I have to keep entering my password for icloud every time my computer starts up

For some reason, every time I start up my mac pro or my 13 inch macbook I'm repeatedly asked to enter my iCloud password and to create an app specific password for my iMessage and FaceTime.


For the iCloud password, I keep entering the correct password and the box keeps re-appearing. Eventually I hit cancel 5 times and it goes away. It appears I'm connected to the iCloud because I can see it's settings in system preferences.


As for the app specific password, I go through the whole rigamarole of creating a new password since I have the two step verification turned on, but it never asks me to enter the new password anywhere when I start up messages or FaceTime.


Any one have any ideas?


Both machines are running OSX Yosemite 10.10.3


Thanks.

Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)
