Every time I try to download an app I am continually asked to put in my Apple ID. Anyone know what is going on?

Based on my experience, that is normal. You are verifying that you are the one making the purchase. That prevents someone else from downloading apps without your permission.

App Store and iTunes Ok so, when I go to download something on the App Store, it asks me to type in my Apple ID password. I type that in and it starts pending for download, then a pop up shows up asking me to review my Apple iTunes account and to sign into it to download the app, so I once again type my Apple ID and all the sudden the pop up closes and it just brings me back to the App Store and the first pop up is still there and the app stops downloading, how do I stop this?
