My iPad 2 keeps asking me for my apple ID password? Why?

I'm not sure why but my iPad is always asking for my apple ID password.

Thanks

I had the same problem, and was able to pin-point one of my app called "LINE" by Naver was causing this issue. So for those of you who have this same issue and also have LINE, here is the solution from LINE support, which resolved my issue.
[1] Please update your LINE app from here:
https://itunes.apple.com/en/app/line/id443904275?mt=8
(If you have already got the most recent version please follow the steps below.)
[2] Please try the following steps:
1) Tap your iPhone [Settings]
2) Tap [Store] (On iOS6 this will be shown as [ iTunes Store/App Store]
3) Tap the box that starts with [Apple ID: ] at the bottom
4) Tap [Sign Out]
5) Start up LINE without signing in again and tap [More] on LINE’s main menu.
6) Tap [Settings] > [Stickers] > Purchase History]
7) Tap [Restore Sticker Purchases]
6) When required, enter your Apple ID and password at the pop-up window and tap [OK]
** Don't worry about lossing stickers that you purchased, I completed above process and all the purcahsed stickers are still there **

Why does my iPhone (4S) and iPad (The New iPad) keep asking me for my Apple ID password after I created an iCloud account and merged my old Apple ID with a new one?

I got an iPad2 for Christmas and went to the Apple Store to have them transfer over my contacts from my iPhone4S to the iPad2. They said they had to do it over iCloud and help me set up an iCloud account. But I had an old Apple ID (one without an "@icloud.com" name or other email address attached to it). When they did that it basically screwed up my whole Apple ID account. Now, both my iPhone4S and iPad2 randomly prompt me to enter my Apple ID password for my old Apple ID!, which they said does not exist anymore. So confused...please advise.

The email you should NOT have published, is your iCloud, not Apple ID
You Apple ID is a valid email address
This is a user forum, not Apple customer service.
I gather the security question did not work.
If you have an email address, why not use that?
If this fails you have to contact support and schedule help.

I changed email address, now my phone keeps asking me for my Apple ID password with the old email address as the username, I am still able to access everything I need to but it keeps popping up

I changed my email address, now I constantly get a pop-up asking me for my Apple ID Password, showing my old email address. I am able to access everything but it is annoying.

Try:
Settings>Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...now sign back in with your new ID.

My ipad keeps asking me for my apple id all the time!

My ipad always has this message saying my apple id then type in the password all the time randomly and it always says it, even when I'm actually logged in to this account, and when I go on face time and iMessage and I try to log in, it always comes up with that type in the password message when I already have! It's quite complicated but I have looked and it said if my apps are waiting which they aren't so it can't be that! Please help me so I can face time and iMessage again!

HI, I did sign out in apple ID. Still no luck keeps asking me for the wrong account details. I cannot even download any apps. Despite me having an account that I cannot use. Because it keeps going back to my girlfriends details, which I no longer wnat to use on my phone.
Would apprectiate any advice.
Cheers !!

Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

Why does it keep asking me for the login keychain password?

I am having a problem where my imac keeps asking me for a "login keychain" password. I type in my password every time, but that doesn't fix my problem. I need to know if this is bad or not, and how i can turn it off.
Thanks!

Hey there Daniel,
It sounds like you are being prompted over and over for your Login Keychain, and entering it does not seem to make the prompts stop. I would start by running First Aid on the Keychain with this article:
Mac OS X 10.6: Solving problems with keychains
http://support.apple.com/kb/ph7296
To check keychains for problems using Keychain First Aid:
Open Keychain Access, located in the Utilites folder in the Applications folder.
Choose Keychain Access > Keychain First Aid.
Enter your user name and password.
Select Verify and click Start. Any problems found will be displayed.
If there are problems, select Repair, and then click Start.
If that does not resolve the issue, I would next reset your Keychain:
In Keychain Access, choose Preferences from the Keychain Access menu.
If available, click the Reset My Default Keychain button. This will remove the login keychain and create a new one with the password provided.
If Reset My Default Keychain is not available, choose Keychain List from the Edit menu.
Delete the "login" keychain.
The next time you log in to the account, you can save your current password in a keychain.
From: OS X: Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password

Somehow my wife has ended up with some of my apps on her iPhone, and I have some of her apps on my iPhone. So, when I update apps on my phone, some of them ask me for her apple ID password. How do I get her apps off my phone.

Do you guys use the same computer with itunes on it? And the best way to get them off is to go into the Setting>Itunes & App Store and sign out of her appleid if it's listed there. Also just delete all of the apps from her appleid off your phone.

Iphone 4s constantly asks me for my Apple ID Password for no reason since upgrading to ios6

Since upgrading my iphone 4s to ios6 the phone constantly asks me for my Apple ID Password for no reason. I've gone into the Settings page and entered my password multiple time and this has not solved the problem.

Since switching from iPhone 4 to 5 I am having the same problem. I thought it only happened when I launched the app Line by Naver, but it's happening at other times now too. I have
1. reset my iPhone at least 4 or 5 times
2. erased and restored my iPhone twice
3. tried installing Line from a different Apple ID/Apple Store (ie. US vs. Japan) at least 4 or 5 times
4. turned off iCloud (in Settings)
Still no luck. The repeated password prompts are super frustrating.
EDIT: I was running IOS 6 on my iPhone 4 for a few days before switching iPhones, and I did not notice the problem then. Also, I thought somehow it might be related to an in-app purchase in Line, but also not sure about that.

It should be the password for your Apple ID you use on the ATV.

I can't use my Ipad because a pop up is asking me for my Apple ID password but when I write it and press Ok the pop up message keeps appearing! It doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad. I also have an Iphone and it is not doing this.

I cannot use my Ipad because Im getting a pop up asking for my Apple ID password but when I enter it the pop up just keeps coming back and doesn't go away. It pops up every second it doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad not even turn on WiFi! The account and pasword are correct in fact I can use them fine on my Iphone. I have tried restarting my Ipad and turning it of, it doesn't work! What is happening and what can I do to fix it?

Same problem for me.
1. Cannot connect to wifi as icloud password pop up keeps appearing.
2. tried deleting account. UNable to do so.
3. tried resetting password by logging into apple id through desktop as mentioned in one of the responses in another thread. Unfortunately the apple id to be reset is the same as being prompted by icloud and hence unable to reset the same.
Feel like breaking the **** ipad into bits. Stupid of apple to let such a bug in and not offer support !!

HT4009 Hi I am having trouble buying something that is in the app it keeps asking me for 2 sets of password and it keeps telling me it's wrong

Hi I am having trouble with purchasing an app that is in the app with the credit I have , it keeps asking me for passwords and I keep getting them wrong my new email is ***@Hotmail.com so I can not see the password .
<Email Edited by Host>

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple - I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post (it's not a good idea to post personal info on any public forum).
Do you mean that you are being asked for your answers to your security questions ? If you do then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

Mail keeps asking me for my Verizon POP password!

Hello,
The Mac Mail program keeps asking me for my Verizon POP outgoing password. It is so annoying because I have the password stored in the program's preferences for my Verizon.net account, and I know it is stored in the Keychain utility. I have never had this problem on my old mac which ran Mac OS 10.3.9, but I seem to have this problem several times EVERYDAY. I have my outgoing mail server as outgoing.verizon.net. I called Apple tech support about this, and they had me change my authentication settings from Authenticated POP (APOP) to Password. However, after saving that setting, the stupid program reverts back to APOP!!
What can I do so that Mac Mail will stop acting like it is suffering from alzhiemer's, and remember my password?

I suggest running Keychain First Aid on your login Keychain via Keychain Access.
The Authenticated POP (APOP) is for the incoming mail server, not for the outgoing or SMTP server.

I can't update my apps. I touch the "Update All" button; it asks me for my Apple ID password but after I enter it nothing happens. I tried to update apps one by one but same problem continues.

I can't update my apps. I touch the "Update All" button; it asks me for my Apple password but after I enter it nothing happens. I tried to update apps one by one but same problem continues. Help please

The app that does not want to update was it originally downlaoded with a different ID? If so use that ID and hte password you set for it to update the app

Ipad keeps asking me for itunes password

Everytime I open up my App Store, Itunes App, or iBooks App, my iPad immedatiely asks for my password. It is quite annoying. I don't have any pending downloads and I've already tried restoring. Anyone have any ideas?

You have tried restoring, was that completed successfully? If not, try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

My iPad keeps asking me for my password and I correctly put it in and it says I have no Wi-Fi connection but I have at least 2 bars on Wi-Fi. Any advice?

I got on my Music last night, and it kept asking me for it. I declined it, and it glitches out.
Then, I entered it, and it said it was wrong. But then I found out the password has been changed.
I used the new password, and then it said: Cannot Activate:Check your Wi-Fi connection.
I had at least two bars!! But it still didn't work.
Help?!?
