Why do i need to keep entering my icloud password

I moved from Mobile Me to iCloud and my wife is frustrated that she keeps getting messages to enter her iCloud password on her iphone. Any ideas how to change the settings so she stays logged in?

  • Why do I have to keep entering my icloud password when I use air drop?

    Every time I turn on air drop it makes me put my icloud password in. My wife doesn't have to do that. I'm pretty sure it's just a setting, but I can't figure it out. Air drop is supposed to save time, but having to type in a password every time takes more time...

  • Why do I have to keep entering my itunes password on my ipad?

    Can anyone offer any suggestions on how to have my iTunes password stored so I don't have to keep entering it after I enter my passcode to begin doing anything?  To clarify, I have a passcode set up to begin after 15 minutes of inactivity.  Once that happens, when I reopen my iPad,  I am requested to enter my iTunes password as well.  This wasn't an issue before the last upgrade.  I have tried to find the answer on my own but I'm not having any luck.  
    Thanks for any suggestions on how to eliminate this minor hassle or let me know if I have to live with it.

  • Why do I have to keep providing my iCloud password over and over

    Every time, I go into a new app, like leaving mail to follow and imbedded link URL, I get prompted again for my iCloud password. It doesn't matter whether or not I provide the password, it just keeps on trucking. But the nuisance is still there!

    Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll (or Save Image if you have iOS 8), then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account), choose Delete from My iDevice and provide your password when prompted (your data will still be in iCloud).  Then sign back in (your data will download back to your device).  That should stop the ongoing prompts for your password.

  • I keep entering correct icloud password but keeps saying it is incorrect. what do i do ?

    I've changed my password numerous times trying to get it to sign me in. and it is still saying incorrect password.

    Well, that is probably part of the problem. Where is it that you are trying to sign in? Are you getting a little window asking you to sign in?
    And were you changing your password in Manage your Apple ID?
    Cheers,

  • I just updated my iphone 4 to ios6 and now I can't keep the wifi connection to stay on. I have to keep entering my wifi password when the phone goes to sleep. How do I keep the wifi connection when I wake up the phone?

    I just updated my iphone 4 to ios6 and I can't keep the wifi connection when the phone goes to sleep. I need to keep entering my wifi password when I wake up the phone. How do I keep the wifi on each time I walk into my house without reentering my password?

    What? Do you work for Apple?
    I have been on the phone for Apple since 5:30 Eastern Time today. We are still on the phone with them. It is 10:14 PM. We are going to get a new phone because the ios6 has major problems! The wifi connectivity is a serious problem. Apple is aware of it. More people need to do something about it. I am willing to start a class action suit against them. I have means to an attorney pro bono. If you are having problems using your iphone 4 or 4s with wifi and ios6...I suggest you spend time calling a senior advisor and get a new phone sent to you. They know they messed up but they can't fix it.

  • Prompted to enter my iCloud password

    iCloud mail has been down for me and a number of other users since early morning yesterday. I suspect a system problem at Apple. With luck it will be up soon.

    The verification lists my card data and address etc. correctly but I need to keep entering the card security number.

    Seems to be something to do with a new security check they have put in the system that does not work correctly and support is totally incapable of helping me out.
    wth am i gonna do im feed up and on top i have no one to help me been calling itunes for days now im ****** off to the maxxx

    I've been jumping through the hoops with Apple Support on this issue....first time I called they said I should try updating from IOS 4.0 to 4.1....tried that and the issue still persisted...then I called back to update the ticket and get the next steps...they said that the Bank is rejecting the request for verification and that is why it keeps prompting (which doesn't make sense since the confirmation seems to go through successfully). The rep also contacted the iTunes dept and had them run the verify manually and said the bank rejected it. The next hoop they want me to jump through is calling the bank to verify that the account is in good standing and inquire about the rejected requests. I'm fairly certain the bank account is in good standing....will verify of course....but I find it hard to believe that all the people who have posted here, plus countless others that are experiencing the same issue but haven't, are ALL having banking issues in the last 24hrs...I'm more convinced there is a disconnect on the back end between iTunes and Financial institutions...
    I'm not sure I buy in to everything I was told...he also told me he has had several calls on this issue and they were all told to check with their banks. He could not verify that any of his past calls were resolved. Needless to say I'm not 100% believing everything he told me....weak response from Apple support on this issue so far.

  • My iPhone keeps asking me to enter my iCloud password, Why?

    Almost every time I enter the mail app, and randomly throughout the day, my iPhone keeps popping this box up asking for me to enter my iCloud password. I enter it and it goes away. I know the password I'm entering is correct, but, my question is - why is this happening? I've had every iPhone ever made and just recently bought the 6 Plus and this is the first time ever I've encountered the issue. Any help on getting this annoying popup to stop is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Try signing out of the acount comletely and then signing back in again. If it doesn't help and you have more devices, sign out everywhere and try again.

  • I am very regularly asked to enter my icloud password on my iPhone, why ??

    Hi,
    first sorry for the mistakes i could make writing those lines, i am french and my poor english could bother you
    I have a problem using my new iPhone 5S (Silver 64 Go)
    I often have to enter my iCloud Password, and even sometimes i am told it is wrong !
    Why do I have to enter it several times a day, a hour ?
    I also have a similar problem on my iPad, with my email account passwords. I have to type them several times a day, and i have 5 email accounts. That is awful. Apple had never got me used to having problems or bugs before... Disappointing and tiring !!
    Please help, and again forgive my grammar or voc mistakes :/

    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.

  • I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I cant get a reset all of my credentials dont work.

    I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I can’t get a reset all of my credentials don’t work. Now all my apps won’t work. it looks like they load for half a second then disappear. What can I do?

    - Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    - For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
    - Instead, try restoring from backup.

  • HT5858 how do you turn off the need to hit enter once the password is entered

    How do you turn off the need to hit enter once a password is entered?

    Can you try logging on as another administrative user?  (Make another user, if necessary.)
    And just for the heck of it, if you click the lock and unlock the rest of the controls, does the checkbox appear?
    Another thought: is your computer part of a Windows domain or other network?  Is there a policy on the network to require a screen saver password?  (For example on my office's Windows network, a screen saver password requirement is set in the Group Policy.  I'm assuming that something similar can be done with an OSX server, if you haven't joined the Mac to a Windows Active Directory network.)
