How to stop the pw asking from iCloud

After the iOS8 upgrade, every so often a pop-up message asking me for iCloud password shows out. The password I do not have.
The problem is that I never activate iCloud but my son did it with an ID different from mine.
I was told there are only two ways to resolve this problem:
Access the email account associated with the ID as in the typical "forgot password" procedure. Login iCloud and change the ID. However, I cannot access the email account and my son forgot it after he had his fun.
Provide the proof of purchase from two/three years ago.
The things bother me are:
Short time after my iphone purchase, I applied my apple id to get apps from the itune store. I used to believe this is only apple id I need and I can stay away from any apple service I do not need.
Why my son can activate the iCloud service without knowing the password to my apple id?  When I purchased a free app, I had to provide my apple id/password. Why does a service that can lock my iphone require less?
I trusted Apple service to be simple and friendly. Why I as the original owner of the iphone can not remove the iCloud service unconditionally? Specially, I bought it thru my mobile service provider.

  • How to stop the tab bar from automatically hiding itself?

    ive only found how to stop the address bar from disappearing and everyone with the tab problem seems to have posted this over a week ago and still hasnt been fixed yet if noone has a fix im out and done with firefox they can suck a fat one
    why add this feature! i can understand the address bar but not the tabs all you have to do to hide it was push the tab button again and its gone was that so fucking hard that you had ruin a perfectly fine browser

    Hello,
    In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and facilitate future improvements to Firefox, the option to hide the tab bar was removed.
    Fortunately, this can easily be resolved if you desire the keep tabs hidden. You can install "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/ Hide tab bar with one tab]", an extension hosted on Mozilla's add-ons site, which will restore the ability to hide the tab bar.
    Thank you and I hope this helps!

  • How to stop the option key from changing tools when trying to subtract from a selection?

    How to stop the option key from changing my tools when I am trying to subtract from a selection?
    I'm running CS3 on Mac OS Leopard, and the automatic tool switching slows me down, but even preferences doesn't show a way to turn this off.
    Thanks for your help.

    With any marquee tool, JUST holding down the option key should not switch tools. You need to explain the problem much more carefully, It's completely impossible to tell from your description whats going wrong.
    automatic tool switching
    The only preference related to this, is to do with the SHIFT KEY - "use Shift key for tool switch".

    Make sure to quit all open applications before logging out.
    Your proflie indicates your Mac has v10.7.1 installed.
    If that is the case, updating your system software will help as far as functionaly as well as security.
    Install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)
    Then restart your Mac.

    Anyone know how to stop the "activate" box from blocking usage of a perfectly legal copy of Ilisten? I want to help my dyslexic grandson and this box, including the activation code, keeps popping up, keeping me from using the software. I activated the program and did a few profile building sessions, now it pops up each time I start the program, blocking me from using it. Help sure would be appreciated.
    Jay

    I looked at your post this morning and did not know enough to respond, other than to find out that links to iListen now go to newer, renamed software. Considering it's been nine hours with no response, I'm suspecting few people here have experience with that software. You could contact the current copmany that used to sell that package and see if they have any archived support info.
    BTW: please check you entry for "Mac OS" in your profile. It says iOS, which cannot run on an iMac. iOS is the system for phone and iPads but can't run on Mac computers. Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and see what it says about the OS version. Should look like this:
    If the "Processor" line says "Intel," you have a newer Mac than the old modles this forum covers; Intel iMac have their very own forum here:

  • How to stop the "sign in to icloud" from popping up?

    How can I stop the "sign in to icloud box from popping up all the time? I have an iphone 6.

    This has to be the most annoying thing in Illustrator and has been for the years I have been using it. I click on that icon to switch between having the stroke and fill selected, and it pops up the color panel in place of my swatches panel which is what I need.
    Let's say I have a swatch in my swatches panel that I want to use as the stroke for an object. I currently have the fill selected to work with, so I go down and click the stroke icon (shortcut for that is X but I prefer not to use the shortcut for that function). I then move back over to where my swatches panel is normally, but the damn color panel is covering it now! So I need to make an extra click back over to the swatches panel so I can use it. Such a minor little thing but so incredibly annoying.
    I usually work with a subset of colors in the swatches panel and when I need to use a color picker, I simply doubleclick on the fill/stroke icon on the toolbar. Thus, the color panel is completely useless to me in most cases.
    If I close a panel, any panel, it should not pop up unless I specifically go to the Window menu to enable it.

  • How to stop the AppleTV remote from affecting the desktop screen?

    When someone else is using AppleTV, and scrolling with the remote, the desktop screen often goes dark and goes to the AppleTV menu. Really annoying when someone else is trying to work. Is there a way to unconnect the two? Why does the remote also affect the desktop screen...Sorry to be obtuse, maybe there is a good reason I haven't thought of? How to stop it? Thanks.

    You don't need the IR receiver to be on to sync. Syncing is done through the network (a cabled connection or wireless network)
    You can turn of your Mac's ability to respond to remotes:
    1. Open System Preferences
    2. Click Security under the Personal category
    3. Check Disable remote control infrared receiver
    If you want it to respond to a remote, instead of disable you can pair it with a single remote, and then it will only respond to that specific remote.

  • How to stop the "Tab Key" from acting as a "SEND" button in gmail

    Since installing the Firefox update today, when I hit the keyboard Tab Key in the course of composing an email on gmail, it sends the (!unfinished!) message. I need to disable this "feature". How?

    In the compose window if you hit tab you are tabbing through the buttons on the compose window. You have to hit space in order to sent the message. Please check to see if there is a feature in your gmail that is added to the default. Or see if there is an add on that has saved this feature. You can try safe mode to eliminate the add on theory [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]] and reset Firefox if it is a saved application preference.

  • How to stop the ATV asking for Apple ID Password

    I just upgraded to 6. Now everytime the ATV boots up (I turn it off at night) it asks for my AppleID password. This never happened under 5.x. I do not rent or buy iTunes stuff from my ATV. I do not want to enter my password because I never had to under 5.x, how can I stop it asking for my password?

    In case anyone else gets this I hit cancel once and it has never come back.
