IPhone 4s keeps asking for password for voicemail. this is a replacement, and I never set up a password before, and don't want to

I took my iPhone 4s that I got for Mothers day of this year to the Apple store, because it would not activate after I restored it. So I have this new phone, did a restore from backup, and all is good. Except it keeps asking me for a password for my voicemail. Even if I am not in voicemail. Never had that problem before, and I did not set one up in my other phone, and do not want to set it up in this one. I tap on cancel and it goes away. But these little things really really bother me. I even have an issue with the iTunes Apple store asking me for my password every time I want to update. Sorry, it just bugs me. I can understand if I am buying something, but updates? And free apps? Anyway, if I have to I will keep tapping Cancel, but I never had an issue with my last iPhone 4s. Thank you.

For some reason I cannot post a new question so adding to this one.
I have the same problem with the voicemail password.  I have a voicemail password, I don't need to reset it - but I want to get rid of it.  Did you get a satisfactory answer?
VERY irritating to suddenly have to put in a password to hear voicemails.  What is up with iPhone?  I hope someone can help me.

  • New iPhone 4 keeps asking for voicemail password?

    Hubs new iPhone 4 that he upgraded from 3G keeps asking for his voicemail password everytime he wakes it from sleep. He just hits cancel and moves on but it happens all the time. We don't even know what his voicemail password is and he never had to do that before on the 3G so what is up with that!
    How can he get rid of this prompt?
    Thanks!

    Press and hold the "1" key or your phone's keypad & follow the prompts to reset your voicemail password, or dial 611 from your phone & have an AT&T CSR reset it for you. Once done, the prompts will go away.

    Hi Aurion23,
    If you intend to keep using iCloud on your iPad, your best course of action would be to update your Apple ID/iCloud information so that you have a known password and it is associated with an active email address. You may find the following articles helpful:

  • IPhone 4S keeps asking for password when downloading app

    My iPhone 4S keeps asking me for my password - over and over - when I try to download an app. I've noticed that when I try to download free apps or update an existing app, it lets me do it. But if I try to download a free app or even a ringtune it will tell me I need to update payment info, then goes to ask for my password, then it requests my password again and again. Has anyone had any problems with this or suggestions on how to solve it? It's driving me nuts!

    I am not really sure if this will answer you question in one part of you post you say you can download free apps and in the other you say you can't but I will give it my best shot.  Itunes (the app store) always needs up to date payment info either a credit card with atleast a dollar on it you wont get charged anything if the app is free this it just to back purchases.  Or if you don't want to put you credit card info in you can just get a prepaid itunes card.  Itunes will ask for your passcode every fifteen min. you can set it to ask for it every time you purchase something but every 15 min is the norm.  Hope this helps.

    I should have also said that the only reason this is causing me an issue is because I have bought a new phone and I want to sell this one.  But I cannot erase all data because I cannot turn off find my phone because it keeps asking for the password for an account which no longer exists…. have tried so many suggestions but nothing is working...

  • My ipod won't let me connect to wi-fi, won't let me restore or reset it, and it keeps telling me i knew a passcode for any one and I never set a password up. How do I fix this?

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    What I think you are talking about is a user name and password for an Apple ID.
    Apple IDs use a email address and a password you create for that email address on Apples website.
    There should be a link on whatever page you are on to Create an Apple ID. Click that link.
    Or just open App Store from the link on you Dock then Find the link to create an Apple ID.
    Absolutely not.  You can create a blank password.  Yes it's stupid.  Yes it's unsafe.  But from helping people with their Macs, I find most do not set up a password.  <facepalm>

  • Why iPhone 5 keeps asking to input credit card security code when downloading free applications?

    Why iPhone 5 keeps asking to input credit card security code when downloading free applications?

    To download apps, even free apps, you usually need the payment information associated with your Apple ID. You most likely have your credit card name, billing address, card number and expiration date already on file or you would be asked for these too. Apparently though your security code is not on file with your Apple ID. To avoid being asked each time to download an app go to your Apple ID and edit your payment information to include the security code.
