iCloud regularly locks my Apple ID

iCloud regularly locks my Apple ID "This Apple ID has been locked for security reasons"

I access iCloud from different devices and computers (iOS, android, windows ...) using my ID and password.

If I mistype it ONCE, I can log in with the second try (if it is correct) but the next time I try to log into iCloud I get the message:


"This Apple ID has been locked for security reasons" and I'm told I have to reset my password.


How easily do YOU mistype a password on a cell phone???

Also, lately I "need" to use a PC instead of my Mac so I log into iCloud.com from a web browser. Every time I do so I get an email "warning" me that someone has connected to iCloud from a web browser. Even if I log in from the same machine and the same IP I get this email every time.

I'm all for security but this is a bit much.


I'm tired of having to constantly change my password!!! What can I do??


Thanks for any suggestions

MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
