Apple got the weekend off to a weird start for some of its users.
As has been reported at 9to5Mac and The Verge, a strange problem is occurring for some users of Apple devices. Namely, folks are finding that their Apple ID accounts have been logged out and they need to log back in. For at least some of these users, logging back in with the original password actually locks you out of the account until you change the password to something else.

The especially unusual part is that Apple’s system status webpage doesn’t show anything wrong with its services, and the company hasn’t said anything about this publicly yet. But something is clearly wrong if this many people on social media are complaining about it.
All of this is to say: Don’t be surprised if your Apple device starts acting funky this weekend.
