APPLE-ID CHANGE PASSWORD

How do i change my apple id password if i don't remember the answers to the questions? I can't remember which favourite friend at high-school I put neither what was my dream job at the moment....

use iforgot.apple.com and choose to have a verification email sent to you instead. If that doesn't work, contact AppleCare technical support, they might be able to help you.
Good luck

Apple ID: changing password by email?

When I created my apple ID, I made up a cool but bogus email address. I later forgot my password and went to the "reset password options" page. I chose "reset by email authentication" (or something along these lines) BUT the email is bogus, what did apple do? Did they send it? I checked on the web whether there were any websites with the url I used for my fake address and there is one! I couldn't believe it but it exists and it's Russian. Now, I'm afraid that if apple sent the reset password email to my bogus email address, it might have been a real email address and might have gone to Russia somewhere :O
Can this happen or am I just being paranoid? I read about this girl on facebook whose private messages were being sent to strangers because she didn't verify her email address and it kind got me paranoid lol http://www.forbes.com/sites/kashmirhill/2014/02/05/a-teen-girls-facebook-typo-le d-horrified-stranger-to-get-thousands-of-her-messages/

Hi;

<Email Edited By Host>

Hello, Saratel.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would try to select the option to answer your security questions instead of email verification. Also, check your spam folder on your email account. If you still are not receiving the password reset link, see the second article.

Solved the problem. I had to allow cookies for safari and it run - as here: Re: itunes keeps asking for my apple id password. it's NOT entered incorrectly.

I had to change my Apple ID and password, but now when I try to download anything new it says my Apple ID is disabled. What can I do to fix this?

I had to change my Apple ID and password. Now when I try to download or buy an app it says your Apple ID is disabled. How can I fix this?

If it says "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons", then you will just need to change you password by following these steps: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2446
If it does not says "...for security reasons" you will have to contact the iTunes Store to have your account 'un-disabled' http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
Good Luck.

Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID

I have changed my apple ID and password but cannot change it on my Icloud on my Ipad or Iphone can anyone help

I have changed my apple ID on my Mac, but it has not transferred to Iclound on my phone or Ipad, how do I do this, as the option for my apple ID in the Icloud section cannot be changed on my device and it is showing my old ID can anyone help

In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

My AppStore id is my apple id n password which is good when purchasing. But when I am updating from update option it ask for a password. The user id I see there is not mine, it's different. How do I change that to my apple Id? Please help me resolve this issue. I have tried resetting it but nothing... Either I'm doing something wrong or....

I believe the issue is with the Apple ID that was used to purchase the App. If you download an App that was purchased under a different Appple ID then all updates will also be linked to the original purchaser's Apple ID. Your Apple ID is the the same ID as your iTunes, iCloud, etc. Some folks use different ID for the different Apple sites. No need for that One ID for all Apple Sites, and if someone else buys an App using their ID and they(you) download that App onto your device and that App requires an update it will ask for the purchasers Apple ID. This happens a lot when folks sell their iPad or give it to someone else and leave some purchased(free) Apps on the iOS device. You cannot change the original ID the App was purchased under. A suggestion would be if someone else has an App that you like but do not want to pay for use their ID or in the future have them gift the App to you.

I had to change my apple ID and password. When I want to update my aps. on my I phone 4S I get a box that says I need to sign in to I tunes. It has my old apple ID and I can't find any way on my phone to change the address it has in the box. Help!!

Because of a nasty virus on my computer I had to change my apple ID and password. When I went to update my apps. on my I phone 4s the box said I need to sign in to I tunes. The ID it had in the box was my old apple ID and I can't remember the password. I can't find any where in my phone settings that will let me change my I tunes ID although I have a new apple ID and password that I used to get on this site but I can't change it on my phone. Please help.
Thanks

ChrisJ4203,
Thank you for the help. Every app on my phone was downloaded using my old I-tunes ID. I just hope that they will re-download under my new ID because I still can't change it on my phone. In order to change to the new ID it says I have to sign out from the old ID and change to the new one. My problem is that I don't remember my password to be able to sign out from my old ID. Then the phone says it can change my password through e-mail and I agree but I never get an e-mail at my old address or the new one.

I had to change my Apple ID and password in itunes. Now my icloud doesn't work and I can't update my apps on my iPhone. I have looked at suggestions on the community pages and apple suggestions but none of them are relevant to iOS 8.1.2
icloud just keeps bringing up my old email address & asking for my old password which doesn't exist anymore and when I try to sign out of icloud it wants my old password, when I tried to change my primary email back to the old one it wants me to verify it through an email address that doesn't exist. Please can you help me sort out this nightmare.

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

How can i change my apple id and password, i have 2 ipads, when i upgrade the 2nd ipad for the new iOS 5, i apparently synch, including the apple ID of the first one, now I need to change ID on the 2nd?

2 ipads were upgraded on itunes on the same laptop, apparently synch and picked up the apple ID and password on the 2nd ipad, how can I change the ID and password..thanks
I created a new one but let say i go to apps store and install app, it will show dialog box with the 1st apple ID.

If these are both yours on the same account then give them different names so iTunes can tell them apart.
If the sync was an accident then do a "wipe" of the other iPad and set it up as new under a different ID and make sure iTunes knows it's a different accout, that is set it up as one, before you begin the sync.

All my other devices shows my new apple Id and password. I cant change it at mannege my apple Id because it is the new one. Itune use the new one, but no, not my iphone. So, what do I do now?

You have to do the following to get your new Apple/iCloud ID signed onto your device:
1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the old email address (do not verify it - this is temporary):
Apple - My Apple ID
2.     Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and Delete the iCloud account. Use your current Apple ID password when asked. Follow the prompts to delete the account
3.     Go back into Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to your new email address (you may need to verify it again)
4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign onto iCloud with your new Apple ID. Turn on the options you want sync'd with iCloud, give it a little time to push the info down to your device.
