Can I retrieve my original Apple ID password

Is it possible to retrieve my original Apple ID password...?
I cannot re set new password as I can't remember my first password..I've restored my ipad to factory settings but still can't use apps because of forgotten original password. I've changed password many times and still cannot use apps or face time..it really is catch 22...can any one help please?
I've contacted apple several times with no luck..they can't or won't help me..

Go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com; click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'.

  • Recently bought a used macbook. my problem is that i can't retrieve the original apple ID/password so that i can use my own ?

    bought a used macbook pro. When i click the top right corner where "user" would be displayed, once i click on it it requires a password to login "windows".
    problem is, i don't know the password or apple ID

    If you have downloaded any older Mac OS X version 10.7 or later to another Mac, you can re-download from Recovery. You may have to enter YOUR Apple-ID.
    If you have never downloaded an older version before, go the the Mac App Store, log in with YOUR Apple_ID, and BUY a copy of Mavericks or Yosemite. It is on sale for $0. Download it and Install it over what is on that Mac.

    If you can't get a rescue email sent to you, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • Can I change the original apple id to activate ipad

    I am wondering if any iPad expert out here can help me. I had to reset my son's iPad 2 after he forgot the new pass code he changed last week. Now I am getting the Activate iPad screen.
    I have the Apple Id that was used to activate the iPad as we bought it from new. But I can't remember the password. I managed to sign in to myAppleId site through security question validation, and requested password resetting for the Apple Id.
    Apple sent a verification link to the email address which is my son's hotmail.co.uk account, but he has not used this hotmail account for long long time as he could not remember the password. It is all a bit of mess, I know.
    So now, I am stuck.
    In the my Apple Id site, I have an option to change Apple Id and primary email address. If I change this to my email account, and consequently change the Apple Id as well, will I be able to use this new Apple Id to activate the iPad? My worry is that it will still not match with the original Apple Id we first used to activate the iPad from new.
    I am absoulely frustrated. Contacted Microsoft regarding resetting hotmail account password, the security rules are so restrict, and they can't help as this hotmail account has not been in use for long long time, and I can't provide any info such as when the last email was sent, etc.
    Please help me ...
    Many thanks in advance.

    Yes, easy to do.
    Go to Settings>General>Erase All Content and Settings, then set up your iPad as a new one. You'll have to put in your ID and password to force the erase.

  • How can you retrieve a forgotten game center password?

    I need help! My 8-year-old son set-up his own separate account/nickname for Game Center. Now he can't recall his password. Because he is so young, his account  had to be piggy-backed with an adult's account. How can I retrieve his password? He's very upset at the prospect of having to start all hs games over.
    He had a nickname, too.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forums! This is your first question, right?
    Game Center isn't needed for any of your son's games to work. I don't think a 8 year old needs leaderboards or achievements. You can play without GC, but you can also try this approach by Cosmic Ray. Read the full discussion with the link below.
    Hello everyone. I was having the exact same problem. Forgot my password and was unable to sign back into my Game Center account. I just figured out how to get back on, using the same Apple ID.
    On Game Center sign in screen, just click "Create New Account." I entered the exact same email that I had used before, and same personal information. It alerted me that the email address was already in the system and if I wanted to use this again. I clicked "yes." After clicking the "Agree" button, my previous Apple ID was active again and I was able to sign in.
    Hope this helps. Good luck!

  • Erased backup for imac and can not retrieve purchases thru apple for upgrades of lion, leopard

    can not retrieve backup or time machine information for imac which was upgraded from os x 10.5 to lion & snow leopard thru apple store.  I somehow erased everything including recovery disk and when i try to upgrade it says that my imac version is too  old and needs to be upgraded to implement the new version.  However, i can not redownload any of my previous purchases or even rebuy because it my imac is back too old version.

    Snow Leopard would have come on install disks, not via a download from the app store. So do you have the disks? You need to install that first before you can download/install anything later such as Lion. If you don't have the disk, you can buy it.
    What year/model iMac do you have?

  • Can I replace my original Apple ID with a different one?

    I just retired from teaching. My original Apple ID is my school email address. Now that I'm retired I'd like to use my personal email account as my ID. If I replace the original ID with the new one, will  I have access to everything that was associated with my original ID?  Thank you in advance for the help.

    Change AppleID - https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/  then > Manage Your Account
    To continue to change it for iTunes:
    Select the iTunes store in iTunes.
    Click the account name at top right, sign out then sign back in.
    Apple ID Support - http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/  -> Apple ID FAQ http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37
    Yes, changing an ID will still give you access to previous purchases, making a new account with new ID will not.
