Disable pop up notification “Update Apple ID Settings” on Mac OS Ventura 13.1?

A pop-up per day is enough to bounce a customer.

this is unacceptable. i have 3 macbooks that I use, but do not own. They will never connect to any cloud in such a way. I am not saving family fotos and grocery lists. Those of us that procure hardware like this, en masse, are itching to switch to Arch, etc... Please stop this behavior, i dont want my stuff in your cloud. thank you though.

I've tried signing in and signing back out, once signed out the constant nag reappears. I do not want to be signed in with an AppleID, as I don't want to use the App Store or iCloud, and I don't want to be identified personally now that Apple is heavily engaging in the advertising market.

This is very clearly a broken design, note the "Enter the password for the Apple ID "(null")" prompt in the image.

I am seeing the same behavior on an 2018 MBP 15" and 2020 Air M1, both since 13.1 install.

I'd greatly appreciate if Apple would stop doing 50% of the obnoxious behaviors of Microsoft and claiming that that is acceptable / "privacy".

I update my to 13.2 and it doesn't work.

Do you have a solution ? With a command for example ?

I recently updated to 13.1 and am notified every time I boot to this notification.

I do not use Mac OS logged in and I don’t want to. I use my Mac for work and don’t use any iCloud features or the App Store.

There is also now a red badge on my settings app. When I go to notifications on 13.1 I notice there is no way to mute notifications from System Preferences.

I do not need an Apple ID or iCloud features on my work computer. I do not wish to create one for this purpose. How do I disable/mute this notification from re-appearing?

It would be simple enough to “Update Apple ID Settings” whether you use it or not...

or talk to your work IT department if it bound to some Enterprise, JAMF, MDM, active directory list (?)

I've had that issue for weeks now.

- I open System Settings

- click on the "Update Apple ID Settings" notification at the top, then click the "Continue" button that is displayed

- fill in my Apple ID (email) and password

- fill in the OTP sent to my phone

Cursor spins for a bit, the screen clears, and I'm back to the 2nd step above, and can repeat 2/3/4 steps as much as I wish. I still have the notification and will have it pop up again tomorrow. Power down and restart hasn't affected it.

Have you tired it from a Safe Mode boot?

Really don't know what you mean by the advertising comment. I've been signed in with my Apple ID for over 20 years and don't remember getting more than maybe 1 email per month regarding AppleTV, Apple Music or system updates/upgrades.

Where do you get your 3rd party apps if not from the App Store?

For me, yes I tried the safe boot methodd - no change.

Oddly though, after giving up on it days ago, I tried it again today and the issue is resolved! It didn't just spin, it finally moved on to the T&C agreement blah blah and let me all the way through the sign-in process. Finally the red badge is gone from my system settings icon in the dock.

I get that when I update my system. I go into the System/Apple ID and there's a note to reenter my Apple password. Once I do they popup is gone till the next update.
