    Hi karen615,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    If you cannot reset your Apple ID password via security questions, you can reset via email authentication. If you are not receiving the email, it may be necessary to contact Apple Support using the link in the Get help section toward the bottom of the article.

    Hi bertram.thoninh,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This article can help with resetting your password and security questions:
    Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    However, if you're not able to receive email to your rescue email address, you may need to contact iTunes Store Support:
    You'll need to contact iTunes Store support to have your questions and answers reset.
    After your password, security questions and answers are reset, I'd recommend providing a different rescue email address:
    You can edit or delete your rescue email address at My Apple ID. To edit your rescue email address:
    Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
    Click "Manage your account"
    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    Click Password & Security
    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    All the best,
    Jeremy

  • My daughter locked herself out of her ipod.  She can't remember the password and now we are locked out.  How can I get back in or restore it after she forgot her password?

    My daughter forgot her password on her iphone and we cant get it unlocked.  Is there a way to bypass her password or restore the phone so she can use it again?

    Did this back along to mine. Plug it into itunes on your pc (or Mac) and click on the ipod icon on the left hand side. When the device options come up on the main screen, click on restore. Follow the steps and it should restore to factory settings. If you had icloud activated on the ipod all previous purchases should be in the cloud and ready to download onto the ipod afte rit has been restored to factory settings, otherwise you'll have to download them all again. Hope it helped.

  • I deleted my old email address and now I can't acess icloud because I can't remember my password to the icloud account.  It is not allowing me to log in obviously and now my old email is showing under the settings now do i need to reset the iphone?

    I deleted my old email account and when i went to change everything on my iphone it still shows the old email even though i created a new apple id.  I also can't remember the password and now can't access icloud.  Do i need to reset the phone?

    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 AppleCare(or 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.

  • I'm trying to restore my 3GS but can't remember the password, I don't want to do a complete restore as I'll lose all my data. HELP!!

    I'm trying to restore my 3GS from a previous back-up point on my PC, but I can't remember the password and if I wrote it down I can't find it. I don't want to do a complete factory restore as I'll lose all my data (phone numbers etc) and I still won't be able to access the restore data. Can anyone help?

    If you forgot the passcode for the lock screen, follow this article, connect in recovery mode iOS: Unable to update or restore and restore:  iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    If you can't remember the password for your encrypted backup, you'll have to start all over again:
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    iTunes and encrypted backups
    In the iTunes Summary screen, select "Encrypt iPhone backup" if you want to encrypt the information stored on your computer when iTunes makes a backup. Encrypted backups are indicated by a padlock icon, and a password is required to restore the information to iPhone. You may want to write down the password for your backup and store it in a safe place. If you use a Mac, when you set a password you can select to store the password in the keychain. With iOS 4 and later, you can transfer the iOS keychain backup to a new device if you encrypt the backup.
    Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
    If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.

  • My child locked me out of my ipod and now can't remember the password.  How do I get it without hurting the ipod?

    My child thought it would be funny to lock my ipod touch.  Now he can't remember the password and I am locked out.  How do I fix this?  Is there a reset button? 

    Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes.  If the iPod asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or if you do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore.  For recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
