My iPhone keeps asking me to enter my iCloud password, Why?

Almost every time I enter the mail app, and randomly throughout the day, my iPhone keeps popping this box up asking for me to enter my iCloud password. I enter it and it goes away. I know the password I'm entering is correct, but, my question is - why is this happening? I've had every iPhone ever made and just recently bought the 6 Plus and this is the first time ever I've encountered the issue. Any help on getting this annoying popup to stop is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Try signing out of the acount comletely and then signing back in again. If it doesn't help and you have more devices, sign out everywhere and try again.

Hope I'm in the right place. First time user. Not tech savvy. Just upgraded to OSX Mavericks. Box keeps asking me to enter my iCloud password. I keep entering my password but box keeps popping back up asking for password?! I selected cancel but what should I do next time it asks for my iCloud password? Is my iCloud working? How do I retrieve my password?
Thanks

In the iCloud pane of System Preferences, uncheck the box marked Mail and check it again.

My 1st gen iPad keeps asking me to verify my iCloud password

Two months ago I upgraded to the iPad 4 (running IOS 7.1.1), and it is working very well, syncing to iCloud just fine. Since then, though, my 1st generation iPad (running IOS 5.5), almost daily, asks me to verify my iCloud password. I don't think it should be doing this, because nothing about my iCloud account has changed, except for the added iPad. How do I stop or correct this issue?

This is optionally, you can go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > turn iCloud Backup to off.
You can backup your device later or, just type your Apple ID.

My apple id and icloud are different and my iphone keeps telling me to enter my icloud id

I don't actively "use" my icloud and my id on the icloud and my itunes account/apple id are different (I've forgotten multiple times and have reset). How can I stop my phone from tellingme over and over to enter my icloud id?

If it is signed into and iCloud account in Settings>iCloud and is running iOS 7 with Find My iDevice enabled, you will have to provide the correct password for your iCloud account. (An iCloud ID is also an Apple ID.)
If you don't remember the password, you will have to reset it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.

I have a new IMAC and it is asking me to enter my icloud password, I can't even log in to it now at all

I have a new IMAC, when I set it up I thought I did it so I wouldn't have to have a password to sign on, but now it is asking for my icloud password.
I have had to reset my password multiple times now and I still can not log in to my IMAC......frustrating. please help

Pre keeps asking me to enter my Yahoo password

It's day three of this issue. Looking around the forum, it looks like a lot of us are having issues with email, but I still want to ask if there is a solution for my Pre asking me for my Yahoo password every hour or even more. It's draining my battery! Not to mention a pain in the ass.
I plan to hit the local Sprint store, but want to ask everyone here for help too!
Thanks!
Veronica

This just started happening to me last week.
Any ideas on why? I'm not aware of any new webOS updates and haven't changed my account at all as near as I can figure.
If I click on the message and either re-enter or just click Sign In leaving the stored password it works fine.
So it seems like this is just an annoying error message that doesn't actually stop email/contacts/calendar from working with Yahoo.
I find these services to be invaluable. With 3 busy kids all with shared but very active yahoo calendars I can actually keep track of who is supposed to be where when.

HT201991 Everytime I tried to write a review for an app, my iPhone keep asking me to put in my passwords. What can I do about that?

What can I do? Why is my I phone not letting me write reviews on apps I downloaded?

I have been having this issue for months, now--at least 3-4. I updated my credit card info on my account, thinking maybe that would do it, but NOPE--can't review a single thing I've ever purchased in iTunes--not from my iPhone 5, PC or iPad 2. Ridiculous, at this point...just remove the ability to review at all, if this is how it's going to be. SO frustrating.

Why do i need to keep entering my icloud password

I moved from Mobile Me to iCloud and my wife is frustrated that she keeps getting messages to enter her iCloud password on her iphone. Any ideas how to change the settings so she stays logged in?

My iPhone 4 keeps asking me to enter the apple ID for an account which no longer exists-.please help

my iPhone 4 keeps asking me to enter the apple ID for an account which no longer exists….please help

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...

Why does my iPhone 6 keep asking me to enter my phone number to text? It's already in there but keeps popping up everytime I open messages

I have a iPhone 6 and every time I click on messages a pop-up will appear saying I need to enter a phone number to be able to message. It has two options "cancel" or "settings" so I select "settings" and it takes me to my message settings and my phone number is entered there so I will re enter it and click "save" and when I go back to messages it will pop up again. Any idea how to fix It? I've done all the updates and I have restarted my phone twice.

I think I figured it out. Did everyone, by any chance, have their device previously jailbroken? Then when they backed up their apps with iCloud, iCloud saved them? Then when trying to restore to a previous backup after upgrading to IOS6 all the apps showed up but just say waiting underneath? Well the reason it keeps asking for the apple id and password is because of those apps. As I noticed, the apps that are like that, when I tap on them the same window shows up asking for my info. All I did was erase the apps that were 'waiting' that were previously downloaded from when my iPad was jailbroken and I haven't gotten the little pop up since, its associated with the apps, I noticed that, but not exactly what its reasoning behind it is, probably because it is asking for your ID in order to download it, but when it can't connect, because of it being a pirated app, the device gets confused and when isn't able to download the first time, it will try again and continuously ask for your ID in order to confirm its download.
Hope this helps.
- After this upgrade I'm going to be avoiding jailbreaking and just deal with what I have to app wise.

Iphone keeps asking me for my AppleID password

My iPhone keeps asking me for my AppleID password.
This usually happens after I wake the phone and/or start any app. The problem is intermittent (and too consistant that it has become very annoying!)
This started happening about 1.5 weeks ago.
I called into Apple support and they don't have any idea of how to fix it other than me backing up my phone and performing a brand new restore. I haven't done that yet as it seems to be a brute force approach (and lengthy timewise at that).
From what I can remember, I purchased a song from my iPhone using the iTunes store. Ever since then, it has started asking me for my password for my AppleID. If I enter the password and click OK, everything is fine, but after a few moments, it will ask me for my password again. Also, if I hit Cancel, everything is fine, and again, it will ask me for my AppleID password.
I have the lastest build/version of iOS 5.0.1 installed. The password entered IS correct. I am able to purchase music/movies/tv shows from my AppleTV with the same AppleID and password. I have verified on my iPhone under settings, Itunes that my AppleID is correct as well.
Anybody else getting this and/or have a solution?

Could be a few things...Some things to check:
-Do you have pending downloads in the itunes store? Go to ITunes Store > More > Downloads
-Are you signed into the correct Apple ID in the store? Go to Settings > Store and check the Apple ID. It may be a good idea to just sign out (by tapping on the apple ID and choosing sign out) and sign back in even if you are.
-Other things that use your Apple ID that you might check: App Store, Facetime, iMessage, iCould, Game Center

I am very regularly asked to enter my icloud password on my iPhone, why ??

Hi,
first sorry for the mistakes i could make writing those lines, i am french and my poor english could bother you
I have a problem using my new iPhone 5S (Silver 64 Go)
I often have to enter my iCloud Password, and even sometimes i am told it is wrong !
Why do I have to enter it several times a day, a hour ?
I also have a similar problem on my iPad, with my email account passwords. I have to type them several times a day, and i have 5 email accounts. That is awful. Apple had never got me used to having problems or bugs before... Disappointing and tiring !!
Please help, and again forgive my grammar or voc mistakes :/

Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.
More here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622
I recall it happening to me once. I inadvertently had the caps lock on and after numerous failed attempts, I was asked to verify my account or reset my password.
