Why does my iPhone keep prompting me for my iTunes password? ...

Starting a few days ago, iPhone 4S. Every so often, it seems randomly, when I'm using the phone I get prompted for my iTunes password. I enter it without error, get no error message.
But then nothing else appears to happen, until I'm prompted for it again a couple hours later.
My first thought was that I had a stalled download on the phone? But I don't see one.
Any guess as to what's going on?
Starting a couple nights ago, my daughter was downloading a bunch of purchased songs and one of them is apparently corrupted and stuck in never-never land. Keeps trying to download to our iTunes PC with no luck. Coincidence?
Thanks very much,
Chris

It's all coming from Facebook.
Either a notification is turned on or somehow these "events" have been synced to the calendar.
The "how to fix" would depend on the notification.  If it's coming from the Facebook app, again, fix the notifications in the settings for your facebook account.  Since you're also getting emails, I believe this is where the notifications are coming from.
If they are coming from the calendar app, then either change the notifications for each event or delete the events.

  • Why does my iPhone keep waking up for no reason?

    I have an iPhone 5S 64GB running iOS 8.1.2. For some unknown reason to me, while my phone is locked, the lock screen will randomly light up, like it does when I get a notification. The problem is there's no notification. It makes no noise and nothing new is on the lock screen. I've tried unlocking it when it does this to see if for some reason a notification has come in that can't display on the lock screen, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I'm currently updating to iOS 8.1.3, but based on the details of the software update I don't think it will make a difference. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem? What worked for you to fix it? It's really weird and starting to creep me out that my phone is doing this, it's like someone has remotely accessed my phone! Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    My iPhone has similar problem. It may something related to Wi-Fi. When I connect my iPhone to the Wi-Fi in my company, it reboots constantly, but it works normally when I'm at home. I have no other choice but turn-off the Wi-Fi on my iPhone when I' m in company.
    You can try some basic troubleshooting:
    1. Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    2. Try reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
    3. Restore it to factory settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings

    why does my iphone keep turning off when i put my pass code in

    Hi ManiPictures,
    If your iPhone shuts down unexpectedly during use, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
    As your iPhone's operating system is already up to date with iOS 8.1.1, follow the last instruction - 
    If you still see this issue after updating, contact Apple Support.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • HT5868 why does my iphone KEEP asking if I trust this computer? I thought it was a onetime thing per computer?

    Why does my iPhone KEEP asking if I trust this computer? I thought it was a onetime thing per computer? I plug my iPhone 4s into the computer and every time I tell it to trust this computer, but a hour later if I plug in again, I have to say trust again... bug? Setting issue? Help?

    http://helpios7.com/trust-this-computer-pop-up-fix/
    This helped me. Fix #1 is something Apple doesn't ever suggest to you.
    My specific problem was somehow my Apple Mobile Device USB Driver got turned off and moved and maybe even uninstalled, but after hours of struggling, this site helped tremendously.
    Furthermore, I could connect my iPhone to my computer but not into iTunes. It would only let me go to access pictures on my iPhone and that's all.
    Best of luck to anyone trying to figure out their problem.

  • Iphone keeps asking me for my AppleID password

    My iPhone keeps asking me for my AppleID password. 
    This usually happens after I wake the phone and/or start any app.  The problem is intermittent (and too consistant that it has become very annoying!)
    This started happening about 1.5 weeks ago.
    I called into Apple support and they don't have any idea of how to fix it other than me backing up my phone and performing a brand new restore.  I haven't done that yet as it seems to be a brute force approach (and lengthy timewise at that). 
    From what I can remember, I purchased a song from my iPhone using the iTunes store.  Ever since then, it has started asking me for my password for my AppleID.  If I enter the password and click OK, everything is fine, but after a few moments, it will ask me for my password again.  Also, if I hit Cancel, everything is fine, and again, it will ask me for my AppleID password. 
    I have the lastest build/version of iOS 5.0.1 installed.  The password entered IS correct.  I am able to purchase music/movies/tv shows from my AppleTV with the same AppleID and password.  I have verified on my iPhone under settings, Itunes that my AppleID is correct as well.
    Anybody else getting this and/or have a solution?

    Could be a few things...Some things to check:
    -Do you have pending downloads in the itunes store? Go to ITunes Store > More > Downloads
    -Are you signed into the correct Apple ID in the store? Go to Settings > Store and check the Apple ID. It may be a good idea to just sign out (by tapping on the apple ID and choosing sign out) and sign back in even if you are.
    -Other things that use your Apple ID that you might check: App Store, Facetime, iMessage, iCould, Game Center

  • Why does my iphone keep dropping calls

    Why does my iphone4 keep dropping calls??? It has been doing it for over a week. Does anyone have an answer.... AT&T says they are not having any problems and I have done everything but restore my phone.

    Unfortunately, this has plagued the AT&T iPhone since the original model came out. It's most likely a dead zone causing the issue (I have the sameissue from time to time). You can also get a Micro Cell from AT&T, it's basically just an access point that allows you to pick up a cellular signal at home or work (where ever you set it up).
    To eliminate any hardware issues, make sure you're on the latest build of the OS (4.3.3 for the AT&T iPhone 4) - I noticed you're still on 4.3.2. If you don't have a case, I suggest the Apple bumper or any case that covers the metal bezel on your phone, that will help as well.
    Also, you can "reboot" your phone. To do this, hold down the metal sleep button on the upper-right corner of your phone until the "slide to power off" slider is displayed, then power off the phone. Wait a few minutes and turn it back on.
    Hope this helps!
