How do I reset a password for one of my sub accoun...

I have 2 sub accounts, one for my wife's use and one for my daughters. My daughter has forgotten her password so I want to reset it for her but NOT delete the account. When I follow the "help" on this subject it takes me to a page like "Manage my sub accounts" but the only options I am given are create a new sub account or delete a current one?

What you need to do is go further up the page (that gives you the option to delete or create a new one) and Click "Change my Password".
You may have to login again to your primary account.
On the next screen that opens you change the email address to that of your daughter and then click forgotten password.
When asked for the email address again use your daughters.
The security questions however are for your primary account.
Not obvious I agree.

How do I reset GateKeeper policy for one app?

Hi, My system policy is set to 'Mac App store and identified developers'. I used right-click/Open to run an app. How do I reset the policy for that one app so that it won't open if I double-click on it?
Is there a place that lists all the apps that I've overridden the policy for?

Back up all data.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Select the text on the line below by dragging across it. Don't include the blank space at the end of the line.
sudo spctl --disable
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Click anywhere in the Terminal window, then paste (command-V). Press the space bar.
Now switch to the Finder and and select the application in question. Drag it into the Terminal window. More text will be added to what you entered.
Click in the Terminal window to activate it, then press return.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
You can then quit Terminal.

How do i reset the password for cisco DMM 5.1 hardware machine

Dear All,
I have a cisco DMM 5.1 with some players installed on it, I can login to the dmm 5.1 via web browser but I cannot login the hardware directly through the console, I dont have the password for the console access, Could any one please help me resetting the password for the cisco DMM 5.1 physica server keeping the data and the configuration on the server intact.?
Please help!!

Dear Fahad,
If you have lost your "admin" account password, it can be recovered using the "pwadmin" account as documented at the following link:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_4/dms/aai/administration/guide/pwadmin.html#wp1079466
If you have lost your "pwadmin" password as well, you'll need to open a TAC case and get a "DMS 5.1 pwadmin reset" ISO image via TAC. You can then boot the appliance with the provided CD to reset the "pwadmin" password, then login as "pwadmin" and reset the "admin" password from there.

How do i reset the password for secure photo video by Easy to Use Apps?

I have recently upgraded to the newer versions of the free product and am no longer able to log in to the program. I believe the new version moved from a simple 4-number password to a complex scheme. However, I can't find any tutorial on how to change to the new system and there is no support for the company (I end up at some web domain sale site when clicking the line in iTunes Store)

If you haven't already done so then you can reset the password for your iTunes account via http://iforgot.apple.com, and after doing that log out of the account on your iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it. And similarly if using the account for iCloud then Settings > iCloud > Sign Out and then log back in
You say that you 'have a new account', if you have created a new iTunes account then all of your downloads from your old account will remain tied to your old account, so only that account can potentially redownload those purchases for free and/or download updates to its apps.

My daughter can not remember her ipad password. Went into itunes to reset her password and it wants a password which we do not have!!!!! How do we reset a password for her ipad?

Have a disabled ipad due to my daughter can not remember her password. Went into itunes to reset password and it says we need a password....which we do not have. How do we reset her password?

Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. If you have IOS-7, read this.

HT204053 How do I reset a password for an inactive email address (Apple ID)

I have forgotten the password associated with my iCloud Apple ID. The email associated with that account was deactivated by the ISP over a year ago. All of the security questions were either never answered, or are wrong (including my date of birth!!). How can I get into my account? There doesn't seem to be a way in this situation.

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.
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.

How do you reset a password for an email account that I don't have anymore?

My email address for my original i-pod is not in use anymore and I can't get it back. I can't remember the secret question and having them send a temporary password to the old email address is useless. I have the music from my i-pod in my i-tunes library, but can't play any of it becuase it keeps asking me to authorize it.

How do I reset a password for an old id

There are three apps purchased with an old ID. When we go to update them, we are asked to enter the password for this old ID however we have lost the password. I've read all the posts where apps are linked to the old ID and the easiest solution seems to be to delete the app and repurchase under the new ID. But I can't really proceed as we have lost the password for the old ID. When you are in updates in the App Store, it asks you to log in but doesn't give you an option to request a password reset.
Do I need to change my Apple ID back to the old ID but then tap the forgot button? Or?

Thanks, that helped but the problem goes a bit deeper. Btw, I volunteer at a seniors computer literacy group and this is an issue one of my seniors is having. The email in question is her @icloud.com email. We tried resetting the password but didn't know how to receive an email and didn't know the answer to the security question. We can call apple security on that but it seems an odd wrinkle that it is the iCloud account. We deleted the free apps and reloaded them under her proper ID. All is well there but she has four more apps purchased under the iCloud ID, each cost $9.99 so I'd like to resolve this without having to repurchase. She strictly uses her ipad but could put itunes on her computer at home and sync if really needed. (we don't typically go to their houses). Any ideas greatly appreciated.
