HT5622 Why do I have to reset my apple ID when I dont use the ipad for a while

Hi,
I do not use my ipad everyday, and when I have left it 2/3 days I get a message to Reset my apple ID. Which means I have to keep making up a new password, does anyone know what I have to do to securely keep a password, instead of keep losing it. Thankyou.

An Apple ID is associated with an icloud account and/or an itunes account. Which of these do you mean?
By reset, do you mean having to re-enter the password or do you have to change it? If this is on an iOS device, I suspect you need to sign out of your account and back in. (Did you recently change your ID's password? That would cause your problem.)
For example, for icloud: Go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. Then log in again using the right password.

He "seller" resets the iPad for me to use, do I have to get it re-activated or purchase a contract/service plan if I ONLY ever plan to use the iPad for Wifi Only???

Question to all the pros..I'm looking to purchase an iPad 4g second hand. Once the "seller" resets the iPad for me to use, do I have to get it re-activated or purchase a contract/service plan if I ONLY ever plan to use the iPad for Wifi Only???

No you don't need a service plan to use wifi. Take special precautions to make sure the seller is the owner. Be sure all their information has been removed properly. If it were me I wouldn't give the person the money until the iPad is registered in my name. I've read too many horror stories of people buying iPads they'll never be able to use because someone else's ID was still on it.

Why do we have to change passwords every time we do something on the iPad?

WHy do we have to reset passwords every time we do something on iPad?

You shouldn't have to. It sounds like you may have content on the device associated with more than one apple id. If that's the case then, you may be entering a password for one account when you should be entering another.
I would suggest using only one apple id username on the device and delete any content associated with another.

HT1695 I am at home and have a wireless router on my DSL line. I have been using the iPad for about a month without difficulty and tonight it will not connect. I do not understand why and yes, I am electronically challenged so be gentle!

I recently purchased an iPad after using a laptop and PC for years. I use a wireless router connected to a DSL line at home and have been using the iPad without difficulty for about a month and tonight it will not connect to the Internet. There is not a problem with the DSL or router. I am using the laptop now. Could someone please give this eectnically challenged individual assistance?

1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again
2. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.

How to Restrict or Remove In-App Purchasing from an iPad

Why do I have to enter my Apple ID after an iOS update on iPad?

Every time I update iOS on my iPad, it asks me to enter my Apple ID to configure iCloud despite the fact that iCloud is already configured.
Why is that? It's a hassle, annoying, and doesn't happen on my iPhone.

You're right, it's because you're a course creator or contributor.
You can just cancel this dialog box but you can't avoid it.

HT4009 I would like to make an in app purchase using my $20.00 credit that I have on I tunes. I am using my i phone5. It does not give me the choice of using the credit that I have, only a credit card. How can I use the credit for the purchase??

Is Settings > General > Restrictions > In-App Purchases: ON (green)?
Some In-App Purchases works only with credit card.

Why does my Pages version 5 (Mavericks) quit unexpectedly when trying to use the template styles?

Nearly every time I try to use the template styling in the "Format" pane, the app will crash with the message saying "Pages quite unexpectedly".
By 'Template Styling' I mean Paragraph Styling, Character Styling, Bullets & Lists etc...
I only just bought this Mac so I have never had Pages '09 on it.
Please advise.
Thanks

I'm having this exact same issue. I suspect in my case it's an issue having to do with importing a Word document. Just to be on the safe side I ran through the validation of all of my installed fonts. They all checked out ok. As with @kuroshb I'm using the latest version of Pages on a brand new Mac.
It doesn't matter what style I select, the application quits. An example would include a body style of Arial Narrow Regular 15pt black. That's defined as a style. When I select that style the application quits.
How do I determine if the document is using another font other than what's already in Font Book?

Why do I have to log into apple id when buying a new macbook?

I just bought a macbook yesterday...
And the apple employee asked me to log into my apple id on a random macbook that was displayed at the store.
Why do they ask me for it?
Thanks.

Ask the store. I doubt if anyone here can answer your question. I have no clue why that would occur :)

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

Why do I have to enter my Apple ID password every time on the iOS app?

Every time I open the iTunesU app on my iPad I need to authenticate. I'm guessing it is due to being a course creator but is this really necessary?

You're right, it's because you're a course creator or contributor.

Why do I have to enter my apple ID every time I use my software?my new software is always waiting to be installed

how can I solve this problem

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.
