Icloud ios8 keeps asking for log in

my iCloud iOS 8 on my new iPhone 6 plus, that I've had for a month, keeps asking for my login not only mine. (also the person I share my cloud family share). I've also experience or my phone partners 6plus has used cellular data instead of the Wi-Fi that it's on, it's strange because I am on the same Wi-Fi with my 6plus so I know that's working. both bought a month ago at ATT. ATT has no information.

If you still have the old MBA, consider wiping the new one, reinstalling the OS using the recovery mode, and on first boot, use the Setup Assistant to do the migration. See Pondini's Setup New Mac guide for details. Eliminates all keychain and ownership issues.

ICloud Account Keeps Asking for Password in System Preferences

I am extremely frustrated with iCloud. I'm on Lion 10.7.3.
Two main issues:
System Preferences, iCal, and Contacts keeps asking for my iCloud account password over and over again. It will not retain the password whne I type it in. I know the password is correct because when I type it in everytime the services update and retain the password until I log out and log back in.
I tried to delete the iCloud account and set it up again to see if that would fix the issue, but I cannot delete the account. In System Preferences I have tried to delete the account using the minus sybmol at the bottom and have tried the "Sign Out" method. The account disappears until I restart System Preferences. I tried deleting the account and rebooting, but it is still there.
Any ideas? I would love to know if there is a way to override all this in Terminal.

Your iCloud password is incorrect?
Are you using third party apps?

Iphone6 stuck in updating icloud drive, keeps asking for apple id and wheel spinning

Iphone 6 stuck in updating mode on icloud drive update, I have version 8.3, with optus, have tried reset, turning off and updated version , still spinning wheel and stuck.

Did you purchase this phone new, or is it a used device? It sounds as if it is asking for the Apple ID and password for the original owner. See this support link about Activation Lock, Apple's anti-theft device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818

ICloud Restore stuck - keeps asking for old Apple ID

Hello,
I've just gotten a iPhone 4S that I want to restore from an iCloud backup (I've had a 3GS previously). Unfortunately I'm running into problems as the restore process just doesn't finish. Some settings are restored just fine (contacts, messages, browser history, ...) while others are causing problems. In particular the photos & apps are not being downloaded. Apps are recognized but just sit on my screen "waiting".
I suspect that the cause for all this is that the last backup is from March 2012 (my 3GS died then) and in the meantime I've changed my Apple ID. During the restore it keeps asking for my old Apple ID, which is not longer active & I cannot log into.
Now I'm stuck since the phone decides to set the iCloud account to the old one and this cannot be changed as it tells me that I cannot delete the iCloud account during a restore is in progress...
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated! Unforunately I don't have an iTunes backup and I really don't want to lose my data (especially the photos).
Cheers,
Florian

The solution to fix this mess was to temporarily change my AppleID name back to the one that was active when the iCloud backup was being made.

Sold my wifi iPad and reset b4 selling but new owner can't log into apple keeps asking for old( mine) Apple id

Sold my wifi iPad and reset b4 selling
New owner can't sign into his Apple ID keeps asking for old (mine) Apple ID
Thought would have erased with resetting iPad

Hello, your iPad is 'Activation Locked' as a part of 'Find My iPad'.
Log onto www.icloud.com, go to 'Find My iPhone'. Then select 'All Devices', your old iPad will probably show here, select 'Remove from Account'.
If there is no option to 'Remove from Account' ask the current owner to switch iPad off for a while, and remove from account should show in 5 minutes or so.

Since updating my iPhone 3GS on my friends laptop, it keeps asking for her iTunes Id not mine. When I log onto a computer it comes up with my Id but from my phone it's my friends. I don't have an option to change the user Id when it pops up either.

Hello, 34sandy.
Thank you for the question. This behavior is normal if updated on another Apple ID account holders computer. To change the Apple ID on your device, follow the steps in the article below.

Exactly which password are you inputting? iCloud looks for your AppleID password.

The icloud keeps asking for apple id but cannot get it out of the loop

the icloud keeps asking for apple id but cannot get it out of the loop. It will not let me delete or get to settings

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

TS4002 icloud keeps asking for me enter my password, when i do...it asks again and again..

icloud mail keeps asking me to enter my password over and over...very frustrating.

Here is the fix:
1. Shut down Mail. Next, deselect "iCloud Mail" in the iCloud preferences pane in System Preferences FIRST. If not, it will automatically pre-populate the wrong p9X.mail.me.com server names again overwriting all your work.
2. Now restart Mail and go to preferences. If "iCloud" mail is still showing, select it and click on the "-" at the bottom to remove it.
3. Now follow the instructions here: http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudmail.html (disregard that this is for Snow Leopard, it DOES work on Lion) paying attention to the use of the "option" key when needed to avoid Mail automatically "creating" the account and closing out the preferences window.
4. Ensure the correct server names of "imap.mail.me.com and smtp.mail.me.com" are still there and close Mail preferences and now select "get mail". It may prompt one last time for your iCloud password, enter it and you are done.
Good Luck.

Hello vfrio,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you edited your existing Apple ID to a new email address and changed the password as well. To change this on your computer, you will need to sign out of the old account and into the new Apple ID in iCloud for Windows. Please use the attached article as a further reference.
What to do after you change your Apple ID email address or password - Apple Support
Windows PC
Open iCloud for Windows and click Sign Out.
If you're signed out, sign in with your updated Apple ID or password. The data in iCloud will automatically appear on your device after you sign in.
If you're signed in with your previous Apple ID:
Click Sign Out. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked if you want to make copies or delete iCloud data (Contacts, Calendar, Reminders, Bookmarks, Photo Stream) from your PC. Click Delete. Your data will remain in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Sign in with your updated Apple ID or password.
Have a great day,
Joe

I cannot retrieve my emails on my Mac Book Pro operating on 10.7.3 Icloud was already workingit keeps asking for password and when i put correct password in it keeps asking for it again and again. This has just started today

Though it's unlikely to be wrong if things were set up properly in the first place, as a check go to Mail Preferences>Accounts and check that the server setting for IMAP (incoming) is imap.mail.me.com (not just mail.me.com).
Your next step either way would be to go to System Preferences>iCloud and sign out, then sign back in again. (You can ignore warnings about data disappearing - your calendars etc. will disappear when you sign out but reappear when you sign back in).

Why does ipad keep asking for icloud every second?

why does ipad keep asking for icloud every second?

Hey there mcsafranek,
It sounds like you are getting prompted for your iCloud password very frequently. I would sign out of your iCloud account in Settings first:
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
From: iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
Then close all the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
When you have done that and restart the phone, sign back into iCloud, and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists could you relay what exactly the message says when it pops up?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

Mail keeps asking for passwords; incoming server in iCloud is dimmed, not available

Mail on all accounts (iCloud, gmail and comcast) keeps asking for passwords; many Internet sites that used to be filled in from Safari are blank and require password. In Mail accounts, the incoming server for MobileMe/iCloud is dimmed. I can check mail on the Internet but it's kinda handy to have it delivered to the iMac. What's up?

Got the axect same problem. HELP!!! Using me.com still tho. But I want to use mail again!!!
UPDATE!!!
Okay, it is working now. I removed my account in Mail and upgraded to iCloud. Now it is working.

IOs 8.1 Mail app keeps asking for iCloud password

Since the update to iOs 8.1 i have a problem with my mailbox.
Every time i want to create a new mail, it asks me for my iCloud password.
This happens on my iPhone (6) and iPad (Air) while im in my iCloud inbox, Gmail inbox, or just the general overview.
Whenever i press the create new mail icon it will ask for my iCloud password.
- When i give the iCloud password (correct one) it wont ask for it again in the next 15 mins
- When i dont give the iCloud password (cancel) i can just send mails but it will ask for the password whenever i create a new mail.
What i did:
- Remove iCloud account > reboot > Add iCloud account > didnt solve the problem
- Remove Keychain > didnt solve the problem
- Remove iCloud photo's > didnt solve the problem
- Remove iCloud mail > still asks for the iCloud password.
- Remove iCloud > solves the problem but i dont want to remove iCloud
- Disabled all iCloud options, (mail, contacts, etc) > didnt solve the problem
- Disabled 2 step verification > didnt solve the problem
Everytime i want to create a new mail, u see the phone/pad use the "syncing icon" 3x 5 seconds, maybe a link here?
Anyone else with any ideas that i can try?

That's interesting that it didn't start to happen after a while on your work iPad. I just tried my iPad this evening and I'm getting the same iCloud password popup message when I try to create a new mail or enable "Contacts Only' in Airdrop.
I still think it's a problem with our iCloud accounts. Some flag in the system isn't set or something for some reason. I don't even have mail switched on in my iCloud account so there is no valid reason why Mail.app would try and authenticate to iCloud just because we create a new email.
Signing out of iCloud fixes the issue for me (not that it's a valid long term solution) so that points the finger directly at a setting on my server side iCloud account I think.

IOS 6 keeps asking for password to update apps when it shouldn't. Is it my phone?

Isn't updating apps supposed to not require an iTunes password anymore in iOS 6? I thought that was the case, but my iPhone 4 keeps asking for one when there is an update available. Does anybody know what to do besides restoring? Anyone else having similar issues?

I have a hunch that, for me, the issue is because I have two different accounts synced. I have my parent's account for the App Store and my personal account linked to iCloud and all those services. I've noticed that when I update apps, I would sometimes have to log out of one and into the other because one app might be on one account and not the other. I'll get around to moving everything to one account sooner or later, but it isn't an immediate issue to me. Just a minor inconvenience.
