Should be
Authorization with %1$s failed. Try again?
Using Maybe is not offering the user an actionable solution..
Didn't succeed, maybe stuff monkeys up your behind?

I don't know... "maybe" is nice and gives a touch of humanity to the app - reminds me of Eddie from HGTG:
Eddie the Computer: I am pleased to inform you that two nuclear missiles are now headed this way... if you don't mind, I am going to take action.
Zaphod: COMPUTER DO SOMETHING!
Eddie the Computer: Ok, switching to manual mode... good luck!
I'm not sure about the monkeys suggestion... seems ambiguous and is likely to result in questions as to whether they are for sexual pleasure or to prevent constipation. Maybe trying to sync again would be a more useful strategy?
