My "Restrictions" are disabled and iTunes still asks me for my password every single time I download new app or update. Any help?
This is on my iPhone 5S. Updated to the latest software as well... anything I do in the app store requires my password even if I just entered it.
Sign out and back into your apple id from Settings>iTunes and App stores>(Your apple ID)>Sign Out and then sign in again with the new address. Close app store from running in the background (or restart the phone if your unsure how to do this). If when trying to update any apps they are still asking for the old apple ID, delete and re-install those apps.

I am setting restrictions on my iphone and my ipad for my four year old son as he somehow purchased an app for $99 unbeknowst to me.
Does anyone know if you set your restrictions to ON, there is a setting that is called "Require Password" and there are two choices to choose from
"immediately" or "15 minutes". What I want to know is if my son asks me to purchase an app that costs $1 and I let him purchase it. Be entering my passcode
will it not ask him for any future purchases or an in-app purchase where they tend to rip you off. I want to ensure that it asks for a password every single time anything is purchased whether it is an in-app purchase or an app. I am unsure what the difference is between choosing immediately or 15 minutes on this specific Restrictions setting. Thank you.Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content>In-App Purchases>Off. Then: Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content>Require Password...set this to "Immediately".
Doing the above will accomplish what you want. -

You can't get it reset; if you could there would be no point in having it. If you have an encrypted backup there are two ways this could have happened:
You checked "Encrypt Backup" in iTunes at some time in the past, either intentionally or by accident
You have a corporate MS Exchange account and your Exchange administrator installed a security profile on your phone that requires the phone'a contents to be encrypted. This, in turn, requires the backup to be encrypted for obvious reasons.
In either case you were prompted for a password the first time you backed up after whichever of these happened. So think about what you might have entered for a password at that time. Fortunately you get an unlimited number of tries. Other threads on this subject have shown that it is always a password known to the user, so it wasn't something made up by iTunes. Also, everyone who has figured it out has found it to be a different password type, so try your Apple ID password, your computer's login password, your WiFi password, your corporate domain password, etc. And try passwords that may have been changed since your first backup. As a last resort there is a professional password cracker available, but it isn't cheap - it's targeted at the law enforcement market - from Elcomsoft. There are also some scam password crackers available that don't actually work and possibly steal your information. It's likely that a developer of one or more of these will post a response with a link (possibly hidden) to their "product". So before clicking any links you might want to install the Web of Trust plugin that keeps track of scam sites and warns you. http://www.mywot.com. -
I have installed adobe pdf and put in my password and its still asking me for a document password in which I have no idea what it is
So you put your password in when you installed it?
If that's the case, that was just your administrator password used to allow the install. It has nothing to do with the document.
If the document is asking for a password, you'll need to get that from the person that added a password to the pdf.
If neither of the above helps, please give us more info on what you are attempting to do and what is going wrong. LEtting us know your version of Adobe Reader may also be 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.

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'.

No there's not. Otherwise that wouldn't be very secure, would it?

I got a macbook pro today (20/01/2014) so I need help as I'm used to Windows computers and anyways, I'm trying to watch a Youtube video but it's asking me to download and install Adobe Flash Player, I download it, then I'm actually trying to install it, I click install and it's asking me for my password when I haven't even put up a password yet, I didn't boot up my Mac, the sales advisor did at the shop where I bought the Macbook Pro so what do I do?What password did you set up in the Setup Assistant when you created your initial user account? This is the password it wants - your admin password. If you did not create one then see below:
Forgot Your Account Password
For Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu.
Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow
instructions in the dialog window that will appear.

I just started my Macbook air the first time, connected it with my wlan and know it asks me for a password and it does not accept the only password I know, what can I do?
It needs the user password for the wireless router, that would have been set by whomever installed the router, if that was you then try to find the password. If you can not find the password reset the router to factory default and set it up again.

Hi!
I've just updated my iPad to iOS 7.02 and I'm not able now to download new apps nor update the version of the existing ones. All of them are "waiting"... for ever.Even, when trying to download a new app, a "dratf" icon appears on the ipad, not the app's own icon...
I've tried to switch off and on the iPad, disconnect and reconnect the itunes id... and nothing works. Even deleting an app, to download it again, doesn't work. It even doesn't ask for my password!!! (Stays with the small square with a circle around, the one that gets "bolder" while downloading... but it doesn't get bolder now. Just stay...).
Any suggestions? I wouldn't like to reset the iPad, since I've got data in some apps that I wouldn't like lo loose...
By the way, I can not either delete some apps with thos "draft" icons... even when the alert that appears when trying to do that is shown and select "ok".
Thank you in advance!
Best Regards,
Carlos.Hi,
Thank you, Once_was_lost, but it doesn't work either. I tried it yesterday as an option (I think you're referring to the options of those apps in the settings app).
The problems are still here... I've been able to update some apps using the PC itunes (connecting the app to it), but all the other apps are still "wating", and I have two new strange things:
* I cannnot remove the apps that are downloading (at least those that are supposed to be downolading ) . But I could remove one from the PC... and now there is an "empty line" in the "to update apps list".
* Stranger: though I cannot download new apps or music from the store, I can do in-app purchases!!! In that case, I'm asked for the password and the item downloads. How is it possible?????
I can download with the same user in the PC, in the iPhone... but not in the iPad .
I'm getting mad... -
Do i have to enter my adobe id and password every single time I open Creative Cloud?
do i have to enter my adobe id and password every single time I open Creative Cloud?
I have a very long email and after 4 days of using I am already irritated to hell!
Please add an option to auto login or something please!!!!!!If it did, I wouldn't be asking the question...... But I have since discovered what I think is at the heart of the problem:
I have my default browser as Chrome. I noticed I did not have a reply button on your post when using Chrome, I swithched to IE and their was a reply button. Hence how I am now managing to reply!
So it twigged that maybe that also had something to do with the sign of the Creative Cloud App from my notification area icon, seems werid to me but - Sure enough, now it does keep me logged in between sessions.
So are you going to fix so I do not have to set IE as my default browser? -

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. -
Why is it every single time i download something, it disappears off of the download tool bar, and I have to manually search for it? And sometimes I still cant find it, even doing a detailed search.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Every since I have had it.Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember download history"
To see all the History and Cookie options, select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
