Why does Apple ask to save passwords?

Why does Apple ask to save passwords?I am using PC's.

Thanks Doc, and apologies for tardy reply. I've checked the file permissions and all seems to be right. I've also re-made the bookfile with the same result.

Why does it ask my my password constantly?

Is there something wrong with my IPhone 4S? It asks me to give my password every 30 sec- 1 minute. It doesn't stop asking for my password. Is there a way to stop it?

You might have some app updates or other itmes that are trying to download.

HT1222 While installing why does it ask name and password ?

i was installing itunes as my software of laptop flied away so my itunes dint work so i redownloaded it and now it is asking me name and password which i dont know as i dint recover the mac software ... please help me i cant use my new ipad 3 because of this ...

It is asking the name and password for an administrator on the computer. If you are the only use then likely you are also the administrator and you need to use your log in name and password. OSX does this to prevent non-authorized installtion of software on a computer.

Why does TS ask to save 'NI_Database_Types.ini' every time I quite TS?

Ever since I installed TestStand 3.5 I have been getting this. Every time I quit the TestStand application, i get a popup box that says
'The following files are modified. Check the files you wish to save before exiting. You will lose any modifications to unchecked files.' and it always lists NI_DatabaseTypes.ini as a changed file.
I don't use databases.
I don't have them enabled. I have checked 'Disable Database Logging' and all of the tabs in the Database OPtions pane are greyed out.
All I have to do to duplicate this is to start up teststand and then quit teststand. I don't even need to load a sequence file.
What can I do to stop this annoying message?
(Why can't you guys introduce a new version without introducing new errors? )

Hi,
Out of interest, what do you install first, the LabVIEW or the TestStand.

Why does apple mail continuously reject password?

We have various networked macs that all keep throwing up the error message:
The POP server rejected your password for user. Please re-enter your password
You click cancel and it disappears and checks fine but then it flashes up again. It's becoming more and more regular on most of our accounts.
A solution would be most helpful!

Most common cause is more than one entry in Keychain, or corruption.
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

But of course it could be anything.

Why does Apple ask me to use "other account"?

When I try to download updates, get message that I "have updates available for other accounts. To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it." WHAT are they talking about? I've only ever had one account, though several Apple computers. Never encountered this before putting iOS 7 on iPad...... Now I can't update anything, and no longer have either App Store, or iTunes on iPad. Have Lion on 2008 MacBook Pro, and on Mac Mini. Have tried all the restart/ resets. Totally stuck.

It's not clear if your problem is with the iPad or one or both of your Macs. If it's the Macs, that response will sometimes occur if Spotlight is not indexing your boot disk or the index is corrupted. If it isn't already in there, include your boot drive in the Privacy panel of Spotlight Preferences, close Preferences, open it again, and delete your boot drive from the Privacy list. That forces reindexing. Be aware that that will take some time to complete and may still not solve your problem.

MotionX GPS App not working! Why does it ask for a password when I have no created one?

I'm reporting a problem with MotionX GPS. See title

You're tapping the blue button to the right of the network name. Don't, tap anywhere else in the network name. (That's my guess)

HT1349 Why does iPhone ask for apple password after rebooting?

Why does iPhone ask for apple password after rebooting? It just started to do that recently. I've had iPhone5 for several months now and it just started to do that.
Before I could reboot without having to type apple ID password to start using my phone.

Could be part of Apple's new security procedures that were implemented this past week.

TS3899 Why am I asked for my password every time I want to access my e mail accounts on iPhone 4s

Why does Apple misslead us selling what appears to be Game of Thrones Season 2 when in fact all it is - is a few trailers and the actual program is only available 18th Feb - this gives me a real bad feeling toward Apple and its branding!!!! deceitful

Why does Apple misslead us by selling what appears to be Season 2 Game Of Thrones when in fact it is only some timewasting trailers and the actual program is only available on 18th February 2013!
Deceitful comes to mind....
I am sure they will say it is in the small print and you should have read it and what you got was these 'Really Cool Trailers'......but come on Apple - don't screw up your BRAND now if you carry on you will have a core problem! My trust is waning.
Its is not like Aple will be stocked-out on the 18th February is it - in reality I guess they just want the money upfront well in advance of delivering the product....just not on Steve will be turning in his grave.....

etresoft, I think you are being unnecessarily harsh to gloriastitz. She is frustrated and doesn't understand computers at the level you do. What she is experiencing is frustrating, so she is frustrated. I have been a help-desk professional for over 15 years now, and emotions are part of the business.
I know it has been over 6 months since gloriastitz posted her reply. I hope she got a useful answer, but I fear we have satisfactorily scared her away from seeking help.
So, the first best response to tell someone is that the problem they are experience is almost certainly fixable, but may require more information to solve. You tell them you understand their frustration (even if you personally don't experience frustration or don't understand why people my express frustration publicly about a problem that frustrates them). It's just good protocol.
Then you work with the person to break down the problem into steps. If you don't have a ready answer and don't think you might even know the answer with sufficient data, then back out and leave it to others to tackle.
I've been having a similar problem with my Mail program. The cause is still unclear to me after vieweing the logs and changing settings where I know them to be. There appears to be a setting that is not clearly placed in any of the typical UI locations for initiating the desired action for either a feed: or mailto: call.

I think you are. This is not a place to rant and complain. It will just encourage people to give you unhelpful responses. If you want to complain, go elsewhere. If you want help, ask for it.
For example, can you explain what those dialog boxes actually say? Regardless of who is starting Mail, it will not prevent your machine from sleeping.

HT4059 Why am I asked for my password each time I open iBook? Started a week or two ago. 4th gen iPad with iOS 6.1.3. And iBooks 3.1.

Why am I asked for my password each time I open iBook? Started a week or two ago. 4th gen iPad with iOS 6.1.3. And iBooks 3.1.

Take it back to Best Buy and talk to the store manager. Possibly they can work something out with Apple.
In the meantime, try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Erased all saved passwords, rebooted, now TB does not ask for new password!

I erased all saved passwords as I've had to change the passwords on my accounts. I then rebooted and now TB does not ask for new password. I have rebooted entire computer and still no change.
Thanks!

I presume you removed the passwords via Tools > Options > Security > Passwords tab.
Do you have these settings in Account Settings:
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account.
* select: 'Check for new messages at start up'
* select: 'check for new messages every eg: 15 minutes'
* select : 'Automatically download new messages'
make other prefered settings and click on OK to save changes.

Why does apple tv not support amazon prime?

why does apple tv not support amazon prime?

If you have an iPhone/iPad it may be possibel to 'Airplay' from teh Amazon Prime app on the device - no Amazon Prime in UK so I can't confirm it works. Check reviews of the app in iTunes. Airplay is not something I like much as you have to have another device to work with the AppleTV.
As to why there is no native support for Amazon Prime on the AppleTV itself, we could ask the same for any number of services, but:
1 - Apple/Amazon are competitors to some extent so they may not want to
2 - It may simply not feature in Apple's plans for the device
3 - Rights owners may not allow Apple/Aamzon to collaborate
.....and dozens more possible reasons I suspect, none of which really make sense to you an I as a consumer...

In Address Book, why does Apple let you create custom fields in the Template cards but not have them available for importing?

I open Address Book, go into Preferences, select Template and under the Names field (friend, assistant, father, etc) I add a custom field called "Principal".
I also add two more custom fields in the Email area.
Quit Address Book then relaunch. Add a new contact and the new custom fields, Principal, etc. are there. All good so far.
I have a Now Contact file with about 200 contacts in it. I export all fields as a Text file, Tab delimited. No problems there. With Address Book launched, select Import, pick the text file, leave Text Encoding on Automatic and click Open.
The window that shows the fields for Address Book and fields for the text file side by side opens. This is where you match up the correct fields for importing. If I go to one of the fields from the text file that I created a custom field for, click under the Address Book heading on the Do not import, scroll thru the Apple choices of fields, none of the custom fields show up. Only the original Apple ones are there. Why does Apple let you create them in the Template area but not have them available for importing? Does anyone have suggestions on getting around this?

While most likely not of interest to you, Spotlight can also tell you where the files it finds are located
Hover the mouse pointer over the name, and press Command-Option and the path to the file will be displayed.
As for opening a terminal session in the directory where a file is located, there is Applescripts that do just that as well as specific features in Lion/Mountain Lion terminal:
