My phone keeps asking for apple id and password

After the Hacking saga of earlier in the week I managed to restore my phone to the last back up now when I click on an app it asks for my apple id and pass word I enter and the message disappears then I go to open the app again and the pop up box comes back   any ideas

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Ever since I updated to Yosemite my mac book pro keeps asking for Apple Id and password but will not accept them

    Ever since I updated to Yosemite my mac book pro keeps asking for Apple Id and password but will not accept them.  What can I do?

    Try the advice here. I had the same problem and it worked for me.
    You have to delete the "SC Info" folder from /Users/Shared. You will have to use Terminal to enable you to see this folder first. Make sure iTunes is not running when you delete the "SC Info" folder
    There is an article from Apple on this here. The "SC Info" folder contains iTunes authorization information.
    I did this two weeks ago and iTunes accepted by login. I haven't been asked for my AppleID or password since.

  • Updated to IOS 7.0.6.  Error code 6 during install. Restored using iCloud. Now iPhone keeps asking for apple ID and password.

    Apple ID is a random person's ID. I hit cancel and a new ID pops up. This happens 5 times in a row. 
    Later the same thing happens with the same 5 apple ID's.
    I have erased the Apple ID and entered my ID and Password but I still get the pop ups.
    I have entered my Apple ID and password everywhere I can think of.
    How do I solve this issue?

    Did you purchase this phone new, or is it a used device? It sounds as if it is asking for the Apple ID and password for the original owner. See this support link about Activation Lock, Apple's anti-theft device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818

  • HT201442 hi there , i forget my apple id and password which is i use for my new iphone 4s , and i dont know what to do now ,, even i cant use the phone , always ask for apple id and password to get this phone activated

    my new iphone serial number is DX3LGJH3FML6

    I am amazed by the number of people who claim that they've forgotten their Apple ID, password, security questions, and rescue email address.  I'm wondering what percentage of these people have stolen property.  Regardless, you can get your Apple ID here: Settings>Store>tap on your AppleID.
    FYI: you posted in the wrong forum.

  • Just updated my iPhone 5s from ios 8.1 to 8.3. After the install it asked for Apple ID and password and to allow it to sync to Mac and iTunes. After following the steps my phone kept restarting - turning on and off and goes blank. How do I fix this??

    I have had about 9 iOS devices at work do this. 
    The fix and it will wipe out anything on your iphone is to connect it to your computer and have the latest version on iTunes open.  Hold the Power/Sleep and Home button till it blanks out.  Keep holding the home button untill it says recovery mode on the screen of the computer and do a restore.

    If you can't remember your apple id or password then sadly that phone has been bricked, without that infomation te activation lock cannot be removed by apple or anyone else.

    You can only have five computers authorized for one iTunes account.  You need to deauthorize another computer and then authorize this computer.  If yu do not have access to the other computers you can deauthorthize all computer and then authorize the one you want.  You can only deauthorize all once a year.  See the following for how to deauthorize all.

    I just brought a apple 5c from the market and tried to load it but it's asking for Apple ID and password what a wast off money how do I unlock it now

    You can't. It is locked to the previous owner's account.
    Have the previous owner remove the iPhone from their account or get your money back.

  • I-phone repeatedly asking for apple I.D.password

    a month ago my phone began asking for a password for an i-cloud account
    connected to an email account that no longer exists
    i would just ignore it and go ahead with making my call or sending message.
    today it has begun freezing up AND my attempts to figure things out on my mac pro
    has led me on a question and answer exercise that just goes on an on leading me back to go.
    so i have a frozen phone, a lap top that just keeps asking for apple id's and passwords
    and i'm literally having panic attacks.
    (i purchased a good old fashioned phone so i can reach my son )

    I encountered this on my son's iPod Touch. I tried an 'Update All', but since he has one or two apps from his sister's Apple ID and she wasn't here to enter her password (which stopped the whole process!) I wanted to just update the other apps (purchased on my Apple ID). However, since there wasn't an option to skip an app, it seemed the only way to update the others (around 50 apps) was to click on all the update buttons individually. That would have been annoying enough, but fancy being asked to type in my password for every… single… app!
    Absolute madness. Does Apple not think through these things anymore? They used to pay such careful attention to little details of the user experience. Very frustrating.

  • My iphone 4s is deactivated, the phone is asking for my account and password but i forgot my apple id password. and i can't reset it. can someone help me with my problem? thanks.

    I have an iPhone 4s and it is now deactivated. the phone is asking for my apple account and password. but i have forgotten my password. i tried to reset it on iforgot.apple.com, and when i entered my apple id the next thing that appeared on screen is that i have to chose either email verification or security questions. then i click the security question then it asked about my birthday. there where only asking the month and day. then i entered my birthday which is March 8.
    so can somebody help me with this problem?
    my apple id account is "[email protected]"
    thanks in advance!

    The email you should NOT have published, is your iCloud, not Apple ID
    You Apple ID is a valid email address
    This is a user forum, not Apple customer service.
    I gather the security question did not work.
    If you have an email address, why not use that?
    If this fails you have to contact support and schedule help.

  • Music, iPhone asks for apple id and password when playing music.

    My iPhone 5 keeps asking for my apple id and password when playing an album or any song purchased through iTunes Store. Not only does it ask for it for the first song, but every one after that. Any ideas?
    DGordon

    Hello there, shadfly.
    Is it,  potentially, that you may have purchased the affected songs with another Apple ID? A great Knowledge Base article that always helps me out is:
    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
    Particularly what follows:
    Authorize using the correct account name
    The items you are trying to play might have been purchased using a different iTunes Store account. To determine which account was used to purchase an item, follow these steps:
    Select a purchased song in your library and choose File > Get Info.
    Click the Summary tab. Note the Account Name that appears in the list. This is the account name (Apple ID) you will need to use when authorizing your computer to play this purchase.
    Note: The account name that appears is the one you used when purchasing the item and does not change if the account name (Apple ID) changes.
    If you've authorized the Apple ID that is shown in the Summary tab, you can check the purchase history for that Apple ID from Store > View My Account. If your purchase history does not reflect the purchase of the items in your iTunes library, consider any other Apple ID you may have created, and authorize the computer for your additional Apple ID.
    If you forgot the password to one of your accounts, you can recover it using Apple's password-recovery website.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communizes for answers to your question.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.
