Invalid Apple ID Password on iCloud

Downloaded and installed everything sucessfully this morning, iPhone 3GS working fine with iCloud (@me.com). I also have my iTunes store ID (@gmail.com) working for Store. iPad will not accept my Apple ID password for iCloud, says incorrect. Store on iPad appears to be OK with gmail login. Restoring iPad now, but any ideas?

Ok, so it is working now on both iPhone 3GS and iPad. Backed up, restored iPad to factory settings and changed me.com account password. gmail.com ID still tied to Store and iTunes on both. Hope this helps others.......
And 4S will be here tomorrow, so hoping that goes smoothly.

I've changed my apple id password, however icloud still only accepting my old password. (though to sign in here, for example, it only accepted my new one). My Mac was stolen and I really wanted icloud to be safe! How do I get this sorted?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

FaceTime and iMessage not accepting my Apple ID password while iCloud and App Store already accepted them?

I cant sign in to iMessages and FaceTime while I sign in to App Store and iCloud with the same ID without any problem! Do they have different ID and password? If not tell me please what to do
Thanks dear buddies

Hi Friend,
First, Where are you located and what country did you buy your phone? Some countries have restricted facetime, ie middle east, UAE.
Check if you signed in Facetime with your Apple ID and password (Settings>>Facetime).
Check if you have signed iCloud in.
Check that FaceTime is not disabled in general/restrictions. If that isn't the problem try changing dns servers on your iPad.
Go to Contacts app and select the person you want call then tap Facetime.
Change your address for your currently location. If not works, change it for your native country.
If still not working, go to Settings -> General -> Date & Time -> Set Automatically: ON (Yes date time setting has been known to cause issue).

I am constantly getting an alert on my iPhone to enter my Apple ID password. I enter the password that I have always used when I first got my iPhone 4. Why is this?

I am constantly getting an alert on my iPhone to enter my Apple ID password for iCloud. I have been getting this since I got my iPad Air. I enter my Apple ID password and I get an alert that the password I entered is incorrect. Why is this happening? I have used the same password since I first purchased my iPhone.

HT204053 How do I combine my Apple ID with my iCloud ID so I only have one password for both?

You can't "combine" Apple ID's.

I changed my email address for iTunes & iCloud, but my new phone keeps asking for me to enter the apple id password for an old email to use for store purchases. What do I do to restore my backup to my new phone?

My iCloud mail account is messed up. My Apple ID and iCloud ID are not the same. My email address has changed. which I changed in my apple ID, but the iCloud is still referring to my old, non-existand account. Can't guess passwords and it won't le

Bottom line, I can'
t get iCloud messages on my Apple iMac, iPhone or iPad2. I dropped my original email account and went to gmail. I changed my Apple ID to this gmail address on the Apple Store, etc. I've also changed the Apple ID password a few times. This worked fine until this week. I believe I can get game messages (not sure all were delivered), but not iCloud messages. It asks me for the iCloud password, which none work, and then goes back to my old
apple ID and asked for a password. It asks me to reset the password, which I click, but nothing happens. How can I fix this so I know I'm getting all my messages?

Hi rjt,
Sounds like you did not delete the iCloud account on your device before you changed your ID. You will need to do the following:
1.     Sign onto Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the old ID (this is temporary - do not verify it, do not change the password): Apple - My Apple ID
2.     Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom to delete the account. Use your current password when asked, follow the prompts to complete the deletion
3.     Go back into Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the new ID (you may need to verify it again)
4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign onto iCloud with the new ID
Cheers,
GB

My old Apple ID is on my iPhone, but this has been transferred to a new Apple ID. The iCloud on my phone is requesting the password for the old Apple ID, but this no longer exists. How do I update the iCloud Apple ID on my iPhone?

Apple id password not accepted on icloud

why is my apple id password not accepted when I try to login to iCloud? The same password worked when I tried to login to support to post this question!

If Settings>iCloud is showing your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

After upgrading my iphone 4S to iOS 7 every time the automatic backup on my iCloud account start it requests to verify my Apple ID password.

Since I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 7 every day when I put my iPhone in charge and it starts my backup in my iCloud account, it request me to verify my Apple ID password.
Every day I have to put my password to make the backup start.
I have enough space on my account to make the backup.
I have an iPad 4, updated to iOS 7 too, but with it I don't have the same issue when backing up in the iCloud.
I'm only experiencing this issue with the iPhone.
I already tried to restore complitely my iPhone and turned off and on again iCloud.
Thank you for your help.
Regards

An update - it was just taking too long to copy all the data again to the phone so I stopped the copy. Then I was able to complete the setup of the phone and most of the data was there -- just not the music I had selected. Not a problem, at least I can make calls.
Next step will be to update the phone again (when I've sufficiently recovered from my annoyance) and add the music I want.
Otherwise, I'm okay with the interface. No big problems.

How do I retain my apps after I change my apple ID? Right now I'm unable to update any of the apps with the old apple ID. I get an error message about an invalid id or password. If I delete my apps and start over, I may lose the apps that I purchased...

Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to purchase them originally. Did you try entering your old password and see if that works?
If you need to sign out of your old account go to Settings>Store>Tap on your ID and sign out. Sign in with the new one.
you can also access your ID in the featured tab of the App Store. Swipe to the bottom of the screen and you will find it there as well.

I stopped using iCloud after another family member received all my contacts. Now I want to restart using iCloud. How do I prevent this happening again? We share the same Apple id password and credit card but different usernames.

I stopped using iCloud after another family member received all my contacts. Now I want to restart using iCloud. How do I prevent this happening again? We share the same Apple id password and credit card but different usernames.

If two of you shared the same contacts you were logged in with the same Apple ID. In order to avoid this you need to use different Apple IDs, and be using separate Macs or separate user accounts on the same Mac.
One or other of you should create a new Apple ID at http://appleid.apple.com for which you will need a non-Apple email address which hasn't been associated with another Apple ID.

Do I use the same password for apple ID and for iCloud?

I am not getting mail on my iphone or my ipad air!
When I put the password for my apple ID into icloud- it keeps reverting to another password. i.e. doesn't hold the apple ID password.
Is this a problem keeping the mail from getting to my phone and ipad?
DO I USE THE SAME PASSWORD FOR APPLE ID AND ICLOUD?
Help. and MERRY CHRISTMAS

What are you trying to do when you say "When I put the password for my apple ID into icloud- it keeps reverting to another password"?
Where are you doing when you try to enter your password?
