Why do I have to enter my Apple ID password every time on the iOS app?

Every time I open the iTunesU app on my iPad I need to authenticate. I'm guessing it is due to being a course creator but is this really necessary?

You're right, it's because you're a course creator or contributor.

  • Why do i have to enter my apple id for every purchase

    Why do I have to enter my apple id for every purchase in the app store. I thought the new ios would remember it every time.

    It only "remembers" such for 15 minutes after the first purchase. This is done for security reasons. It is app updates that no longer require a password.

  • I have to re-enter my Apple ID Password every time I open iBooks

    I am prompted to re-enter my Apple ID Password evertime I open iBooks on my iPad and iPhone.  I tried signing out and in again to iTunes but it dd not help.  This only started with upgrade to iOS 7.

    It could be something that needs to be fixed by Apple since there are other reports. I don't use that feature on my 5s so I can't comment. I wouldn't think you have to enter your password over and over. And since there doesn't seem to be any documentation from Apple other than below from this URL, who knows.
    Your fingerprint can also approve purchases from iTunes Store, the App Store, and the iBooks Store, so you don’t have to enter your password.
    Also, see here which also mentions the issue and that Apple recognizes it as an issue to be fixed.

  • Why do I have to enter my apple ID password at the end of watching TV shows?, why do I have to enter my apple ID password at the end of watching TV shows???

    I don't mind repetedely entering my password while downloading shows. But after downloading shows and then watching I am prompted to enter the account password once again about a minute before they end. This is annoying and unnecessary. Very Microsoft-like annoyning. Someone at Apple needs to fix iTunes.
    Not to mention the inability to sort unwatched shows from older seasons on iTunes 11. I buy a lot of content and it has become painful lately to manage the content. iTunes 11 is a disaster. Please fix.

  • Every time I unlock my iPhone 4, I have to enter my Apple ID password.  Why?

    Every time I unlock my iPhone 4, I have to enter my Apple ID password.  Why?

    Settings>Store...make sure you are signed in. If not, sign in. If you are signed in, tap the ID shown...sign out...then sign back in.

  • HT201485 why do I have to enter my Apple ID and Password several times each time I launch iTunes

    Why do I have to enter my Apple ID and password several times to enable automatic downloads each time I launch iTunes? I get no password errors.
    I've also notice that some secure websites, e.g., banks, tell me each time I log on to them  that they don't recognize my computer. I don't know if that's related.
    I use two different wifi networks each day, one work, one home
    I am using OS X 10.10.1 on a macbook pro retina, mid 2012
    2.6 ghz core i7 8GB,
    iTunes 12.0.1.26

    That seems strange. Try an iPad reset and see if this fixes the problem,
    Reset your iPad by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPad  will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
    Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
    Good luck and do report back.

  • Why do I have to enter my apple ID every time I use my software?my new software is always waiting to be installed

    how can I solve this problem

    Are you talking the app store on the iPhone?
    If you are, it has to do with control of getting the updates and control of downloading new software.  Sometimes there will be an update when someone won't want an update.  Requiring the password would give someone better control over what gets installed.  Or if there's new software, it will give a parent, for example, better control over what gets purchased or even just downloaded, in the case of a free app.
    I'm not an Apple employee, but I'm pretty sure Apple doesn't consider it a problem.  They tend to err on the side of caution, especially when money is involved.  Requiring the apple id password every time definitely does that.

  • Help! I have to keep entering my wifi WEP password every time I slide my iphone 4S on  again.  It doesn't store the password as it should.

    Help! I have to keep entering my wifi WEP password every time I slide my iphone 4S on  again.  It doesn't store the password as it should.

    The use of WEP is not recommended for compatibility, reliability, performance, and security reasons; WEP is insecure and functionally obsolete. Any reason you're using WEP? I ask, because you might as well not have any security at all, & this is most likely your issue.

  • Why do i have to sign in to my wifi every time i turn ipad mini on

    why do i have to sign in to my wifi every time i turn ipad mini on

    Do #5.
    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
