Multiple requests for password for Apple ID

I got a notification yesterday that someone was trying to log into my Apple ID from another location so I changed my password. This morning my iPhone told me to log in again and then told me to change the password again. Now this afternoon my Apple Watch is telling me to enter the password again even though I did already when I change the password this morning. Does anyone have any insights as to what might be going on and how to resolve this? I’m all for security but I don’t want to keep logging in and changing passwords on four devices every day.

Thanks in advance!

In regard to the first of your issues, Eric Root posted the following to another individual.


"If this is an e-mail you received, or a popup on the screen, about the time you were actually logging in, there is probably nothing to worry about. The location in the e-mail is where your ISP reported it. If their servers are in a location distant from you, there will be a large error. Based on other posts I have read, the distant error can be very large."

At some point, I think he followed up with (possibly in reply to someone else):


"You can also check your device list to see if there is a device signed in that you don't recognize. You can remove the device using the steps in the article below.


You have changed your password which covers what I think he said next.


"As a precaution, change your password.

Maybe you will want to check out the device list as he mentioned above and to use the above link. Kappy also suggested checking out this link.


Still, there seems to be more going on with your devices. I have no suggestions. Maybe Eric will come along. Eric, if I don't recall things exactly or you think what I think you said doesn't apply here, then you have my apologies.
