Why am I being asked to reset my Apple ID Password every day or 2??

Every day or 2 I am being told my password is invalid and I am receiving e-mails from Apple saying my password has been reset. It is getting rather annoying have to enter a new password every 2 days!! Any help???

Cause you entering incorrect info for login too many times. Perhaps mixup happens cause you use more then one ID and it gets hard to control which password you use for which id. Suggest come up with ONE password and next time you are prompted to do that on another account, use same password. If I am wrong, and you do not have more then one account - may be someone else is using your account or trying to login with incorrect info that they deem to be correct.

HT5622 Why do i keep receiving emails asking to reset my apple id password

Why do i keep recieving emails asking to reset my apple id password ?

It looks real, so smeone may be trying to break into your account if you keep receiving them. Rather than use a link in the email, you can use the link below to change your password or set up 2-step verification if your have an iPhone.

Someone ask to reset my Apple ID password

Hi everyone,
first of all sorry for my bad english.
I explain my issue: when i woke up this morning, i find 2 e-mail (from [email protected]) on my mailbox which contain links to reset my Apple ID password, but i didn't ask that!
Indeed, that happened at 2 and 3 o'clock AM, when i was sleeping.
So i'd like to know:
- how can i understand if my Apple ID has been stolen?
- what can i do to preserve my Apple ID security? Change password?
Thank you all. Bye

Your English is not so bad at all. Well done.

Why am I being asked to enter my apple ID every time I unlock my iPAD?

For some reason in just the last few days, each time I unlock my iPAD it is asking me to enter my Apple ID. I didn't change anytiing in my settings. I did go to settings to find something that may be causing this and cannot locate anything. This is not a major issue, other than it is simply annoying. Not sure if anyone else has run into this and has any suggesitons on how to correct it. FYI, I am using an iPAD2 on the latest SW. Thanks!

Correct, the passcode lock is not activated. So I can hit cancel when it asks me for it and continue. It isn't stopping me from doing anything but like I said, it is just one of those annoyances I would like to make go away.
I am wondering if it has something to do with a game I downloaded from the Apple Sotre called Virtual Pool. Because somethimes when I go to add a new app, I get some error messga saying the store cannot download Virtual Pool right now when I never asked it to and I already have the game loaded and working properly on my iPAD. Would that be a possible cause perhaps? The iPAD thinks I still need ot download the game when I don;t so it keeps asking me for my Apple ID?

Why am I being forced to change my Apple ID Password

I am no longer able to access my Apple ID account settings as every time I log in I am prompted to change my password. My password absolutely meets all the minimum requirements and yet I cannot get past the login for being forced into changing the password. Is this defective behavior on the Apple site or is Apple really forcing me to change my password?

Hi mad4dogz,
Welcome to the Support Communities! So that I can understand your question, where are you trying to log in when the password request happens? Are you at iCloud.com, or using email, or iTunes, FaceTime or iMessage? Are you getting an error message that states to change the password, or is it that when you enter your password, you can't get past the log in screen? Are you working with a Mac, an iPhone or iPad, or a PC?
The first thing I would suggest is to go to the Apple ID website, sign in with your password, and confirm that the one you are currently using is correct. If you change the password here, you will need to change it in each of the settings I mentioned above.
Apple ID: Changing your password - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201355
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Click “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you're unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
Click "Password and Security".
In the "Choose a new password" section, click Change Password.
Enter your old password, then enter a new password and confirm the new password. Click Save when done.
The next time you use an Apple feature or service that uses Apple ID, you'll be asked to sign in with your new Apple ID password.
If you are using an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod touch) - I would first restart the device. If you still get the prompt, then you may need to reset the device.
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201559
If the issue still persists, then re-entering the password information for each of the services above would be the next thing to try. You can do this from the Settings app on the iOS devices; System Preferences on your Mac; or iCloud Control Panel on a PC.
Sorry this information is somewhat vague, but without knowing the details above, it will hopefully give you some ideas for troubleshooting the issue.

Why does my 4S ask me to confirm my iCloud password every night ?

Sorry to ask my question is the header. Anyway, just stated asking for the password every night around midnight. I enter and all seem OK. I’m confused.
Thanks

Happens to me also - but not every night but every couple of nights - says it needs it to do backup. I'd love to know why it "loses" my password every couple of days.

HT4199 Why am I being asked to reset my router because I can't connect to a game app but everything else is working fine?

I've been told to reset my router as a possible solution to not being able to connect to a game app. Why is this when my connection is fine for everything else, including other game apps ?
Thanks

From my own experience Routers can be a little 'fussy' from time to time. For example my other half may well be happily surfing the 'net on her iPad but mine won't connect, however after a quick 'reset' of the router - unplug it for about 30seconds, then plug back in - all is happy and working again. So this may be the reason why.
Regards,
Steve

HT204053 why am I being asked to update my apple account?

I got an email requesting me to confirm and update my account information. Is this a valid request or a scam?

It's probably a scam. Ignore it.

Why am I being asked to authenticate for example when dragging a picture from an email to my desktop? Can this be turned off? It started with Lion

Why am I being asked to authenticate by entering my password when for example dragging a picture from an email to my desktop? This started with Lion. Is there a way to turn it off? Thanks,

I found that right clicking on my hard drive, Get Info and under Sharing & Permissions when the Privilege was changed to Read & Write, the authentication pop ups stopped and I could drag pictures to my desktop and save attachments there also. Now my hubby and I will investigate the Names under S&P. We know one is System, another is him sharing. There is a third that says everyone so it will be the main one we research. I get the basics of what they are - to secure folders etc. from someone getting into my computer. I'm sure this is a pretty basic description of the issue so I guess if you read this and try any of this to stop the authentication, you should make sure you know what and why.
Thanks for your help softwater.

HT204053 why have i been asked for 2 times to reset my apple id password ??????????

why have i been asked for 2 times to reset my apple id password ??????????

You are being phished and spammed. Ignore these. If you reply to any of them the result is to give out the password to your iTunes account.

iCloud backs up your iOS device (not your Mac) automatically. You can remove the backup:
http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm122d3ef202
and it will not back up again. This will not affect a backup made using iTunes. The notice you see refers to calendars, contacts, iWork documents and so on, which live on the server and are read from there by your Mac, and so will obviously disappear if you turn iCloud off altogether (which you don't need to do) or turn off Documents (which you don't need to do either).

Why am I regularly asked to reset my iCloud password?

It happens ever few months. Others don't seem to have this problem. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way around it?

Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.

I recall it happening to me once. I inadvertently had the caps lock on and after numerous failed attempts, I was asked to verify my account or reset my password.

Why am i being asked for proof of purchase?

Hi everyone, I live in Australia and bought a student and teacher edition of cs 6 design standard for a Mac from Officeworks, a major Australian reseller, about a month ago and have been trying to get my serial number emailed to me for over a week.
I have provided proof of eligibility but am now being asked to provide proof of purchase.
It took 5 attempts to even send through my proof of eligibility and has taken 3 days (not including the weekend) to get any sort of reply from Adobe.
I'd like to know why i am being asked to provide this as there is no mention of it being required on Adobe's order fulfillment/instruction page.

Inlink if you are being asked for your serial number then it is usually due to the computer not being able to reach the activation server. Please see Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CC, CS6, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html for information on how to resolve the connection failure.
