
0:00:58.440,0:01:01.530
again and the Settings app and see if
0:01:00.390,0:01:04.140
there is an option to reenter the
0:01:01.530,0:01:05.909
password if there is still no option
0:01:04.140,0:01:08.790
there sometimes a hard reboot of the
0:01:05.909,0:01:11.430
device will work to do this on an iOS
0:01:08.790,0:01:15.060
device without a home button and the
0:01:11.430,0:01:16.950
iPhone 8 + 8 + click the volume up then
0:01:15.060,0:01:18.810
the volume down button followed by
0:01:16.950,0:01:22.170
holding the side button until the device
0:01:18.810,0:01:24.060
reboots and the Apple logo appears for
0:01:22.170,0:01:25.439
other Apple devices just hold the side
0:01:24.060,0:01:28.290
button and the home button at the same
0:01:25.439,0:01:30.509
time if you still aren't getting the
0:01:28.290,0:01:32.400
option to re-enter the password it might
0:01:30.509,0:01:35.369
be time to just delete the email account
0:01:32.400,0:01:37.590
and re add it to your device go back to
0:01:35.369,0:01:39.420
the passwords and account section select
0:01:37.590,0:01:42.000
the email account and there is an option
0:01:39.420,0:01:43.770
to delete the account at the bottom once
0:01:42.000,0:01:47.040
you've deleted the account simply go
0:01:43.770,0:01:48.720
back and tap on add an account if you
0:01:47.040,0:01:50.340
were syncing contacts and calendars
0:01:48.720,0:01:52.470
using the email account you are having
0:01:50.340,0:01:54.329
trouble with you'll be asked whether you
0:01:52.470,0:01:56.790
want to delete the items from the iOS
0:01:54.329,0:01:58.560
device as well either option is fine
0:01:56.790,0:02:00.479

be reading the account right back to the
