HT6154 My Apple account password has been reset on the count that it says it's incorrect. I just made a new one after making a previous new one, and now it says the new one is incorrect after trying to log in to download an app. EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED & C

My Apple account password has been reset a couple times due to Apple telling me my passwords are incorrect. I know they aren't because I have already had to change the password three times, and I keep record of my password. Yet, it continuously tells me my password is incorrect. I have just changed it, again, and now I cannot log into the itunes store to download an app because it's telling me my new password is incorrect.
I just bought the new iphone 5s today, so does this have anything to do with it? Please help, this is extremely frustrating.

Need to Resume download to complete the ongoing Process.
Last Resort, put the iPhone in DFU mode (Google How to do that). Connect in iTunes. Follow on-screen prompts to Restore. All Data would be lost, if not backed up earlier.

Recieving a 'Your Apple ID password has been reset.' e-mail every few days

Greetings!
I have an inactive Apple ID that has been dormant for over two years. A few months ago I began receiving Your Apple ID password has been reset.
e-mails every few weeks. Changing my password resolved the problem...for a couple of weeks. About two weeks ago I started recieving the 'password reset' e-mail every second or third day. I change my password and a day or two later...same e-mail. I looked for a 'delete account' option in the Apple ID section of the Apple website but could not find one.
My main Apple ID (the one I am currently using) is safe but I don't like the fact that my old account is being accessed regularly. There must be a way to delete the old account permanently. Thanks in advance to anyone who can point in the right direction.
Cheers!
jj

You'll have to contact apple support and see if they can delete the apple ID for you

I have had an email saying that my Apple ID password has been reset. This was not by me. Does this mean that someone has accessed my account?

I have received an email saying that my Apple ID has been reset. This wasn't by me!! Does this mean that someone has accessed my account. Tried phoning Apple but they keep sending me emails saying that they have tried but I haven't answered. My number is correct.

Are you sure they say the password has been changed or that *if* you want to change it, then go to a web site and do it there. If the latter, just ignore the email. If the former (and I'm assuming the email is regarding a changed password, but it could mean the security questions have been changed), then using a computer's browser, try logging into icloud.com. If you can do that using the old password, then it's not clear what the email means.

My account password has been reset but nothing is being emailed to my email address. What to do?

My account password for itunes has been reset because of me trying to log in too much with the wrong password, it says that it has been reset but nothing has been emailed to my address. What do I do? It has been years since I have logged into my itunes on my old computer and I have put off buying any music because I want to get this fixed and not loss the ability to play the songs that I have now on my ipod.

Try it again and keep checking your email, it also depends on how fast your Internet is because, I used to have a really slow Internet connection thing and it would take hours or even a day!! If you have another apple product like phone, or iPod see if you can go on there and try it. I'm not that advanced with this stuff but it works for me!

My apple ID password has been reset (weekly basis) by someone else

Every now and then I get an email from apple support that my password to my account has been succesfully reset. The only problem is that it's not me who keeps resetting it! After these mails I've been changing my password a couple of times in a month for almost a year now, and I'm running out of good passwords that I can remember...how can I get rid of hackers, it would be nice to be able to use the same password for longer periods

There could be many reasons. Another person may be using your computer or has been able to access your email account. We all use so many devices you have to also make sure any phones or tablets that you use are secureas well. Try changing your apple email address, your apple password, and the email's password.

Unable to log in after account password has been reset by email with tokens ect ect ect

After going to the page and changing my password i go try logging into skype and it fails to log me in sucessfully i have submitted 2 web form requests to skype customer support to "look into this issue" several weeks ago, i've yet to hear back from either request (the reply isn't being blocked by my bulk email provider or in my spam folder... i have searched the skype support page while logged in with a 2nd account but cannot find a "live chat" link to speak with customer support, suggestions appreciated. --------- Forwarded message ----------

My apple id password has been changed. Suspicious e-mail...Hacked?

Hello. I am the owner of an apple iPhone 5. I recently tried to update an app, to my dismay, the app store was not recognizing my apple id password. I checked my email to see if there was an email and sure enough, there was an email from apple with the subject reading "How to Reset your Apple id Password" and also "Your Apple id Password has been reset". The disturbing part is that these emails were received at 1:26 AM and 1:27 AM. The other mysterious part is that the emails do not show up in my email on the computer, but they do on my phone. However, the emails were deleated from my mailbox. I know this because i tried to access them on my phone and what I get is "Sorry, there was an error while loading this message." All feeback will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I have the same problem.
This morning received a message that my password has successfully been reset, although I did not reset this.
My password did not work anymore so it has indeed been reset.
So I changed my password again.
I did not change my security questions because I have changed them not long ago.
I also did not receive a mail of 'how to reset your password, so it wasn't hacked through my mail.
But to be sure I did change my mailbox password.
I have an apple device (iPhone 5 and ipad) since November 2012 and it had been hacked already 4 times. 2 times by someone from china who bought an app and bought for 120euros of in-app purchases which luckily got refunded.
I really don't know how they do this. I am the only one who knows the answers to the security questions and there is no way someone could guess these because some answers are fictional. I have also had to change my password a dozen times and there are no kids in my household that can tingle with my devices.
My iPhone and iPad are genuine and not jail-broken.

How to get Reports for specific User that how many password has been reset using FIM SSPR in FIM 2010 R2 SSPR

Hi,
How to get Reports for specific User that how many password has been reset using FIM SSPR in FIM 2010 R2 SSPR
Regards
Anil Kumar

Hello there Anil,
A simple way to quickly get a overview is to look at the request history within the portal environment (note that this will expire in a few day based on your environment, after that you would need to FIM Reporting Module - but you could increase this to
maybe 60 days to so, watch the DB size).
To do this you could create some custom search scopes of do some custom queries. The creator of the SSPR activities always has the same GUID so you can use that so search.
In your search scope you can use the following XPath to play with.
- All Password Reset Requests - /Request[Creator='b0b36673-d43b-4cfa-a7a2-aff14fd90522' and Operation='Put']
- All Completed Password Reset Requests - /Request[Creator='b0b36673-d43b-4cfa-a7a2-aff14fd90522' and RequestStatus=‘Completed']
You can play with the "RequestStatus".
Hope this helps.

I keep getting emails saying my password has been reset but i am not doing it?

every week i am getting a reset your password link and then another saying my password has been reset.
i am running out of passwords to choose.
is it likely to be an error

Who else knows your Apple ID and password?
I would also change the password for the Mail account you use with the Apple ID since someone could have hacked into that mail account.
Furthers I would go to iTunes>Store>View Account and go to Purchase History see if there are any purchases that you did not make. If problem also contact iTunes
Contact iTunes

I keep receiving emails saying my apple id password has been changed when I havent changed it? Nobody else has access to my emails or can answer my security questions??

I keep receiving emails saying my apple id password has been changed when I havent changed it? Nobody else has access to my emails or can answer my security questions??
I have changed my email password aswell as having to keep changing my apple is password an it keeps changing?

Sounds like you follow good practices.
This has been going around for some time in various forms, a number of users have asked about it and the best advice is if in doubt go doirectly to Apple, not links in the email. Calling Apple or using the Apple site is always the best approach.
A few have even noticed very slight misspellings in the emails, things like Appel instead of Apple...most people don't even notice those.
Anyway, safe computing and have a good day.

After password has been reset how do I reset keychain?

After password has been reset how do I reset keychain?

That article is a great help if you remember your OLD login password.
If not, the bad news is in this article:
OS X: Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password
read it carefully, It explains how to change your keychain by using the OLD password.
If you don't remember your original (former) account password
If you don't remember your original password, you'll need to delete the keychain. Deleting a keychain also deletes all the password data saved in that keychain.
If this applies, it means is that your old saved passwords are lost.
You will have to start collecting them anew and adding them to the new keychain. Use Web mail and log in to your email with a Browser. Get them to send you your old password or reset it, then record the new one in Mail Preferences, and it will be saved in the current login keychain.
You will have to do a similar exercise with your other saved passwords.

HT5622 seems like every 3-4 days I get an email from Apple saying your password has been reset,if you didn't change it go to etc'

ipad 4
ALmost every few days I get an email from Apple saying your password has been changed.... if you didn't change please go to Apple and change your id password
I have had to do this for the 7th time in 4 weeks

If you are receiving e-mail messages that indicate that someone is trying to reset your Apple ID password, they may be phishing scams. Do not click any links in those e-mail messages, and if you make the mistake of doing so, do not provide your current Apple ID password on the page you are directed to.
Unfortunately, in this case, there's nothing to be done except treat those messages the same way you would any other spam.
The other possibility is that someone is actually trying to reset your Apple ID password. This may be due to a malicious attack, but more likely, it's just someone who thinks your Apple ID is actually theirs (due to a typo, faulty memory or something similar) and is trying to "regain" access. In any case, this is merely an annoyance, but you can put an end to it by enabling two-factor authentication on your Apple ID. This will require an additional piece of information that only you will possess in order to even start the password reset process.
If you are actually seeing your password getting changed, and are having to reset it yourself to regain access, you are being hacked. This could be because your password is not strong enough to withstand a brute-force attack by a botnet. It could also be because the attacker already has access to your e-mail address, and is able to intercept the reset e-mail and complete the reset process. Because of that danger, you should change the password for the e-mail account associated with your Apple ID. You should also change the password for your Apple ID, making sure that it is a strong password, and enable two-factor authentication as mentioned above.

How can I get the verification code for iCloud it's not letting me do it password has been reset but I can't reset the iPad until I have turned off find my iPad but I can't do that until I have verified iCloud any ideas

I'm trying to help set up a new iPad but it will not send me or cannot receive the verification email so I can set up iCloud what can I do?

Hello Slordan2012
Log in to appleid.apple.com and resend the verification email to then verify the address. If you cannot get pass that, then you can always force the restore on your iPad and then enter in the password to bypass trying to turn it off.
