IOS6 iMessage keeps asking to activate on boot even if already on

Hi all,
yesterday I updated my 4S to iOS6 and I'm experiencing a weird issue with iMessage: everytime I switch-on the phone, a pop-up asks me to activate iMessage, regardless it was already activated before the previous switch-off. I activate iMessage and all works as expected, until the next switch off and on: a pop-up reappears asking me the same question. This is first of all boring, second it implies every time a cost, as an international SMS is silently sent to put iMessage on.
Anyone having this issue?
Bye,
Andrea

Sounds like a defective phone. Take it to an Apple store or call for an exchange.

I'm having a problem where Firefox keeps asking for my Amazon password, even though I tell Firefox NOT to remember this password. In Firefox options, Amazon is clearly listed as a site for which not to save passwords.

Firefox keeps asking to authenticate to kerebos even though it is no longer

firefox keeps asking to authenticate to kerebos even though it is no longer using the xserve as a proxy, do i have to reset something in firefox or delete something so it works with a new windows proxy? can't seem to get past this as i can't authenticate as it is no longer using that proxy, so just keeps popping up all the time with cannot contact any kdc for requested realm . There must be a way to reset firefox to not look for kerebos? any ideas would be greatly appreciated?

Hi
When the Kerberos login window appears just click cancel. Firefox should then use the next authentication mechanism it can or it won't bother if that's all there was. You can 'reset' Firefox by removing the Firefox folder from /Users/home/Library/Application Support. Relaunch the application afterwards.
Don't trash the moved folder as you may want to reinstate the Bookmarks.html? If you do it should be fairly obvious to you as to what you need to do. If you don't want the bookmarks trash the folder.

Ok, finally got it fixed !
Here's what was causing the issue, and what I did to fix it :
I had free content in my iTunes download queue that I got from the "iTunes 12 days of Christmas" promotion, but the problem was that some of the items (two HD episodes) were too large to fit in my harddrive (I'm running low on free hd space) - so each time I was running iTunes I had to cancel the downloading of those items. On my iPhone, I was able to cancel the downloading once for all, but iTunes somehow wanted to try downloading them even if I deleted them. This was quite frustrating so I sent a mail to the support using the Express Lane feature on the support website, asking for thos items to be removed from my iTunes account - and tadaaaa ! Once a nice guy from Apple deleted them, my iPhone stopped asking for that stupid password !

I am having problems with my hotmail email and new software update. It keeps asking me for my password even though the email account has been verified. Please help

It keeps asking me to re- enter the password. Is there something that I am doing wrong, the account has been verified but as soon as I exit out of settings it will ask me to re-enter my password.

I have done this and keeps saying the same thing. I have even tried setting my account through Microsoft exchange but no luck

Why does my iPad keep asking me to allow cookies when it already does?

Since the weekend my iPad keeps asking for my id and password. When I enter it, it keeps saying I have to allow cookies before I can update anything or use iCloud, the cookies are enabled but it still won't work.
Please can anyone help?
Frustrating.

Hey there Stirrups,
It sounds like you are unable to sign into your iCloud account successfully due to this message that you need to accept cookies but you have that set correctly in Settings. I recommend starting by signing out of your iCloud account in Settings > iCloud. Then closing all the running apps on your iPad:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the phone and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

I lost my original disk for photoshop 7... I need to update.. it won't let me.. and keeps asking for the disk.. even though the program is on my pc... How can i get my update?

I have photoshop 7 on my pc but have lost my original disk.... I went to update it and the update is not seeing the file on my pc... and it keeps asking for my disk.. but i can't find it...
How can i update it...

Ah, you had Photoshop 7.0 working, and now it's not. I see that as a separate issue to updating it. I'm not sure why it would ask you to update it.
Do you know whether you have 7.0 or 7.0.1 at this point? You might be able to do a Properties function on Photoshp.exe and see that info.
You could make an attempt to reset Photoshop's preferences to defaults. Press and hold Control - Shift - Alt simultaneously immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be really quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your current preferences, which will lead to the establishment of a fresh default set. If it does not prompt you, you haven't been quick enough to get the keys down.
Only other thing that comes to mind is to use Windows System Restore to restore back to a restore point where Photoshop was working, or restore from a backup (you do make backups I hope).
If that fails, and you need to do a fresh install but no longer have the original disk and serial number I'm afraid you may be out of luck. There's no place I know of from which to download a fresh full copy of Photoshop 7.0.

HT4906 when i try to update iPhoto in apps it keeps asking me to sign in but aim already signed in how do i fix this please help

when i try to update my iphoto in app store it keeps asking me to sign in to my account but i am already signed in can someone please tell me how to fix this.

Sign in with the Account you used to purchase the apps, or that you first used when you registered at the App Store. Oher than that you need to contact App Store support. They're the only ones who can fix account issues.

Photoshop keeps asking me to renew subscription even though it's up to date.

Photoshop keeps asking me to "renew your subscription", even though it's up to date.
When I click "Try Again" it says "Thank You Your subscription to Adobe Photoshop CS6 is now active. Click Continue to use your product".
But when I click "Continue", the whole process starts over and it asks me to "renew" again. It's an endless loop.
I can't get any work done until this is resolved.

Hello,
I contacted customer service and they say my payment information is fine.
They also gave me some ideas as to how to resolve this issue:
1) Download the "Creative Cloud Cleaner"
2) Reinstall the latest "Adobe Applcation Manager" and reinstall Photoshop CC.
I've tried these steps and nothing has worked. I'm still being asked to "Renew" my subscription each time I try to launch Photoshop.
And now the previous work around (see my prior post) no longer works.
Please help. Thanks

HBOGO on AppleTV Keeps Asking to Activate

I have been trying to access HBOGO on AppleTV. It's been working fine for a month. Now, out of the blue, it keeps giving me an activation code and instructing me to activate. I do so on the the HBOGO activation site - AppleTV as device, XFINITY as provider, it tells me activation is successful. When I hit play on the program, it returns to a new activation screen with a new code, ad infinitum. I've tried unplugging to reset the AppleTV unit, and have tried restarting from the Settings menu. Nothing resolves it. Anyone have a good idea for me? Thanks.

Enter the requested information to activate the iPhone. If it is asking for an AppleID
and passcode you do not know, you will need to get that information from whoever
originally activated the iPhone. Activation Lock is a security feature in iOS 7 and later.
Without the required information, the iPhone is useless. There is no workaround for
Activation Lock.

Hey guys my Apple ID was disabled and it's telling me to change my password so it well enable and I did so many times and it keeps asking over and over again even tho I did it so I can't sign in to my icloud on my iPhone what do I do?

Help

Hello LeloChick,
It sounds like you are being prompted that your Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons, and even though you have reset the password, it keeps re appearing. If you have done all the steps outlined in the following article:
Apple ID: 'This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons' alert appears
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2446
I would next reach out to our iTunes Account Security team with this link:
