why is it prompting for password so often?

My iphone is continuously asking me for my password. I've reset it and restarted it several times, but it keeps coming up... It's really annoying... Anybody have any idea how to stop it?

There is no way to stop the prompt. Those prompts are there for security reasons. If you do anything such as backup, download, restore, update, etc you will be prompted for the password. There is no specific reason behind it, you aren't entering the wrong password, it just wants to make sure you are who you are before doing anything with your device.
