    Resetting User Password in Lion, Mountain Lion & Mavericks
    Boot into your Recovery Partition by hold down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
    When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
    In Terminal, type:
    resetpassword
    ...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
    Good luck,

  • I have an I pad2, an iMac desktop and an I phone 5, how do I get them all to be bale to face time with each other, do I need different email addresses, use the phone number, or the sim number in the iPad ? Ay help gratefully received !!

    I have an I pad2, an iMac desktop(2012) and an I phone 5, how do I get them all to be able to face time with each other, do I need different email addresses, use the phone number, or the sim number in the iPad ? Any help gratefully received !!

    Graham,
    For the iPad, iMac you need to create verifyible e-mail addresses created with one of the providers such as Yahoo, Gmail,etc.  For the iphone you should use it's phone number, but an e-mail could be used for it too.  If you want to associate these e-mail addresses with a single ID, I'm including a link to give you info about how you can do that. Read it carefully, as it can be a bit confusing.

  • Cannot access iCloud because I don't have the primary email and password I originally set it up with. Is there any way to remove this primary username and password without either the email address and the password?

    How do I delete an old iCloud username and password. I have neither of them anymore and cannot access icloud to change settings. Set up a second username and password but icloud still won't rcognize the my birthdate and security questions answers I've answed. hope somebody else has had this problem. Thanks

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • How do I change my icloud email when don't know the old password after I have changed my apple ID email address and the password? icloud is still online with my old email address!!!

    I got a new phone but backed it up through my itunes, and when I tried to use icloud it kept telling me I have forgotten my password, when I really really didn't. So I went to settings > itunes&appstore and changed my password, but also changed the email address too while I was at it, since I've always wanted to change it. But now here's the problem. My iphone's icloud is currently logged in with my old apple ID email address, which seems to not work with the new password, so I can't log it or even delete the account off my iphone. And ovbiously, I don't know the old password that I have "forgotten", as my phone tells me. There seems to be no way of changing the icloud account now.... What should I do?!

    So what was the solution. I have a similar problem on all of my devices now

  • HT2204 E-mail address now defunct but apple doesn't recognise my security settings and old password is now invalid?

    Hi,
    Our original apple ID was a hotmail email address that has now been closed down as it was had a virus. I KNOW we should have changed it to our new e- mail address, but we were able to use it and log in with our password.
    I have now tried to download an app and apple says my password is incorrect - it isn't, I've put it in dozens of times today and its definatley the once we have always used. As I don't have the option of changing my password via e-mail, I have gone through the security questions and apple are saying that ALL of these are also incorrect. These are basic things like date of birth, childhood street etc.
    A such we cannot download anything on the iPad. Other people have had this problem with defunct e- mail addresses and it seems apple has re- set the passwords and security questions meaning we cannot access anything?
    Does anyone have any advice they can offer us?
    Thanks
    Esther

    It sounds like maybe your son may have changed the Primary email address for your apple id to his email address.
    If you are certain that you have the right password, try signing in to the apple id website under HIS email address and your password at appleid.apple.com
    If you can, than that is what he did and you only need to change it back to yours.
    Then have him create his own apple id properly with his own email address.
    He'll need to be at least 13 in order to be able to do it under his own birthday.
    Heres' a really easy way for him to set it up without requiring your credit card.

  • How do I get Face Time to show my new Apple ID instead of my old one?

    I changed my internet provider and therefore had to change my Apple ID - not an easy straightforward thing to do. I had to contact Apple a Support and get it straightened out. However, I cannot use FaceTime as my old Apple ID (previous email) pops up and can't get my new Apple ID (new email) to show!
    WHy is this so hard and complex to do! Can anyone help?
    i Can't do face time on any of my Apple devices: iPhone, iPad mini or my Mac Notebook.

    Hello Elizabeth,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you're being prompted to sign in to your old Apple ID when opening FaceTime, then I'd like you to simply sign out of FaceTime, and then sign back in with your correct Apple ID.

    Take care,

    The Itunes store constantly asks me to Improve Apple ID Security by adding three secret questions but won't accept my valid password.  I have tried to reset the password, update the billing info and it still won't let me make any purchases.

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • HT5625 My daughter and I were both on same Apple ID. We are trying to change hers but when we do, it says her email is already associated with an Apple ID but when we try to get the password, it says that it could not be verified. How do we correct this?

    I have an IPad mini and I changed the Apple ID and the password almost one year ago and, for a while, a message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops- up constantly. My ICloud account is registered with an old email address and password. I do not remember the password to my ICloud account, and ID address that my ICloud account is registered under is an old email adress which is deleted right now (the old mail account is deleted). I don’t have a rescue email adress and I don’t know the answers to the security questions, so I have no way of changing the ICloud password. A message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops up constantly, but I always just hit cancel. However, now I am unable to access Find My IPad. How do I get my ICloud account changed and registered to be under my current Apple ID (email) and password? It is possible to set the device as New Ipad?

  • I am a NRI who is staying in UAE. My Apple ID is configured with Indian store. I don't have a credit card in India but having it in UAE. Apple store is not accepting my Debit card from India. What is the legal way to purchase or add credits with itunes?

    I am a NRI who is staying in UAE. My Apple ID is configured with Indian store. I don't have a credit card in India but having it in UAE. Apple store is not accepting my Debit card from India. What is the legal way to purchase or add credits with itunes?

    It won't matter. You are not allowed to use the Indian iTunes Store from the UAE or anywhere else outside of India.
    The Service is available to you only in India. You agree not to use or attempt to use the Service from outside this location. iTunes may use technologies to verify your compliance.
    Since you are in the UAE, you can only use the UAE iTunes Store. You will need either to open up a new account in the UAE iTunes Store, or change the country of your existing account to the UAE.

    Welcome to the Apple community Kobra.
    Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.
