How can i find my apple id that activates my ipod?

Ok so I have an IPod 5th generation I got maybe 2 years ago for my birthday and then for Christmas I got an IPhone 5s. Well Im giving away my IPod so i decided to reset it but then it asks for my apple id i used to set my IPod up with. I used a different apple id for my phone so of course i forgot what my password was. I looked at the email i used for my old apple id and everything but i cant find the password. I also forgot the security questions and everything! someone please help

Is there a way to find my Apple ID Name if I can't remember it?
Yes. Visit My Apple ID and click Find your Apple ID. See Finding your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. See Changing your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.
Also if you know of apps in your iTunes library purchased with that ID right click on an app and select Get Info. With iTunes 12 the purchaser is listed under File. For earlier versions is is under a different heading I think

  • How can i find the apple id that was used to purchase a computer?

    Someone else in our company purchased a MacBook Air online. He said that when he went through the purchasing process he selected 'Guest' and didn't create an Apple ID. He used a company credit card to pay, which *may* have had an Apple ID associated with it (but I don't think so since it's a fairly new card).
    The new computer is one day old.  I'm setting it up for the user; but when I go to the 'App Store >  Updates' I'm unable to update 'Pages.' It prompts me for an Apple ID.  I've typed in several that are in use here, but I get the error "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
    Similarly, if I go to store.apple.com to look up the Order Number for this computer, I am prompted for an Apple ID (even though I have the order number).
    I realize this may not be the right place to post this, but I can't for the life of me find a generic 'Apple Store' (not for Apps) or 'Apple ID' community.  If someone can point me to a more appropriate community, I'll be happy to repost...

    I'm being prompted for both Apple ID and password, if that's what you're asking...
    I went to System Preferences > App Store and it shows "You are signed in as <myAppleID> in the App Store."  So I went back to the 'App Store > Updates' to update Pages using my Apple ID/passwd, I get the error message "this update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
    This is a brand new computer, so whose Apple ID is associated with Pages? ...ab

  • How can I find what apple ID I used to register my iMac when I first booted up? I am being told that by using this ID I will be able to go on to the App store and down load iPhoto at no cost. Is this true? My iMac does not have iPhoto resident on it now

    How can I find what apple ID I used to register my iMac when I first booted up? I am being told that by using this ID I will be able to go on to the App store and down load iPhoto at no cost. Is this true? My iMac does not have iPhoto resident on it now and I only purchased my new iMac in December 2012
    Thanks....

    Launch Keychain Access and click on Login in the left hand pane and then on Passwords.  Next do search for Apple in the search field at the top and click on Apple ID Authenicication in the list that comes up.  That will give you the ID no. and password.

  • My iMac is authorised to play iTunes content, but my Apple TV keeps asking for me to authorise. I am unable to view content from my iTunes Library. How can I convince my Apple TV that I am authorised?

    My iMac is authorised to play iTunes content, but my Apple TV keeps asking for me to authorise and I am unable to view content from my iTunes Library. How can I convince my Apple TV that I am authorised?

    I am not exactly sure what you mean by "authorised", but I am experiencing a similar problem...or the same, in that Apple TV keeps telling me to enable home sharing in my MacBook Pro. It does not seem to recognize that home sharing is already enabled on my Laptop.
    Is home sharing and "authorised" one in the same? It used to work just fine before these recent Apple TV updates.

  • Hi , my iphone was stolen how can I find it , I didn't  activate ( find my iphone ) but I have the iPhone serial number ?

    Hi , my iphone was stolen how can I find it , I didn't  activate ( find my iphone ) but I have the iPhone serial number ?
    please help me or tell me how can I restor me pictures from icloud ?

    You're welcome.  If you mean how does iCloud help you recover your photos, it can help in one of two ways:
    First, if you have an iCloud backup of your stolen phone, you can restore a replacement phone or another iOS deivce to your iCloud backup.  This would restore the photos from the backup to the device, along with your other data and settings.  You restore to an iCloud backup during the initial device setup.  If the device is already set up your have to erase it by going to Settings>General>Reset and tapping Erase All Content and Settings, then go back through the initial setup screens, and when given the option choose Restore from iCloud Backup.
    If your photos were in your photo stream, you can either sync another iOS device with your iCloud account and turn on photo stream, or you can sync your computer with your iCloud account and turn on photo stream, as outlined here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html.  This would allow you to access any photos that still remain in your photo stream.  (However, photos are only saved in photo stream for 30 days.  Any photos older than 30 days would be lost.)

  • How can I change the Apple ID that appears on my iPod Touch? It's not the correct ID.

    Somehow the email address that appears as my Apple ID when opening my iPod Touch (5th gen) is not my correct email address/Apple ID.  How can I change my Apple ID withing my Touch so I can access apps?

    You might have to transfer purchases to your account. If its signed in on a different account. Or,
    1. Go to iTunes on your iPod.
    2. Click music and scroll down to the bottom on your iPod.
    3. It should show the apple ID that's signed in, and press it and choose sign out.
    4. Then click sign in and it should work.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT5622 How can I switch the Apple ID that iCloud uses, if my previous Apple ID no longer works?

    One of my family members got a new iPhone and set it up with the same apple ID that the rest of my family uses. Now we can no longer use this apple ID. We have tried changing the password but the security questions will not accept the correct answers and the authorization email will not send. I can't delete the iCloud account on my phone because you need the old account's password to deactivate find my iphone.

    Cancel my question, please. I found the answer: delete the account, enter the new Apple ID and save data to device and merge data, and create a new account.
