How do i reset the password in an account where the email address is no longer valid

I have an itunes account where the email address used is no longer valid and I also forgot the password.
I cannot choose the "forgot the password" option because the email notification will be sent to the email address that is no longer valid.
Is there an itunes administrator I can contact?
Thanks.

HT4847 I have an old icloud account on my iPad wish to delete the email address in no longer valid and I can't remember the password how do I delet it

Looking for help deleting an old icloud account the email address is no long valid I thought I changed this and deleted it previously but the iOS 7 update brought it back and won't let me delet any suggestions

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must use the previous owner's password to get permission to use the device. If you cannot get the password your father put on the iPad you will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

Reporting abuse on Skype's main email address is no longer valid. How can I report now?

Today, I tried to report my case on [e-mail removed for privacy and security] but an automated reply was sent to me from microsoft saying: "Thanks for contacting Skype.This email message cannot be delivered because the email address is no longer valid.For support please click here" I clicked the link, it redirected me to http;//www.support.skype.com. When I browsed it, I came to this page: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA1170/how-do-i-contact-skype-customer-service I clicked the "support request page" and it doesn't work. Instead, I was redirected to this link: http://support2.microsoft.com/common/errors/ServerGeneric.htm saying: The page you were looking for is currently not available. The address may not be correct, or there may be a temporary problem with this site. Please try one of the following options:Check the address for typing errors.Click the Back button and try a different option from the navigation menu.Try this page again later.I am really desperate to report that someone is using my name on Skype and I know who he is because he sent me a message and tried to add me. Now, I am using a new Skype account so he can't bother me anymore. If anyone can help me, please don't hesitate to shoot a comment here.

Hi, sleepyberry, and welcome to the Community, Adding my work-around instructions here, as well, not realizing you had posted a similar question on another thread (topic). Yes, Skype no longer uses generic or central e-mail addresses for its customer service and support; Skype now uses a web-form format instead. Skype is aware of lingering website issues that can occur when people attempt to contact Skype Customer Service. Temporarily enabling scripts, pop-up dialog boxes, and disabling plug-ins which could prohibit pop-ups may help get past website problems. Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
If you still experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser and choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented.
Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.
Last and not least, when you reach the last step of the process, remember to click on the "Start Chat" link when you are provided the choice of visiting the Community or starting an instant message chat with a customer service agent.

Elaine

You won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

How to retrieve forgotten password?

I have an ipod touch 4th generation and have forgotten the password.
It was disabled after trying more than six times to access correct code.
Now it is unlocked after I have connected it to itunes...but is still asking me for password and I have entered 3 wrong ones so far.
What can I do to retrieve the password?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Had to change my Apple ID because the original email address is no longer valid. How do I change the iCloud user name on iMac? I found instructions about signing out of iCloud and signing back end. It asks questions about contact, etc.

Had to change Apple ID due to email address no longer valid. Trying to change id for icloud...saw direction online about signing out of icloud and signing back in...when it ask questions about contacts, photos, etc. being deleted how do I answer those? That just sort of freaks me out.

For the ones that give you an option, select the option you want (keep on the Mac or Delete). For the ones that are simply warning you, click on Delete from Mac.
They will all come back when you sign back on, since all you did was change your existing Apple ID to a new email address. It's the same iCloud account, just with a different name.
It's the only way to get your updated ID signed onto iCloud.
Cheers,

Changed Apple ID email Ok,however old email still linked to iCloud lost that login password and can't retrieve or change it because that old email address is not active anymore.

Hi all,
I had to change ISP and therefore I had to change my email address.
Did that easily for my Apple ID for both iTunes, iPhone and iPad.
However the email address for the iCloud somehow stayed attached to my old dead email account.
I can't delete the account off the iPad for some reason it still comes up with the old email address for the Apple ID.
I can't get an email sent to rectify it as it's dead! I can't reset it as my current Apple ID password is incorrect for that old email address.
Any ideas on how to rectify the issue?
Thanks.

If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
