I’m using the railscasts authentication http://railscasts.com/episodes/250-authentication-from-scratch authorization. How can the edit user profile check password before saving the changes?

You should just be able to authenticate using the password entered on the before saving any changes. Similar to what Ryan has for create:
if User.authenticate(params[:email], params[:password])
# save changes
