Passwords no longer working on icloud or itunes, anyone else?

ever since Apple went from mobile me to icloud my passwords do not work for either itunes or icloud. when I try to update my apps on my iphone, it won't accept ANY of my passwords, not itunes, not icloud, nothing--anyone else have this issue? If so, anyone know how to fix it as Apple staff has been useless.

Hi klucas54,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If the RDIO app is not working after the app was updated, start with the helpful troubleshooting tips in this article:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open

I had to reset my Apple password and now my iTunes and iCloud passwords no longer work. How do I get them linked again and under the same password. I've tried my new password on each login screen and it isn't accepted.

Hi skippy2012trev,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you updated your Apple Id and password but now you are being prompted for the old information in iCloud. You are on the right track by changing the Apple ID back to the previous email address temporarily so that you can sign out. You should not need to verify the email address. After you edit the Apple ID back to the old email address and then sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, edit the Apple ID back to the address you would currently like to use. There is no need to change the password again, only the email address, unless you prefer to update the password again.
If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
Cheers,
Joe

I changed my Apple ID, now I can't login to iCloud because it still has my old Apple ID and the password no longer works to log me in. How can I get back into iCloud so that I can switch off Find my iPhone so I can make these changes? Thank you.

Well, you're gonna have to recover the password for that Apple ID:

Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
Anyways I digress.
So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
Answers in a postcard :-)
Much love

Ipad show a keyboard for password, old password no longer works

I use my old iPad 1 (MC49LL) only as a great GPS in my motorhome. I use a new iPad Air for everything else. But somehow, the old unit no longer shows the regular touchpad for my password; it shows a keyboard. And my old password no longer works--the same I have used for years on all my Apple devices. I tried resetting the unit with iTunes, but the it is still calling for a password with a keyboard, and is requiring a longer and longer time between tries. Has anyone experienced this? Any idea how to get past this?

Due to security vulnerabilities, rolling back to Firefox 4.0.1 is not recommended. Firefox 3.6.18 would be the safer choice.
Here's the process to roll back:
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 5.
You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

Password no longer works after installing 4.0.3 !

Brand new Mac mini running 10.10.2. I downloaded the new OS X Server v 4.0.3 app and all installed fine..
I even created a share and transferred some test data okay...
But my main login password on longer worked when I went to go access something in System Preferences! I also couldn't use it to access the server via Screen Sharing as I had before I installed it ...and after a restart, I couldn't use it to log into the Mac!! Meanwhile Safari kept crashing ...! Infuriating !! But yet it worked when I went to go log into the Server application. ??? This used to be a piece of cake to install. What happened to Server.app ???
So I've decided to wipe the system and not use this awful 4.0.3. I'll just use regular old File Sharing for now. So annoying, but I can't have it act like this, I've wasted too much time. It's like I'm running a beta.
Is 4.0.3 just bug-ridden or what ? What happened to my system's password ???
Bad job with this one, Apple.

At upgrades or major updates I have seen the behaviour that remote access via Server.app and remote access with Screen Sharing/Apple remote Desktop are reset to "not allowed". That only explains remote access not local access though.

Help: My password no longer works, and I am unable to log in with my Apple ID

I have a macbook pro, and it has failed to start up for a few months until now. When I get to the log in screen, my old password no longer works. When I then try to reset it using my apple ID and password, an error message appears saying it cannot connect and to check my internet connection, but it gives me no option check or change the connection when this window is up. Additionally, I have tried going into recovery mode and restoring from a backup I have on an external drive which did not work, and reinstalling Yosemite all over again, but I get a message that the disk is encrypted and asks for the password (again, a problem).
If anyone has any advice on something new I could try I would greatly appreciate it!

Hi chc517,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on a couple things about your specific configuration. The message you mentioned about the disk being encrypted would seem to indicate that you may have File Vault enabled. If that is the case and you are having a login issue, you would need to use the File Vault recovery key to reset your login password instead of your Apple ID, as noted in the following article:
OS X Yosemite: FileVault recovery key

My ipad air was bought and activated AFTER September 1st and I downloaded pages, keynote and numbers. I then changed my Apple ID as the password no longer worked, these apps were also deleted I order to be updated. Now I cannot get the free version. Help?

My ipad air was bought and activated AFTER September 1st (activated December 25th) and I downloaded pages, keynote and numbers. I then changed my Apple ID as the password no longer worked, These apps had to be deleted as I needed to update them. Now I cannot get the free version on my ipad. I have searched the internet to see if there is a solution, and I found a few but unfortunately none have worked. I desperately need these apps as my iPad is used for school. Is this an issue I should take up with the apple support centre or something? Please help! Thanks

Since the update my password no longer works only on apple tv

Since the update my password no longer works on apple tv

Cute. I redid my apple password last nite and made it real simple. It worked fine signing in to the forum just now. When I use it to sign in on Apple TV I keep getting message. ' server not available'. I had gotten it to sign in earlier but netflix wouldn't play the movie. Just the previews. So I reset everything and tried to start over and I can't log on at all. So if you have any helpful suggestions I would be interested in hearing them. Thank you

HT5622 I've changed my Apple ID, but the iPod still insists on my old ID, and the old password no longer works, so I do I get the old ID to vanish and be able to use the new ID?

I've changed my Apple ID, but the iPod still insists on my old ID, and the old password no longer works, so how I do I get the old ID to vanish and be able to use the new ID?

- Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into new account.
NOTE
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

After upgrade on OS and Safari 7.1 I can no longer do 2 finger scrolling. Anyone else find this bug in upgrade?

After upgrade to 10.95 OS and Safari 7.1 I can no longer do 2 finger scrolling. Anyone else find this bug in upgrade? If so, ideas on how to fix it?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.
