Constantly invited to enter Apple ID/iCould password. How will I know if I have a virus?

MacBook Air last operating system running. I'm constantly and repeatedly asked to enter my Apple ID/iCloud password.  My intuition says that I have a virus.  How can I clean my disk?

The connection iCloud on your disk data is maybe corrupted. When I got essentially the same question, Apple gave me these steps.

To reset the iCloud on your Mac:

These are all in your user account, not the root folder of the library.

Close all running applications. Put the following in the Trash:

(1) in the folder ~/Library /, put the Caches folder to the trash.

(2) in the ~/Library/Application Support / folder, put iCloud folder to the trash.

(3) in the ~/Library/Preferences folder /, put the MobileMeAccounts.plist file in the trash.

Restart your Mac. Who must kill the popup.

    You must go to the email address provider and change his password. They will probably have a Web page where you can do. To change the password or close the account, you will need to know the old (current) password, or demonstrate in some way, you are its rightful owner.

  • How will I know if an email from 'Apple' on malware is legitimate?

    I received an e-mail might alert, apple, on malware that requires immediate attention.  I need to know how to determine if it is legitimate. In my safari, I went on the link they posted in the warning and got this announcement of: http://icloud-webserver-3.online/index-2.html

    Your computer is infected with adware or malware, which allows you to see this popup.

    This can happen because of the obsolete virus protections.

    To fix, please call Apple Support to 1-800-982-1346 immediately. Please ensure that you do not restart your computer to avoid any data loss.

    Possibility of data & identity theft, if not fixed immediately.

    In fact, I called the number, don't do not still think that it was a 'bad' site...? How can I check the legitimacy of this warning?

    It's easy. It is NOT legitimate. It's a scam, and it came not from Apple.

  • How will I know when I bought an apple product

    Where should I look to see my history of purchase Apple product?

    Did you look at the link at the top of this page? Apple recommends that you keep your original purchase receipts for future reference. I think, however, that if you go to an Apple store and they did a quick glance toward the top of your serial number that they could provide you with history & documentation.

  • How will I know my administrator password?

    Hello, my husband needs to install some software manufacturer, Sat - Nav and it asks the administrator password.  I do not remember what it is and have tried all the other more obvious.  How can I retrieve or reset my Admin password please?

    When you have loaded Windows for the first time you have been prompted for the name of an account and a password. This account was created as an administrator account. This is the account that you now use.

    I also suggest that you plan ahead a little by creating, testing and documenting an alternative admin account, even though you have a spare House key. This will save you a lot of trouble. Relying on your memory is clearly insufficient.

    What anti-virus program do you want to install? Are you aware that
    Windows 8 already comes with an anti-virus (Windows Defender) program
    and it is a much better choice than many of those for sale (such as
    Norton and McAfee, two popular choices, but the worst, in my
    notice).

    And you should never have two installed anti-virus programs.

  • My Apple TV will not accept my Apple ID and password?

    My Apple TV is on auto update and when I try to connect with my Apple ID and password, it will not accept and asks me to change my password. I've done several times, but everything I do will not accept the Apple TV? I have reset the Apple TV twice, through all the steps, but always the same result does not accept. I tried to restore but unable to restore factory?

    I had been using Apple TV with success until one day because of bad conditions weather wi - Fi was low, but I wasn't sure, so I unplugged the Apple TV. However, the next day wi - Fi was beautiful, so I plugged in the Apple TV and the startup insiders, and since, I can't make it work?

    What version of AppleTV, what software?

    Looks like you don't have an internet connection. Which must precede entering your Apple ID

    Make sure that your network connection is set to automatic for the IP address and DNS. A bad DNS address in particular could prevent internet access.

    I don't know what you've done on your device. First of all, when you fed after his stop, he should come back exactly as it was. You wouldn't have to 'launch startup. At worst, you may need to review the network settings and select the WiFi network again.

    Second, you have tried to reset to factory settings, so you will need to enter again all the configuration, but it does not work?

    Third, you tried to restore. Do you mean the procedure of restoration of your Apple TV via iTunes - Apple Support ? How restore did not work?

    Finally, you say that ATV is asking you to change your password. I don't think you can change the password of the ATV. Just to be sure of what's going on, you must sign in with your Apple ID on another device: computer, iPhone. If it's normal, you should be able to use the same password on the ATV.

    Just to check, your ATV is set in the same region as your physical location?
