TS3988 Why is it that some mornings I have to re log into iCloud on my iPhone? This was an old bug.    It's back!

Some mornings I need to re log into iCloud on my iPhone ? Why? This is not consistent. 

If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  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. 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.  You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then  on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

    I changed my apple ID password but I cant log into icloud on my iphone. Why?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • I recently got the iPhone 5 and I wanted all my pictures from my 4 to transfer over .. So I logged into iCloud on my iPhone 5 and it only uploaded 335 pics.. I had way more than that.. What do I do?

    I recently got the iPhone 5 and I wanted all my pictures from my 4 to transfer over .. So I logged into iCloud on my iPhone 5 and it only uploaded 335 pics.. I had way more than that.. What do I do?

    You should be importing all pics taken with your iphone to your computer as you would with any digital camera.  Have you failed to do this?

  • HT5624 How can I track the MACbook Pro that just used my apple ID to log into iCloud?  (I just got an email stating that someone just used it?)

    Here is the email:
    Your Apple ID ([email protected]) was used to sign in to iCloud on a MacBook Pro 13".  I had a MacBook Pro stolen in January and I'm wondering if someone was using that stolen computer to login??
    Anyway to track the computer trying to log in using my other Apple ID?

    If you activated the Find My iPhone service (in System preferences>icloud), then you can try to track it.  Using another computer's browser, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page.  On a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account.  Note:  The Find My iPhone **app** does not turn on the service, you can only do that through Settings>icloud.
    If the mac is listed as "offline", then you can't track it.

  • When trying to sign up on some sites my att email address says invalid. I have no trouble logging into email, facebook, banking. This is mostly on new sites I am trying to sign up on. This does not seem to happen on IE.

    This happened on the Virgin mobile website, as well as the Indeed website when trying to apply for a job. Have had this happen other times as well.

    Sites usually don't check whether your address is alive, they mostly check the format. For example, [email protected] (has @ and a valid domain).
    Do you use any add-ons that help fill out forms? If so, maybe clear your email address in there and re-enter it to make sure it doesn't contain unexpected characters.
    BTW, what version of Firefox are you running?

  • Why do I have to keep logging into icloud on my mac to check my mail?  Why won't icloud save my info?, Why do I have to keep logging into icloud on my mac to check my mail?  Why won't icloud save my info?

    Everytime I open the icloud page I have to relog in with my username and password.  Even if I click "keep me signed it."  It is a royal pain. 
    On a similar note...how do I get my icloud mail account to open in imail like allof my other email accounts????   Thanks

    Your signature says you have 10.6.8 - assuming this to be correct, you need to set Mail up manually to access your iCloud email as detailed here:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

  • Why is it that some songs get listed on their own even though they are part of an album?

    Why is it that some songs get listed on their own even though they are part of an album? They are always songs that I had on my computer not imported from a cd using iTunes. I have verified that all the info is correct and matches the other songs in the album. Sometimes I can check the "compilation" box on all the songs in the album and that will put them in order and in the same listing. I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure this out.

    Good One CL.
    What I did in this case is select all the songs in the album and select Get Info and see if  Album Artist and Album and Sort Artist and Sort Album Artist and Sort Album are the same.

  • Why is it that some missed calls don't show up in the missed calls list?

    Why is it that some missed calls don't show up in the Missed Calls list?

    Missed calls can only appear in your missed call list if your phone knows about them.  In other words, if the phone rang, but you did not answer.
    If a call was missed because your phone was turned off or not in a strong enough service area to receive the call, then it will not show up on your phone.

  • HT3228 Why is it that when I delete an email message from an account on my iPhone it instantly disappears from the same email account on my wife's iPhone?

    Why is it that when I delete an email message from an account on my iPhone it instantly disappears from the same email account on my wife's iPhone? We both have iOS7 and have imap email accounts.

    not all mail providers sync the send mail part of the mail box
    you can try to contact yahoo if this is the case with them

  • Why is it that the interfaces cannot have static methods?

    why is it that the interfaces cannot have static methods?

    Interfaces contain polymorphic methods. Static methods are not polymorphic, and therefore would not make any sense to be in interfaces.

    Running Time Machine for the first time, how that I make sure that some information I have in the external drive does not get erase in the prosess

    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Note: This is now your Library. It's not a Back Up, and you need another disk for backing up.

  • If icloud is not on my computer will that affect login into icloud through my iphone 4s

    the SIGN IN TO ICLOUD DIALOG BOX reappears after I enter my password. Additionally, icloud is not downloaded on to my computer. Why isn't icloud accepting my password ? How do I resolve this issue?

    Original Question:  if icloud is not on my computer will that affect
    login into icloud through my iphone 4s
    On my iphone, a dialog box appears asking for user login to icloud-- ENTER
    USER   "password".  After  I attempt to
    login  in to i-cloud the dialog box re-appears asking for AGAIN user
    password login and  will not remove from  main screen.
    ( Please continue reading and thank you for your response.) I received a response ques. asking, Are you trying to login to i-cloud? Yes, I was trying to login to         i-cloud in order to remove the dialog box which will not remove after each time, I entered the correct  i-cloud LOGIN USER "PASSWORD" requesting to be entered.
    My first thought was (my iphone does not have wifi connection) to connect to
    wifi because the user login is not connecting  permitting login to be
    accepted.  I selected cancel to bypass the dialog box asking for user
    Login password to icloud  in order to remove it from the home
    screen.    I attempt to go to wifi settings. The dialog
    box will re- appear preventing from SELECTING wifi settings because
    the dialog box does not give enough time to remove itself from main
    screen in order to  change wifi settings in which to allow wifi.
    Additionally, my thought it is the correct Login password being enter
    because when online at the icoud login page asking for username and password,
    both are accepted and allow access.
    Also, one thought to the issue, after opening iTunes it has stated that my
    icloud session has expired. My intentions at this moment are
    not to purchase a subscription to icloud at this time. Although i
    would like to access the account later on, if there wouldn't
    be conditional problems with iclouds at a later point in time, then there
    would not be any concerns deleting the icloud account in order to remove the
    icloud dialog box.  However, i would consider deleting acct as a last
    step.
    AS I TROUBLESHOOT THE ISSUE
    reasons for issue posted:
    iPHONE ISSUE -  the phone settings not set to sync phone with computer
    iPHONE ISSUE -  Needs to connect with internet
    ITUNES ISSUE-  THE ITunes settings not set correctly
    ICLOUD ISSUE-  SETTINGS NOT SET RIGHT OR 
    ACCOUNT IS  INVALID- NEED TO PAY FOR AN ACCOUNT
    ===================
    SO AFTER ATTEMPTING TO TROUBLESHOOT THE I -CLOUD  ISSUE ON THE PHONE
    1. THE PHONE SHOULD BE ACTIVE AND HAVE WIFI SERVICE.
    2.THE ICLOUD DIALOG BOX ASKING FOR ICLOUD USER LOGIN PASSWORD HAS TWO SELECTIONS. SHOWING "OK" BUTTON FOR ENTERING PASSWORD AND "CANCEL."   WIFI IS NEEDED TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.YOU MUST BE QUICK TO BYPASS THE DIALOG BOX AND ATTEMPT TO SELECT THE WIFI CONNECTION IN ORDER TO PROCEED TO RESOLVE I-CLOUD ISSUE WITH DIALOG BOX RE-APPEARING.
    ADDITIONALLY, I SELECTED TO DELETE THE ACCOUNT. JUST BEFORE I CHANGED SETTINGS AND CONNECTED WITH WIFI.
    I AM NOT SURE IF THE CHANGES WENT THROUGH.
    ADDITIONALLY , ON MY IPHONE 4S, I WENT TO SETTINGS MENU AND SAW THAT MY DATA WAS NOT ON!!
    I TURNED IT ON
    ICLOUD ON MY IPHONE ASKED TO LOGIN WITH USERNAME ACCOUNT AND USERNAME PASSWORD. AND THEN ASKED IF I WANTED TO MERGE ACCOUNT INFORNMATION.
         I MYSELF, UNSURE OF THE OUTCOMES CHOSE NIETHER. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY RESPONSE UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE OF MERGING OR NOT MERGING ICLOUD ACCOUNT AND WAS IT A RESULT OF DELETEING THE OLD ICLOUD ACCOUNT.
    THE DIALOG BOX REMOVED ITSELF FROM THE MAIN SCREEN AND FROM MY UNDERSTAND ACCEPTED THE USERNAME PASSWORD WHEN I LOGGED IN AND UPDATED THE FILE,  AS A RESULT FROM THE START, WAS CHANGED DUE TO FORGETTIG THE OLD PASSWORD.
    AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING MYSELF, I LEARNED THAT YOU NEED WIFI   IN ORDER FOR THE CONNECTION TO GO THROUGH IN WHICH IS NEED FOR THE DEVICE TO COMMUNICATE. AND YOUR DATA ON YOUR PHONE SETTING SHOULD BE ON IN ORDER TO ALLOW WIFI CONNECTION TO BE ENABLED.
    IF MY UNDERSTANDING IS CORRECT, THOSE CHANGES SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED IN WHICH TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE OF THE DIALOG BOX FROM RE-APPEARING ON THE MAIN SCREEN.
    I WISH THERE WAS MORE HELP INVOLVED IN RESOLVING  THESE TECHNICAL ISSUES. I AM SERVING IN THE MILITARY OVERSEAS AND AS CALLED FOR TECHNICAL HELP, I WAS USING A PHONE CARD WITH A LIMITED AMOUNT OF MINUTES. MOST OF MY TIME WAS SPENT ON WAITING FOR ASSISTANCE AND STATING INFORMATION THAT SHOULD OF BEEN ASKED DURING THE WAIT PERIOD TO EXPEDITE THE PROCESS AND TIME WAS SPENT REPEATING INFORMATION WHICH HINDERED MY TIME TO RESOLVE ANY ISSUES.
    Thank you for the one response for assistance. I just wish  there had been more response for help.
    Additionally, for those whom use forums, your posts should be clear and concise, to the point, and I CAN NOT SAY THIS ENOUGH, EXPRESSED WITH A COMPLETE THOUGHT IN ORDER TO PREVENT AND AVIOD CONFUSION. MOREOVER, I SEE ALOT OF  EXPRESSED THOUGHTS THAT DON'T MAKE SENSE , APPEARING AS IF WHAT IS BEING POSTED ARE NOT BEING REVIEWED BEFORE THEY ARE POSTED.   I WOULD HOPE OTHERS READ THIS POST AND USE IT AS AN EXAMPLE ON HOW TO EXPRESS A POINT WHETHER IT BEING A COMMENT, QUESTION OR, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO EXPRESS HOW TO ACCOMPLISH A STEP BY STEP TASK , TO AVIOD ASSUMPTIONS. AGAIN, COMPLETE THOUGHTS ARE REQUIRED.
