Q: iOS 7 keep turned off my iCloud settings and asking my password

Hi,

 

I upgrade to iOS 7 the day before yesterday. Everything's fine until yesterday's morning. When I received a text message, I found it's shown under the tel number, rather than names from my contact list. Then I found all my setting in iCloud were turned off. I turned them on, and everything's fine after that. But today, it turned off all my settings again and stars to keep asking me sign-in my iCloud account. I checked my iCloud account settings, it seems correct for me. I can correctly get all the informations from iCloud. But it just keep asking my passwords...

 

Any ideas about this?

 

Thanks very much in advance,

 

s.c

iPhone 4S, iOS 7

    Resetting Networks most definately doesn't fix the problem as it's caused by a bug in iOS 7, which manifests itself by using memory intensive apps that use certain features.  I'm also inclined to believe a memory leak is involved, which likely explains the random Springboard crashes that occur on all iOS 7 devices.

     

    The only "fix" (other than turning off iCloud) is to stop using apps that trigger the problem and reboot at least once a week.   If you want to continue using problematic apps, daily reboots are needed.

    I have not had this problem in over 2 months now.

     

    How I have resolved it:

    every time you finish using an app manually close it (double tap the home button and swipe the app away).  Thus you have no apps running in the background using up RAM.  I use CoC daily and I used to lose all icloud info contacts etc, but that was when I would have several apps on in the background like mail, facebook, twitter etc.  If CoC is the only app running, or one of only a few, I don't have the issue.

     

    Recap, I used to have this issue all the time, but haven't had it in the last two months.  Yes I have to manually close every app after I use it, but this becomes second nature very quickly.  Is it a true "fix"? probably not, but it's better than losing all my icloud backups and having find my iphone turn off randomly

    Even thou it didnt fix you but may fix others thou.

     

    I've been bugs free for the last couple months now. Still in .4.

     

    May clear the rest of my cookies and start new but havent done it yet but I use my device like I have always done in previos IOS.

     

    Not much of my Safari crashing either.

     

     

    Only thing I can think of is besides what I did included (reseting networks), but is to close all apps, delete iCoud account & keep on Device, Hard Reset, Re-add iCloud account and then normal use, the last several months without checking it, checkit now and still enabled, might add my security like i did first entering IOS 7 w/o this issue was keep it locked on under Restrictions.

     

    In the past between .3 & .4 for like a month, it would turn off even thou Restrictions were not to change it but it did, but now, no more.

     

    IDK what else to say.

     

    Besides all I can say is list the apps I have on my device, but deleted at least 70apps or so but no relation to why icloud was doing of what it was doing.

     

    Maybe whatevr app is cuassing it if it is a certain app, ya guys can compare what app you may need to watch from the apps I have with no bugs.

     

     

     

    Heck, its just an idea thou, but I'm Olympicing Viggle Live points at the moment thou & list them here later, I'll get the extra 70 apps I did have on my device by copying my save games from using a 3rd party to if I ever go back to it, i can copy the save data and continue of where I was at.

     

     

    Least you people can compare the apps you have from what i have that im running is perfect.

    I haven't had this problem in over 3 months.

     

    What did I do?... Stopped playing clash of clans on my Iphone 4S. That is the one and only thing I did. I don't close apps in the background, I dont reboot my phone...none of that jazz. CoC seemed to be the one and only trigger of this bug for me.

     

    Bought an Ipad mini 2 and I now play on there.

     

    So yea, memory intensive applications are definately the cause for this bug.

     

    For now I will be unsubbing from this issue since there is no fix anyway. Hope ios 7.1 fixes it.

    I completely logged off my Game Center account and I've been doing fine for a couple months since, still playing CoC everyday and got no password popups, no more iCloud stuff got turned off.

    For Everyone.......

     

     

     

    Some apps maybe worded differently depending on what I see on my device and my external/portable hard drive since the begining of iOS 7. Last Modified Dec 29, 2013

     

     

    The Apps I went through while having iOS 7.

    That is all I had on my iPod during the start of iOS 7 up to the 29.

    And no, not all at the same time.

     

    No, didn’t spend much on apps either since being at the time they were either free or discounts.

     

    Total saves of free/discount apps: EST. $310.00

     

    And some free ones from my friend.

     

     

    Apple User: Start of Xmas 2008 or Xmas 2009

     

    Had this problem between 2 weeks after 7.0.3 to 1-2 weeks in 7.0.4.

     

    Status: No Longer Having iCloud Turn Off Problems - October-Novemeber

    Match what you have on your device and compare what I have.

    Plz, no Hate, things can happen that everybody would just go and try them and keep for a few months and decide later what are the true important ones that you use & keep some apps that you may get later or try something different that you haven’t tapped in a long while.

     

    Some Apps I will still keep bc not other than my brothers even thou they have devices too but we have cousins that we meet once in a while that I let them use my device to play whatever I have to offer.

    Hello everyone. My issues with iCloud settings turning off appear to have stopped now; however I found that if I change someone's ringtone, a while later it goes back to the default ring / text tone. Glad that the original issues stopped though!

    I have the exact same issue. I have it happen to me when I play clash of clans. I notified developers through the app feedback. If that is ever read... (ugh...)

     

    Apple really needs to get this straightened out as it is a serious issue when it turns off find my iphone!!!

    That means your contacts got wiped locally and had to be re-downloaded from iCloud.  That's kind of a symptom as basically iCloud turns off and then back on again.

    I'm going insane over here. Not only is Find My iPhone disabled randomly, but I regularly loose all my contacts. I not able to indentify the trigger or solve the problem. Last time I switched iCloud back on and the contact were not coming back, got me scared but luckily the contacts were still accessible on my laptop. Only after deleting my iCloud account from my phone the contacts came back.

     

    I'm on the edge of parting with iCloud in total and only use Find My iPhone. Contacted Apple by phone but they only 'made a note' of the problem what in my opinion is a serious security bug.

    It's a serious bug for sure however it doesn't count as a security bug.

    I understand your frustration when I had the bug it I was very close to going insane and smashing my iPhone. Hang in there untill iOS 7.1 it should arrive this month, if that doesn't fix the issue, I suggest you to sell your Apple device and/or upgrade. I really hate to admit this but Apple isn't the same company we once knew. I hope they can infact get everything together again.

    @ John: iOS 7.0.6

    @ Chris: Thank you for the mental support :-) The prospect of 7.1 is indeed the thing I kling on to. Heard some good stuff. I will also be changing provider next month since my 3G reception is not optimal and maybe contributing to stability. This combined with a new setup and not restoring any (iCloud) backup will hopefully solve my problem.

    Hello, as many by now already know, iOS 7.1 is out and features a whole bunch of welcoming bug fixes and features. Give it a try and let me know if it solves your issues.

    I just had Find My iPad turn itself off and Facebook get logged out under iOS 7.1, so the problem is not fixed in 7.1 and likely never will be. Apple's fix is for you to buy a new iPhone or iPad.
