We have an iPhone 14, with 18.1.1.

This did not work for us. Toggling off "Mail" did nothing - no prompt - nor did toggling it back on.

Our solution was to delete the mail account and re-add it.

Apple has a bug here. They may have tried to change too much too fast. Happens.

It should have been professionally tested

this is unacceptable from Apple

There still isn't a fix for this. My work uses Google mail for and now I can't use the Mail app because there is no place to enter the password. I downloaded the Gmail app as a workaround, but it's rather inconvenient to have to look in both places.

After "upgrading" to IOS18, I can no longer access my email. It says no password provided, Please go to mail account settings and enter a password.

I've entered my password, even changed it on the service providers website, still not able to access email.

Don't want to delete and reinstall app since it will lose the save data.

Help!

With my Yahoo mail account I was only able to reset the password by erasing the original account and then adding the account back in with the new password information plus any 2 factor authentication.

After updating to ipados18 I cannot reset email passkey

Go to your email provider on-line through a browser and log into your account —verify the password is correct

You can reset it there if necessary, making note of the new psswd.

You can make changes to the Mail on the iphone

Settings>Apps>Mail>Mail Accounts>Account Settings

if you have a SMTP server setting for your email (mail is kept on your server and not local on your device) the only way right now is to remove the account in e.g. your iPhone and re-create the account. As the password re-set in not working at the moment, at least not in the iPhone

Reset it on the email server that you originally used to set the email up on

I tried to use the recommended process but it did not allow me to reset my AOL password. Are there any other suggestions?

I wanted to share because I got a new iPhone and could not figure out for the longest how to update my passwords.

please try these steps:

1. Go to Settings > Apps > Mail
2. Select Mail Accounts
3. Tap the Mail Account you would like to change the password for
4. If you need to change the password, there will be a message/notification at the top to re-enter password, etc.
5. Click the re-enter password notification
6. Sign into your mail account and will auto-link
7. Repeat steps 3-6 for each Mail Account

note: if you do not see a notification prompting you to update the mail account then it is already linked successfully to your phone

I log into the service providers website and change it there, rather than trying like it is shown here.

I was able to update the outlook password through the calendars settings. Settings, calendars, outlook. Should prompt for updated password and updates for the mail app there too.

This does not work
