Forgot the password to my account what to do?
I have forgotten my password for my account.. and now i can't get updates anymore etc...
on apple.com/support was information about it.. it said i needed to put my installation cd in the mac etc.. but that didn't work at all... it didn't do anything...
can someone help me? please?
thanks anyway...
I'm having the same problem as missmac87. My DVD driver works fine - I just tested it with Men in Black. I am running OSX 10.4.11 and tried to boot up with the 10.4 Install DVD, holding down the C key, and it wouldn't do it. So, my Account password is different than my Admin password (which I use when updating software)? The latter I use all the time, the former I can't figure out.
All I'm trying to do is connect to my wife's printer which is connected to her PC. She said something about adding a local port. I'd also like to set up a shared folder that we can both access. In System Preferences>Sharing>Enable accounts... that's where the problem is. How in the world do I reset this password or figure it out? She tried to connect to me, can see me, but with the same password problem.

i need to change my rescue email,but i forgot the password to that email,what will i do?and i have 25 ueros on this apple account so i dont want to make a new one!
Have you forgotten your password? - if so, you have a problem if the email address has gone dead.
If you know your password, go to the iTunes Store, click on Account. log in and you can change the associated email address.
If you don't know your password, and have no email address, you are going to have problems because it's difficult to see how Apple are going to identify you as the authorised owner of the account. Contact iTunes Support: go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ - click on 'Other iTunes Store Features' in the list and then on 'Podcasts'. You will see a link to either 'Express Lane', which will guide you eventually to some contact options, or you may see a link to email them. -

Please be aware that you cannot "buy some additional GB to [your] iPad"; the storage capacity of the iPad is fixed at the time of manufacture. You can buy additional iCloud storage, but that's not the same thing.

I can't sign in or out of iCloud. Forgot the password to an email address I no longer have access to. What next? From what I'm reading in the forums, once the email address is set up it cannot be changed. True? If so, um, stupid.
Message to log in to iCloud every time I reply or forward an email. Have to indicate to ignore every time. Annoying.Hello florabb,
You may be able to change or reset the password on this old iCloud/Apple ID account, even if you no longer have access to the email address associated with it. Once the password is changed/updated, you should be able to log your iPhone out of the old iCloud/Apple ID account and log in to the correct new account. You may find the information and steps outlined in the following articles helpful:
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
Sign in with a different Apple ID on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

i reset my disabled ipad 2 and it is asking me for the apple id which first set it up but i forgot the password for that apple id and the password/recovery information for the recovery email address. What can i do?
Click here and use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or if you're the device's original owner, take it and its purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store.

Hello everybody
I bought a new iPhone 4 with iOS 6.1.3 installed. When I connected it to itunes for the first time to activate it iTunes asked me to enter the password for an account that the iPhone is locked to like if the device was used before what shall I do? PLease reply soonI can't do that because the device was purchased from United Arab Emirates and I got it as a gift in Syria but the problem is that there is not even a single apple store in Syria so is there another way to fix that, I googled it and was told to jailbreak the device whitch I did and than hacktivated it but the problem is the device doesn't connect to any network and only shows "no service" and the battery draining too fast so is there any other way to fix this issue

A computer illiterate friend created 3 accounts on his iPhone 5 but forgot the passwords. He can't reset the password as his yahoo address is no longer valid. Erasing the phone doesn't solve the issue as the Apple server identifies the hardware as registered. How to register the phone with Apple?
I helped him create a new email address and new iCloud account on my Mac but when we try to register the phone with Apple it says: Maximim accounts limit reached for this device. How can he register the phone? I read different threads and found out that only Apple care can do that. We're in Romania and don't know where to call. Any suggestions on how we fix this?When I checked the support site for Romania, you apparently don't have an Apple Care contact center. You "may" try calling the US Apple care number to verify the account and have the password reset sent to a different email address. 800-694-7466
