Your password was sent to your emergency email address.  Perhaps you have an email you never use?   I use the free email from my cable TV account as my emergency email.
Your Apple account and cloud account are separate.   You could even have completely different user and password.   Most of us use the same user ID and password, but they are not the same thing, don't mix them up.
If you can't retrieve emergency email, you will have to call apple support.

  • Hi, I have a mid 2010 13" MacBook Pro and I keep getting a POSIX error when trying to format my new harddrive. Help?

    Hi guys, one day I turned my MacBook Pro on and it was frozen at the login screen, so I did a hard shutdown and restarted it just to get a blank white screen that didn't change. So I took it to the apple store for a genius appointment and they diagnosed the problem as a failed hard drive. So I got a new hard drive and bought snow leopard installation disc since I didn't have my original installation anymore and installed the new harddrive. I go to disc utility to erase it and create a new partition on it so the Mac will recognize it as a viable option to install snow leopard on, and I get a POSIX error that says: "the operation could not be completed. Cannot allocate memory."
    So I call Apple and I'm told that it could very possible be the hard drive cable which is failing me here and not allowing the connection to the HDD. So I ordered the appropriate one on Amazon for my make and model (can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004VSZCL4/ref=ya_aw_oh_pit)
    A lot of the reviews say a new one of these cables fixed their problems with the POSIX error, so I'm wondering what you guys think of this? And if you have any other ideas that could help out?
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Zach

    Zachy,
    It goes something like this...
    Put your new drive in the enclosure. Use Disk Utility to format it, etc. I'd give it a slightly different name than the original. Let's say you have Old Disk and New Disk as your drive names. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy Old Disk to New Disk. Now you should have an exact copy, which you can test by rebooting and holding down the Option key. Choose New Disk from the list and let it boot, make sure all is well.
    Shut down and physically swap the drives. Take Old Disk and put it in the enclosure. Now your system has a new disk with a lot more space and you can reformat your old disk and just use it for large files or whatever.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    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.

  • I have set form fields as User required and yet the form still prints/save when empty.

    I have set form fields as User required and yet the form still prints/save when empty. I also have an email button on the form but that works correctly by not allowing the user to email the form with the required fields empty.
    What script do I need to additionally restrict both printing and saving if the required fields are empty?
     You would think that just setting that option would restrict those functions the same as it does for the email button. 
    Please be specific with your response if you are gracious enough to offer one. I have been searching the forum all morning for the answer to this and I really didn't understand any of the solutions offered to others enough to use those in my own form.
    The required fields are:
    Social (social security number)
    Name
    Headquarters
    Residence
    The next question I have is if there is a way to make individual signature fields mandatory if they are digital signatures?
     In other words, I don't want the individual to be able to email the form to the next person if he/she hasn't applied their digital signature.

    Saving can always be done, even when mandatory fields are empty.  This is by design.  And that is correct.  Suppose you have a big form and 2 people need to fill it out.  How can you fill out a first part and then send it to the second person without saving.
    Same for printing.  Same for your signature fields.
    What I would do, is to put a "watermark" on the form that you show on preSave and prePrint if the form is incomplete.  Just a static text on your form.  Then the user will see that they need to do more.  Also, on preSave and prePrint, you can show a warning popup to tell the user about the missing fields.  You can then still cancel their action if the user decides not to save/print anyway.

  • HT1420 Why does my computer keep asking to be authorized when i put my iphone on the charger?

    Why does my computer keep asking to be authorized when i put my iphone on the charger?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    See iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization for Macs.
    See How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld for Windows.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • I am trying to connect to apple support and it keeps asking me to put in the SN of my MAC and when i do it says that the SN is invalid I am putting in the SN from under about this mac and it is the same as the one one the bottom of the MAC any ideas ?

    Did you purchase this product direct from Apple online, in an Apple Store, or through a third-party authorized reseller? Or did you buy it from an original owner whose Applecare plan was supposed to be transitioned to a new owner, by them?
    Do you have an original shipping carton the unit arrived in?
    If the product was a retail 'open carton' purchase and no
    back-track is possible, contact the reseller.
    And if the computer had seen a major service with logic
    board replaced, etc, it may have other issues with serial
    number vs one they may have assigned it. Usually a
    new logic board may have the SN flashed or if a unit
    was determined to be a reman, a new # assigned. But
    that would appear in System Profiler, if officially reman.
    If you registered a product anywhere with Apple, it would show on a web page along with its serial numbers, going back several years, at this page after you log in there.
    https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action
    A blue text with triangle See all products and services opens an Apple ID
    sign-in window, then the page changes to show your items & info about them.
    If you run the serial number through online Lookup, what appears?
    http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
    Not sure if this helps, 'your product' should appear - if registered.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Hi Cara154,
    If you are having issues receiving the email verification for your security questions, you may find the following article helpful:
    When you provide a rescue email address during Apple ID creation, you will receive an email from Apple to verify that the email address provided is accurate. If you don't see an email from Apple asking you to verify your rescue email address, you may want to check your SPAM folder. If you still haven't received the email from Apple, you can sign in to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com) to resend your rescue email address. To resend your verification email, click on Password & Security. Then, click the Resend link located in the Rescue Email Address section.

    how do i stop my itunes from changing the location of my itunes media.  i have it saved on a external HD and it keeps changing back to my local drive with out being told

    No, an external drive will not always be mounted. If the drive goes to sleep, it can unmount, or it may unmount for other reasons. As Chris said, confim that the drive is mounted and active before launching iTunes.

    You're welcome.
    Once again, the Find My iPhone app has no effect on this.
    Find My iPhone must be enabled with your iCloud account settings on the iPhone.
    Location Services must be enabled.
    The iPhone must be connected to the internet via an available wi-fi network or via the carrier's cellular network.
    If the iPhone is powered off, none of the Find My iPhone features can work, and the same if the thief or whoever has access to the iPhone has restored the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone on another computer.
