HELP cannot reset 'my account password'

keep getting the same email to reset my password on the 'my account' option but email keeps asking for 'username' repeatedly and cannot get to the option to choose a new password

The advisors have no choice in the matter, they are just pawns in the whole Apple SNAFU that's going on right now. Eventually, someone up top may come to their senses and then they'll be able to reset your IDs for you again.

HT201240 Re: OS X: Changing or resetting an account password (Snow Leopard and earlier)

Can someone help please! I cannot log in to my Mac
Followed these intructions from earlier posts this thread, and got to:
4. Select your Mac OS X hard disk volume. DONE
5. Select the user name of your original administrator account. COULD NOT COMPLETE
- But my original administrator account is not showing. The only option shown for me is "System Administrator (root)".
Luckily I read the note below: Important: Do not select "System Administrator (root)".
So now I wait for further advice...

HT1911 i cannot find my account password, i tried to receiving e-mail but there is no answer from itunes store.

i cannot find my account password, i tried to receiving e-mail but there is no answer from itunes store.
my account's e-mail has a word '+' for using multiple account to accessing another country's store.
for example. 1. [email protected] 2. [email protected] 3. [email protected]
like this.
so, i forgot it. but there is no way to find my password.
and i couldn't find any answer for this situation.
i think there is a problem that my account has + word. so maybe apple's automatic answering system does not work with that.
please help me. thank you.

What account password? Are you saying you change the password to your Hotmail email account?
If so did you make the changes on your iphone in message settings?

Reset Blackberry Account Password

Hi
I am attempting to log into my blackberry account for the App World. However i cannot remember my password or answer to the secret question. is there another way to reset my password.
Thanks in advance
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You have to remember either the BlackBerryID password, or the secret question answer. Without either, you're stuck.
Your choices are:
--Use another email account to create an entirely new BlackBerryID (with which you will lose access to any purchased apps using the "forgotten" first BlackBerryID, or
--Find the initial email you were sent to confirm the initial BlackBerryID, and in it is a link to click to cancel and delete the account. Click on that, delete the account and then you can use that same email to create an entirely new account.
Good luck.
You can create and reset your BlackBerryID Password from this link:

Retrieving/resetting my account password for MacBook Air OS X 10.9.4 when FileVault is NOT switched on?

Hey all,
I've encountered a major problem since purchasing my MacBook Air OS X Mavericks 10.9.4. As I was previously using a Pro with an account password that used to work just fine, I decided to simply set the Air with the same credentials. However, the password I have no recollection of changing is not accepted by my Air. Without it I cannot install any new software and I need several programs urgently. Trouble is, my FileVault is not switched on nor can it be switched on. I cannot reset the password either, as doing so requires me to type in my current one.
What do I do?
Kind regards,
Elena

If you're not using FileVault 2, then FileVault 2 is not involved. Either use your Apple ID to reset your password, or Method 1 here should get your password reset to one you know.

Reset iCloud Account Password

I'm trying to help my mother-in-law reset her iCloud Password.
When you go to iForgot it gives the email option, but she never gets an e-mail to any of her accounts,
or a security question option, to which no one knows the answer.
... is there any way to get it reset?
Thanks!

If you are sure that your reset email is not being filtered out, then I suggest you contact Apple at Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)

Cannot reset PRAM/firmware password

My Mac Pro 1.1 running 10.6.4 will not respond to start up commands. I cannot reset PRAM or use the "C" key to start up from the CD drive. I have not set a firmware password, when I opened Firmware Utility there was no password. What am I missing here? np

Swapping an Nvidia for ATI in XP be sure to uninstall the device driver etc before you put the new graphic card in, though if you've used XP a bit you probably know.
Even marginal FBDIMMs have been known to be cantankerous though if you have ruled everything down to the graphic card being the culprit.
(2gb x 8) and restarted with one module at a time and the next to last of course was the one that created the blinking light. It has been going bad for some time in retrospect since the Mac is faster with 12 gb than it was with 16.
Marginal RAM and not reporting full density (showing half for instance), and 4 x 4GB is the "ideal" way to get to 16GB on Mac Pro 1,1.
One issue with marginal RAM even though it is ECC you can end up with corrupt files or file content (meaning it won't show up as a corrupt file, just the file or pref or cache contents are well, "garbage in / garbage out." And need to be replaced or restored from back prior to problem(s).
Putting more/all of your hardware configuration in .sig helps. Whether you had 7300GT, 1st gen 8800GT, X1900, along with 8 x 2GB and anything else.

Reset @me account password

Hello,
My dad recently switched back from his iPhone 4s to his old iPhone 4 and wanted to transfer all his contacts and notes. Everything went fine except for the notes. I noticed that on his iphone 4s the icloud account was an @me.com account which i assumed is where all his notes were synced to (since apparently we cant sync to his regular @hotmail apple ID). I deleted the @me account because we couldnt figure out what the password was but asked to keep all data on the iphone so that we could create a new icloud account and sync the supposedly saved notes. However, after deleting the account, all of the notes were gone! I've been trying to figure out the @me account password in order to sign back in and hopefully get back all the lost notes but I cant seem to do so. When trying to do so via security questions it says that the birth date is incorrect and when I try via email I dont receieve anything. How can i recover the @me account to get all his notes back??
Thanks

If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

All support replies refer to ISP access password. What I need is access to Thunderbird program account password. This only seems to show itself when beginning account. ??

Thunderbird only has one password and it is optional. You would have to activate that feature. It is the master password. You can read about it here.
