Hi just wanted to know if anyone else was experiencing this problem. I random get requests to input my apple ID from my iPad 2 16GB WIFI and iPhone 4s 16GB. I also notice that my contacts sync from iCloud on my iPhone would randomly disappear and settings in iCloud settings would be be switched off and then have to switch them back on.

That happened to me once after I changed my Apple (email address) ID. It took me a long time to discover I had not entered the new ID for FaceTime. So check everything in settings and be sure your ID is entered for iCloud, Messages, FaceTime and Game Center.

This is what has been happening to my wife's 4s and my daughters 4s. I have reset phones and even reset in DFU mode. But still the same problem. Very flustering hoping someone can help with this issue. I have tried the above methods but still same thing.

In beginning to think this due to the phone running out of memory after playing games. For example I usually get this after playing Clash of clans.

With Apple preparing its systems to support Yosemite, iOS 8, iCloud Drive, and improving overall security of its services, it is possible that the preparation is the cause of the problems and not necessarily your devices.

Does this explain why I have to input my password every-time I go into iBooks, even with the app open on my 5s with 7.1.1?
