New nuisance "sign into itunes store" is coming up quite a bit in last few days on iphone. I never have a need to go to the itunes store. Anyone know why I'm getting this and how to stop it? Thanks.

It's an age old Apple iOS bug.

Apple is too lazy to fix it. Sucks.

Yes, it's one of those things that boggle the mind.
It can't be impossible to fix.

Software quality is not what it used to be. And they seemingly don't care.

I just checked on Google.
This has been happening since at least 2010.

WTF, Apple ?

The customers are buying Iphones like crazy with bugs or without. That is why Apple simply do not care about it. Maybe something will change when they will lose some clients. As of right now, they are just overconfident. :/

It was sig spam. Sigs are hidden for new users, so it didn't even show up yet, and Thorz has no mercy.
The new Mac Pro has up to 30 MB of cache inside the processor itself. That's more than the HD in my first Mac. Somehow I'm still running out of space.

It was showing up. I seen it. Some restaurant.

I decided to let it slide — for now — because the post was on topic.

I got this yesterday, and it happens often. It would be nice if Apple had a line about why they needed me to login.
