Forgot my password to download apps

any help with getting passcode to download apps, not get into the phone but to purchase or update apps?

Go into iTunes and then into iTunes Store.
- Open your account and it will ask for your password
- Click "Forgot Password"
It will then take you to a page which has two options.
- Option 1 will send you an email to allow you to reset your password.
- Option 2 will ask you your secret question and if you can answer it, it will give you your password.

  • My iPad has stopped asking for my apple I'd password when downloading apps.  I want it to ask for password because my kids keep downloading apps without asking.  How do I rectify this?

    My apple I'd has stopped asking for my password when downloading apps to my iPad.  I want it to ask every time.  I edited it unknowingly and I need to change it back.  Please help! Thx

    Assuming that you've got the relevant iOS version on the iPad, then you can change it from a 15 minute period during which it doesn't need to be re-entered to immediately via Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password

  • Can't reset Apple ID password to download apps to iPhone 4S

    I have tried to reset my Apple ID password to download app updates to my iPhone 4S. The 4S will NOT recognize the reset password. My iPad 2 and iTunes (MacBook Pro) WILL recognize the reset password for app updates. Solution??

    First you must try to reset your password from the Apple ID support site - https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    If all efforts fail here, then you must contact "the iTunes store support", as these are the only people who have access to your Apple ID data.  Technical support does not.
    The iTunes store support can only be contacted via email, from their support web site at - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • When I attempt to download from the app store, the wrong apple id pre-populates.  How do I get the correct apple id to auto-fill so I can put in the right password and download apps?

    When my wife bought this ipad 18 months ago, she (or the store) set up an Apple ID that had the extension @me.com.  She never wrote down the password that was created.  Neither of us knew how to change the password and retrieve or create the new one.  When we started actually trying to download apps, this became a problem.  She called customer support before the first year of ownership ended, and they created a new Apple ID.  This ID works; we can go to the support site and log in with it, yada yada.  However, when I go to the app store and want to get a new app or update an existing app, the Apple ID login field prepopulates with her original ID, which is no good to us.  I can't find any way of putting in the new, valid Apple ID in this login field.  Why doesn't the app store give me the option to change the Apple ID this device wants to use?  How do I change this setting?  I'm in a time crunch, and we need to be able to download and use a few apps for some business purposes.

    settings -> iTunes & App Store
    click on apple ID listed there
    select Sign Out
    sign in with the proper account
    from then on, when the store ask for your password it should be with the correct ID

  • Password for downloading apps

    I'm a new Mac user. I'm trying to download several applications but my Apple ID password is not accepted. It is accepted for anything other than downloading apps. I understood that the same password (Apple ID) would work on downloads as well. I tried resetting the password but I'm not able to 'break the code'.
    Thank you in advance.

    I think you use a apple id to log into the app store to download stuff from there (I don't use the app store so I am assuming that fact).  Generally you don't need any passwords to download from other places outside the app store.  But no matter how you download the app, once downloaded, if it requires a password to install (didn't think anything from the app store would require that) then in all cases it is the admin password that is required.
    If you didn't set up this machine and let a "genius" do it you need to contact him to find out what your admin password is.

  • No password to download apps

    Hey all,
    i was wondering why sometimes i don't need a password to enter to download apps? This only happens on the free ones but does it happen to the pay one as well??
    Thanks

    Depends upon home much time has elapsed since your last sign in.

  • No keyboard to fill in password when downloading app

    when I press install to download app I have to fill in password but I cannot do that because there is no keyboard to fill in the password

    I am not really sure if this will answer you question in one part of you post you say you can download free apps and in the other you say you can't but I will give it my best shot.  Itunes (the app store) always needs up to date payment info either a credit card with atleast a dollar on it you wont get charged anything if the app is free this it just to back purchases.  Or if you don't want to put you credit card info in you can just get a prepaid itunes card.  Itunes will ask for your passcode every fifteen min. you can set it to ask for it every time you purchase something but every 15 min is the norm.  Hope this helps. 

  • Forgot the password to delete app store

    i've made a password diffrent from my apple ID password to delete app store and other locked apps and now i forgott it. Can i reset the password?

    Not without remembering it, that is what makes a password secure.
    If you have Find My turned on in Settings > iCloud you can use your Apple ID and password to turn that off, and then you can restore to factory condition, that is erase all content and settings, to get rid of the other password.  There is no way to change it without having it.

  • HT201304 is it possible to make it so i dont need to enter my password to download apps etc i keep my device pw protected and that is safe enough for me

    I dont want to have to enter my apple id password to make in app purchases, download or update apps

    Not possible! Further downloads within 15 mins of a previous download do not require the re-entering of the password.

  • IPhone 4S keeps asking for password when downloading app

    My iPhone 4S keeps asking me for my password - over and over - when I try to download an app. I've noticed that when I try to download free apps or update an existing app, it lets me do it. But if I try to download a free app or even a ringtune it will tell me I need to update payment info, then goes to ask for my password, then it requests my password again and again. Has anyone had any problems with this or suggestions on how to solve it? It's driving me nuts!

  • Device always asking for apple password b4 downloading apps

    my device is always asking for apple store password even though I'm supposedly signed on. Is that normal?

    That is normal, because it doesn't want somebody that may have stolen your device to go using your money on apps you don't want.

  • Won't take my password to download apps

    My password will let me in everything except downloading apps
