Required to enter password multiple times

Whenever I do anything with iTunes on my MacBook Pro 15", Mountain Lion, iTunes version 11.0.2, 64bit version, it requires me to enter my password at least twice, and sometimes up to 5-6 times. WHY. It's getting very frustrating. I've already logged in to iTunes with my apple id and password, can't it be remembered for more then a few seconds? What's up? It is VERY annoying.
Any searches online send me to pages about apple id not working, wrong password, etc... but nothing like this.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem on my iMac.

My iPhone is displaying a "iPhone is disabled" notification. It asked me to enter my password multiple times before locking me out. Can you help with this?

Hey there!
Unfortunetly, in situations like this, the ONLY other way to bypass that four-digit passcode and/or a disabled device is to connect to a computer with the most recent version of iTunes (11.1.3), connect the device in Recovery Mode and restore it to factory settings. Restoring to factory will completely wipe the device, including the four-digit passcode.
The steps to do so are outlined in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
(If there is any other way to bypass the passcode, it would have to be third-party, which I am not familiar with any program that can, sorry!).

I have a Sirius subscription. Do I have to enter password each time I log in?

I have a Sirius subscription. Do I have to enter password each time I log in?

That would depend on the application you're using to access Sirius, I would presume. What application do you use?
If you're using just a web browser, I don't have a subscription to confirm but it does look like it would require the user name and password whenever you reconnect. Sirius support or a Sirius-releated forum might be able to provide additional information.

HT203128 Requirement to log in multiple times to iTunes????

When I attempt to log on to iTunes, I now have to input my password three times before gaining access. Is this a common problem or a new security feature of iTunes?

Hello outbackmariner,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are being prompted to enter your Apple ID and password multiple times every time you open the program. It sounds to me like it is prompting you to authorize your computer to play purchased content. If this is the case, to resolve this issue, please read over and work through the troubleshooting steps within the attached article.

Hunter1744, welcome to the forum.
If you are using Win7, you can go into Start. In the "Search programs and files" box at the bottom type "cmd" and hit Enter. This will open a terminal window. Type "netplwiz' next to the prompt and hit Enter. This will bring up a box titled User Accounts. Uncheck the box next to "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer." It will ask for a Password and to verify the Password. Once you do this, you should not have to logon with a Password in the future.
When requesting help, you should always include the make/model of the computer and/or monitor. This information is necessary for us to review the specifications of them.

After the restore did the phone work properly for a while? Say, a day or so?
If so it is possible you have an app that doesn't let go of memory properly. I reboot my iPhone ( hold sleep/wake and hole till you see the apple logo) every few days. This resets the memory. The iPhone OS has doesn't seem to mange memory very well yet. So a reboot will help with that. I have had my phone almost slow to a stop before I started rebooting. Always reboot after installing a new app. Also do you close all pages in Safari when you are done? This is a good practice. Safari will run in the background and use processor time and drain your battery quicker. Create a new blank page then close all others when you are done browsing for a while. I have also found that certain web site that have animated images like weather maps will turn the phone into molasses. As soon as i close that page it gets faster.
If all of the above have no effect then as Tamara said it is time for a trip to the Genius bar.
Good luck

I have to enter my master password multiple times (3) on startup. Is that normal?

Each time I startup Firefox I have to enter my master password three times. I don't think it's connected with any particular plugin etc. I have prety much the same plugins and extensions running on two machines and only have issues o this one.

You should check out the add-on "StartupMaster" to see if this addresses your use case.

Problem with having to enter password each time to gain access to network.

Hi there. I have just setup an airport express——connected to our dsl modem——as our only wireless network in a small flat. We just have two computers connecting wirelessly: my macbook pro (10.5.7) and my wife's powerbook (10.4.11). A very simple setup.
A few changes I made, using airport utility: I changed the MAC Address Access Control to timed so that both of our computers are on the approved MAC address list with "everyday, all day" access.
I also made it a closed network. And I changed the WPA Group Key timeout to under 12 minutes.
Other than than I left the settings as-is.
I was able to get both of our notebooks connected properly and everything seemed dandy as we were both online.
Here's the problem: if I leave the network or power down (macbook pro), I'm told that my machine can't find the proper network once I boot back up. I have to manually enter the name of the network and enter the password each time in order to get access——then I'm back online again. My wife's powerbook, however, doesn't have this same problem. And I've saved the network's password to both our keychains, so I'm not sure why this is happening.
Any thoughts? I'd love to be able to simply power up and be connected like a normal human being.

On your MacBook Pro, you might check a few things:
Open System Preferences and click on Network
Click on your AirPort connection on the left to highlight it and then click on the Advanced tab at the lower right of the pane.
Make sure that there is a check mark next to "remember any network this computer has joined"
Also check to make sure that your network shows up in the Preferred Networks list and that it is listed at the top of any other networks you make have shown.
You would also want to make sure there were NOT check marks next to:
"Disconnect from any wireless networks when logging out" and
"Require Administrator password to control AirPort"

Asked to enter PIN multiple times when sending Digitally Signed emails

Hey everyone, I have been having a very difficult time trying to figure out why my co-workers and myself are being asked to enter our PIN multiple times when digitally signing emails. My co-workers are looking to me for a solution, however
I just cannot seem to find any information on as to why this is happening. Could anyone possibly shed some light on why this may be happening? Thanks in advanced!!!
P.S. We are using Outlook 2013

Hi,
Let's troubleshoot this issue by the following steps:
1. Start Outlook in Safe Mode to determine whether it's 3rd-party add-ins related:
Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
If no issue in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which on caused the problem.
2. Go to Control Panel and search for "Manage computer certificates" then open it, find the certificate and right click on it, choose Properties -> under General tab select "Enable all purposes for this certificate" -> Apply ->
OK.
3. If you create a new Outlook profile, does this issue persist? A new profile will provide a new environment for the account and it will not remove any information from the old profile. A profile corruption may be the source of this issue.

Must I enter password each time I update an app

Must I enter my password each time I update an app

Yes. That is how they know you are the one that bought the app in the first place. Pretty basic security for you and them. The good news is that once you enter it, it will remember for 15 min, so you can update others, or get new apps without needed to re input.

Since update, start up problems. Must push start button, must enter password several times, long wait times, must push start button again and enter password again.

Since update I have start up problems. Laptop seems to shut down.
Must push start button, then wait to enter password. Long wait time, then screen goes black and I must push start button again and enter password again. More long wait times. Startup each morning takes up to ten minutes.
I have 4GB Memory and 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 Processor.

Does it start up normally in safe mode?

My iPad has been disabled for more then 30 days. Apple is not solving this for me( 1 year warranty) . I also have reset the password multiple times, No Result. Who can help me?

Fellow Apple users,
Fantastic system, however on march eight I encountered that my apple ID has been Disabled.
I have tried multiple times to reset the I'd , but with NO luck at all. With other words I can not buy new credits to buy products or music. This ought to be fixed first someone has told me.

Who may inform me what to do.
Do I have to make a complete NEW Apple ID and delete the existing one, is that possible?
Kindly, I really would appreciate your comment about this hug problem!!
Thanks for your time.
Phil

With the exception of you having a problem with your Apple ID, does your iPad work properly?
