    You must back up all data before continuing, unless you've already done so. If you need to back up but can't log in, ask for instructions.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

    forgot icloud password, how to get it recover without any question and also alternative email because someone hacked my alternative email id. need password for using icloud hopefully i will get result from you as your earliest.

    I'm sorry, but I know nothing about iCloud email. I stayed away from iCloud email and only use iCloud for limited purposes.
    But take a look at this discussion and read the response from randers4. He is one of the iCloud experts in the Apple Support Communities.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/24358339#24358339
    If that doesn't help, you might be better off posting in here where there are other more knowledgable iCloud users.

    Forgot my password, how do I retrieve, change get in to mac pro?

    Start in Single User Mode and reset your password.  Or if you are on 10.7 or 10.8, start to the Recovery partition and reset your password.  I will not detail the steps here but Google is your friend.

    i forgot my password, how can i delete password byt save photos if i didnt sync my ipad with pc?

    You will need to try to restore your iDevice from the same computer that you most recently synced to.
    Read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If you can't do the restore then you will need to try Recovery Mode.

    Follow the instructions very carefully.

  • HT201210 forgot my password,  how do i get back on

    my son forgot his password to unlock his I pod.  How can he unlock it?

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten passcode:
    Restore (and reset passcode) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414  ( https://discussions.apple.com/message/20025416 - "A restore erases the iPod. If you restore from backup the iPod will be like it was IF the iTunes library includeds [sic] all the synced media like apps and music since those are not included in the backup.")
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected (or the device was never connected to a computer) you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)
    If none of the above work, try:

  • I'm not receiving the AppleId email when I hit Forgot my password, how do I fix this?

    I can’t recall my password for a different iTunes Id and I’ve went to AppleId.apple.com, pressed the ‘forgot your password’ button, it brought me to a new page with my email, I’ve made sure that I was my email, I hit Email authentication, and then it brings me to a page that says: “ Email has been sent”, but I’m not receiving any email in my Gmail account. I’ve made sure that I have no filters for Apple or iTunes and checked my Spam, and Trash folders and I see nothing.

    Hi CoalBeans,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resource below explains what to do if you do not receive the verification email for your Apple ID.
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201455
    When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account. If you can't find the email after we send it, these steps can help.
    Search for the email
    We'll send the email from "Apple," so you can quickly search for it. If it isn't in your inbox, check your folders. If a spam filter or email rule moved the email, it might be in the Spam, Junk, Trash, Deleted Items, or Archive folder.
    Make sure you're checking the correct email account
    If you're looking for a password reset email, make sure you're checking the correct email inbox. It will either be your primary Apple ID email address or a separate rescue email address that you added to your account. 
    If you're looking for a verification email, you can sign in to My Apple ID and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it and send another verification email.
    Resend the email
    To resend a reset email, repeat the steps to reset your password or security questions, and we'll send an email to your rescue or primary Apple ID email address.
    To resend the verification email, go to My Apple ID, select Manage your Apple ID, then sign in. Click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify, and we'll send an email to that address.
    Make sure that you're getting email
    If you're not getting any email, you might need to contact your email service provider for help. You can also use these steps to get help receiving email at OS X Mail or an iCloud email address. 
    Contact us
    Go to System Status and see if Apple ID is available. If you still can't find the reset email or verification email, contact Apple Support.

  • My daughters ipad is locked she forgot the password how can we unlock it?

    My daugther forgot the password and I can't get it unlock can you pls help me

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
    You may have to force iPad/iPod into Recovery Mode
