I believe someone is trying to get into my apple account, what should i do?

For a while now about 2 months i have been recieving apple requests to reset my password every day or so twice at random times... for a while i have ignored it but now iam very suspicious that someone is trying to access me apple account, noone, not even my relitives know my email address for apple anyway, i'am very worried that someone is at large constantly attepting to get into my account. i have changed my passwords so it's even longer for extra security and updated my questions, what should i do if these request persist?

  • Someone is trying to hack into my Apple account

    I just wanted to make mention of some forum questions I saw similar from earlier, like in June and July. It is now mid-October.
    In the past couple weeks, on at least 3 occassions, I have received similar messages from apple, probably 3 each occassion.
    Hello.
    To reset your Apple ID security questions and answers, simply click the link below. It will take you to a web page where you can create a new set of security questions and answers.
    Please note that the link will expire three hours after this email was sent.

    Didn’t request to reset your security information? Someone may be attempting to claim c•••••@gmx.net as their own Apple ID. Please go to appleid.apple.com to reset your password immediately.
    For more information, visit the Apple ID Support site.
    Thanks,

    They have all referenced the same c******@gmx.net mail adddress. Two of the 3 messages I received last night were in German.
    First time: I have a strong, unique password on my appleid account:  a password more than 16 random upper/lower alpha, numeric and symbols, I keep in a password safe application.
    The second time I got these messages last weekend, I added 2-step authentication to my Apple account.
    Last night, after getting more regarding my challenge questions, I got concerned, so I changed my strong password to another, in case they had acquired my password when Apple's Developer servers got hacked in the recent past.
    As far as I can tell, I am doing everything "right" about creating, using and protecting my account.
    But do you know what a pain in the rear end this is, to change a single appleid password? Each of my devices - 2 macs, iPad, iPhone - I have to change the iCloud login under settings. I have to change the logins in third party apps - my email program for example. This is a freaking nightmare.
    And what really ****** me off is you hear nothing from Apple on this. They don't mention squat about what got hacked, and who's vulnerable. But someone got a hold of my account some how and is trying to complete the job and break into it.
    Is there something else I should do?

    Is there something else I should do?
    You are doing everything right and you haven't been hacked. The only action you have not yet taken is to change your Apple ID.
    It is very likely that someone is convinced your Apple ID is really theirs, and they're repeatedly attempting to reset their password. They click on the link to send an email to have it reset. You get the email with the link to reset it. If you did not request your password to be reset, the obvious thing to do is to ignore it.
    Far from concluding this is a security flaw, it validates Apple's account security. By not responding to the email, you effectively prevented whoever is initiating the password reset request from getting any further.
    It's a good idea to change your Apple ID password once in a while, but you do not have to change your password every time you get an email like that. Ignore it, but you will continue to get the email every time some hapless individual thinks your email address is their Apple ID. This can occur to anyone, as long as Apple uses email addresses for Apple IDs.
    Safeguard your Apple ID just like you would any other personal information. It's probably not a good idea to use the usual email address you publicly use.

  • I am trying to get into my iCloud account and it is saying invalid user name and password

    I am trying to get into my iCloud account and it is saying "Invalid User Name or Password". I thought that you use your Apple I.D. and password, but that does not work! So, how do you reset your user name and/or password if you don't know what ones ICloud is seeking....

    After resetting your password you might then need to log out of your account on your device by phone on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if it's on iOS 6) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    Hello there Sweebs44,
    It sounds like you are tapping the Game Center app to open it, but the screen is blank. I recommend signing out of your account:
    Go to Settings > Game Center, where you can:
    Sign out (tap your Apple ID)
    From: iPhone User Guide
              http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6c493cac
    Then close all the running apps:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the phone sign back into your account and try again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

    Hello there, pacase1.
    From what I understand you've changed the password but can't login to a particular feature on your iPhone 4s. If that is the case, the following Knowledge Base article provides some good pointers to use depending on which feature/service you're trying to sign into on your iPhone:

    If the issue is still with your password, feel free to review the following documentation:
