Password request when I switch it on

Hi, I own a Satellite Pro A100. The operating system is Windows Vista.
Recently I've been having some very bad problems with blue screen and crashing. The other day it crashed, but now when I switch it on it asks for a password, I have absolutley no idea what it's asking for because I never set a password to start it up.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Check Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID.  Is this correct?
Either way, try signing out and back in.
Also, try turning iMessage off and back on.

  • Unknown Apple ID Password requests when Restoring from iCloud

    Hi peeps
    Background info:
    iPhone 5 64GB unlocked, iOS 8.2, purchased from iStore new two years ago (not some craigslist special)
    Has two Apple ID's used on it - my current one from my own country and an old one from when I lived in another country. No other Apple ID's have been used for any purchases on this iPhone ever.
    Problem:
    I decided to erase my iPhone 5 this morning to try and help with the sluggishness that has been plaguing it after 2 years of hard use. Everything went well and setup seemed normal. Then it got weird...
    I am at the point in setup where I've now setup WiFi, entered my Apple ID details and accepted T's & C's, but I'm getting asked to "Enter the Apple ID password for tiffany*****@gmail.com to use for store purchases". This is one of 3 completely unfamiliar Apple ID's that I'm requested to provide the passwords for(plus one is a .ru email address, which makes me even more concerned). What I need to know is
    Should I be concerned re my iPhone and Apple ID's security possibly having been breached?
    Should I be worried about restoring from a (possibly) hacked iCloud backup and setup as a new iPhone instead?
    Is this a common issue? Do other people find their phones requesting the wrong Apple ID password?
    I'm opting to "Skip this step" on those accounts for now, but I'm feeling a bit concerned about the whole thing.
    Any ideas/solutions would be appreciated!
    Thanks
    Steve

    Did you use apps bought with different Apple IDs on your phone?
    As I stated in my original post "Has two Apple ID's used on it... No other Apple ID's have been used for any purchases on this iPhone ever."
    The problem is that the three additional Apple ID's I'm asked to provide passwords for are Apple ID's I have never seen before.
    No one else has ever used my phone and all apps are downloaded through the App Store on my two ID's. To my knowledge, I've never done anything odd to create a security risk on this phone. I have never been asked to provide unknown Apple ID details on this phone before today.

  • Password request when installing apps

    Hi all, I am trying to install some apps like splashtop or adobe flash player, and I am requested a password. I assume it's the appleID password, but actually macOS tells me that password is wrong. which pwd could be, or is there anything else wrong?
    thanks for any help

    If you can't remember the admin password you set when the system was first set up, then boot up using your MacOS install disk (insert the disk and hold the C key down while starting up) and then go to the Utilities menu. You'll find the option to change the password there.

  • How can I add a password request when I push on the Mail button ?

    Hi,
    I want to secure the access to my emails on my iphone, because anyone can read them when they got my iphone. How can I secure this ?
    I mean the easiest is to ask for a password when you push the Mail button or the SMS one.
    Someone know how to do that ?
    Thanks for your help.

    This is not supported with the iPhone but who has access to your iPhone that would take the liberty to check your email accounts and SMS messages when using it?
    My iPhone is never out of my sight but if lost or stolen, I have my iPhone password protected which prevents access to any iPhone functions.

    Repairing the permissions of a home folder in Lion is a complicated procedure. I don’t know of a simpler one that always works.
    Back up all data now. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to its present state
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    chmod -R -N ~
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. When a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) appears below what you entered, it’s done. You may see a few error messages about an “invalid argument” while the command is running. You can ignore those. If you get an error message with the words “Permission denied,” enter this:
    sudo !!
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
    Next, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the Recovery screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, enter “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A Reset Password window opens. You’re not going to reset the password.
    Select your boot volume if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.

  • Password request when refreshing pofcasts

    Getting the following message when Podcasts are refreshing
    To Access this site you need to log into area "idisk.mac.com" on web.mac.com
    It requires you to enter a User Name and password, none of my passwords work. I have never seen this before.

    Problem solved.
    One of the Podcasts was a non public Podcast that had a password attached. For some reason it lost its keychain (probably due to a reset of Safari) and was asking for a password. The only way to fix it was to re-subscribe via the WEB site and reestablish the keychain.

  • Wrong Apple ID password requested when updating

    Hi there people, really need your help!!
    My wife and I are having a few issues with our iPhones. She has a iPhone 4 and I have a 3GS - both on iOS 5.0.1
    We use the same windows computer, but we have seperate iTunes accounts/usernames and passwords.
    On several ocasions now (on both of our phones), when we are required to preform 'an update' for some of our apps, the other person's Apple ID is coming up and asking us to put in the relevant password??!?!?!?!? Of course we could just input the passwords, as we can just ask each other what they are, but it doesn't seem correct. The only way we've found round this is to delete all the apps that require the update off the iPhone and then add them back on. Bizzare and a real hassle!
    Plus I've also noticed that in our computers iTunes apps libary, there are a load of apps that she has on her phone that are not on the list there - could this be significant in the problem, I'm unsure?
    We want to keep our apps and folders seperate, and assumed that individually syncing would be easy. Now we both log into our Apple ID accounts in iTunes before we plug in our iPhone (not that thats helped at all!), not sure if we should have been doing this all along
    I'm hoping that there is a simple solution to this, perhaps a preference box somehere that needs to be ticked or something. The Apple store in Exeter had no idea hos this could happen or know how to fix it, which wasn't very much help at all.
    Looking forward to hearing from you and any possible solutions to each of the above issues.
    Thanks for reading.

    Thanks for coming back to me.
    It's signed as me on my phone, I signed out and back in again just in case but it hasn't made any difference?

  • How do I remove the apple ID and password request when I open my apps and mail? it belongs to my daughter's itunes account

    How do I remove the apple ID and password prompt that appears frequently. It is prepopulated with an account for my daughter and not one I need on the IPAD...

    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap on her ID and sign out. Them sign in with your own ID.
    If there are apps on your iPad (and I assume that there must be) that your daughter purchased with her ID - they can only be updated by using her ID.

  • My Icloud is tuck on my old email adress. i can not retreive the password becaue when i request the email it doent get sent to thi adress. how can i change it sothat my icloud is on my new email. i cant login or out of icloud now.

    To change the iCloud ID on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • My ex's Apple ID plus password request keeps coming up on my iPhone when trying to download Apps, how do I get rid of it please?

    My ex's Apple ID plus password request keeps coming up on my iPhone when trying to download Apps, how do I get rid of it please?

    Tks heaps for that, had a look at Store and ITunes sections, not overly helpful unless I am missing something.
    My issue is that on my computer she would update her iPhone with Software updates via iTunes.
    I have gone and deleted her backups that were still sitting on there.
    If I want to update my Apps on my iPhone when due her Apple ID and password request will come up as an option to use that account if I knew the password and it's synced from my Computer even though she has been gone 7 months now. Is it a syncing issue or is her Apple ID stored in my iTunes backups somehow and keeps coming back? Do I need to de-authorize her account from my Computer?

    Sign out of that Apple ID, then sign in with the correct one.
    Go to Settings > FaceTime, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.

  • I use Hotmail on my iPad. Yesterday I changed my password on the account using my home PC. Now the ipad requests the new password but when I enter it I get Password Incorrct and it asks to enter it again.

    I use Hotmail on my iPad. Yesterday I changed my password on the account using my home PC. Now the ipad requests the new password but when I enter it I get Password Incorrct and it asks to enter it again. The sticky part is that no matter what app I bring up including settings, the password request pop up appears and the app cant' be used

    I was going to say either that or to remove the email from your email account settings(on ipad) and put it back on. Happens everytime im forced to change my work email password. I need to delete the account and add it again for it to accept the new password.

    when i try to install app and it prompts for password a apple id shows up from previous owner and i dont know password how do i switch it to my apple id? ive restored the phone and my apple id is registered as mine on phone

    You don't. Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to originally obtain them & cannot be transferred to another Apple ID. You need to purchase the app using your ID.
