MacBook Pro keeps asking to sign into iCloud, iMessage, and FaceTime

My wife's MacBookPro11,3 keeps asking her to sign into iCloud, iMessage, and FaceTime, non of which she uses. She keeps clicking on cancel, but they just keep popping back up, one after the other. She is using OS 10.9.3. Any suggestions how to stop this non-stop cycle? We've tried re-starting the computer, but that didn't help. I didn't see anything in preferences that I could turn off. She has just moved the pop-up window over to the edge of the screen so she can keep using the computer. Thanks.

Do you mean logging in and out of the MacBook Pro, or in and out of iCloud, iMessage, and FaceTime? I will have her try logging in and out of the MacBook Pro.
Thanks for the suggestion.

HT204408 How can I sign into both iMessages and FaceTime?

I somehow lost connection with both iMessages and FaceTime on my iMac and now unable to sign in. I am able to access both the App Store and iTunes Store with my Apple ID and password. I went through the steps suggested in the help section (TS3970) and all appears fine. I am operating on a iMac running OS X Yosemite version10.10.2 I do not experience any problems on my IOS devices (IOS 8) running iMessages and FaceTime if this means anything.

I of course already checked and I also checked iTunes, where else can I check?

I can't sign into iClouds, iMessages and other apple utilities except mac app store.

I can't sign into any apple utilities except mac app store. I guess it is happening as i have a very poor internet connection. Please Help

What is the full text of the message that you are getting ?
Messages about countries usually refer to the country that you have on your iTunes account. You have your correct billing address on your account, and you are in that country ? If you can't log into your account directly on your phone to view/correct your address details (e.g. via Settings > iTunes & App Store), then can you do it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com ?

Iphone 4s running ios 7 keeps asking to sign into icloud after update

Wife updated her 8 gig iphone 4s to IOS 7.1.2. As soon as the smoke cleared everything seemed fine until the phone started asking her to input her apple ID and password. The first few times she entered it thinking it was normal. After a few days of doing this 2-3 times a day she just hits cancel. I did a bit of research and found that it might have something to do with the limited memory on the 4s and the lack of forsight on Apple's part when developing gargantuan operating systems. Any fixes out there besides buying a new phone?

Hey willi g,
If you are getting the prompt to sign in to your previous Apple ID, then take a look at the articles below. One will give steps on signing of everything that is associated with an Apple ID and then sign back in. If you need to reset the Apple ID to the previous account, the second article will assist with that.

So on my MacBook Pro, a friend tried signing into the guest account. It's been stuck on the loading screen for 3 days and hasn't let me cancel the request and login to the original account. What can I do?

Hold the power button down for 10 seconds. It will power down your Mac. You can then start it up again and see if you can log in normally.

How can I sync the contacts in my phone with those on my MacBook Pro? I already have an iCloud account, and everything else (calendars,music, etc.I is already synched) but the contacts won't.

Ok.
Open System Preferences, Apple Logo icon in the menu bar and then System Preferences or the Sys Pref iocon in the Dock and go to the Internet Accounts area and look at your iCloud account. It should list what is and isn't synced by a checkmark next to each item.
Also in the Contacts app click on Contacts in the menu bar and select Preferences then accounts and make sure your iCloud account is listed. You can also do that from the Internet Accounts area in System Preferences.

I recently updated my IOS using the beta found on an iTunes account link... Ever since then I've been unable to log into my iMessages and FaceTime account through my iTunes. The only explanation it gives me is that my connection was lost.... What to do?

It was downloaded through my iTunes account... So im sure it wasn't pirated. It's nothing more than a beta test to work out the bugs. But do u have any suggestions as to how i can about redownloading the same iOS but now the 'bugs' should be all worked out....

I cannot sign in with iMessage and FaceTime.

My pad run out of battery, after recharge I was no more able to sign in with iMessage and FaceTime.

:go to settings on ipad, click on wifi, then on the right hand side just next to your wifi name there is a blue arrow, click on the blue arrow & look below, there will be a field called DNS, IN the DNS server field just copy and paste the following DNS servers, do not edit anything , just put as it is and also make sure they are no spaces at the start or at the end
208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
this should definitely work

I can't even go back to a phone back up as it wont connect to itunes any more - says it needs to be updated - app store has no update for itunes.

I was given an old macbook, but when I tried signed into iCloud to get my calendar

I was given an old macbook which I've slowly been making my own, however, when I tried signed into iCloud to get my calendar and contacts onto said macbook, all of the previous owner's data merged with mine. I lost all my phone numbers, gained all of his on both macbook & ipad and now I'm not entirely sure what to do. if I sign out of iCloud all his data disappears, my email address remains, but all phone numbers are lost. If I sign into iCloud, he apperas on my Ipad gain. I am confused and need help. Anyone..? Thanks in advance

You can see if they might still be on your Mac, but just not in view by opening Contacts (Address Book), go to View>Groups to display your groups on the left sidebar, then seeing if they might be under On My Mac.
If they aren't, and they aren't in your iCloud account or any of your devices, you may be able to restore them from your iCloud backup (if you have one). Doing this is a bit tricky as you have to pull the internet connection to interrupt the restore process after the contacts are restored, then turn off iCloud contact syncing on the device, then reconnect the internet and finish the restore, delete the existing contacts from iCloud then turn on contacts syncing on the device again. Otherwise, when the restore process completes and your device reconnects to iCloud, the contacts in iCloud will overwrite the restored contacts on the device. The process for doing this is outlined in this user tip if you want to try it: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.
If they are still on your Mac under On My Mac, you can select the contacts and save them to a vCard file by going to File>Export>Export vCard. Then email this file to yourself, open it on your iPad and tap the attachment to import them to iCloud.

Keeps asking to log into iCloud

I had to replace my iPhone last week and then restore from iCloud. All of that was fine, but since, a window frequently pops up telling my to sign into iCloud with a field to enter my password. I have entered it every time and it has seemed everything's cool after that, until the window pops up again. I've gone into settings and find no indication I'm not logged in to iCloud, plus I have not had any indication in using the phone that I'm not logged in. Everything works except for this window popping up seemingly randomly. Any ideas?

Hello _kttn,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you need the Apple ID and password. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
If you forgot your Apple ID password
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a great day,
Mario
