how do I re-enter an app specific password in a third party program?

Microsoft Outlook is asking me to re-enter my password to my iCloud email account. It does not appear to be in the keychain and is not displayed in my iCloud account online in the app-specific list. Is there a way to display it or copy and paste it into outlook?

Hey there rspencer629,


We understand you're trying to locate the app-specific password for Microsoft Outlook.


It looks like you've already reviewed Using app-specific passwords.


If so, and you're unable to see the password when using the steps to manage them, use the steps below to generate a new password:

"How to generate an app-specific password

  1. Sign in to your Apple ID account page.
  2. In the Security section, click Generate Password below App-Specific Passwords.
  3. Follow the steps on your screen.

After you generate your app-specific password, enter or paste it into the password field of the app as you would normally."


Cheers!
