Apple users had to face surprise as they were suddenly logged out of their Apple accounts on all their devices and had to reset their passwords to get back in. This made a lot of users upset, and it got people talking on social media.
Around 8 p.m. ET, people on Twitter and Mastodon started talking about a strange problem. Lots of Apple users found themselves kicked out of their devices for no reason. When they tried to log back in with their usual passwords, they got locked out again.
The only way to get back in was to reset their passwords. This problem seemed random, with no clear reason why it was happening.
Apple ID Chaos on Social Media
On social media, angry users complained about the issue. Bryan Valderrama tweeted, “Hey @AppleSupport, all my Apple stuff suddenly locked me out of my Apple ID and wants me to verify my account. But my password doesn’t work even though I’m sure it’s right. What’s happening? I can’t even reset my password!”

Despite lots of people having the same problem, Apple’s System Status webpage showed everything was fine. This made users even more frustrated because Apple hadn’t said anything about the problem. People tried to ask Apple about it, but there hasn’t been an official response yet.
This incident brings up a few worries, especially about security and how inconvenient it is. People who had Stolen Device Protection turned on were in a tough spot. Getting logged out randomly can be risky, especially if you’re not at home.
Also, people who had to reset their Apple ID passwords found out that any special passwords they set up for apps using iCloud were also reset. This made things even more complicated.
This might be linked to the ongoing password reset attacks that have been happening lately, but it’s not clear if there’s a direct connection. This adds to the stress and confusion for users.

This situation reminds us how easily things can go wrong online. Users need to stay aware and keep an eye on any updates from Apple as things progress.
