Hi, just recently updated to 13.3 on my iphone 11 pro, now for some reason I am being prompted for a password for an apple ID i dont know - anyone else experiencing something similar. The phone is about a week old.
iPhone 11 Pro
Larrynz can you provide me with source or original acknowledgement?
Unfortunately this was in a verbal discussion with second tier support.
very annoying thing. sometimes it asks for pass like 20 times an hour.
When I posted on 2/1 - it was going ballistic asking all the time, for some reason, I have not had any issues with it for the last 10 days - not been asked once 😱. It is soooooo weird and random.
Still no joy unfortunately. I have followed up recently but have been advised that it is still being investigated by the apple engineers.
Looking for an answer to this problem to, its been ongoing for a while and just getting worse
Yes that’s the same thing that happens to me, it does it on and off multiple times a day for an hour or so each time! I’ve stopped wearing my watch now as it was driving me crazy!!
Cheers for the heads up, hopefully its sorted with this update!
Bad news
first thing after the update (both iPhone and watch) there is same request for the non-existing ID.
the update didn’t fix it
Did you update your watch as well? I've updated both phone and watch and all seems to be well. Mind you I will reserve that it has been fixed, as it was sooooooo random as to when it occurred.
I updated both the iOS and WatchOS when they were released, unfortunately the issue has re-surfaced this morning and I am stuck in the loop prompt. :(
Yeah i suspect it to be WatchOS issue.
Have it a few times a day
apple support which promised to follow it up is useless.
same issue here, started yesterday with the email address: theillox@gmail.com
Hopefully they're going to fix it, this is very annoying!!!
Not yet. I’m going on holidays at the end of the week so I’ll probably do that when I get back, but resetting the settings was bad enough, I swear my keyboard had to relearn the way I type/talk because autocorrect was terrible after I did that. But you’re right, that would be the last attempt before getting a whole new Apple ID and starting from scratch. Which I don’t really care if I have to pay for things again, but I don’t want to loose cloud data associated with each app, subscriptions and any apps like pages, numbers and keynote that I received with my Mac mini under my current Apple ID. Not to mention my Apple Music subscription, that will have to start all over again. And since Apple don’t allow transferring between Apple id’s, I’m screwed there.
