Have to enter Wi-Fi password each time I turn my Apple TV "ON"

I do own the Apple TV for over a year now, however recently when I want to watch Netflix the Apple TV does not connect to my Airport Extreeme Wi-Fi (or Internet) without searching for the my network, selecting it and entering my Wi-Fi/Internet password. After entering password I get connected to the Internet until the unit is turned "OFF". Why is this happening and how can I connect to my network without searching for it and entering the password? This started happening recently and I did not make any changes or adjustments to the equipment. My "Roku" player which is connected to a differen TV in another room is playing fine.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Has anyone introduced another wifi network in the neighbourhood, or have you added any household equipment that might cause interference, have you tried another wifi channel.

I'd think you have a Keychain problem (Keychain storing passwords and the likes).
When you are being asked, are you offered the checkbox, "Remember this password in my Keychain"? If so, check and see if it stops asking.

I have to enter my master password multiple times (3) on startup. Is that normal?

Each time I startup Firefox I have to enter my master password three times. I don't think it's connected with any particular plugin etc. I have prety much the same plugins and extensions running on two machines and only have issues o this one.

You should check out the add-on "StartupMaster" to see if this addresses your use case.

B110 printer - do I have to re-enter the wireless password every time I turn it off?

Hi, I've just bought an HP B110 wireless printer, and set it up wirelessly on my Airport network no problem, but when I turn it off (by the power button on it) and on again it starts up as though it's brand new, loading, then asking for my wireless password (which isn't the quickest thing to type in!) and then telling me to install the software on my computer. Is there a way I can make it save the login (like any other gadget you can buy does!) because I don't like leaving things running constantly when I'm not going to use it!?

I also just set up an HP B110a. I have the same problem. I cannot believe it. It seems that every time you switch the printer on you have to enter you wireless network password and then you get instructed to put the printer CD in the computer and reinstall the printer driver. Of course you don't ACTUALLY have to reinstall the drivers every time, but you DO, it seems, have to fiddle around with the simulated keyboard pressing buttons dozens of times to enter even a relatively simple password.
Thus it appears in effect you HAVE TO leave your printer permanently switched on, which of course we do not want to do. Please tell me it's not true. Is there a trick we're missing?

Why do i have to enter my icloud password every time i watch a video

Everytime i watch video on youtube i am asked to enter my itunes password. This has been gonig on since i had a failed download on the itunes store. I have since then downloaded content from itunes with no problems

I have the same problem. It started when I upgraded to iOS 7.1 on my iPad. I have powered off the iPad and restarted, but the message pops up every day since I upgraded.

Will I have to enter my Facebook password every time I use their app, and how do I with Firefox?

Password issues using FB.

When you open Firefox navigate to facebook.com and enter your username and password. Firefox should then place a drop down from the address bar asking if you want to remember the password. Accept the saving of the password.

TS3988 why do i have to enter my apple id password each time i use my phone

I recently backed up my phone to icloud while it was NOT plugged into anything, now I have to enter my appleID password each time I try to send a message! What happened?

You're right, it's because you're a course creator or contributor.
You can just cancel this dialog box but you can't avoid it.

I have a Sirius subscription. Do I have to enter password each time I log in?

I have a Sirius subscription. Do I have to enter password each time I log in?

That would depend on the application you're using to access Sirius, I would presume. What application do you use?
If you're using just a web browser, I don't have a subscription to confirm but it does look like it would require the user name and password whenever you reconnect. Sirius support or a Sirius-releated forum might be able to provide additional information.

I have to enter the remember password login at least twice each time I open a new instance of Firefox. Is there a fix for this problem?

I have to enter the remember password login at least twice each time I open a new instance of Firefox. Is there a fix for this problem?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== installed 3.5

@the-edmeister
Thanks for the advice. In my case, it is sufficient to '''uncheck''' " Saved passwords".
('''''Preferences -> Privacy -> Clear History when Firefox closes -> Settings -> Saved Passwords''''').
Great to have Sync. :)

What's with having to change passwords each time one error is made entering it?

So I entered what I believe was the correct itunes store account password and it says invalid. I try again and it suddenly locks me out, now I have to create an entirely new password (one that has not been used in over a YEAR) and a bunch of other restrictions on how many characters, what types of characters are allowed, where the characters can be placed (oh no, you can't have three characters the same together, no matter how long your password is.)
I understand the risks out there, and I understand Apple is doing what they consider is best for the customer. But Appple, you really dropped the ball on this one. There are many disappointed and frustrated customers, including newbies, who chose Apple with the understanding it was more friendly than the "Other" platforms out there. ****, my government security isn't even this stringent!! Lossen up Apple, you're not doing your customers any good furiating them with complex passwords. Next you'll be expecting the general public to come up with their own password Algorithums!
This goes against the principal of Apple's reputation of making computers friendly for ALL users.
Listen, we know the risks. You make us agree to those internet inherant risks before we can use any of your products. We need Apple to ease up the the stringent security measures a bit and find other non-invasive ways to protect its customers.
I was so frustrated, I might even go back to the "Other" camp.

"Here's the problem: if I leave the network or power down (macbook pro), I'm told that my machine can't find the proper network once I boot back up. I have to manually enter the name of the network and enter the password each time in order to get access——then I'm back online again"
On your MacBook Pro, you might check a few things:
Open System Preferences and click on Network
Click on your AirPort connection on the left to highlight it and then click on the Advanced tab at the lower right of the pane.
Make sure that there is a check mark next to "remember any network this computer has joined"
Also check to make sure that your network shows up in the Preferred Networks list and that it is listed at the top of any other networks you make have shown.
You would also want to make sure there were NOT check marks next to:
"Disconnect from any wireless networks when logging out" and
"Require Administrator password to control AirPort"

Problem with having to enter password each time to gain access to network.

Hi there. I have just setup an airport express——connected to our dsl modem——as our only wireless network in a small flat. We just have two computers connecting wirelessly: my macbook pro (10.5.7) and my wife's powerbook (10.4.11). A very simple setup.
A few changes I made, using airport utility: I changed the MAC Address Access Control to timed so that both of our computers are on the approved MAC address list with "everyday, all day" access.
I also made it a closed network. And I changed the WPA Group Key timeout to under 12 minutes.
Other than than I left the settings as-is.
I was able to get both of our notebooks connected properly and everything seemed dandy as we were both online.
Here's the problem: if I leave the network or power down (macbook pro), I'm told that my machine can't find the proper network once I boot back up. I have to manually enter the name of the network and enter the password each time in order to get access——then I'm back online again. My wife's powerbook, however, doesn't have this same problem. And I've saved the network's password to both our keychains, so I'm not sure why this is happening.
Any thoughts? I'd love to be able to simply power up and be connected like a normal human being.

Have IMAC, Mountain Lion mail. Each time I open mail, the message Mail can't connect to the account "Google" followed by a request for a password of an acct that was previously deleted. How do I get rid of the message? Thanks

I have an IMAC, Mountain Lion. Each time I open my mail, a message box appears with the message Mail can't connect to the account "Google", followed by Enter the password for the user *****@gmail.com. The full account that appears is an account that I had previously deleted. I cannot prevent the message box from appearing. What do I have to tweak in order for this annoying box to keep reappearing. I have deleted everything I know of in Google mail and my IMAC mail. Thanks for any feedback

From the Mail menu bar, select
Window ▹ Connection Doctor
Look for the unwanted SMTP (outgoing mail) account in the window that opens. Double-click it. Another window will open, showing a list of all the outgoing mail accounts. The unwanted one will be selected. Click the minus-sign button to delete it, then click OK.
If there's more than one unwanted account, repeat.

I dont want to enter password each time i log on

I do not want to enter password each time I log on to my computer

Hunter1744, welcome to the forum.
If you are using Win7, you can go into Start. In the "Search programs and files" box at the bottom type "cmd" and hit Enter. This will open a terminal window. Type "netplwiz' next to the prompt and hit Enter. This will bring up a box titled User Accounts. Uncheck the box next to "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer." It will ask for a Password and to verify the Password. Once you do this, you should not have to logon with a Password in the future.
