Could it be an error with my main pool due to payouts being Frozen on my litecoinpool account because I just added a new lite coin wallet address and the account says that anytime payout address is modified all payouts are suspended for 24hr?
no - that would affect payouts not your miner working.
the password it wants is for the miner not the password you use to log into the pool with - if you do not have a pool password you will still need to put something like x or 123 as a default one. This miner software does not seem to like it if you leave it blank.
you are using litecoinpool.org, correct?
direct from their page
Getting Started
Understand how mining works. If you are new to mining, read our Beginner's Guide. Make sure you understand that you will never make a profit out of CPU or GPU mining, and that ASIC hardware is required.
Create a pool account. Register here.
Configure your miners. Connect your miners to the server(s) closest to you (most miners allows you to specify more than one URL for failover):
stratum+tcp://litecoinpool.org:3333 (Europe)
stratum+tcp://us.litecoinpool.org:3333 (US East Coast)
stratum+tcp://us2.litecoinpool.org:3333 (US West Coast)
stratum+tcp://ltcpool5brio2gaj.onion:3333 (Tor hidden service)
If connecting from East Asia, the US West Coast address should be preferred.
If you are behind a firewall, you can also access Stratum on port 8080.
Mind that some software (notably some versions of the web interface of Antminers) requires you to omit the protocol prefix (stratum+tcp://) when entering URLs.
The default worker credentials are:
Username: your_username.1
Password: 1
If you want, you can create additional workers on your account page, with names and passwords of your choice. Both the username and the password are case-sensitive. Never use your account password for any of your workers.
so the default miner password is "1" and that is what you would need to put in the Apollo gui
. Haven't touched them in months
