How to remove continuous request for apple password?

In all apps, the pop up asking for password appears multiple times during the initial phase of its operation. I not able to find how to remove it.

Thank you...do I leave Auto. Dowenloads for Music and Apps OFF?
I would. Otherwise you may find yourself surprised with a large cellular data usage. This feature is still in beta, but is designed to automatically update all of your iOS devices, no matter where you purchase content. Me...I like controlling what gets installed on my devices & what doesn't.

How to stop endless requests for Mail password?

My PowerBook G4 15" with OS 10.58 constantly asks for password. How do I stop this?

I was able to stop this behavior on another person's Tibook by deleting the Keychain with Keychain Access app and starting a new one. I think I also deleted the Mail accounts and started those anew. This was not a problem with an IMAP account, so everything was retained and rebuilt. Be sure to check mark any dialog that asks whether to save this password in my Keychain.
Your plan may differ if you have POP mail accounts, or an extensive Keychain with many other passwords that are hard for you to remember and reenter. You probably don't want to lose archived POP mail messages. I would certainly try to archive all mailboxes before experimenting, in case everything in Mail disappears. Better to clone your whole drive and/or a Time Machine backup (which you should do anyway). You can also try deleting Keychain entries only related to Mail, as well as the command for Keychain First Aid.

Something keeps trying to download on my mac and I don't know what it is. It is not in the apple store and just comes out nowhere and request for my password to download something and I don't know what it is. How to make this stop?

Erica,
     I can, with 99.99% certainty, tell you that you are absolutely right in not wanting to download or install this "Helper," whatever it is (but we can be equally certain it would not "help" anything).
     I cannot comment as to Oglethorpe's recommendation of 'adwaremedic'; I am unfamiliar with it. His links to the Apple discussion and support pages warrant your time and attention.
     It might be really simple -- Trying looking in your Downloads folder, trash anything that you don't know with certainty is something you want to keep, and then Secure Empty your Trash. Then remove the AdBlock extension, LastPass, and Web of Trust extensions to Safari and re-boot. If the issue goes away, still be extraordinarily careful in the future.
     Unfortunately, it's probably not going to be that simple to get rid of, in which case I'd then try the line by line editing in HT203987.
     I have no further suggestions (other than a complete wipe and re-install...but that's a pain because trying to restore from Time Machine would simply ... restore the Mal).
   For the rest of us, please post when you find a solution.
     Best.
     BPW

If you have a corporate Exchange account set up on the phone, the administrators can require encrypted backups. Try using your Exchange password.

How to remove previous owner's Apple ID request from App Store?

When I try to update an app App Store asks for the previous owner's Apple ID and not for my Apple ID. How can I change it to ask for my details?How to remove previous owner's Apple ID from App Store?

Before buying a second-hand computer, you should have run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test, whichever is applicable.
The first thing to do after buying the computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You—not the original owner—must do that. Changes made by Apple over the years have made this seemingly straightforward task very complex.
How you go about it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
It's unsafe, and may be unlawful, to use a computer with software installed by a previous owner.
1. If you don't own another Mac
a. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller—not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine is very old and has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
b. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for a MacBook Air. You should have received the media from the original owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To start up from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then restart the computer and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
c. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should start up in Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
d. Some 2010-2011 models shipped with OS X 10.6 and received a firmware update after 10.7 was released, enabling them to use Internet Recovery. If you have one of those models, you can't reinstall 10.6 even from the original media, and Internet Recovery will not work either without the original owner's Apple ID. In that case, contact Apple Support, or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to have the OS installed.
2. If you do own another Mac
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to prepare a USB device, then start up the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can start from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
3. Partition and install OS X
a. If you see a lock screen when trying to start up from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
b. Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive—not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
c. An unusual problem may arise if all the following conditions apply:
          OS X 10.7 or later was installed by the previous owner
          The startup volume was encrypted with FileVault
          You're booted in Recovery mode (that is, not from a 10.6 installation disc)
In that case, you won't be able to unlock the volume or partition the drive without the FileVault password. Ask for guidance or see this discussion.
d. After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. If you're installing a version of OS X acquired from the App Store, you will need the Apple ID and password that you used. When the installation is done, the system will automatically restart into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
e. Run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the original owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed—you have to repurchase them.
4. Other issues
a. If the original owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're irrevocably linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
b. If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
c. When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a lifetime limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an iCloud account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information. The setup limit doesn't apply to Apple ID accounts used for other services, such as the iTunes and Mac App Stores, or iMessage. You can create as many of those accounts as you like.

Itunes popup on mac requesting for my password, how to turn it off?

When I click the play button on my mac to listen to music it doesn't turn on because itunes keeps requesting for my password for automatic downloads. How do I stop this? It just started after I got my iphone.

@ Ivmedic... Disabling automatic downloads does not resolve this issue. I am having the same issue. I open iTunes and get prompted for my log in info for automatic downloads, if you log in the issue returns the next time you open iTunes same as if you hit cancel. Also you actually have to go through this 2 times when opening iTunes before it stops... Certainly a bug in the 10.5.1 (42) build.
Does anyone know a way of disabling it in the terminal ?

Hi Lutonpete,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are receiving repeated prompts for different “Local Items” keychain passwords and know how frustrating this situation can be. There is a solution to this issue however. Please use the steps and information in the attached article to resolve this issue.

TS4006 how can i cancel request for erasing iPhone?? i pressed erase an iphone instead of lost mode or display message =( i want to cancel this operation

how can i cancel request for erasing iPhone?? i pressed erase an iphone instead of lost mode or display message =( i want to cancel this operation
my lost iphone is still offline and erasing not started yet and i want to cancel this request!

You can't, but after the erasure the activation lock will still be in place, so the device will be useless for anyone not knowing your apple-id and password.

Repeatedly asking for apple password when adding security questions

when trying to download apps on ipod touch it asks me to choose 3 security questions (which i did 2 days ago when i first set it up )but when continuing to try and answer questions its repeatedly asks for apple password which i am entering correctly and doesnt seem to get any further and therefore i cant download apps.
Can anyone help?

I encountered this on my son's iPod Touch. I tried an 'Update All', but since he has one or two apps from his sister's Apple ID and she wasn't here to enter her password (which stopped the whole process!) I wanted to just update the other apps (purchased on my Apple ID). However, since there wasn't an option to skip an app, it seemed the only way to update the others (around 50 apps) was to click on all the update buttons individually. That would have been annoying enough, but fancy being asked to type in my password for every… single… app!
Absolute madness. Does Apple not think through these things anymore? They used to pay such careful attention to little details of the user experience. Very frustrating.

How long it will take for apple to verify my info to get the new software for free?

how long it will take for apple to verify my info to get the new software for free?
i have submit my request since 6 hours, is that normal??

from what i hear, it takes a minimum of 72 hours before you hear back from Apple.
but because there are a lot of people are wanting to get their free upgrades, it might take even longer now.
good luck - just be a little patient and your turn will come soon....

Try typing password really slow make sure there are a capital letter and a number somewhere in your password
If that doesn't work try changing your password to something easier.
