SOLVED - iOS 6 WiFi issue. Re-enter iCloud password.

Delete iCloud, recreate, enter password.
Solved

Same problem here.
Ive also also noticed it effects iMessages.
They won't be received by the watch and outgoing messages only send as sms texts when initiated on the watch.
i tried turning off/on iMessage on the phone, it worked for a few min, then the watch unexpectedly lost my iMessage conversations again.
Whats weird is that I'll still receive the notification about receiving an iMessage, and can even preview it on the screen. But there's no reply option and loading the message app on the watch loads an empty chat log.

Why my home wifi connection ipad2 enter the password after the password has been wrong? Password is the phone able to connect after the connection is ipad2 has been an error?

Hello joe2616,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To troubleshoot this issue where your Wi-Fi network is dropping, please follow the directions outlined below.
Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly
Your Mac may not not stay connected to your Wi-Fi network reliably.
Your Mac may stop accessing the Internet during use.
Solution
Use these steps if your computer disconnects from its Wi-Fi network unexpectedly.
Check your range to the Wi-Fi router and reduce the effect of interference.
If your computer is too far from your Wi-Fi router or your environment has too much Wi-Fi interference, then your computer may not detect the Wi-Fi network properly. The easiest way to check for range limits with your Wi-Fi network is to move your computer or your Wi-Fi router closer together and make sure that there are no obstructions (such as walls, cabinets, and so forth) between the router and your computer.See Potential sources of wireless interference for more information about interference and solutions.
Try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. If your computer works fine when connected to a different Wi-Fi network, then the issue may be related to your network router or ISP. In that case, contact the manufacturer of your router or your ISP.

IOS wifi issues...

Overnight my iOS devices (iPad 1, mini, iPhones 5 and 4) are struggling with my wifi network (BT HomeHub 3 with various extenders around the home).
It will show as connected but then not allow an internet connection. (e.g. on Twitter it won't download anymore tweets). Whilst in safari, trying to access a website a box appears asking for a username and password (almost as if you are logging in to a private network) even for sites where no such exists or I have been asked for one before.
This is very perplexing. It does not seem to be the router, even by turning Homehub off and on again, it still persists. Yet, it doesn't happen all the time, sometimes I can access apps, safari at the same point in the house fine, then next minute it won't work.
There seems to be no trigger to this... I've not updated my devices with new iOS and as far as I'm aware there has been no BT update...
Any advice welcome.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Why am i being asked to enter icloud password on ipad a lot?

i changed my icloud password recently and now am regularly being asked to enter my password when on my ipad. Did i miss a setting?

Hi JOfromON,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that you have recently changed your Apple ID password, and since then have been getting repeatedly prompted to enter in your password on the iPad. I'd like you to first sign out of iCloud, and then sign back in with your new information.
On your iOS device: Go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Sign Out (Delete Account in iOS 7 and earlier).
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
Cheers,
Alex H.

Is there anyway to avoid having to re-enter iCloud password each time I log into my iPhone?

I just updated to iOS5 and I want to use ICloud for backup. However, everytime I log into my iPhone, it wants me to re-enter my iCloud password. I have a passcode enabled on my iPhone so I'm hoping I don't have to re-enter the iCloud password everytime. Does anyone know if there is a way to prevent this from happening?
I'm even OK with having to sync to iCloud manually in some way so that only then do I have to enter the iCloud password, but I don't see anyway to configure it to be run manually. Does anyone know if that is possible?
Thanks for any help on this.
Chris

Hi,
In Keychain Access app in the Menu for the App is Keychain First Aid.
If you open this is the tick box for Synchronising the Login password with the so called Login Keychain ticked ?

Why do I keep getting message to enter iCloud password?

Whenever I quit Mail and then reopen it, I get a drop-down message: "Mail can't connect to the iCloud account 'xxxx@mecom'. Enter password for user 'xxxx'." I enter my password, and all is well. Looking at Mail>System Preferences>Internet accounts>iCloud>Mail is checked. Looking at OS System Preferences>iCloud, my Apple ID is ok, Name is ok, Description is ok (iCloud). This problem started 2 days ago. What am I missing? Why isn't my Password being retained?

same thing started happening to me today. I never actually use it, but I keep connected just in case i need it. Could be a keychain prob with mav. Noticed my apple login key is in there twice, but only one has a cert. I think the cert is for my Itunes tho.

How do I delete my "pre-entered" iCloud password from other devices on my account?

I set up "Find My iPhone" on my kids' phones by logging into iCloud on each device. But now, my iCloud password is now "pre-entered" (but not shown) onto each of their devices. How do I delete the password so that no one can log into my iCloud account? If one of their phones were stolen and someone figured out their 4 digit passcode (not that difficult) that person would have access to my iCloud account and could just turn off the "find my iPhone" feature. What am I missing???

You can set up a restriction with a different passcode by going to Setting>General>Restrictions>Accounts (near the bottom) and setting it to not allow changes. This will prevent access to the iCloud setting without turning off restrictions with the passcode, but it's still a 4-digit passcode and can be defeated by forcing the phone into recovery mode and restoring it. (This would erase the phone, however.)
If you do enable restrictions, be sure to write down the passcode. If you ever forget it, you cannot turn off restrictions without restoring the phone as new, without using a backup made while the restrictions passcode was set on it.

Must enter iCloud Password at every login

Since migrating to new Mac mini from MBP, I am now asked to enter my iCloud Password at every login or restart (see image). However, when entering my password, I get an endless loop of the same dialog box. How do I stop this from happening?

Thank you for the solution that worked for me. I signed out completely from iCloud, then signed back in and the dialog boxes went away.
I suspect during the migration process not all iCloud associations were re-connected, but who knows?
Thanks again!

IOS 7.1.2 permanently iCloud password request, iMessage issue

I have an iPhone 4S. Since the last update the phone requested my Apple-ID-Password 3-6 times a day. A few days ago the phone deactivated the iCloud sync an deleted my contacts, calendar etc. An other day it deactivated iMessage. I have to activate iMessage and FaceTime about 1 time a week. Sometimes it starts a new conversation with my phone number, although my apple id is selected.Not to mention game center. sometimes i can reach it, sometimes not.
My boyfriend has the same problem.
I already deleted my account and reinstalled it. I did the same with the iTunes and Game-Center account. In this moment I'm trying to reset the phone, but now I have some trouble with the download. The whole thing totally drives me crazy.

What is your question? There is no question here.

Solved IOS 6 issue with headphone remote

Upgraded my Iphone 4S to IOS 6 and my Klipsch headphone remot would not work. Volume buttons worked, and the center button would start playing music, but it would not stop or pause the songs. I tried my original Apple earbugs with the remote and did not have any problems. The I used the Klipsch again, and now they work great.
Sounds strange, but that is what happened.

Hi All,
I was facing all sorts of issues with my earphone controls.
This solved my problem.
Double click home button. (press twice).This will show you all the apps that you have currently open.
Long click on the 1st app in the list [about 3 seconds]. This will make the icons wiggle and show a red minus sign on the left hand top corner.
Scroll [right] to see your music app (if you can't see it already).
Press the red minus sign. This will completely close the music app.
Restart your music app and things should be back to normal. [I also would close all other app in the same fashion, just in case, cause things like youtube apps use the controls on your earphones as well. ]
In short: - kill, kill-em-all and restart your music app.

Hi shelly92555,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on your current situation. If you are saying that you are unable to unlock the original iPhone due to a passcode issue, you may find the following article helpful:

Anyconnect ios Wifi issues after roaming

IOS 5 issues, back up restore password.

I never created a back up restore password but itunes is asking me for one. I can't back up my ipod unless I figure this out. I've lost al my pics and videos. Please help if you can.

No, if you can't remember the password then you won't be able to restore to that backup - there wouldn't be much use in having password protected backups if the password could be bypassed

Does ios 6.1.3 wifi issues get solved in next update?

Has anyone solved their wifi issues after new update of ios ? Coz i am having wifi issues since i updated my iphone 4s to 6.1.2 . I dont think it is a hardware failure... I have tried resetting my iphone as new device. I have checked my router settings which is a netgear make.
Please help if new software updates help solve this problem? I have updated this from 6.1.2 to 6.1.3 but unfortunately the problem persisted after updating my device to latest ios running. I guess many are having same issues. GUYS WE MUST DO SOMETHING SO THAT APPLE LISTENS US ATLEAST.

I'm having the same issue since 6.1.2. I worked throught the various checklists and nothing has worked. What I have noticed is most of the 'fixes' require me to do someithing with my home router. I don't understand that as I use my phone as a hotspot or internet connection while I'm away from home and on 3G. That part doesn't make sense.
When the phone is connected it is recognized in iTunes but not in the System Preferences Network Settings page.
I used to connect my phone to my Mac via USB and opt to use the USB Only option for HotSpot with the Mac WIFI off. The blue bar on the phone comes on indicating that HotSpot is working. It has worked for me like that until 6.1.2. Since then the USB Only option does not work and I have to use WIFI on both the phone and the Mac. If I'm lucky, I get a connection and can get my mail and do some surfing before it drops the connection. The blue bar that comes up on the phone is there indicating the hotspot is on, but the connection is lost. A dozen or so resets, of either my Mac or my phone, later and I might get a connection again. That's no way to do business.
All I did was update the phone when it told me there was an update available. Did I miss something?

SOLVED - iOS 6 WiFi issue. Re-enter iCloud password.
