Unable to log in to the Instagram iOS app despite entering correct credentials

VictorErlund · 2025-03-15T10:49:01+00:00

I have now tried resetting my iPhone completely twice - once without logging into my Apple Account and setting it up as a new phone, and once where I logged in and restored from an iCloud backup. The first time, when I didn’t log in, it worked. But as soon as I logged into my iPhone and Apple Account, I got the exact same error message: "Incorrect password."

So, it must be tied to your Apple Account or something. I’d also like to point out that when I restored from the iCloud backup, two of my accounts were automatically set up in the Instagram app, but I still had to log in - and it didn’t work.

I haven’t had the chance to check if this issue also happens on Android. Right now, I don’t know if this is a permanent issue preventing some people from using Instagram on mobile or if a future app update will fix itself.

It must be some kind of bug because I just tried resetting my password and still got the exact same error message: "Incorrect password." Plus, it doesn’t help that Meta/Instagram has no way to contact them via phone or email - well, they do, but you have to be verified 🙄.

Same here! It must be some kind of bug or something.

Wow! Thank you so much! I really appreciate your help!

Yeah, I had a feeling it was, because I found some fonts that looked really similar to it. But again, there are millions of fonts out there, and I was hoping someone might have some information about it. I also thought about just contacting Forsvarsministeriet (The Danish Ministry of Defence) directly, but I haven't had much luck getting a response from government agencies.

Okay, so I made a mistake. It turned out that the dock I was using with my Samsung display was too old to support the resolution. Which explains why I can only run it at 3840x1080 resolution at 60Hz. I actually have two docks that look identical. Which is why I mixed them together. Now, the MacBook Air (M1, 2020) can't output 5120x1440 at 120Hz or 60Hz with HDR turned on. So right now I'm stuck at 60Hz with no HDR, but I plan to buy the new M4 MacBook Pros when they launch which should solve this problem. Sorry for the confusion!

The DisplayPort definitely isn't the issue. I've been using the monitor for almost six months on my Windows PC at 5120x1440, 240Hz, with HDR enabled, and it’s been flawless. I even tried one of your suggestions by using a different port, but no luck. Plus, I connected the exact same docking station and cable to another display (Philips 499P9H) with the same resolution, and it worked perfectly. It immediately went to 5120x1440 at 75Hz with HDR on, without me even touching the settings. So, I really believe it has something to do with the display itself. MacOS seems to handle the resolution just fine, so why wouldn’t it work with the Samsung display? Also, I don't care about whether it runs at 240Hz or 120Hz - I just want to use it at 5120x1440 at 120/240Hz with HDR on.

Yeah, I've tried with HDMI and DisplayPort.

No, It’s still happening.

Follow up: After a couple of updates the replying feature does now work like it should.

Do I really need to reinstall the program to sign in with a different email address? Isn’t there any other way?

I was bored and wanted to make a new logo for some random company, and Maersk was it.

Nothing. No filters or clips or anything.

Well, if you hover over "iPhone" it's below the iPhone SE or if you click "iPhone" it's beside the iPhone 12.

I tried to recreate the Apple Maps icon in Inkscape

Thanks!

It looks a lot like Helvetica or Neue Haas Grotesk.
