4 mins read

Your device can request the Apple ID password when you restore the device or download something new. It is uncommon for the device to keep asking for the Apple ID password over and over again. The problem can occur when an app download or update was interrupted for some reason, preventing the iPhone from downloading the latest version of the app.

If you are experiencing this issue, you are in the right place. We will provide you with a list of solutions that can help you eliminate this problem once and for all.

Potential Solutions to Fix iPhone Keeps Asking for Apple ID

The following are some of the most effective solutions to this problem we’ve found;

1 Check iCloud/iMessage/FaceTime

Begin by checking that your iCloud account is configured correctly. If it is, turn off iCloud by deleting your account and then turn it back on. 

You can also go to Settings > iCloud and then tap on the Account field. Here, erase and retype the password for the Apple ID. Click “Done” and see if this fixes the problem.

If you are still having the same problem, check both FaceTime and iMessages in settings. These services both use the Apple ID. Try turning both of them off and then on again. Also, retype the password for both FaceTime and iMessages.

5 Restore iPhone Without Data Loss

Since this problem is mostly prominent when a restore is interrupted, you can bypass the whole problem by restoring your device using an alternative to iCloud and iTunes that guarantees no data loss. Restoring your device via iTunes or iCloud might be effective but all the data on your device will be erased during the process. You are also unable to select the data to restore when using iTunes or iCloud.

But there is an alternative that allows you to restore the device quickly and easily, without data loss. This is iMyFone Fixppo, a backup and restore tool that is designed to make these processes easier and faster. Some of iTransor’s features include the following;
