How can I retrieve a password which is sent to my @me which I don't have the password to?
My son lost his iPod and we can't remember his Apple ID password to go to Find My IPod. The password reset function sends a link to his @me email which he never used and of course doesn't have the password to... What do do?
If you didn't add a rescue email address and your me address is your primary address, Try contacting Apple using Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)

I have an iCloud email and Yahoo email on my iPhone that is now old as hacked and unused. I can't access anything as it asks for that account info and I don't remember the password etc. How do I delete and replace it with my new iPad email? ! Help..
Welcome to the Apple community.
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. -
My iPhone 4S (iOS8) is locked to ex's iCloud account (but to my credit card!). I don't have the password. How can I change it to my new iCloud account?
My phone shows my name plus iCloud old iCloud account. My kids' new iPads show my name plus my new iCloud account. But both accounts show my children as "family" associated with them.
Basically, I need to change the iCloud account on my phone to my new one. But I'm not given that option.
Help and thanks.Hi and thanks. The password on the old iCloud account doesn't work and my ex-husband says he doesn't know what it is -- and that he's not getting emails to reset the password. I tried using the rescue questions and even the birthdate isn't working. I think he's changed it to keep me out, but it's charging my credit card account.

How can i access my sons laptop computer to set up security if i don't know his password'
How can i access my sons laptop computer to set up security if i don't know his password?
If you have your own admin account on his computer, then you don't need to access his account. However, what type of security do you mean? If you mean network security then that is done in the router, not the computer. If you are referring to Parental Controls those need to be configured via an admin account - either his or yours.

How can I retrieve my deleted text messages from my iPhone 5s? I don't sync to a computer, only to iCloud. My last backup was 2/19/14.
Unless you had them backed up somewhere, I'm afraid they are gone.

So I have an iphone and for some reason I don't know the password for my Apple ID so I can't download apps and I don't have the password to my email to change it and I don't know the secret questions , what can I do to make a new Apple ID ?
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 can't change my Apple ID on my iPhone because I don't have the password for my old Apple ID which the system requires. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Perhaps if you visited the "Manage My Apple ID" site you could recover the password to the old Apple ID.

How do I get rid of an old icloud account that was hacked and i don't have the password for?
I was hacked awhile back and had to change to a new email. i was able to change my itunes account over but my icloud did not come over to the new account.
I can not delete or change the old icloud account because I don't have the password for it. what can i do to fix this?Use the Settings app to sign out of the old ID and sign in with the new one.
Settings > iTunes and App Store > tap on the Apple ID > Sign Out > then sign in with the correct Apple ID.
Not that all apps purchased or downloaded with the old Apple ID will require the old ID and password in order to be updated. To avoid this delete all apps associated with the old ID and download them again with the new ID. Be aware that you will most likely lose data associated with deleted apps and you will have to pay again for any apps that have a fee. -

How can I download a You Tube video and place in a Keynote presentation. We have the permission of the videographer and have downloaded Get Tube at his (videographer) suggestion. Thank you.
Did you check the home page setting?
*Firefox > Preferences > General > Startup: Home page
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
You can also check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

How can I download Micosoft Office 2008 for Mac on my new Macbook Air? I have the DVD and product key
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You have two options:
1. If you have another Mac or PC, use Remote Disc to install it on your Mac > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5287
2. Buy an external optical drive and use it to install Microsoft Office.
Both options work correctly. If you are going to use the optical drive once, use Remote Disc, but it will be much slower than using an optical drive connected to the computer -
Lost iPhone 4, bought iPhone 5, would like to transfer backup to new iPhone 5 from last synch with computer but don't have the password.
What password? Did you encrypt your backup & now can't remember the encrypted backup passcode? If so, no, you won't be able to use that backup. If on a Mac, & you elected to save the passcode to your Keychain, you can recover it from that. Otherwise, you'll have to delete the backup. The data is unrecoverable.
Or, are you talking about the iPhone passcode? -
So I just bought a used MacBook from Amazon with OSX 10.5.8. I am trying to install new software and operating system, but I don't have the passwords to the Users set up in the computer. What do I do?
Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password. After resetting the password use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for startup and restart.
