Cannot create snapshot

I'm trying to get a successful subscription push going on my database
publisher after having to alter a couple of tables. After making my
changes, I tried to start the snapshot agent. Normally, I see the
snapshot being created, which takes a few moments. In this case, all
I saw was the old snapshot, created successfully, which was probably
the one I initially did a month ago. I tried to go ahead and push my
subscription, but the status shows as "Deactivated". My question is,
how do I re-push my subscription to my backup database
machine/database?
You can reinitialize the subscription and then it'll pick up the new
snapshot.

Cannot create article

What are some things that would stop an article from being created? I am
running a helpfully simple Snapshot Replication on my pc. I am configuring
the SQL Server to do all three roles: Publisher, Distributor and Subscriber.
I am only replicating the Authors table from the Pubs database to a database
called Pubs_Copy.
The error messages is as follows:
SQL Server Enterprise Manager could not create article 'authors' based on
the object 'authors' Error 50007: xp_execresultset: unable to get a bound
connection back to server.
What can check?
You have a remote distributor which you do not have the correct
administrative password for.
