Always ask iCloud password after reboot

My hard drive crashed therefore I needed to transfer my data and files from my backup via migration assistant.
I believe t did something wrong and cause me every time I reboot the machine, a window pop up asking me to input my iCould password.
I understand it only asks me once, but is there anyway to solve this
Thank you

I tried that too, but it does not solve.
I think the problem was caused during the migration assistant, which asked me to use another user account instead of my previous one (of course I changed back to my old one) i.e. the old one was "abcdefg" , the software asked me to use "abcdefg2"

Screensaver always asks for password after wake

Since the update to 10.5.3, my screensaver always asks me for my password after I wake up my iMac. I have disabled the setting in the system preferences, but the password-prompt still shows up. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Many thanks in advance!

HT1349 Why does iPhone ask for apple password after rebooting?

Why does iPhone ask for apple password after rebooting? It just started to do that recently. I've had iPhone5 for several months now and it just started to do that.
Before I could reboot without having to type apple ID password to start using my phone.

Could be part of Apple's new security procedures that were implemented this past week.

Every time I launch itunes it always asks for password

Every time I launch iTunes it always asks for password. I have no pending downloads or app updates. Nothing. There is no downloads plist to delete, no preferences to set - Fed up wth this. Been searching for answer for months. iTunes Store help just gives the runaround.

Good idea, thanks, but no, that didn't solve it. Any other thoughts?

Ask for password after screen lock not working!?

Ask for password after screen lock not working? It used to work before mavericks, each time my computer display sleep I'm asked for the password immediately. Now it never asks for it?

From 2008 MacRumors discussion:
SOLUTION: Browse to Home>Library>Preferences and drag com.apple.systempreferences.plist to the desktop.
Caused by a corrupt user preferences file. On restart, you may find user settings have defaulted. Set up as desired.
Worked for me.

HT1277 Can't sync my icloud with mail... always ask for password

Can't sync my icloud with mail... always ask for password

You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
Snow Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

Keyring always asking for password

Hello,
I am trying to configure an auto login (gdm), but on startup the keyring thing makes me nuts. I emptied the keyring password and reboot, and it works for the first time. But after 2 or 3 reboots it starts asking for a keyring again.
When I try to empty the keyring password again, it asks me for the old password first, but it is not accepting an empty password as I set it before, but my root password.
How can I solve this?
Thanks,
S

If I remember correctly: If you create an empty 'login' keyring the gnome_keyring.so in pam will unlock it and replace it with the login password of the user.
Are you using autologin with root? I hope not.
What for do you need an unlocked keyring? Maybe there is a simpler alternative.

My computer is always asking for passwords

When I turn on my Mac it´s always asking for my iCloud and Keychain password. I don´t know what is happening, even if I introduce my password it will ask me again...

Have you changed your password lately? If so, you should reset your keychain.

Finder always asks for password in Documents

When I try to make a new document, to save something or to edit something in my \Documents folder, Finder always asks for a password.
Saving in another program to the Documents folder isn't possible because the program can't write to the folder and just says ACCESS DENIED (Final Cut Express).
I checked the permissions of the Documents folder and it says User (me) Read and write and everyone (No access). What should I do to make my Documents folder somewhat more accessable?

Odd, but it worked. Thanks! The folder now behaves as it used to.
But nothing changed in the Permissions, which I think is odd.
Shouldn't Apple make a easier way to do this?
ah, yes, that's a good point, oft discussed on this forum. the problem is that there are a lot of ACLs like those "everyone deny delete" ones that were preventing you from modifying items in Documents that are completely invisible from GUI. as a result you look at the permissions panel and think that everything is normal when in fact there may be a number of ACLs present. this is a terrible design decision by Apple. one can only hope it will be addressed in future versions of OS X.

Icloud not recognizing icloud password after a system reinstall and I cannot get into my ipad 2.

My ipad suddenly became corrupted and prompted me to go through recovery mode. I followed the reinstall process, entered in passcodes, and allowed the reinstall for my apps to take place overnight. However, now the Ipad 2 does not recognize my icloud password, yet this password works on all my other devices. The actual prompt is "Verify iCloud password: iCloud requires that you verify your password" Help, suggestions or advice?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Changing iCloud password after sending erase signal

I lost my wifi-only iPad the other night and it did not have a screen lock password enabled, but it was connected to my iCloud account and "find my iPad" was turned on.
After I sent the "Erase" signal to the iPad, I thought it would be a good idea to change my AppleID/iCloud password to protect my account, but after I did it I had a 2nd thought that by changing the password I might have made it so that the iPad wouldn't communicate with my AppleID anymore (the ID didn't change, just the password). I tried to change my password back, but of course you can't do that because Apple locks out old passwords from reuse :-(
So, does anyone know if the Find-my-iPhone will work if the AppleID password that was stored on the device when lost is different from the password currently set for the AppleID account?
I haven't gotten the reset signal back, so it seems strange that someone would have picked up my iPad and never used it online.
Thanks
Angelo

No.

CVS always asks for password

Whenever I contact the CVS server (over at Sourceforge) JDev always asks for the password to the server. Is there a way I can make JDev store this password in some way?
I use the CVS-executable in TortoiseCVS and also use the TortoisePlink executable as the ssh client. Everything works just perfect, it's just really annoying to have to type in my password for every little CVS activity.
Any solutions?

The user is in the best position to decide if there is a security issue with persisting the password in JDeveloper or not.
I had this problem too. There is obviously a conflict in requirements of security vs usability so really, you should warn the user but let the user decide how to configure it and let him take responsibility.
JDeveloper should interoperate with the user's environment, within reason, and not make him change it.
Note, the HTTP proxy login has a similar problem. Not every time, but often when JDeveloper goes to the www it re-asks for the proxy password.
I dont care if JDeveloper stores either password in the clear in its XML configuration files, as long as it remembers them. It can warn me but it should do it if I tell it to ignore the risk. Then I can get on with my development job rather than having to reconfigure my CVS server or www proxy which are not mine to reconfigure anyway.
Cheers,
Simon.

Cannot setup email account always asking for password

Just got the IPad3 and setting up my email account. I tried setting it up the same way as my IPhone. Had the email account and password entered but when I exit, it gives me a message saying that it may not be able to send or received mail. I don't know what else is missing from the setup.
When I try to open my email, it always asks for the password, entered the password again but does not open my email.
Please help.
Thank you.

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!

Ask for password after sleep but not after screen saver

Hi guys!! I have been using a mid 2009 Macbook pro since mid 2009 and obviously am thoroughly satisfied!! I have OS 10.7.4 Lion.
A small glitch that has been nagging me lately is that I have my screensaver set to on before my book goes to sleep. But I don't want it to ask for a password after it comes back from the screensaver. I want it to ask for password only when it comes back from sleep coz I don't shut the system down more than once a month, so only flip the screen shut when my day ends.
So essentially is there a way I can make it as for a password ONLY after it wakes from sleep and NOT after screensaver?

I'm not entirely in love w/ the idea of having to move all my data over to the other account. I might just deal w/ not having the screen saver ask for the pass. One other bit of info that may be helpful: This is the second time having this problem. The first time, it got fixed after the most recent intel osx update. I figured that apple had found a bug and fixed it. Then, w/o shuting down my comp, it failed to ask again. Is there any applications that could be messing this up? Any widgets that might do it?? If not, is there any apps that can switch all my pics/movies, etc over to the other account?

How to get Leopard to stop asking for password after waking from sleep mode

My regular userid does not have a password. When I boot the system, it goes directly in without asking for password. However, when Mac wakes from sleep, it asks for password. I just press enter.
Can I do something to make Mac skip over request for password when waking from sleep?
Thanks.
(The Mac is sleeping, not me.)

Open the Security pane of System Preferences and turn that option off.
