HT5621 i have forgotten my Apple password and i go to reset it and the server aint servin. I have had a verification code sent to me 3 times and the page or address is no good and i cant get the code to send the verification. In other words i cant get int

Hey guys, Heres one for you tech guys. It was a false alarm on my password issue. Somehow or another i was going to discuss this issue with this or some other forum. Now ,i aint no hi-tech redneck but i aint stupid either, maybe a little dumb ,but hey. I got to the point where i had to sign in for this disscusion and i thought,CRAP, I cant sign in,i dont know my password. Mind You, I have been dealin with this for a couple of hours and i thought well, 1 more time, it might as well have been 52 times but, it went thru. I might have typed it wrong a couple of times but i typed it most everytime cuz i knew that was it and it is a perty simple password. Beats me. figure that one out. Glitch in the system maybe? Good Luck, Bobby Dawg Goin down low>

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

I have forgotten my password for my keychain. How can I reset it?

If you don't know the keychain password, the only way to reset it is to delete the old keychain and create a new one. See the instructions in Keychain Access Help. (Keychain Access is in the Applications > Utilities folder.) The keychain is encrypted, and the contents cannot be recovered without the original password.

I have forgotten my administrator password and can't find my Mac OS X Install Dvd..what can I do?

I have forgotten my administrator password and can't find my Mac OS X Install Dvd to reset it, what can I do?

OK, try this:
http://osxdaily.com/2010/08/10/forgot-mac-password-how-to-reset-mac-password/
Be very very careful if you decide to use Terminal. Even a small typing error can cause a disaster. And terminal commands must be typed exactly as shown, including spaces.
Good luck.
p.s. Your Apple ID and password - different from the computer log in password - are what you used to get to this discussion.

You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.
You can contact the Apple ID Security folks per the listing in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 and they can help reset security questions and get the account working.

If you're using FileVault, you first have to unlock the startup volume in Disk Utility. Select it and click the Unlock button in the toolbar. Of course, this is only possible if you know another password to unlock the volume. If you don't, follow instead these instructions.

You've checked the spam folder on your rescue email account as well as the inbox, and you've tried clicking the reset link a second time ? If you have, and you still haven't received the email, then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
