Why am I asked repeatedly to "sign in to iCloud" when my phone is charging?

Whenever I try to unlock my iPhone (iPhone 4 recently upgraded to iOS 7.1.2) while it is charging, I am prompted to "Sign in to iCloud".  This is annoying because frequently when I unlock my phone it is because there is something specific I need to access and this login prompt slows me down.
I assume this is somehow related to the automatic iCloud backup which is supposed to only occur when my phone is connected to power and wifi and locked.   When I go into iCloud backup properties I see my backup has not run for several weeks although it is set to run automatically.  I assume this means that iCloud authentication is somehow failing or the backup is somehow failing to start.
I can hit the "backup now" button, so I'm not worried too much that I don't have a recent backup, but I would like to correct this issue, both so my iCloud backup runs automatically and so that I don't get prompted repeatedly to sign in.  Has anyone seen this issue before or does anyone have a suggestion about what I can try to get around this?

  • IPhone keeps asking me to sign int to iCloud

    Since the last OS update, my iPhone keeps asking me to sign in to iCloud when I fire it up EVERY time.  I did this a few times but get tired of it.  Is there any way to either get it to accept my sign in as the norm or to just quit asking?  Thanks.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -Power off and then back on your router
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             

  • My photoshop CC acts like I have a trial account and asks repeatedly to sign on

    My photoshop CC acts like I have a trial account and asks repeatedly to sign on.  This happens about one third of the time I try and use CC.  This is very frustrating as each time I have to resign on, enter my email and password which takes about 5 minutes each time.  Once I sign on it acts like this is a new account although I have a clould account for a couple months now.  How do I get this to stop?

    You may be prompted to sign in but if you are on an annual plan you have up to 99 days to sign in. If you are on month to month then you may have up to 30 days to sign in. You can find more details on this in the Creative Cloud FAQ athttp://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html.
    Do I need ongoing Internet access to use my Adobe® Creative Cloud™ desktop applications?
    No. Your Creative Cloud desktop applications (such as Adobe® Photoshop® and Illustrator®) are installed directly on your computer, so you won't need an ongoing Internet connection to use them on a daily basis.
    An Internet connection is required the first time you install and license your desktop apps, but you can use the apps in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop apps will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days.
    For annual members, you can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode.

  • I own CS6 -  why is it asking me to sign up for a trial copy?  I cannot open any of my files.

    I own CS6 -  why is it asking me to sign up for a trial copy?  I cannot open any of my files.

    Have you purchased the CS6 with a perpetual license? Or do you have a Creative Cloud subscription?
    If you had the former, you'd have a serial number. If the latter, you'd use your Adobe ID to login to your subscription.

    I have Acrobat/Adobe Pro, why does it ask me to sigh in or subsribe when I go to convert a file?

    You need to sign in to validate your subscription or serial number. Have you already done this once, and it still is asking?
    Sometimes with Creative Cloud, I find that I get signed out and have to sign back in. This shouldn't be an issue for a serial number based version, once you've provided your Adobe ID.

    I have an IPad mini and I changed the Apple ID and the password almost one year ago and, for a while, a message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops- up constantly. My ICloud account is registered with an old email address and password. I do not remember the password to my ICloud account, and ID address that my ICloud account is registered under is an old email adress which is deleted right now (the old mail account is deleted). I don’t have a rescue email adress and I don’t know the answers to the security questions, so I have no way of changing the ICloud password. A message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops up constantly, but I always just hit cancel. However, now I am unable to access Find My IPad. How do I get my ICloud account changed and registered to be under my current Apple ID (email) and password? It is possible to set the device as New Ipad?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address.  My other devices all have the correct address.  How can I get the correct address for my iPhone?  The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

    To change the iCloud ID 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 (if you're using iOS 7), 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, tap Edit, 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.

  • I receive a message to sign in to iCloud when replying to a message from another email account

    I receive a message to sign in to iCloud when replying to a message from another email account

    Does that happen all the time? I just got the same message when trying to open an email in one of my mail accounts and I don't even have iCloud mail, but I was in the process of setting up a brand new iPad Air 2 and I just assumed that it is a security feature that randomly popped up because it was a new device. I do think that I recall that occurring in the past though, and I assume it's simply a security feature.

    If you can’t remember your password, or you see a message that your account has been disabled for security reasons (which might happen if someone tried and failed to sign in multiple times), you need to change or reset your password.

    Your CVV code is asked for whenever the Terms & Conditions for the iTunes Store have changed, or if you access the iTunes Store from a new device, This prompt does not indicate any actual charges.
    Yes it is okay to enter your CVV code on free apps, as well as any apps from the iTunes Store as you are giving your CVV code to APPLE itself, and not to the app developer.

  • PDapp.exe asking me to sign in but crashes when i do

    Hi there,
    I use Photoshop CC on 3 devices (work, home & laptop) but never at the same time obviously - this means I have to sign in every now and again and boot the other devices off - that's fine and has worked OK since launch.
    In the last week I'm having trouble with this, the PDapp.exe window is popping up and asking me to sign in, but when I enter & submit the credentials, the window goes grey & the lower right indicator just starts spinning indefinitely - no error, no warnings or anything - I have to kill the app with task manager.
    I've tried leaving it running for minutes, sometimes hours with no difference - meanwhile photoshop is working fine.
    Any ideas?
    Regards
