SharePoint 2013: Error updating managed account credentials
I encountered the following message when trying to change a password for a managed account:   Error deploying administration application pool credentials. Another deployment may be active. An object of the type Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPAdminAppPoolCredentialDeploymentJobDefinition named "job-admin-apppool-change" already exists under the parent Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPTimerService named "SPTimerV4".  Rename your object or delete the existing object.   The error message is self explanatory - Rename your object or delete the existing object.  I choose the latter. Powershell to the rescue.   $job = Get-SPTimerJob -Identity "job-admin-apppool-change"  $job.Delete()   Reset the password and all should be good.
