    I have this appearing as well, but I did change my password to a newer one.

    Have tried signing out and back in - didn't work.

    Have changed settings (Edit->Preferences) so Store never requires a password but that didn't work. In fact I found that the settings just reverted back ???

    Now I have just signed out altogether. Not sure if Updates to Apps will happen but at least its stopped that annoying popup.

    Thanks for your reply capcomnz.

    I guess we just have to be patient and hope Apple will fix it

    Hi

    Not sure if you have managed to get rid of this popup/prompt but....

    there's another conversation going / ongoing with the same problem and one user has pointed me to this page:

    https://support.apple.com/en-nz/HT203206

     

    I found by starting iTunes in safe mode the popup didn't appear

     

    I tried removing and creating a new library file (Under User specific issues).

    That worked but had to import all my music/movies and apps back to iTunes....only to find the iPad would not automatically backup and sync when connect like it use to. Just sat there doing nothing.

     

    So i removed that library file and restored my library file to an older one from the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder:

    https://support.apple.com/en-nz/HT203225

     

    That worked fine. All music/movies and apps accounted for without having to import or re download and no popup (well at least not yet - fingers crossed)

     

    Two and a half hours of my life I wont get back

     

    Not sure if this will work for you or not.
