Help! I have to keep entering my wifi WEP password every time I slide my iphone 4S on again. It doesn't store the password as it should.

The use of WEP is not recommended for compatibility, reliability, performance, and security reasons; WEP is insecure and functionally obsolete. Any reason you're using WEP? I ask, because you might as well not have any security at all, & this is most likely your issue.

Why do I have to keep entering my username and passord every time I log in??

Every time I log into my e mail I have to re enter my user name and password. There has to be a setting to prevent this. It onlu happens on this computer!!

Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
6. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
8. Reset the System Management Controller.
9. Reset the PRAM.
10. Reinstall OS X.

Why do I have to keep entering my Apple ID password?

Even when I enter an App i have to keep entering my Apple ID password.... This is very annoying so could someone help? Also, I have the iPhone 4S and version 5.1.1 so could someone please help.

once upgraded to iOS 6, it should stop prompting for every update. as far as downloads, if there is more than an hour or two between when you make purchases, it will prompt for a password. i have not found a way around this, but at least they stopped prompting for every update!

Why do I have to search for a wifi network most every time I use the internet?

Why do I have to search for a wifi network almost every time I use the internet?
We have Cox internet on a wireless router.
It doesn't seem to be able to hold the wireless connection.....even a couple hours.
The router sits on the desk next to the computer.
Thanks for any suggestions you have.

I don't have any trouble connecting to the internet once I choose our network from the choices.
The computer just can't remember it.

I just updated my iphone 4 to ios6 and I can't keep the wifi connection when the phone goes to sleep. I need to keep entering my wifi password when I wake up the phone. How do I keep the wifi on each time I walk into my house without reentering my password?

What? Do you work for Apple?
I have been on the phone for Apple since 5:30 Eastern Time today. We are still on the phone with them. It is 10:14 PM. We are going to get a new phone because the ios6 has major problems! The wifi connectivity is a serious problem. Apple is aware of it. More people need to do something about it. I am willing to start a class action suit against them. I have means to an attorney pro bono. If you are having problems using your iphone 4 or 4s with wifi and ios6...I suggest you spend time calling a senior advisor and get a new phone sent to you. They know they messed up but they can't fix it.

HT203208 Why do I have to keep putting in my security code every time I buy?

I have to put in my credit card's security code every time I buy something from iTunes. I seem to be the only person that has to do this because I've asked friends and they don't have to do this. Is there a setting I need to change in my iTunes profile?
Thanks in advance.

No Problem Demo.. They said to keep trying they would get back to me later this week, she had to talk to the tech people that has a longer history than what she has availabe.. We also ran the diagnostics on the ipad and all is fine with the firmware and the battery.
One thing that leads me to believe i am locked out of the servers, when i do a restore through itunes I get that little lock in the window just above where it says the servers are unavailable.
I have also been intouch with verizon and they said they would run some diagnostics on there end and would get back to me, that was 2 weeks ago.
Thats what I like about apple they're good on the follow up.

Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.
How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

Why do I have to keep entering my password to check my email?ios7 ipad

Ever since ios7 was released I have to enter my email password every time I go into the mail app on my ipad. I have multiple emails so I have to enter all of them every time. On my iPhone 5, the mail app doesn't give me a problem but the voice mail keeps making me enter my apple password.
It's getting very old and I've started going to my desktop PC to check email because it's so annoying.
Any ideas?
Thanks

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Why do I have to keep entering my itunes password on my ipad?

Can anyone offer any suggestions on how to have my iTunes password stored so I don't have to keep entering it after I enter my passcode to begin doing anything? To clarify, I have a passcode set up to begin after 15 minutes of inactivity. Once that happens, when I reopen my iPad, I am requested to enter my iTunes password as well. This wasn't an issue before the last upgrade. I have tried to find the answer on my own but I'm not having any luck.
Thanks for any suggestions on how to eliminate this minor hassle or let me know if I have to live with it.

Yes, I am connected to the Internet through my wifi. Everything is working fine with the e eption of youtube. I have reset all Internet settings and have tried synching to iTunes followed by rebooting. This is all the advice I have found although none of it has been helpful.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?

HT1689 Do I have to keep putting in my itunes password when I am downloading an app?

Do I have to keep putting in my itunes password when I am downloading an app?

You enter pw once every 15 mins. So you can download 1 app, enter pw, then download more apps after without having to re-enter.
You don't need pw to download updates, unless the apps were downloaded under a different Apple ID.
