How can I recover my icloud address?
It's been over a year since I last used my icloud address. I cannot recall it and I don't know where to get the help to recover it. I need my icloud address to be able to activate my iPhone 5, I've tried everything, I've tried to get help with an Apple Rep on chat but when I try, it says that my iphone is out of warranty and I would need to pay $29.00 just to chat with an Apple Representative. My iphone is not broken, I just forgot the addresses that I had used when I first activated the iPhone several months ago. I just need to know where to go and how to recover my icloud address, so that I can re-activate my iphone 5. Please help and thank you.
Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Find your Apple ID'.

If i know email ( but i dont have acces to it ) and i dont have secret questions how can i recover my icloud account ?
I'n my company ( pawn shop ) i hope i transleted fine , i bought an iphone wich it seems to be ok at the first time.
That was on 26.11.2013 ( as can be seen in my pawn contract and billing ) . after 2 weeks i found a client to buy my second hand iphone and the i saw my mistake it is icloud blocked i need that password so i can reset the iphone to sell it. how can i manage this problem ? i can provide all my billings, contracts, society data everything.If you know the primary email linked to the account but do not have access to it or the answers to the security questions, then the next best thing to do is call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask for Account Security. They will ask you for two pieces of information from the account in order to unlock it. The options are usually the security questions (each question counts as one piece), the credit card linked to the account, and either a device serial number or device verification code that they will send you.
After this verification is complete they can send the reset link for your password to any email you choose. Please be aware that if they verify you with something other than two security questions, there is a 24 hour wait before the email arrives.
Good luck! -

Hello MeaganJ
Check out the article below for further information on changing the email address for your Apple ID. Note that if it is an email address ending in @icloud.com you cannot change it.

Firefox crashes when I open it (Mac system). How can I recover all websites's addresses in my bookmarks before trying to installing again firefox?
== Crash ID(s) ==
c427216d-8a2f-8b48-beca-50074acfbc6b
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_4; it-it) AppleWebKit/533.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/533.16Yes, all your personal information is stored in your profile folder.
Again, see [[Backing up your information]] to manually back up your profile folder. That article also has information on what information is stored where (e.g. Places.sqlite for bookmarks and history).
So back that up manually, uninstall Firefox, and remove the profile folder. Then you should be able to do a completely clean install and then restore your settings accordingly. -
I need to activate my iPad3 after I reset it to factory settings. it informs me that it is linked to an Apple ID that I used to set it up when I bought it 4
years ago. I cannot remember whether it was icloud or gmail. How can I recover that Apple ID? It will not activate with my present apple id.If he doesn't remember the password or the Security Questions, he will have to contact Apple Support to have the Security Questions reset so the password can be reset:

How can i recover my icloud account
Is there a way to recover my icloud account?
More detail would be nice, I have a feeling that you were editing something and you may have turned something on or off, you say recover, as in your backup is gone, and if so did your phone reset?
Once more information is provided I can possibly provide more info.
Best of luck! -
How can I change my icloud address and pass word ( not Apple ID)
I am trying to sync music on my iphone and it doesn't back up while syncing and when done there is a problem with the new music and it has a small cloud next to all the tracks that aren't playing and I dont have the info for my old icloud I had created. Plzhelp
Your personal iCloud account has nothing to do with this. Your ability to sync music to your device is based on your computer being authorized for the ID used to purchase it. When you sync, that authorization transfers to your device as well. There is a limit on the number of different IDs your device can be authorized for. I believe the number is 5. That is, you can have media on your device that was purchase from no more than 5 different IDs.
If that isn't the issue, try posting over in the iTunes forum. They can probably help you figure out what the syncing issue is.
Changing your iCloud ID and password won't help with this issue. Also, just as an FYI, an iCloud ID is also an Apple ID, and you change it the same way you change any other Apple ID. -
How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas
I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option? -
i have updated my iphone 5s to iOS8 but it has my old icloud account, how can i change the icloud email address as i can not get passed this page??
I do not know the log in details and no longer have that icloud email address !!
please help :-(That's Activation Lock. You will need to remember the Apple ID and password you used to set up the phone.
If you can't remember them, you can go to iforgot.apple.com to try to recover the information.
If you are the original owner of the phone & have proof of purchase, you can try calling Apple to see if they can assist also.

I have an iCloud account that is different from my apple account. How can I recover the forgotten password
Hello Bgenie
If you have forgotten the password to that Apple ID, then go to My Apple ID and you will see and option to reset your password. You will need to answer the security questions or if you have a rescue email address set up you can get it sent to that email to reset the password. Check out the article for more information.

my document.numbers can not be opened how can i recover the version from yesterday? i was not using time machine and it was not in icloud. is there an app i can buy that might help
Thanks Andy,
I wish I could have told my sister about this as she could not open my homepage back before my new iWeb site. She now can open my site without the yet in case denial window does appear = I thank you.
I think my iWeb site works as Noone has said otherwise from any platform etc...

I do agree that should not have to be a consideration for any users so i agree that it would be great if Apple could allow simplicity to run seemlessly.
I have had this problem since Homepage, and here is
what has worked for me. I send out the link, and
then for PC users I send the link with "<" after the address (without quotation
marks. e.g., <http://site.com>).
I also put a note that if that doesn't work, to just
copy and paste the link into a browser. With that I
have only had 1 person say they still can't open.
Everyone else gets it to work.
It's a lot to do and seems like a hassle, but you get
used to it.
Hope this helps!
Andy Martini
PS - APPLE! When are you going to fix this??! It
seems like such a small thing yet you guys have been
stumped for YEARS on this! -

I really don't know what happened to Pages. First I was using the app, working on a document and everything was fine. I updated it a couple of times and there was no problem. Then, when I tried to open it once more snd continue to work with it, a message appeared telling me that the document had been modified in other iPad. Usually this would make sense but not this time because this file was only used on my iPad. So I chose to keep the document version created on my iPad and **** got loose since then. The document could't open, every time I tried, a message told me "The file cannot be open", so I read A LOT of what to do in this horrible case and tried to open it via iTunes but the option withbthe little arrow that usually works for send the file via e-mail, or to dropbox, or to print appear like I can't use it for anything so most of my options and hopes died. Then on a Mac I tried to dowñoad the file to see if there I could open it or at least change the file code from .pages to .zip and then unzip it but I can't even dowload it form iCloud so you see, I'm desperate. I need help, please! The document is very very important so could you tell me how can I recover it?
Having the same issue, can someone please enlighten us?
