   And you gave Ant wrong information.

   It's clear this is unique to you.

   I can guarantee you this does not happen anywhere near daily. I probably   
   see this about once a year on my ipad or my iphone. Both are used   
   constantly.   
      
   I know this because I don't know my AopleID password and have to look it up   
   in my pw manager every time. If I had to do this daily I'd get passed off   
   very, very quickly.

   Problem is you refuse to learn from others. Just like you tried to with the   
   SMB epiphany. Plus we cannot prove a negative so this topic will simply go   
   around in circles. Yet again.
