Why iMessage is ask old Apple ID password

I have an iPhone 6 and just made the last update, IOS 9.3.3. Since that time, I had trouble with iMessage. I tried to send some pictures to someone a bit there and he said that he would not send without me turning on iMessage. He was already on, but I went to confirm anyway. It's on. I turned it and then turn on again, and then I got a pop box that said I had to update my password Apple ID. But it was my old Apple ID that I have not used in more than a year. Suggestions?

Follow the four steps under "turn and restart iMessage and FaceTime" here:

  • Cannot transfer applications because the old Apple ID password no longer works

    Hi, I changed my Apple ID and now I'm trying to transfer apps purchased on my Apple ID from previous backup of my new phone, the new phone guard prompting me to connect to my Apple ID previous to allow this. I thought it would be no sweat: fist right in my old Apple ID password right? Evil. It does not work. Nor does my new password Apple ID. So I'm stuck with a new phone with a whole bunch of applications that say "Waiting" on them. Can someone tell me how to resolve this issue? See you soon

    Apps cannot be transferred they are related to the identifier apple running during the download.

    If you have an apple ID different you must download & pay.

  • Why new 6s my wife keep asking the apple id password once we've entered the password?  I know it's asking to update the downloaded applications under my id.

    My wife and I just upgraded to the 6s.  His phone will not update the downloaded applications under my apple ID and continues to request the password for my apple ID.  We are entering the correct password, but he told us that he failed.  I restarted and disconnected icloud on his phone.  We never had this problem before.  Why her phone does not accept the password of my apple ID.  And Yes, I've confirmed that the password is correct... I had to use it to post this question.

    Thanks for any help.

    Promulgated by this Apple ID on his phone? Have you checked the settings > iTunes and App Store and make sure that the ID is good in there?

  • Continual Promp for old Apple ID password

    (this is not a question specific to the iPhone - this is my Apple ID - but Apple did not see fit to create a community of Apple ID, apparently, even if it's a common theme across all Apple products)

    So... is my story, I'm using my iPhone 6 + and iPad on iOS 10 Air.

    I wanted to get as far as possible (for obvious reasons) Yahoo! and so changed the email address associated with my Apple ID to another.  (Did this a few weeks back with no problem).

    Now, for some reason, my iPhone guard invites me "Apple ID verification - enter the password for [email protected]"in the settings."  (In other words invites me on my old Yahoo! email account.)

    I went and checked my account is listed as my new e-mail address, and the password is great.

    No idea why this older prompting an e-mail address is no longer associated with my Apple ID?

    Thank you!

    At what time, or the place where you get this fast?

    This looks like an application that tries to get the update. Go to the updates page and see what applications are asking or provide an update.

  • iCloud asking closed Apple ID password

    My iPhone with IOS 10.0.2 5s constantly requires the password of my iCloud account that no longer exists. When I enter the password comes with "account does not exist" or "account is blocked for security reasons" and asked to verify the account that leads to the password reset and obtaining the same response once the password is reset. I can't erase the iPhone because you need to connect to do, and I tried to temporarily replace your method Apple ID. Also signing off iCloud is not an option because it requires the password to log. Can I do or what I should contact Apple further away?

    Thank you.

  • Why am I being asked to update my apple ID password?

    So lets get started...

    On my iPhone 6 and 2 Air iPad I have experienced this problem and happens when I turn the two devices off during the night and the following morning. I get two guests when I go into the menu settings (1). Audit of the Apple - ID enter the password to john.deere @... in a frame, with the options of 'Not now' or 'settings '. -"Not now" just takes you to the home screen - when I click on 'settings' it prompts saying "the apple for [email protected] update ID '.

    I can't update my apple ID password, so I'm curious as to why this product. I get my regular apple ID password and a few seconds pass and puts me right back in the regular setting menu. In my view, there is no need to update my apple ID and I wondered what that the * happens! (both devices doing this) except my Macbook. Did some research a few and even called apple.

    My specs:

    MacBook Air (2015) El captain

    IPhone IOS 6 (REG) 9.1

    Air iPad 2 iOS 9.1

    Until now this what I did with no results:

    Called Apple - they said that it is / can be a bug with the software... suggested a complete restoration of the devices - did this.

    Signed in and out iCloud on devices, restart and difficult to start - no luck.

    Connected to iTunes, manage devices, checked to see if something was out of wack - nothing seemed obvious.

    Checked side macbook things with security or anything like that in this sense, until here nothing.

    IF SOMEONE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM (S) PLEASE DROP A LINE OR A SUGGESTION.

    Thank you

    You probably have a weak password, and Apple is asking you to change it. The other option is not to put off power at night.

  • I changed my Apple ID and now my iMessages does not work. It still uses the old Apple ID and I can't use the old password for it because it is not active. Is it possible to change it?

    Is it possible to change the Apple ID user name on iMessage for the iMessage account?

    Hello

    Use the logout button.

    This will still show the old Apple ID, but can be "crushed" and has added a new.

    You can go a step further by going to ~/Library/Preferences and delete the com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist file.

    This will remove the Apple ID used in iMessages and all related issues iPhone and other emails added to the whole upward.

  • Apple ID ask again to reset password?

    Hey guys,.

    I get a notification to change my apple ID password and when I do, it works for ~ 1 day, then the next day, he just asks me to reset my password even once!

    He is an annoying problem because whenever I need to reset my password I receive an email from reset, because I forgot security question responses (I'm only human).

    The notice does not specify a reason for me to reset the account, and email just says that I asked for a password reset.

    Does anyone have AN idea on why it keeps happening to me? Am I hacked?

    I think this information might be relevant, I have an old iPhone with the key to iCloud on it, but I do not use it, he's just sitting there with no battery. My only apple device I use daily is this mac. No other device have this ID apple connected with them (iCloud ID).

    Where precisely these e-mails come?  Course, you know at once if he is sent to Apple?

  • The enamel of my apple account has not changed, although I did and every day I'm asked to verify my password since then. It's extremely annoying. What should I do?

    I am writing from Peru. in January, I got an email from Apple advising me to change my email associated with my Apple ID and password. I did it. But since the tthen all the days I turn on my IPhone or IPad I'm asked to verify my password of my Apple which seems to be always related to old email ID! It's really boring to do so every day. I turned on my Apple TV, and he asked the iTunes Sore for former Apple ID password once again. I don't really know what to do. What, then, is the pint to change your email address linked to the ID and the password if it does not recognize the new password.

    Are you sure that the email you received in January was Apple, not a phishing attempt to try to get your account and payment details?

    If it was authentic, then after changing you connected everywhere wherever you use it and on the account: what to do when you have changed your Apple ID email address or password - Apple support ?

    There are several places an identifier Apple is used on an iPhone.

    • If it's the Apple of a former owner of the phone ID, and it is in settings/iCloud grace to find my iPhone activated, ONLY the person who set up the Apple ID can remove (see: find my iPhone Activation Lock: a mechanism of extraction of the previous owner)
    • If it's the Apple ID in Settings/iTunes & App Store just log out, then log back with the correct ID of Apple.
    • Do the same for iMessage and Facetime, if that is where the Apple ID is used.
    • If he is asked during the updating of the apps means that applications have been purchased or downloaded using this code from Apple. To resolve this issue, you must remove the application, and then buy with your Apple ID.
