I can't use my Ipad because a pop up is asking me for my Apple ID password but when I write it and press Ok the pop up message keeps appearing! It doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad. I also have an Iphone and it is not doing this.

Worked! Thank you!

Was really quite afraid to enter my AID on the messages screen, because all other Apple apps worked fine withOUT any password required. So many bugs/viruses coming through FB and Twitter now, and my calendar has a million things in Chinese on there, too. I had turned off my iCloud sharing because of that.

Thing is, messages had been sharing across the old iPad mini and the iPhone for two years, and suddenly two days ago the ID Required white badge kept showing up.

Maybe because the software is older & cant be updated? Don't know, but I do t want to change my AID or PW because I will never forget this one.

Thanks again!

Force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.

You are most welcome 🙂

I've tried this multiple times and it doesn't seem to work - I have the same issue!

Once I restore my iPad with iTunes I get an error message saying: "The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the requested build".

I cannot do anything on my iPad.... 😟

Make sure you are using the latest software for iTunes.

Same problem for me.

1. Cannot connect to wifi as icloud password pop up keeps appearing.

2. tried deleting account. UNable to do so.

3. tried resetting password by logging into apple id through desktop as mentioned in one of the responses in another thread. Unfortunately the apple id to be reset is the same as being prompted by icloud and hence unable to reset the same.

Feel like breaking the **** ipad into bits. Stupid of apple to let such a bug in and not offer support !!

This isn't answering the question at all...

Dance around the question. Nice.

Go to settings and turn off FaceTime and iMessages and it will probably let you log in with your current Apple ID

I don't know if this helps, I hope this solution works for me.

reboot device (hold down power button + home key) u til it shuts down

power up device after few minites, type in access code at lock screen if required.

then got to settings, got to I icloud tab and press on Id.

My password was missing there, no dots to represent a registered password.

I typed in my iCloud password, checked my iTunes password was input too and all seems ok for now.

i Think the password prompt was popping up after I installed 8.4 update in July 2015, it seemed to have wiped account details, maybe it's a security

precaution.
