Are you running any anti - virus programs? Using a VPN?


Try setting up another admin user account in System Preferences/Users & Groups to see if the same problem continues. Also try the Safe Mode.

If it works in the Safe Mode, try running this program when booted normally and then copy and paste the output in a reply.

Hi Karolis144 -


There is definitely something going on with Apple and being signed in on different applications. I have had to 'unlock' my account every morning for over 3 weeks. iMessage, iTunes, Podcasts, Apple TV, etc... all are requiring me to sign on multiple times a day. Not sure if this has something to do with Big Sur update (which I have not done yet) but about the time they rolled it out is about when this all started happening. Wish I had a solution for you but I've not found one yet. Just wanted you to know you're not alone in the problems you're having. Hopefully Apple will figure it out soon and offer a solution. If I find anything out regarding this, I'll definitely post it here. Good luck!
