Can't access gmail in Thunderbird after changing gmail password

more options

I changed my gmail password and now I can't access my email via Thunderbird. I've enabled imap in gmail but it still won't work. I tried removing the account in Thunderbird but now I can't re-add it. I just keep getting an authentication error. I've tried the old password and the new one, neither works.

It's OK I've managed to get it to work by deleting the saved passwords in Thunderbird and then re-adding the account.
