Keep Airplay from asking for password for same device.

I am currently at a friends place who has a airplay divice in its network. For some reason my computer keeps asking me every 15 minutes for the password for this device. This is quite anoying as I can't keep it from happining and have no idea what is causing it. The ownly programs that are running at the moment are Safari, Fantastical, Dropbox and Divvy.
How do I keep my computer from trying to connect to an airplay device on its own.
Thanks for your help.

This kb refers to mail asking for a password, but the fix is what you want - use keychain access to set your login keychaing to unlock on login and to NOT lock automatically again.  That way, when you login with your password, your login (main or primary) keychain will also be unlocked and will stay unlocked as long as you are logged in.

  • After upgrading to OS X Yosemite, I keep getting popups asking for my "Local Items" keychain for cloudd, calendar, messenger and on and on...and then it wants me to change my password, only won't accept it when I do.

    After upgrading to OS X Yosemite, I keep getting popups asking for my "Local Items" keychain for cloudd, calendar, messenger and on and on...and then it wants me to change my password, only won't accept it when I do.

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, testing after each one, until it's resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Follow the directions in this support article.
    Step 2
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Select the iCloud keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password.
    Select
              Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain.
    Step 3
    Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the Keychain box. You'll be prompted to delete the local iCloud keychain. Confirm. Then re-check the box. Follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set up iCloud Keychain on an additional device.
    Step 4
    Open the Keychains folder as in Step 1. There should be a file in that folder with the name "login.keychain". If there is also a file iwith the name "login_renamed_1.keychain", then please do as follows:
    ☞ Rename login.keychain to "login-old.keychain".
    ☞ Rename login_renamed_1.keychain to "login.keychain".
    You can then close the folder. 
    Delete the login keychain from the keychain list in Keychain Access. Choose
               Delete References
    when prompted, not Delete References & Files.
    Select
              File ▹ Add Keychain...
    from the menu bar. Add back the file now named "login.keychain". If any of your needed keychain items are missing from it, also add back the file now named "login-old.keychain". I suggest you transfer any needed items from that keychain to the login keychain, then delete it. The transfers are made by drag-and-drop in Keychain Access. You'll need to enter your password for each item transferred. 
    Run Keychain First Aid again. Quit Keychain Access.

  • So, my girlfriends old apple ID keeps popping up asking for the password. I have changed my apple ID and my Itunes ID and it still pops up. what do I do?I cant download some of my apps because of it

    so, my girlfriends old apple ID keeps popping up asking for the password. I have changed my apple ID and my Itunes ID and it still pops up. what do I do?I cant download some of my apps because of it

    If you have any apps downloaded with the other AppleID, those apps
    will ask for the other AppleID to update.
    Downloads are forever tied to the AppleID used to download them.
    Delete the apps associated with the unwanted ID and download them
    under your ID. You will have to purchase apps that are not free.
    You cannot transfer apps from one Apple ID to another, not can you
    merge 2 Apple IDs.

  • I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

    I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • HT1349 Last week I was prompted to do an update on my MacBook Pro which I did & now different things keep popping up asking for passwords for a keychain & it won't go away. I don't know what these are & I don't know how to access them. Help me please

    Last week I was prompted to do an update on my Mac Book Pro which I did. Ever since I did the update a box keeps popping up asking for login info for my keychains & they won't go away. I have no clue what these keychains are & I don't know how to find them & know the passwords for each of them. Plus now I don't get my email on here either. Please help me...

    Outside of the contact number for that you've already used I don't know another way of direct contact. Here are some things that they may or may not of had you try that might help you. If you will go to the settings app and pick general on the right-hand side you will see accessibility. Within that you can adjust a text size make the text bowl you can also increase the contrast. You can also adjust the brightness and control panel.
    As for Siri again in the settings app under general you should see Siri on the right-hand side with the switch to turn it on. If that is turned on and you're still having issues
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    As long as you share that AppleID for iCloud, you cannot.  You are sharing a a single iCloud account and sync services.  The only thing you can do is get a second AppleID and use it with iCloud - you do not have to use that new AppleID for anything but iCloud (ie. you can still share an AppleID for iTunes and App store purchases).
    P.S. I am assuming you both want to sync your contacts with iCloud?

  • How can I turn off Keychain from asking for my password EVERY time I check for mail?

    how can I turn off Keychain from asking for my password EVERY time I check for mail?
    This is really driving me nuts.....
    Thanks

    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, and then click General. 
    Open the General pane of Security & Privacy preferences
    2.     Select “Require password...NEVER after sleep or screen saver begins.”  You can adjust the amount of delay before a password is required in the pop-up menu.
    From what I am aware, you cannot turn off the keychain.
    I hope this helps.

  • How do I stop iMail from asking for password over and over??

    I have my keychain set up, but iMail keeps asking for my passwords (I have 3 POP accounts) over and over... sometimes up to 3 times in a row, then it will go away and a few min later pop back up. Why is it doing this and how can I fix it so I don't have to type it in a millions times a day!?

    This has been asked and answered so many times; the summary is below. If I've missed any and none of those works, try searching for Mail Password and see if there is anything else in there.
    Delete all of the Mail passwords from Keychain Access.
    Run Keychain First-aid.
    Repair disk.
    Repair Permissions.
    Re-enter Passwords in Mail.
    One or all of those usually fix the problem.

  • How can I stop my iphone 5 from asking for Apple ID Password constantly?

    I've had this problem ongoing for awhile now and it's starting to drive me nuts.
    A few months back I was using an app where you could purchase in-game points which would come through your apple ID. I purchased the points and they never arrived, but it's like my phone is constantly now trying to buy the points over and over. Randomly even when the app is closed I'll be asked for my Apple ID password, even if the app is deleted from my phone. If I enter my password it'll go away for a little while and then try again later. So I figure it is just continually trying to make the purchase and fails each time.
    I've contacted the support for the app and they never reply to any support email questions, I've looked around online and similar problems seem to be fixed by people looking at pending downloads sitting in itunes on their PC, but there is nothing pending at all. I've changed my Apple ID password. I've made sure it was synced with my phone, I've cleared it from my phone and re set it up again ... nothing seems to work.I even reset my phone entirely and it continues to ask .. it's like the problem is linked more with my apple ID rather than the phone itself. But I'm out of ideas of how to stop it.
    Any suggestions? It's incredibly frustrating!

    Turn the account off in settings.

  • How to stop Calendar app from asking for my icloud password every 5 minutes

    On Mac OS X 10.9.5
    Recently the Calendar app pops up a window every few minutes asking for my iCloud password. I am sure I am entering the correct password, and selecting Remember password in my keychain - but it doesn't help. I have tried switching off Calendars in my iCloud settings, waiting then switching it on again. I have restarted my computer (several times). Nothing seems to help. The problem started since setting up 2-step authentication for my iCloud account. Any help much appreciated - It is really annoying!

    I found this on the Flexibit website.
    Why does Fantastical ask for my iCloud password after enabling two-factor authentication for iCloud?
    Apple recently made a change and now requires app-specific passwords when using two-factor authentication with iCloud. Please read this on how to set it up: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6186.
    If you've set up an app-specific password and Fantastical is still not accepting the new password, make sure that you aren't accidentally pasting in a return with the password. iCloud's website will include a return at the end of the password if you copy and paste the password directly from the iCloud website, which will cause the app-specific password to be rejected.
