IPad randomly launches requests for Apple Store login information

A few weeks ago my iPad started to ask for my Apple login information regularly, launching the login box for no apparent reason.  I try to watch a youtube, and the login comes up.  I start my browser, and the login comes up.  Any thoughts out there on what happened and how to stop this?
Thanks.

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

  • I want to buy a wifi 3G iPad 2 from the US apple store and get a relative to bring it down to Sri Lanka. Does it come unlocked for other cellular carriers or is it restricted and needs to be unlocked?

    Hi I want to buy a WIFI+3G iPad 2 from the US apple store and get it shipped to a relative in the US to bring it down to Sri Lanka. My question is, is the iPad 2 unlocked to be used with any carrier worldwide or will i have to unlock it myself? Or is there any way to purchase a iPad 2 without selecting a specific US carrier?
    Thanks,
    Milinda

    iPads bought in the US are not locked to a carrier, but only the AT&T version uses micro-sim cards - the Verizon model is CDMA based and doesn't use sim cards, so for that reason is effectively locked. With the AT&T version you should be able to just swap in a local micro-sim - you don't have to activate a service with AT&T

  • Trade in iPad mini for Apple Store credit?

    I was wondering if it's possible for me to 'recycle' my iPad mini for Apple Store credit? I'm planning on buying a Macbook Pro soon, and was wondering if I could trade in my iPad mini to get a discount on the laptop.

  • I bought a ipad mini online from the apple store. His battery doesn't last more than 6h. I return it back to them they send me a new one, but the problem is same. Battery doesn't last more than 5-6h!

    I have purchased a iPad mini online from the Apple store. Since day one I had 2 issues with it. First is that the battery life doesn't last more than 5-6h active usage, and the second one is with the wi-fi. It works properly but after I leave it for a while in sleep mode and try to reuse it, it doesn't want to open a web page or app store or mail (anything connected with the internet search) but it shows that is properly connected with my home network. So I have to turn off the wi-fi connection and turn it on again so it start to work properly. After couple off days this becomed very annoying so I contacted the support via phone and they gave me instructions for return it and that I'll receive a new one without aditional fee. I get the second device in the predicted time but again I have the same issues with the wi-fi and battery life. I will be pleased if someone from the Apple expert team explaine to me what should I do, because I dont find it for normal what is happening. On the Apple official site under the specifications for iPad mini it says that the battery lasts for at least 10h and the wi-fi problem isn't mentioned anywhere. Thanks in advance.

    This is a user to user forum. No one here is an employee or representative of Apple.
    If you want someone from Apple to explain what you should do make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one near you and take your iPad there and talk to Apple. If no Apple store is close enough then call Apple to find out what your alternatives are. There is a Contact Info link at the bottom of every page in this forum.

  • Can I trade in my iPad 2nd generation at the Apple Store?

    Can I trade in my iPad 2nd generation at the Apple Store?

    No.  Apple does not take direct trade-ins.  You can sell the iPad, or use one of Apple's Recycling partners to get a gift card for the value of the iPad you can then use in the store.   But you'll get more money if you sell it yourself.

  • Refurbished Ipad on the on-line Apple store

    I live in Portugal. I' am a Apple client for the last 7 years. Why can't buy a refurbished Ipad on the on-line Apple Store? Only U.S. clients can do that?

    it is because "refurbished products" are not sold in every country through the Apple website.  They are not only available just in the US store, other countries stores as well.

  • I buy the apple ipod from Channel Island Jersey UK and is dont find in the list of country to register for apple store. What i can do?

    i buy the apple ipod from Channel Island Jersey UK and is dont find in the list of country to register for apple store and i chose UK but my address biling for bank is in Jersey Uk. What i can do? wen i put the post code from jersey is tell that" Your post code does not mactch the country you selected for the Itunes store"

    I also just bought macbook pro completely legally and officialy.
    You can't officially buy an Apple product as far as Apple is concerned, in the Ukraine if Apple says that there are no Apple Authorized venders in the Ukraine.
    Here (in Ukraine) are official Apple's service centers, as like as in Belarus and Russia.
    According to Apple there are no Apple Authorized Serve Providers in the Ukraine.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434
    And why should I care about those kinda "support lists"?
    Because those lists are the official Apple statement of the state of affairs in your country. If you country is not on the list then Apple has no legal or official obligation to you or any products that you have managed to buy in the Ukraine.
    this is, for example, official distributor of Apple products in Ukraine.
    Not as far as Apple's statement on the issue is concerned.
    I bought legal macbook and have right for legal support, and that's all.
    Yes, if you get the product to a country with officially and legally Apple Authorized Service providers. There are none in the Ukraine.

  • HT2534 "No" is no longer an option for billing information for apple store. is there a way to register without a credit card?

    I see in the online documentation that it says you can choose "None" for billing option and register for apple store with a credit card but when i try to do this on the iphone 5 i was recently given, "none" is not an option and i cannot proceed without entering a credit card.
    i don't have a credit card and would love to use this phone with free apps. Let me know if there are any workarounds.
    thanks!

    Read the steps in the support article from which you came carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
    If you are certain you're following the steps exactly as given and are creating a new Apple ID and still have problems, go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • HT2736 I coud not sign up for apple store , I can not ad my billing information,what is the iTunes Gift ?

    I coud not sign up for apple store , I can not ad my billing information,what is the iTunes Gift ?

    By 'could not sign up' and 'can not add my billing information' you mean ... ? Did you get any error messages ?
    iTunes gift cards are an alternative way of paying for content from the store. They are not available in all countries and they are country-specific (they can only be used in their country of issue) - so they may not be available where you are, so you may not be able to fill that field in.

    From the iTunes terms and conditions:

    There are no refunds. However, you can contact iTunes support & plead your case:
