Itunes keeps asking me for my password over and over and over and over again.
I have tried authorizing and deauthorizing the computer, signing out of itunes, checking for itunes updates, checking for unfinished downloads. Last week I called support to reset my account and password. It's working fine on the iPad, just not on the MacBook Pro. You name it and same problem. Can't purchase anything at all. Any clues?
that sounds like it is rejecting your password. confirm that you are not able to sign into http://id.apple.com - if not, reset your password.

Itunes keeps asking me for my password, then asks me to update billing info
A couple days ago, Itunes asked me to change my password. I did. Then it asked me to update my billing info. The problem is, I can't *get* to the billing info because it keeps asking for my password. I was technically signed in, so I went to my account and went to change the credit card information (which is still correct, btw...I was just hoping that re-entering it would fix it). However, when I clicked "edit credit card info" it tells me my session has timed out. Every time. And its only been a couple of seconds. At the suggestion of Apple Support, I've changed my password at least 5 times and am getting the same results. What can I do here?
Same issue. I complete one purchase and on the next one I get stuck in an endless loop of it asking for my password over and over. I have to close iTunes, reopen and it's fine, but that is ridiculous to do for every purchase.

Why does my iTunes keep asking me for my password?
I have just recently updated to 11.2.2, and since then, whenever I try to view my wishlist, or any other personal information, itunes will ask me to sign in. I do, but then it keeps asking me. How do I fix this?
Hey Shiukian,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Sounds like the issue you are having needs this artcle if it is asking to authorize.
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

I AM TRYING TO BUY MORE ICLOUD STORAGE. I PUT IN THE CORRECT PASSWORD AND SAYS COMPLETING PURCHASE. IT THEN GOES BACK TO MY PASSWORD AND I HAVE TO PUT IT IN AGAIN. I CANT GET ANY FURTHER SO WONT LET ME BUY IT. ANY IDEAS?
While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t use iCloud. There's an iCloud Support Community where everybody uses iCloud. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_mac

It is trying to restore my new ipod from the backup cloud, but it keeps asking me for the passwords of three different itunes accounts, two i know are my friends accounts and I don;t even know whoose the third is. I must have some of their music on my library or something, but it won't backup without these passwords it seems. Is there a way to get around this? I have the music in my Itunes library and can listen to it all I want and burn it on cds but I cant get it to go on my ipod without their passwords. Can i switch it and just have it sync to my computer and not this icloud? My other ipod didnt ask me for these passwords when I tried to sync it.
If you have music that was purchased on different iTunes accounts than the one you use, then you must provide the password, otherwise the tunes are not considered yours. You can turn off iCloud and just use the usual USB sync method. But I wonder whether you'll have the same problem?

I create my apple id from my boyfriend macbook and its says that I have to review my itunes information , when I get to the credit card number info etc. Its keep asking me for that I dont have any credit card and I dont want to put any , what should I do?
You cannot use that ID without a credit card. You did not create your account correctly. There is very specific way in which you must create your account if you do not want to use a credit card. If you don't have a credit card, you will have to start all over again.
1. You will have to sign out of that ID before you can create a new one. Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID>Sign out.
2. You cannot use the email address that you used for the first ID that you created. You will need to use another email address now
3. You have to download a free app in order to start the new Apple ID process.
Read this before proceeding.

I reset my apple ID password here on the website, but my computer isn't recognizing my new password. what should I do? I just need to update my adobe flash player but it keeps asking me for my password but won't take my new password I just updated."If you've forgotten the Apple ID password how did you log in to make the last post?"
Exactly! The password I used to log on here and write my post I figured was the same Apple ID password I would use to reset my computer login password. But my computer isn't recognizing it as the correct password so it wont let me update my login password. I have 2 user accounts on my computer.
As far as the link you provided, I already looked to that for help earlier. It states:
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Users & Groups, click the lock to unlock it, then provide an administrator name and password. Select a user, then click Reset Password.
I did these steps, but I don't remember my admin password. The question is: How do I reset my admin password so I can reset my log in password.
Is my admin password the same password I use to log onto this website to post questions? If so, like I said previously, I already reset that password and my computer isnt recognizing it. -
On my iPad I have a working icloud that I have complete access to, but on my iPhone it keeps asking me for the password for it, but I do not know it! And the email that I used is not activated anymore! How do I delete the icloud account on my phone?
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:

My iTunes is asking me for a password to restore my latest back up, but I never set one and none of my passwords I use work, how am I supposed to restore?
Sorry if you don't know your encrypted backup password, you won't be able to use it.

i thought i did but when i go to actualize the app it keeps asking me for his password cuase his apple id shows ....
what should i do? do i reset it completly and lose all the muisic and pictures?- Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account. -

Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

How do i get itunes to ask me for my password after downloading an app?
pretty simple, when i download an app it just doenloads automatically. i want itunes to ask me for my password but it wont?
By default, the App Store will request your Apple ID password once, and then for the next 15 minutes (or so, I beleive), it will not require it again. If you want to change that behavior, enable restrictions (making sure to memorize the passcode you create), and change the default to 'Immediately'.

I am trying to update my apps using a new user ID. I have changed it and I can't get it to change in the App Store. It keeps asking me for a password for my old ID??
YOu can't update your apps with the new apple id. All apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchased it, you will need to enter your password from you old id to update.
