[Nfb-krafters-korner] OT: what to do if your password doesn't work?

[Tammy]

Cathy,
The main problem that  comes up is that when you enter on the Instructor’s name, people have to have a Microsoft account for the rest of the process to work correctly.  The password it is asking for is for your Microsoft account.  Just sharing!


For GOD so loved the world, he sent his only begotten Son.

I was asked to explain this on the Monday night chat by Linda and Joyce.
Here are the instructions. Even if your password is working fine, you might
find this information useful to keep in case you need it someday.

 

First, if you have forgotten your password you need to change it with your
provider first. Charter.net and aol.com likely have a way to change your
password on their site. Try to log in on their site and if you are
unsuccessful there will be a button to use to change your password.  

Different sites do this process differently, so I cannot go into detail
here.

Once you have your correct password you need to change the password in
outlook this is a long series of steps but here they are. If you have
difficulty, let me know and I can read the directions to you over the phone
while you perform each step. I am free most afternoons.

 

Once you have your password you must now change it in outlook.

To change the password Outlook has for your account, update the password in
Outlook 2016, 2013, or 2010. 

 

1.    Press alt to get to the ribbon. You want the file tab and if it is on
the home tab, press the left arrow once and you will hear file tab, then
press enter.

2.    You will hear info tab, press right arrow once and you will hear Press
account settings.

Your email accounts will appear in a list view. Select the email account you
want to change, and then press enter.

3.    Tab a few times until you hear account settings and press enter.

4.    Press enter on account settings once again.

5.    Tab until you get to the change button and press enter.

6.    Tab until you get to the field that says password.  Delete what is
there and type in your password.

7.    Tab once and press spacebar on save this password.

8.    Tab to test account settings and press enter.

9.    When you here close button tab once and you will see a list of the
tasks completed and if something is not working right, it will let you know.

10.                   If all is okay tab to the close, button and you are
good to go.

 

If you have a problem then we can go from there.

 

 

 

 

Have a great day!!

Cathy F
