Is it possible to fix this?

The answer is Yes, it is possible to fix but you haven't posted any code at all that we can look at and make suggestions on how to fix. Please read the guide [How do I ask a good question](http://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask), especially the part on Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example (MCVE). This will help you solve problems for yourself. If you do this and are still stuck you can come back and post your MCVE, what you tried, and what the results were so we can better help you. — JeffC, Nov 08 '15 at 03:15

You should use an explicit wait. Have a look at the docs here.

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
WebElement element = wait.until(
           ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("Passwd")));
driver.findElement(By.id("Passwd")).sendKeys("xyz");

For a better explanation, do have a look at this answer of mine - Gmail login fail using Selenium webdriver. Showing element not found for password
