  • ICloud accidentally set-up with erroneous email acct. How do I reset the email originally used to start the Apple ID? I'm stuck in a loop...

    Hi Apple friends! Here's my frustrating situation. When I got the new computer (2012 Macbook Pro), I tried to set up iCloud but accidentally input an erroneous email acct. I cannot access iClod because the email was accidentally input as "[email protected]", not "[email protected]". How do I reset the email originally used to start the Apple ID? I'm stuck in a loop, and not only cannot use iCloud, but I keep getting messages popping up to register my iCloud with a non-existent email...
    Help?
    Sincerely,

    Have you tried to go into System Preferences > iCloud and entering the correct information there? You will first have to "sign out" of the wrong account and then log in with the correct information.
    If that does not work you should direct follow up to the iCloud for Mac forum.

  • 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 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.

  • 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 my password for an account I cannot access?

    I noticed a checkmark next to an extra account that I added. I am the administrator, and I forgot my password for that account.I tried looking it up in my keychain program to no avail. Can you help me access this account so that I can delete it or reset my password?
    Chris

    If you are an administrator of this mac you should be able to:
    Goto System Preferences > Accounts
    Unlock Pane
    Select the noted account.
    Reset Password or Just delete the account.
    Works for me anyway.
