Be sure you write down where the export went, as it may be hard to find later. But still do the export anyway for worse case recovery. Go ahead and create the new accounts, make the email one your “primary” email account and disable (uncheck boxes) in the old account.

It will allow you to retain your problematic account while creating the 2 new ones (1 for mail, the 2nd for contacts/calendar). Many more are allowed with the pay version (I have the free version of v6xxx).

You can have two active accounts with the free version of eMC but more than two inactive accounts. Do you have a populated calendar and contacts list in spite of the authentication error msg? If you are happy with the email, calendar, and contacts you have, I’d suggest you do an export backup first before moving forward just to be safe.īut try this too.

I’ve seen that error at least a thousand times in recent years including when Apple initiated the app specific password thing around the middle of June and doing the above fixed it. When you see the error you’re getting one account or the other thinks you have the wrong password. Use your same email you use for your appleID which I assume is the same as for the main email account. Then in the password field use your new app-specific Apple password. Then for iCloud syncing, you use the 2nd account but don’t enable the IMAP/SMTP tab, only enable General, caldav and cardav. If you enable these but have the p/w field blank or wrong you get that error msg. The mail tab is, of course, enabled but caldav and carddav are NOT enabled. They will all 3 sync with the Apple world.įirst, you have your main mail acct using your email provider’s login credentials. You need an account with those 2 to sync with iCloud stuff. While you can do this with a single account with mail (IMAP or POP then cal/cardav too) many including me use 2 accounts to keep it simple one for mail only, the 2nd for calendar/contacts. CarDav is for contacts and CalDav is the calendar.
