How do I get iCloud Password to stop asking for my gmail password?

Every time i start my mac iCloud asks for my gmail password. I find it intrusive and annoying at the same time. I have tried disabling a whole bunch of stuff in the iCloud prefrences with no luck. I have no idea why it is even asking to begin with.

Confirmation of what command are you referring to?
You can set the mail preferences so that trash is not stored in the trash, but deleted immediately.
Most apps have preference settings to not ask for confirmation, such as Trash. Have you looked carefully at the preferences?
Which windows ask you for confirmation requests when closing? Are you referring to 3rd party software? Also closing is not the same as terminating.
Safari and FireFox only ask for confirmation, not when closing a window, but when closing the app, and then, only if more than one tab is open.

  • How can I get iCloud to accept my working Apple ID and password

    My Apple ID and password works for iTunes and App Store.  I'm trying to set up iCloud on my iPhone and iPad but i keep getting an error message that reads unsupported ID.  Apple ID must be in the form of email address (@me.com).  I don't have a MobileMe account. How can I get iCloud to accept my working Apple ID and password?

    I've also reset my password to my Apple ID. I still get the Unsupported ID and password.

    how do I get ICloud on my menu bar for email only? I have snow leopard so I do not have all the requirements for I Cloud.

    I have asked for your email address to be edited out. Posting your address in an open thread is a sure way to be bombarded by unwanted email, remember it will be here long after you have resolved your problem, for automated detection software to find.
    If you want people to contact you, enable others to see your email address in your profile.

  • How do i get my Ipad 1 to ask for a wep key insted of a password for wifi setup?

    how do i get my Ipad 1 to ask for a wep key insted of a password for wifi setup?

    "WiFi setup"?  I'm not sure I understand.  Are you trying to set up your WiFi network from an iPad?
    Anyway, the answer to your question is likely this:
    Go to Settings > WiFi.  Find your network.  Click the small "i" in the circle on the right of that line.  That probably has the information you are looking for (or the place to set it).

    How do I get rid of iMac always asking for login keychain, very annoying

    There is a utility called Keychain Access.  It is in your Applications/Utilities/ folder.  Keychain Access has tools to do "first aid" and a reset on your keychain.  Here are some Apple Support articles with instructions.

    Start by using your web browser to go to creative.adobe.com. Log in there with your Adobe ID.
    There is no serial number for subscriptions. You use your Adobe ID. Then there are options to download applications.

  • How can I get rid of the constant asking for PIN whenever my iPad has been sleeping?

    How can I get rid of the constant asking for PIN whenever my iPad has been sleeping?

    You can turn it off:
    Settings > Passcode > enter your passcode > Turn Passcode Off.
    For security's sake, I recommend changing the amount of time that passes before it locks as opposed to turning off completely:
    Settings > Passcode > enter your passcode > Require Passcode:
    Immediately
    After 1 minute
    After 5 minutes
    After 15 minutes
    After 1 hour
    After 4 hours

  • Tried to update an app and it asked for the password to my sister's Apple ID. I then checked to see whose Apple ID was logged in, in settings and it said that I was logged in. How do I get the app store to ask for MY Apple ID, not my sister's?

    Tried to update an app on my phone but when it asked me to give the password for my AppleID, it was asking for the password to my sister's AppleID. I went to setting and down to itunes&app store settings and checked which AppleID was logged in, but i found that it was my AppleID that was logged in, not my my sisters. I then tried logging out and logging back in again but the app store, regardless of this, still asks me for my sister's AppleID and I don't know her password...How do I get the app store to ask me for MY AppleID password, not my sister's?

    If this app was bought by your sister with her Apple ID, only her ID can update the app.

  • Sharepoint2013 Stop asking for UserName and Password

    Hi,
    I have Installed New sharePoint2013 Server , I face Issue that Sharepoint Site keep asking for UserName and Password aeach Time.
    I set as  windows authentication in both IIS and Central Administration ,
    and I configure The IE and I set Automatic Login with Current Username And Password and I put it in Trusted site  and nothing  change.
    I also have sharepoint 2010 server and when I configure it like above it
    stopped ask me for UserName and Password ,
    Can any one help me what maybe  the problem in SharePoint server2013.
    thank you,,,

    Hi,
    Try following these steps:
    Adding the site to Local Intranet Zone: 
    Navigate to Tools > Internet Options
    Under Security tab, navigate to Local Intranet > Sites > Advanced. Enter the URL of your SharePoint site and click Add. Uncheck theRequire server
    verification (https:) for all sites in this zone box and click Close
    Adding the entry to the Credentials Manager: 
    Go to Start > Run and type in control keymgr.dll to open the Windows key manager.
    Alternatevily: navigate to Contorl Panel > User Accounts > Manager Windows Credentials
    Select Add a generic credential
    Add your SharePoint site URL, login and password to the corresponding fields. If this entry already exists, edit it to have your login credentials. 
    Reboot the computer.
    If you are missing the Add button, you may want to modify Windows Registry to be able to save the password.
    Note: for editing Windows Registry, administrator rights are required. Editing Windows Registry is not safe and you will perform it at your own risk.
    In Windows, go to Start > Run and enter regedit.
    Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\.
    Find the DisableDomainCreds entry. A value of 1 (enabled) will prevent you from saving new credentials. 
    Change the value to 0 and reboot. Now you should have the Add button available. Note that 0 is the default value.
    Also check the LmCompatibilityLevel entry. It should be set to 3, which is the default value. If you have another value, change it to 3. If it does not
    work with 3, then also try it with 2.
    Reboot the computer to apply changes.

  • If i changed my apple ID password will this ask for my new password on other devices connected to my Apple ID?

    I gave my gamecenter account to my friend but now i dont want him to use it anymore.
    But he refused to sign-out so i changed my apple ID password,
    Does this stop him from using my account?
    Does it sign him out and asks for my new password???

    If You used the same Apple ID and password for Game Center that you used for all other Apple Services, yes he will need the password to continue to use the account. I can't swear to it, but I think that he will be prompted for the new password now since it was changed.

  • HT4865 How do I get Icloud to accept my new Apple ID and password and verify the new account?

    My old Apple ID will not go away even after changing it to another Apple ID and a new password.  How do I get The old Apple ID from popping up and preventing me from using ICloud?  My new ID and password work for everything else but I can't access anything I have stored on Icloud.  I want to just delete the ICloud account but it says I will lose everything that is stored on Icloud and it will delete it from my phone.  Please help me!!  It has been over a month!!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
