Can I swap my recovery email for my primary email?

i want my recovery email as my primary email and i don't know how to do it!!?

You can try removing it as your rescue email address - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 :
Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
Click "Manage your account"
When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
Click Password & Security
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.
Step 6 should also give you a Delete button next to it.
When you've done that you may then need to log out of that site before logging back in and seeing if you can then use it as your primary email address. And then similarly log out and see if you can add your current primary email address as your rescue email address.

  • HT5577 I can't access my recovery email and I can't remember my security questions

    Hi guys I can't access my recovery email and can't remember my security question what should I do now ??

    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.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • My LG Optimus Zone is having software issues and I can't access the Recovery Menu for a Factory Reset

    My LG Optimus Zone is having software issues and I can't access the Recovery Menu for a Factory Reset. It was working fine until I went to activate it and update the PRL. It turns on, but Freezes on the LG Logo. it currently goes into the LG Download Mode, and When I restore with LG's Mobile Support Tool, It finishes, reboots, and stays at the boot Logo. I was wondering if I can possibly get a replacement phone? This is a little upsetting, as i was hoping to have it transfered from prepaid to postpaid service next month

  • How can I edit my recovery email address if my password had been locked?, How can I edit my recovery email address if my password had been locked?

    How can I edit my recovery email address if my password had been locked? I couldn't receive the reset my password email because I think my recovery email address was invalid.

    The idea of a Recovery email is so the rightful owner accomplishes the recovery, so I don't know of a process to edit that address if you don't know the Apple ID and associated Password.

    You will only know about the hard drive when you try to access it in TDM from your other computer. If you cannot boot into TDM mode or if the drive does not appear on the new computer's Desktop then it is likely bad.
    What you are thinking about as a recovery disk is the Recovery HD normally created when you install Lion or later on the computer. You boot from it as follows:
    Boot Using Command+R keys:
      1. Restart the computer.
      2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the
          "COMMAND" and the "R" keys together.
      3. Release the keys when the Utilities Menu appears.

  • How can I get a recovery disk for Satellite P300-1CI?

    Hi everybody,
    first, sorry for my english, I'm a belgian and I speak french.
    Yesterday I bought a toshiba Satellite P300-1CI, when I started, I must installed Vista home.
    I would like to format my disk and reinstall my old Windows XP.
    My question is : How can keep an image disk with Vista? I don't have an installation disk of Vista and don't know my registration key of it.
    How can I have a recovery disk ?
    Can you help me please.
    PS : Sorry for my english

    Hi mate
    User manual is really interesting document and in most cases it answer all you questions ;)
    Anyway, the Toshiba recovery disk should be created before you would format and install on the HDD.
    You have to use the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator application in order to create the Recovery DVD.
    Now to you other question;
    The Vista image which is preinstalled and placed on the Recovery disk (after recovery disk has been created) is activated already and you dont need to insert any keys or activate anything.

  • Can i swap my iphone 6 for a 6 plus

    i have an iphone 6 and a ipad air
    i no longer want my ipad air and would like to sell it and swap my iphone 6 for a iphone 6 plus if it is possible in anyway ??
    many thanks

    If you go into an Apple Store they will buy the products off you (credit) as recycle value and you can place towards anything in the store.
    If you brought the iPhone 6 recently I would ask them if you can exchange it (if still boxed)?
    If it has been open then I imagine they would only offer you the exchange value in credit.
    Either way they might both add up to the cost of an iPhone 6 Plus.
    Otherwise there is also eBay or Gumtree.

  • Can not make a recovery disc for Toshiba Laptop

    When I try to make a recovery disc for my Toshiba Satellite L305-S5919 I receive the following message:
    An error occurred in the recording phase. Please check if the disc is scratched or dirty.
    Error Code: 0E01B5-26-2A040301.
    I have tried to do a recovery disc since buying the Computer in June 2009. The message always comes up at the same spot in the process. I am using DVD-R discs.

    Can you burn to those disks using the regular Disk Writer Program?  It doesn't matter what type as long as it's to that same batch of disks.
    I would contact Toshiba as per this post and request that they provide you with a set of Recovery Disks since you can't make your own.  They shouldn't charge you for them under the circumstances, but you might have to be forcefull about it.
    If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

  • Tecra S10 - Can I order a recovery disk for another language?

    Does anybody know how to change the Windows 7 language on a Tecra S10?
    Can I just order an Englsih recovery disc from here:
    [https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx]
    If so, what is the price of these discs?
    The PC has a license for the preinstalled German Windows 7 Pro 32-bit, and I need it to English.

    > {quote:title=as*** wrote:}{quote}You cannot do this. Notebooks are country specific products and when you buy your notebook it is prepared for certain market. By missing recovery disc you can order original disc only.
    >
    > For different language use Microsoft installation disc.
    >All necessary drivers, tools and utilities you can download from Toshiba support page under [http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com]
    This sounds downright stupid, considering that we have this EU thang nowadays. But somehow, the "wise" peeps at Toshiba Nordic have decided not to import Tecra S10, which is Toshiba's best equipped pro laptop series. Then when I have to buy a brand new one from Germany, I first have to download a 2.4 GB Windows 7 Pro 32-bit ISO-image and burn my own installation disc, (done already). THEN, I have to download 4close to 50 files to get all S10 specific drivers, tools and utils. With bad luck, Windows requires a reboot after every install. :-(
    If I just could order an English S10 recovery disc, I wouldn't commit any piracy, and I'll gladly pay some € 30 for it. to save a lot of frustrating work.
    I hope that the license number on the bottom of the PC will work for my downloaded installation disc...

    Thank you, and expecting quick response

    Hello
    I don't know where you bought your notebook but if you have European notebook model please visit https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx and check if you can order it there.
    Other way contact nearest Toshiba authorized service provider. They can order it for you.
