I can't remember my password of the old apple id for unlock my iPhone 4s.
I did everything for confirm that apple id is mine.
I opened website ‘iforgot.apple.com’ and do it to follow things that they tell.
The last things, they told me that ‘When you recieve your sign in information, follow the directions in the email to reset your password’
BUT NOW I DIDN'T GET SOME DIRECTIONS FROM THEM.
I have to wait ? How long ? Or something alse ?
TELL ME PLEASE .

Hello bbenkmholic,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Since you have already intiated the reset for your Apple ID password to be reset, but have not received the password reset email, then please do the following:
Refer to the Apple ID Support page if you are unable to reset your password using the steps in this article. If you know your Apple ID password, you can also choose to change your Apple ID or change your password.

I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?
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. -
Hi!
I have changed my Apple-ID to a new mailadress. But I have not been able to change the iCloud-adress in my iPhone. The iPhone just asks for my password to the old Apple-ID. Can anyone help?If the old ID is yours, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new 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.

Hi, I'm currently using iPhone 4 and iPad 2 with the same Apple ID, now I want to change my iPad 2's Apple ID to a new one so that it can be seperated from my iPhone 4's Apple ID. However, when I tried to change my iPad 2's Apple ID, my iPhone 4's Apple ID also changed. But I want to maintain the same old Apple ID for my iPhone 4 and try to change the iPad 2's Apple ID to a new one so that I can get it to my kid to use it. I would be most grateful if anyone in this forum can advice me on how to change my iPad 2's Apple ID and I can still maintain the old Apple ID for my iPhone 4? Thanks a lot in advance.
Apple ID's are not device specific, so when you changed it on the iPad 2 it changed it on the iPhone 4 as well, since it's the same account still. What you need to do is create a second Apple ID (so you'll have two accounts, one for iPhone 4 and a seperate one for iPad 2).
To create a new Apple ID on your iPad 2:
1) Go into Settings > Store.
2) If you are already signed in, tap your Apple ID on the screen and you will be given a few options, one of which is to sign out of your account.
3) After you sign out, now click the "Sign in" button.
4) Tap "Create New Apple ID" and follow the instructions on-screen. -
Two days ago I changed my apple id. Itunes recognizes my new apple id when I access itunes via the computer. when I try to make a purchase or update my apps on my iphone, it asks to give the password to the old apple id. How do i change it on my iphone?
Apps and music are forever tied to the Apple ID under which they were purchased. If you don't want to continue to get that message, delete the apps and purchase them again with your new Apple ID.

Went to Apple Support website & changed my Apple ID and password successfully but when I went to my iPhone 5c to close Find My iPhone I was asked to give the password of the OLD Apple ID, which no longer exists. I went back to Manage My Apple ID and tried to use the new ID. I was told it was recorded as my backup ID. How do I get the ID to go across all apps.--to sync?
You need to do the following to delete the iCloud account from your device:
1. Go back to Manage your Apple ID and EDIT your Apple ID back to the old email address. This is temporary. Do NOT VERIFY it, do NOT change the password: Apple - My Apple ID
2. Go to Settings>iCloud on your iPhone, and scroll to the bottom of the screen and Sign Out/Delete the iCloud account . Type in your current password when asked. Follow the prompts to complete the sign out/deletion.
Also, sign out the old Apple ID from Settings>iTunes & App Store, Settings>Messages, Settings>FaceTime
3. Go back to Manage your Apple ID, sign on with the old Apple ID and current password, and EDIT the Apple ID back to your new Apple ID (you may have to verify it again).
4. Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign on with the new Apple ID
Sign onto any other apps with the new ID as needed
Cheers,

Why can't I download the free Apple apps for my new iPhone 5S? It was set up in store and restored from my iPod Touch 5.
Are you logged in with the same account that was used to activate the phone ? If you are, and the apps aren't showing as free, then try logging out of your account by tapping on it at the botto of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if they then show as free.

Using a hybrid of the same apple ID for iPad and iPhone.
Hey everyone,
I'd like to be clear and hopefully someone can give me an accurate response as soon as possible.
So, today my sister gave birth (Hurrah!) and she has an iPad 2 that i got her for christmas.
Long story short, my mom is in the same hospital as my sister in the emergency room since she had a heart attack/nervous attack and had to be there for testing. -- Thing is, i want her to Facetime me with an alternate email from my iCloud so she's able to see her grandson while i'm with her.
Question:
Yes, or No: Can we use a hybrid of the same apple ID for both iPad and iPhone?
(Hybrid implying the use of iMessage/Facetime with an alternate email and not my cell number or primary account email.)So once that's done, that'll be it?
Cause she has one of my alternate emaisl currently listed on the iPad (and i unselected those on my iPhone) and it seems that it's not registering as an iMessage when i try to send her a message via my iPhone. -
So when I plug my iPhone 3GS into my iMac, for music reasons, it says I have 123 songs. When I plug my iTouch into my iMac it says I have 565 songs on my iTouch. I have the same apple idea for both my iPhone and iTouch, how do I transfer my 565 songs on my iTouch to my iPhone? PLEASE HELP!!!
When you connect your iPad or iPod to the Mac, click on the device name in iTunes - don't click on the arrow on the device. Then click on the Music tab in the main window pane. Now you should see 'Sync Music' and all your playlists, artists and albums. Here you mark the checkboxes for what should be synced.

How can I sign out or remove the old apple ID in app store's updates?
I created a new apple id and signed in the app store. When I update my apps, it requires me to sign in with my old apple id, and I cannot sign out my old id. How can I sign out or remove the old id in app store's updates?
Delete those applications and then download them from the new Apple ID. This may require repurchasing them.

How do I get the old Apple ID off of my iPhone and the new one installed?
I got a MacBook Pro and decided to create a new Apple ID different from the one I previously had. How do I get the old Apple ID off my iPhone and the new one installed?
When I tried this, my music stayed the same whereas my new iTunes has only about half the music it used to. How can I get all the music to clear out so that it can sync my new music to it. Simply connecting it to the MacBook Pro and pressing Sync has not worked.

Turn off iCloud completely
Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
Note: If you delete your iCloud account, iCloud will no longer back up your iOS data. You can still back up your device in iTunes (for more information, open iTunes and choose iTunes > Help).
On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
If your Mac has OS X v10.7.5 and you turn off iCloud, your calendar information and reminders aren’t stored locally in iCal. If you want to retain your calendar and reminder information, you need to back it up before turning off iCloud. For more information, see the Apple Support article iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from Calendar and Reminders or iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar.
On your Windows computer, open the iCloud Control Panel, then click Sign Out.
Note: If you turned on automatic download of music, app, or book purchases (in iTunes preferences or in Settings on your iOS device), your iTunes purchases are still downloaded to your devices.
