Irritating iCloud pop up messages on iPhone

    So I've got my first smart phone and it isn't going too well. It's a hand me down. I missed work the other day. It turns out the alarm only goes off if the phone is turned on.

    But more importantly. I've noticed that I get heaps of "sign into iCloud" pop up messages every time I'm trying to do something. I keep having to hit cancel. I remember once, I struggled to actually answer a phone call because one of these messages kept popping up as I was trying to answer the phone.

    Can anyone help with this.It's not just iCloud, it's facebook ones too. Thanks

    Sounds like your flux capacitor needs cleaned.

    Dip a cotton bud in rubbing alcohol and clean around it thoroughly.

    Make sure to use gluten free alcohol though!

    People who begin sentences with So are usually adept at this sort of thing.

    I think you might have better luck here than in After Hours.

    Did you know your fridge will only keep food cold if it's turned on? Weird, I know.

    Give it a rest will you not all people are as smart as you.:p

    Unlike you, Apple has a caring and inclusive approach to that kind of user.
    All Apple products have rounded edges to prevent these people from injuring themselves.:D

    Mod note: Hi folks, I'll close this one up for now and move it over to the Apple forum where they will be more familiar with these issues. Bear with us for a few minutes while the transfer goes ahead.
