Incorret user name or password when setting up GMail on iPhone/touch
I bought an iPod Touch and was trying to hook it up to my gmail account, but kept getting “The user name or password for “imap.gmail.com” is incorrect”. I tried going through the official GMail setup but to no avail.
Triple checked to make sure IMAP support was enabled, still nothing.
Then I stumbled along a post suggesting to try unlocking captcha on my account (https://www.google.com/accounts/UnlockCaptcha). I went ahead and everything worked fine afterward. Awesome!
thanks for that post. Finally got mine going again 🙂
Thanks heaps, you saved me a lot of time and trouble!
Thank’s man!!! Almost threw my iphone into the window doing everything as was written in Gmail help, thanks god and internet and you)

Thanks for sharing this! I have spent the past 2 hours thinking my Google Apps account had been hacked. This took care of it.
