You Must Update Your Apple Id to Continue Signing in

7 Ways to Solve "Update Apple ID Settings" Issue on iPhone

It appears that the "Update Apple ID Settings" message is quite common among Apple users. It's followed by a "Some account services will not be available until you sign in again" message. Usually, it's enough to enter your Apple ID password, and it disappears. But what to do if it keeps reappearing?

How to Fix

This annoying message can keep reappearing due to a couple of reasons. It can appear if you update your Apple ID information like credentials or the information is incomplete, change your iPhone's password to the same one as another device linked to the same Apple ID.

If you added another fingerprint for Touch ID or an appearance for Face ID or updated the software, the message asking to update Apple ID settings can also appear. Sometimes, the message might keep reappearing due to a bug or an error in your device's software.

To find the cause for this problem and fix it, follow all the steps below or check out the video.

Check if the Apple ID Information is Correct

If you keep seeing the "Update Apple ID Settings" notification even though you already entered the Apple ID password several times, make sure the credentials and other data are correct. Maybe you changed the password. If you have more than one Apple ID, check if you're entering the password for the right Apple ID.

Check if Apple Servers are Available

Sometimes the issues are not from your or your iPhones side. Apple has many servers, and sometimes they can be down or experience problems that you can do nothing about. We recommend checking if specific servers are available.

To check if servers are available, follow the steps below:

1. Go to their System Status webpage.
2. Check the "Apple ID", "iCloud Account & Sign In" and other servers that are related to Apple ID settings. If the server is available, you'll see a green dot next to them.

Check Apple ID servers

If any related server is down, all you can do is wait until the problem is eliminated.
