So I had to reinstall one of my apps and I am currently trying to restore my purchases. However when prompted to input my Apple details I am told that my password is incorrect.
I know 100% that the password I am entering is correct as it works fine when I log into iTunes and such manually yet this one app will not accept it.
I have tried resetting my password and such but nothing is working.
Can someone help me out here?
iPhone 4
Could it possibly have been installed under a different Apple ID?
Nope. I definitely installed it under the ID that I am using now.
There is no other reason that I can think of as to why it won't accept your password. Your only option is to delete the app and re-download it.
Already tried that and still nothing sadly.
Which app is it? Does it come with its own password specific to the app?
This is happening to me too! I'm trying to make a purchase and it keeps telling me the password is invalid even though I just signed in with the same password with my laptop. So I'm off to contact Apple Support because I'm assuming that it's something that is going wrong on their end.
This is one of the capabilities provided by the KeyRaider malware but KeyRaider affects only jailbroken iPhones. Is yours jailbroken?
Since I'm not even truly sure what that is, I'm going to say that's a "no" for me, ha ha! The only thing I have done differently since the last sign on phone was a re-boot. I got some water on the phone & the sound went out so I did the whole re-boot/re-start and sound came back with what seemed no other problems.
It's not jailbroken no.

Then KeyRaider won't impact you.
What ended up working for me, was to re-boot the phone again. For some reason I don't believe the last re-boot completely "took". Since you have changed your password already, I would try and sign-in using your new ID on another device. Then try your new apple password on your phone. Unless you have tried that already too? Then we have different problems and I hope you can get yours figured out too.
Password Invalid?
