Repeated Apple ID Log-in requests

Every time I awake my iMac running the latest software I am requested to Log-in with my Apple ID. Is there a solution for this change?

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

Hey there Harri Flex,


It sounds like you're having repeated requests to sign in using your Apple ID on the iMac. We'll be happy to assist.


Is this a prompt from iCloud or one of the macOS stores? If this is happening in one of the content stores can you try signing out and signing back in to test? Sign in with your Apple ID


Do you know if the issue continues in and out of safe mode? Keep us updated.


Start up your Mac in safe mode


Cheers!

Thanks for keeping us updated Harri Flex,


Did you check for any prompts or notifications in System Preferences > Apple ID? We know you mentioned the prompt disappears, but you may want to check and make sure you're signed in okay in System Preferences. Also, please make sure you test in and out of safe mode using the steps we provided. If the issue seems to continue you can reach out to Apple Support using the link below.
