iCloud account keeps getting locked (almost daily)

I migrated my Mobile Me account to iCloud and it seems to work as expected, however it gets locked up and stops syncing almost every day. Multiple times, I have gone through and verified my settings on all my Apple devices that use my iCloud account:

- iMac

- Macbook Pro

- Mac Mini

- 3 Apple TV 2's

- Airport Extreme

- iPad 2

- iPhone 4

It's getting frustrating because it's a lot of work to go through and verify this, and to have to login to iforgot.icloud.com and unlock my account almost every day is gettign really irritating.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Rob...

I know you checked your serttings, but make sure Photo Stream is switched on (Macs and iOS devices) to use with the Apple TV.

As for your account, try resetting the password you are using for iCloud.

You can do that here > Apple - My Apple ID

Yeah, I know where the unlock webpage is because I have to use it every day.

Photo stream is enabled, tho I doubt that would have anything to do with my account getting locked all the time. It's almost as if something else is trying to login with the wrong password, but I've checked everything...
