Do I have to enter my apple ID every time I open Find My Friends? Annoying

Are you talking the app store on the iPhone?
If you are, it has to do with control of getting the updates and control of downloading new software. Sometimes there will be an update when someone won't want an update. Requiring the password would give someone better control over what gets installed. Or if there's new software, it will give a parent, for example, better control over what gets purchased or even just downloaded, in the case of a free app.
I'm not an Apple employee, but I'm pretty sure Apple doesn't consider it a problem. They tend to err on the side of caution, especially when money is involved. Requiring the apple id password every time definitely does that.

Do I really have to enter my apple id EVERY time I update or download an app??

Is there anyway for the phone to remember my id so I don't have to enter it every single time?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
There are two options, the default is enter your password once every 15 minutes, the other is a restriction that asks for it every time. If you haven't activated the restriction in Settings/Restrictions/Require Password, then yours is good for 15 minutes.

Had problem downloading Elements 13 so used the live chat - advisor downloaded a trial version, even though I've paid for full version. I now have to enter the serial number every time I want to use PE 13. Any suggestions? Many thanks

As above, live chat advisor downloaded PE 13 as I couldn't get it to work - but it turns out to be a trial version, even though I had already paid for full version. I now have to enter the serial no every time before I can use it! Any suggestions greatfully received!!

HT201303 It keeps saying that I used a different computer to access my account. I haven't. How can I get it to stop this so I don't have to enter my card number every time?

It keeps saying that I used a different computer to access my account. I haven't. How can I get it to stop this so I don't have to enter my card number every time?

It also says that "your account information has changed. Please review your account and email address and approve them for use in the itunes store." It happens EVERY time I buy a new song, a new album, anything. Even if I buy an album and five minutes later, without closing itunes, buy another one, I have to go through this whole process. It's REALLY annoying.

HT1529 I have multiple users on my Mac and I was wondering how you tell the system to retain all the user names so they don't have to enter their email addresses every time ???

I have multiple users on my Mac and I was wondering how you tell the system to retain all the user names so they don't have to enter their email addresses every time ???

Email addresses into what?
Each user should have their own account and password to log in. Each is independent of the other. So for Mail each has their own Mail account if they set one up in Mail.
That's the way it should be set up. Are you using a single account and allowing multiple users to use that one single account? If so then in Mail at least you could set up individual mail accounts. But everything else in the system is shared.

Could you do the following please.
Click "Start" and then in the search box at the bottom of the menu, type: CMD
When you get the link, right click it and choose "Run As Administrator".
At the prompt, type CD\ and hit Enter. This will take you to the root.
Next, type: net user administrator /active:yes and hit Enter to enable the hidden Administrator account.
Type: EXIT to close the command prompt.
Reboot the machine and you'll see an additional logon option called Administrator. Choose that and then hit Enter to boot to the desktop (the Aministrator account doesn't have a password by default).
Disable your antivirus to prevent it interfering with the installation. If you have AVAST antivirus, right click the orange icon in systray, go to Avast Shields Control and disable all shields for 1 hour. Otherwise consult this list for instructions on how to disable it: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html
Next, download Flash for Internet Explorer from here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax_64bit.exe
When you see the prompt, click "Run" to install it immediately.
After the installation completes, open a command prompt again and type: net user administrator /active:no to disable the Administrator account.
Reboot the machine and then open Internet Explorer.
Click "Tools", then "Manage Add-ons".
In the dropdown menu on the left near the bottom (see screenshot), choose "Run without permission".
Scroll down to "Adobe Systems Incorporated" and verify that "Shockwave Flash Object" is installed and enabled. If it's present, but disabled, click the "Enable" button bottom left of that menu.
Finally, re-enable you antivirus and reboot again. Check the "Manage Add-ons" menu to verify that Flash is still present.

I have a new MacBook Pro and every time I open Safari it locks up???

I have a new MacBook Pro and every time I open Safari it locks up???

Okay, then you have made a whole bunch of trouble for yourself. First, download and run this:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
and then you can manually remove as many bits of PSE as you can find. Not only the application itself, but also in hard drive>library>application support>adobe. And go to your username>library>preferences and delete everything there pertaining to PSE. That library is hidden. To see it, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the Option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account.
Then go here to download the installer and install it from scratch. You can never move an installed copy of PSE (except for the app store version):

Have to manually turn on airport every time I open my macbook

Every time I open my MacBook I have to go in a manually turn airport on. Once it's on, it connects with no problems. It started this fun new game yesterday and I can't figure out how to fix it. Does anyone have any advice? It will be much appreciated!!

Hi, have you checked in your preferences to make sure airport turns on automatically at startup?
Having just got my mum one I've been having a close look at how it works and I found the same problem. You should be able to set it in preferences to come on automatically , either system prefs or airport prefs. Can't remember off the top of my head.
Hope this helps.

Why am I being asked to enter my apple ID every time I unlock my iPAD?

For some reason in just the last few days, each time I unlock my iPAD it is asking me to enter my Apple ID. I didn't change anytiing in my settings. I did go to settings to find something that may be causing this and cannot locate anything. This is not a major issue, other than it is simply annoying. Not sure if anyone else has run into this and has any suggesitons on how to correct it. FYI, I am using an iPAD2 on the latest SW. Thanks!

Correct, the passcode lock is not activated. So I can hit cancel when it asks me for it and continue. It isn't stopping me from doing anything but like I said, it is just one of those annoyances I would like to make go away.
I am wondering if it has something to do with a game I downloaded from the Apple Sotre called Virtual Pool. Because somethimes when I go to add a new app, I get some error messga saying the store cannot download Virtual Pool right now when I never asked it to and I already have the game loaded and working properly on my iPAD. Would that be a possible cause perhaps? The iPAD thinks I still need ot download the game when I don;t so it keeps asking me for my Apple ID?

Have to reset the Apple TV each time I open it. Is it possible it is the result of recent transfer to iCloud?

Each morning when I open CalmRadio on my Surround System which come from iTune through Apple TV I have to reset the Apple TV to get the signal through. I tought it was the result of a recent change of my router but I just remember that I have installed iCloud recently. Would it be possible that would be the reason of the necessity to reset apple TV every morning? Thanks.

I'd say your router, iCloud hasn't caused me any problems. It may be settings or interference.
Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

Why do I have to reboot my apple tv every time I use it

Every time I use my ATV2 I have to reboot it, is there a solution?

have you tried to update the firmware of the router
and maybe making sure all updates for the computer and itunes were installed on the computer
and that the computers firewall is not blocking it

Since the last version of numbers in IOS 7 my documents have to be download from iCloud every time I open the app

Hello everybody. Since I update my iPad mini to IOS 7 and update numbers and pages, I can´t view my documents offline because they have to be downloaded every time I closed and open the app. I have restore the IOS from scratch, not using any backup, and the problems is still there.
Any advice?
Thanks

Try working through TS1717: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues to start with.
Otherwise, for general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
