Wondering if anyone has had this happen recently, I have a BB10/ Classic running on the latest OS 10.3.3.1463 on Verizon
phone has been a champ until recently I have been unable to successfully log into my iCloud account for my personal email on the hub , nor have my iCal or Contacts been able to synch
I keep getting the following error message "your login information for IMAP server (p14-imap.mail.me.com) has changed or incorrect. please check your account settings

I have not changed my password or settings on my iCloud account
been trying to get this to work all week to no avail

any suggestions or help is appreciated

I periodically throughout the day get an error message syncing to Verizon Cloud.
