How to reset the Apple ID password when the emails are not received and the security questions not right?

My foolish husband put his apple password on a website. Apple has suspended his account. He is not getting the reset password emails and the security questions are not the ones he used. We live in Malawi where there is no phone support access. How can he contact apple by chat or email (through a different account) to start getting his emails back?

Hey Debbie,

It sounds like your husband’s Apple ID was disabled, so he tried to reset the password for the account and hasn’t received the password reset email. Take a look at the article linked below, it provides troubleshooting tips that will resolve most issues receiving password reset emails.

    Did the email contain your name? Never click on a link in an email like that and do no enter any personal info after clicking in an email.
    There have been quite a few people getting these emails. They are a phishing attempt to get your personal info.

  • How to reset your Apple ID password. Scam?? Phish??

    The following message has been sent to me 4 times in the last 3 weeks. I have not responded, clicked thru but i have tried to report it to Apple. I have looked at the header and I see the word "apple" in there but the rest is a lot of nonsense to me. I have made no changes to my Apple ID or done anything that would prompt this message. Is someone trying to Phish me or is Apple doing random checks???
    Dear (my name),
    To reset your Apple ID password, simply click the link below. That will take you to a web page where you can create a new password.
    Please note that the link will expire three hours after this email was sent.

    Questions? There are lots of answers on our Apple ID support page >
    If you weren't trying to reset your password, don't worry — your account is still secure and no one has been given access to it. Most likely, someone just mistyped their email address while trying to reset their own password.

  • How do you reset an apple ID password, when you can't remember (or reset) the password of the linked account?

    Hello!
    Finally got around to restoring the settings on our old iPhone 4ses, however, in order to do so for my husband's old phone, we need to turn off 'find my iphone'.  The problem is that he cannot remember his apple ID password (and never set up the security profile in its entirety, so no good there), nor can he remember the password of the linked email address (which is an apple one).
    Does anyone know how to go about remedying it?  Sure, you can request a new password, which is sent to the account linked to your apple account, but what if there's no way to access the linked account (or reset that email accounts password, as it is an icloud account and redirects you to the reset apple ID site)?  It's driving me nuts!
    I hope this makes sense - am feeling less than thrilled right now.
    Thanks in advance.
    cheers
    Zoe

    Thanks for that, Roger.  I had tried to access support through their website, but kept getting a message along the lines of 'no solution found'.
    For reasons unknown, I decided to update the software on the phone, and was then able to restore settings that way.  Weird, but I'm happy that I didn't have to resort to violence towards the phone!
    Thanks again.
    cheers

  • How to reset my apple id password if i never received the email from system?

    i forget my apple id password and tried to reset it by email, but i never received the email from the system, how can i do??

    If you haven't received the email, and you've checked the spam folder on the account (if you have a rescue email address on your iTunes account then you've checked that email account as well ?) and tried requesting the email again, then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it for you : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

  • I have two iphones one is my wifes and one is mine when i have and update its asking for me to enter the apple id password for her email..... can someone please help me????

    when i have an update my iphone 5s is asking for my wifes apple id password for her iphone5..... this is very frustrating because i cant update my apps....can someone help please?

    Under whose Apple ID were the apps that you are referring to purchased? If they are displaying her Apple ID and asking for her password when you are trying to update them, then that means they were purchased under her ID. They will continue to do that unless you delete them and purchase them again under your own Apple ID.

    Email authentication: To access your information, we will send an email to the address(es) on file for you.
    Answer security questions: To access your information, you will need to answer the security question(s) provided when you originally created your Apple ID.

    Email authentication: To access your information, we will send an email to the address(es) on file for you.
    It successfull to reset, But I do not receive email from Apple. Please help my I phone can't active when I upgrade version.

    First, try the new password.  If you didn't sign out of iCloud prior to changing the primary email address of your Apple ID, this is what can cause this problem.

  • HT1420 HOW do i get Apple to understand that i have a big family and my kids do not have credit cards or their own apple id so i have more than 5 computers?

    I just spent over 2
    $2000 on the new iPhone 5 for myself and my wife, we sitll use the other iphone4's  that we have with other numbers and as we have a big family we have 7 computers that all need to work with itunes. We also have 5 ipads and i was thinking of getting another one but because of this problem the two new iphones and my macbook pro are usles devices when it comes to music and syncing is impossable... My kids do not have there own apple id as it needs a credit card, which they do NOT have. They are kids. so how can i get iTunes to allow me to get more computers online. I just bought an new/ refurbushed 17" mackbookpro as my old one was dropped and still works but do not want to take a chance for my work... anyway iTunes will not let me use this computer with iTunes either... AAAHHHHH I do not want to authorize and de-authorize computers as i use them and it looks like that is not possible anyway based on their statment that htis can only be done twice a year... HELP PLEASE. Thanks Richrd

    The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
    You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...
