Why does my iphone 6 ask for my iCloud password constantly

Hello, new to y iphone 6, all set up properly and double checked,
my main mail address constantly asks me to write down the iCloud password why?

To stop this, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your data will still be in iCloud), then sign back in (your data will download back to your phone.

    why does mavericks keep asking for my login password?

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
              Change Settings for Keychain "login"
    In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
              Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked
              Keep login keychain unlocked
    is not checked, check it.
    Select
              Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • Why is my iPhone asking for my iTunes password randomly and repeatedly?

    I have seen this question in several discussions, but all are archived. None had an answer.   I have 3 iPhone 4S's and 3 iPod Touch 4g's.  All, radomly but frequently enough to be annoying, display a pop up screen when first using the iPhone/Pod Touch (normally from sleep mode) asking for your iTunes password.  It gives you the option to select "cancel" or "enter"and sometimes I just hit cancel b/c I am so fed up with this.  I notice no problems if I do not enter my password and hit "cancel."  But, who knows if something is compromised by not giving the device what it "wants."   So, most of the time  I enter my password hoping that will satisfy the "beast" and it will not ask for it anymore.  No luck.
    I hope someone knows the answer to this before the "Gods of Archive" close this question/discussion.  I have to believe something is going on that is not right.
    One iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4g is running off a MacBook Pro running Lion 10.7.3
    Two iPhone 4s's and two iPod Touch 4g's are running off MacBook Pros running Snow Leopard 10.6.8
    All devices are sharing the SAME iTunes password for apps, music, etc.
    Best, Mr. Luigi

    For those who might be experiencing this same problem, I'll pass on the things I try and whether it meets with any success or not.
    Here is my latest idea:
    As I mentioned earlier, our family of 3 shares 1 itunes account for apps, music...This way, one song, one app, whatever purchased by one of us can be used on the other's iDevices.  Up until recently we had 8 devices sharing this one account:
    3 MacBook Pros
    3 iPhone 4S's
    1 iPad Original + 3g
    1 iPad 2 +3g
    Then we were given 3 iPod Touch 4th generation devices.  I set them up and things seemed ok. Seemed...
    Then I noticed in the iCloud "Account Info" for this 1 account the 1 iPad Original + 3g was not listed as included with this Apple account.  Hm...
    In iTunes, I had 'Automatically Sync New Apps" turned ON for the iPad Original + 3g.  However, I noticed in the actual iPad Original + 3g that when I went to Settings --> Store,  Automatic Downloads for Music, Apps, and Books was set to OFF.  So, I naturally turned those to ON to coordinate with the "Automatically Sync New Apps" setting for this device in iTunes.  Next time I turned on that iPad a warning pop-up appeared that said only TEN devices could be associated with 1 iTunes account for automatic downloads.  Hm...
    I thought that perhaps having all our iDevices (8 of them) set to "Automatically Sync New Apps" was confusing iTunes because that meant I was asking it to Sync New App to 11 total devices (including my 3 computers).
    So, I am going to watch and see if anything happens by taking our original iPad out of the "loop."  Maybe this sorta random having to enter my password is because iTunes can't "handle" having 11 devices asking for app syncing when Apple has told it to only allow 10 devices.  (BTW, I think that Apple needs to change this rule now that it has Computers, iPhones, iPod Touches, AND iPads competing for those precious 10 spots.  It's easy to use them up even for a small family of 3 like ours.)
    If this has confused you, welcome to the club.  There is another discussion focused on families and their use of the new iCloud service.  It's a gargantuan discussion, so I'm not the only one perplexed as to the best way to manage a house of Apple Products sharing an iTunes account.
    All I can hope is that I am now confused at a higher level, and about more appropriate things so that eventually I may figure this out. Bye.

  • How can I stop my iphone asking for my icloud password every time I turn it on?

    I really don't want to have to put in both by iphone pin and my icloud password everytime I do the smallest thing on my iphone.

    It looks like you're trying to play a track bought from the iTunes store (or does it happen with other songs too?). Make sure you are logged in with the account the track was bought with.

  • Why does my iPad ask for sign in info constantly?

    I Am asked to sign in to Apple and Game Center constantly. very annoying. Anyone know why?

    After reading Jeff's reference, I checked my E-Mail.  On the day I downloaded the "free" App, I also received a message that included:
    "Your Apple ID was just used to purchase Google Earth from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.
    If you made this purchase, you can disregard this email. This email was sent as a safeguard designed to protect you against unauthorized purchases."
    However, the E-Mail did not mention what the charge was.  I'll have to wait for my next credit card statement to be sure there was no charge!

  • Why does comcast keep asking for my email password?

    This has happened intermittently over a few years. It goes on for days and finally stops, but it is annoying and I don't have time to deal with it. Comcast says it is Apple's fault. What can I do about it?
    This did not start with this computer or with Mountain Lion. It has been going on for years.

    It's possible the connection (handshake) between Mail and Comcast is timing out before the connection is made and you get the error asking password. 
    In Mail Preferences > General
    Check for New Messages > Set for every 15 minutes and see if this helps.
    Run Keychain First Aid
    Open Keychain Access, located in Applications/Utilities
    Choose Keychain Access > Keychain First Aid.
    Enter your user name and password.
    Select Repair and click Start.
    If any problems are found run again to verify all repaired.
    In Mail, under Window in the Menu bar, select Connection Doctor. If you see a red light for your Comcast account, you need to make sure your password is entered on the main window for the account (receiving) and in SMTP under the advanced tab. You can click on Show Details to get more info on why you are not connecting.

  • Why does iBooks keep asking for apple ID password?

    For a few days whenever I start up iBooks on my iPad, it asks me to log in with my Apple ID. I can say 'cancel' and going on reading without problems; I can also give my Apple ID password and everything will behave the same way (I see no difference).
    I have seen the discussion thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20897580#20897580 and I tried to follow what was described there, but it did not worl. I get no warning on 'purchases not yet downloaded'

    That thread helped me. I am using the latest (11.1.1) version of iTunes.
    Went to Store > View Account
    Right at the top of the page, and I mean the top (right around the Account Information title) was a message proclaiming downloads pending download. I clicked it and then the notification went away and so did the message on my iPad.
    Bit long winded there but I'm just happy to have that popup gone! Best of luck!

  • Why does ipad keep asking for icloud every second?

    why does ipad keep asking for icloud every second?

    Hey there mcsafranek,
    It sounds like you are getting prompted for your iCloud password very frequently. I would sign out of your iCloud account in Settings first:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    From: iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
              http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Then close all the running apps on the device:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    When you have done that and restart the phone, sign back into iCloud, and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists could you relay what exactly the message says when it pops up?
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Why does my iPad keep asking for my iCloud password?

    My iPad gas started asking for my iCloud password all the time since downloading 12 days of Christmas app which included 2 free downloads of  a song And a video these didn't download correctly and are not stuck in limbo can't get them to finish downloading or delete them and  i am frustrated about having to constantly enter my iCloud password I have entered it 15 times while typing this 16 now!!! Help

    Some people just solved the problem by deleting the account from the device for a moment "Settings > iCloud > Delete Account" and then added it back again.

  • Why does it keep asking for my password ?

    Why does it keep asking for my password when i open the APP STORE ? Theres no updates and i aint downloading anything. Any help ? Thanks.

    It shouldn't really ask you anything. One way to possibly forestall this from happening again would be to register and enter your own ID and password. The system won't ask you for anything else, since it has all the user info it needs.
    When is it asking you questions? When the App Store opens? When you click on hyperlinks to documents?

  • How to stop Calendar app from asking for my icloud password every 5 minutes

    On Mac OS X 10.9.5
    Recently the Calendar app pops up a window every few minutes asking for my iCloud password. I am sure I am entering the correct password, and selecting Remember password in my keychain - but it doesn't help. I have tried switching off Calendars in my iCloud settings, waiting then switching it on again. I have restarted my computer (several times). Nothing seems to help. The problem started since setting up 2-step authentication for my iCloud account. Any help much appreciated - It is really annoying!

    I found this on the Flexibit website.
    Why does Fantastical ask for my iCloud password after enabling two-factor authentication for iCloud?
    Apple recently made a change and now requires app-specific passwords when using two-factor authentication with iCloud. Please read this on how to set it up: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6186.
    If you've set up an app-specific password and Fantastical is still not accepting the new password, make sure that you aren't accidentally pasting in a return with the password. iCloud's website will include a return at the end of the password if you copy and paste the password directly from the iCloud website, which will cause the app-specific password to be rejected.

  • Tried to restore from backup but it's asking for my iCloud password for an email address that doesn't exist anymore. What do I do?

    I had my phone replaced today and have tried to restore from the backup I made this morning. It didn't restore properly so I wanted to try again but I can't as it asks for my iCloud password for a non-existant email account. I changed my iCloud email about 6 months ago but my phone still thinks that is the correct email and I can't change it, can't reset my phone, can't do anything. What do I do?

    The fact that the email address doesn't exist anymore doesn't matter. As far as the Apple ID is concerned, the email address is just a user name. As long as you know the password you used, it should be fine.
    If you don't remember the password, start here:

    my iPad asks for my iCloud password but I can not. that I can do? the problem is that I try to access it by putting my email but I do not remember which was which I put.

    If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, 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 iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished 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.
