Re: apple id verification, enter your password in settings

[Shirley Baker]

I never get that anymore either. I have a passcode and they may ask me for that 
when updating my phone and ask for my touch ID when obtaining an app.

RE: apple id verification, enter your password in settings

[Sieghard Weitzel]

It is from Apple from time to time they will ask you to verify your 
credentials.
Do you have 2-factor authentication enabled? It seems I rarely get these any 
more since doing that, in fact, can't remember the last time I had to do this.

Re: apple id verification

[Deidre Muccio]

I get the same message. I think it has to do with iCloud which I have turned 
off. And yet it's on for mail and other sorts of things. I can go to the App 
Store and I'm logged in there so that's not the issue. It is annoying. I 
noticed that a few things like mail were switched on still in the iCloud 
setting and maybe all of those have to be turned off In order to make it stop 
doing this. It also seem to have coincided with its loading on yet another 
update which I have not installed.

I also have been getting this message.  I called tech support and the person 
who helped me thought that maybe I was having a problem with my Caps lock not 
working correctly.  We disabled the caps lock and I have to use the shift to 
capitalizwe my password now.  The problem seems to have gone away.

Re: apple id verification

[Dave]

i’ve been getting the same message from apple, on and off, for some time now, 
asking me to enter my password.

I don’t know why apple has started doing this, but I just enter my password 
strait away, and it goes away, and all is fine for a while.

I wouldn’t keep saying not now, as this may cause you problems, after so many 
times.

Re: apple id verification

[Arnold Schmidt]

I think it happens when, for whatever reason, your device looses contact with 
ICloud for a period of time, then reconnects. It only wants you to re-enter 
your password, so it can make sure the device that is connecting,  using your 
ICloud account really is you.

Re: apple id verification

[Marie]

I am not sure why this happens but if you do not sign in for a long period of 
time it will keep bugging you to enter the password. After my son passed away I 
began getting this but did not have the password. After almost a year of saying 
“not now”, the phone locked up and unless I can get a court order there is no 
possibility of unlocking it. So take the time to enter the password and then 
call Apple Accessibility to find out why it is happening.

HI all,
As of the last week my phone has been bugging me about needing an apple ID 
verification for, and then it gives my email address.  Is this necessary and 
why all of a sudden is this coming up?  I have just been hitting the not now 
button, but wondered if someone might know what is up with this?

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

[Wayne Merritt]

Hi. No, the 2 factor authentication is different from iCloud Keychain.
Keychain keeps passwords and log-in information secure in Safari,
while 2 factor authentication prevents someone else from unlocking or
getting into your iPhone, at least I think that's right.

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

[Regina Alvarado]

Where can I find this? Is it tied to the keychain I did not want to turn on but 
could find no way to avoid? What need are these 2 things, and if keychain is 
not necessary how do I take it off? The necessity to always put in my apple 
password is a pain every time I shut off my phone. I need explanation from 
tekies who are smarter about technology than me.

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

[Regina Alvarado]

What I have been getting is to verify my apple ID password in settings. When I 
tap on this I am put in settings. I can then put in my apple password. 
Everything goes well until the next time I turn off my phone. No code asked 
for. What is this code, and where can I get it in case they ask?

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

[Alex Hall]

It's only if you enabled two-factor authentication before the iOS9 update. You 
would have been given a recovery key that you were warned to not lose. If you 
enabled it more recently, no such key is provided, and verification happens 
differently. If you don't have the feature enabled at all, there's nothing to 
worry about, though I would encourage you to turn it on as soon as you can.

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

[Alex Hall]

I imagine so, yes, but I didn't ask that. If you want to be sure, go to 
Settings > iCloud and wait a minute. That's where you'll be asked if it isn't 
popping up every day. Again, if you aren't asked, I wouldn't worry.

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

[Alex Hall]

Update: it's fine. I just called Apple, and was told that the 9.1 update is 
prompting everyone with two factor authentication enabled to enter their key 
due to a certificate update. Oddly, when I entered my password just now, 
intending to give it the key, it didn't ask me for one. Go figure! Anyway, if 
you're prompted for that key, this is apparently normal.

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

[Daniel Miller]

Hi Alex,

Perhaps they’re starting the process of letting people sign up for 2-factor 
authentication, which is different from the current 2-step authentication they 
have in place now.
2-factor authentication does away with recovery keys, and changes the codes you 
need to enter when signing into a new device from 4 to 6 digits.

Hello,
And if you don't get it. Is that OK, too? I haven't even typed in a password

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

I've had that lately,  I only click cancel and carry on as normal so far.  
Feels like a fishing scam, but can't trace where from.

Hi all,
A couple days ago, my iPhone (running 9.1) asked for my Apple ID password. I 
thought nothing of it, until it then wanted my two 
factor authentication recovery key. My understanding is that this key is for 
recovery only, if I forget my password or am otherwise 
locked out of my account. My password was right, though. I got nervous about 
this, because it shouldn't prompt for that key, at 
least I don't think it should. Has anyone seen this, and/or does anyone know 
what might be going on? The prompt comes up once a day, 
but I haven't completed it yet. Things seem to be working just fine without 
doing so.
