Password for icloud won't stick on iPhone 6

Settings for icloud repeatedly ask me to enter AppleID Password - it won't stick. I have been noticing lately that it seems to disappear when moving out of wifi and changing over to LTE or even sometimes 4G areas. I've done all the resets, and signed out and into iCloud re-entering my Apple Id & password numerous times. It still disappears after short time. At present I'm unsure whether it happens when in wifi area all the time or not. It's frustrating when every time I reply to an email or txt it asks me to enter A-ID-Psswd-; then I hit cancel and can go ahead and finish the email or txt. I also a few times during the time this box popped up, went into iCloud settings and again the psswd had disappeared!
I've had this iPhone6 (64GB) for 10 days and it has newest 8.1.1 and this prob has been happening from the beginning.

It stopped with 8.1.2 update to iOS
UPDATED INFO: It's back. I called Apple Help desk and they said it's built into iph 6, that the box for password stays blank but the info is STORED INSIDE THE PHONE somplace, so it's really there, even tho' it doesn't appear that it is.
So even tho' the password box is blank, it's not asking me for the password anymore like it did in the past.

    In this case you won't be able to do that?

  • We purchased a new iPad2 and registered it using a 'new' iCloud email/ID. We are unable to send email from the iPad and iPhone. The error is: Cannot send mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect.

    About ~20 hours later, this ended up solving itself. We can send email using the '.icloud' email from both the iPad and iPhone.  Advise would be 'wait' before you start seeking alteranatives like yahoo, hotmail, etc.  This definitely is a convenient way to keep all your 'cloud' information in a centralized place, including the common email...

  • How come every time I change my password for iCloud, iMessage, Apple, it either messes up on my Mac or iPhone.

    How come every time I change my password for iCloud, iMessage, Apple, it either messes up on my Mac or iPhone.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "messes up", but the most common reason to have trouble with one device after changing the password from another is that you have to actually go around to all of your devices and change the saved password for your Apple ID on each one if you change it on one of them, they don't update automatically.  If you change the password and don't change it on your devices, then they don't know the password has changed until you try to use them.

  • How do I stop the message "user name or password for iCloud is incorrect" from popping up 2 times in a row when i try to get mail from other accounts? thank you in advance

    How do I stop the message "Cannot get mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect" from popping up 2-4 times consecutively every time I choose MAIL on my iPhone 4,  7.1.1  I have to select "OK" 2-4 times each time before I can read other email accounts.  I used to have an "@me.com" account which I think was automatically changed to an "@icloud.com account."  I opened a new iCloud.com account yesterday because I could not figure out how to get in the old ones.  I want to delete the original @me & original iCloud account.  When I try to delete the account, they tell me my DOB is wrong. I just want those pop ups to stop.  Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Suzanne,
    It sounds like you’re running into a password issue with an older Apple ID that’s setup on your iPhone, which is preventing you from removing an iCloud account from your device. Take a look at the article linked below, it outlines all of the possible ways to change an Apple ID password.
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    After you enter your Apple ID, there are three ways you can change your password:
    Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
    Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
    Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
    So long,
    -Jason

  • HT2623 I keep getting an error message when I enter my password for iCloud IMAP server

    I keep getting an error message when I enter my password for iCloud IMAP server

    A number of users who have chosen to set up iCloud mail manually in the Mail application seem to encounter problems with continually being asked to sign in. This may well be a result of incorrect settings such as not setting 'Apple Token' for authentication under the accounts advanced settings.
    A more general approach to remedying such problems would be to turn off Mail in System Preferences/Settings > iCloud, checking the account has been removed from Mail (and deleting it if it hasn't), restarting and then enabling iCloud Mail again from System Preferences/Settings > iCloud. This will ensure the correct settings are used.

    Hello Martin,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iCloud account on your Mac.  I recommend signing out of iCloud first:
    On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.

    If you are still being prompted for your password, I recommend the steps in the following article (this article refers to an iOS device, but the steps are still relevant for your Mac as well):

    Your Apple ID is required to log in to iCloud, yes? I think you are rquired to re-sign in when performing  an iCloud feature?

    Hey Lakedrive442,
    It sounds like you have changed your Apple ID which you use with iTunes.  If so there are several places you may need to update it as outlined in this article.

    Of course some might not apply, but many might.

  • HT4436 why do i keep getting a message that states "the user name or password for "icloud" is incorrect?

    Why do I keep getting a message that states "the user name or password for icloud is incorrect.

    Apple are currently trying to get less secure passwords updated. They require that your account passwords are at least eight characters long and contain both alpha and numeric characters and at least one upper case alpha character.
    You might try changing your account password to match these requirements.

  • I'm getting the user name or password for icloud is incorrect. Everything was good until I changed my apple id pass word

    I had to change my apple id password and now I'm getting the user name or password for "icloud" is incorrect.

    Hi Ed,
    I experienced a similar problem too.  It happened overnight a few weeks ago after 11/19.
    I got a pop up message, saying that my password needed to be reset.
    So I reset my password, and ever since, I have not been able to read/send email from my icould @me.com acct.
    Now I get the error: "The user name or password for "icloud" is incorrect" on my iOS devices, though it is correct enough for access my iTunes account and to log into http://icloud.com. 
    Interestingly enough, the issue seems to be related to the email only, since I cannot access icould email from the website either. It instead creates an error dump.
