I'm using an .htaccess file that activates an .htpasswd to protect a file just for me and my web design teacher. Yet every time I use it it always brings up a 500 error. I'm doing this on a live server and can be accessed here

Look into the error-log files for clues

Thing is I used an .htaccess and .htpasswd generator.

In the same directory check for a file called error_log open it and paste the most latest lines in here.

It sounds like your httpd.conf for this particular host as the AllowOverride directive set to none (which means you cannot override settings this in .htaccess).
Try setting it to "All" and let us know if that works.
