I recently had to do a factory restore on my iphone 4s. Upon trying to set up my phone again I am being asked to sign into my icloud account. I can't remember the password or the email I used to set it up. I know my Apple ID, password and email for that account, but that doesn't allow me to get back into my phone. I can't reset the icloud password because I can't remember the email I used. Any ideas on what I can do please ?
Hi, Fugalltadowivu.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
This sounds like Activation Lock has been enabled on this device. Here is some helpful information regarding this feature.

If you purchased your device from a third party, this device may be locked to their Apple ID. If this is the case you may want to check out the article below.

I have apps from old work account that I can't remember the password to. On my personal phone those apps keep showing up but I can't update them because I can't remember the password. How can I delete them and download on my new account?
Tap and hold an app until they all start jiggling and an X appears in the icon's top left corner. One by one tap the X to delete the app. when they are all gone you are free to buy them again with your own account.

I can't change the email on my iCloud account on my iPhone because I can't remember the password, and I can't remember one of the security questions. What do I do?
Hi karen615,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you cannot reset your Apple ID password via security questions, you can reset via email authentication. If you are not receiving the email, it may be necessary to contact Apple Support using the link in the Get help section toward the bottom of the article.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

I upgraded to an iPad2 and recently pulled out my old iPad 1 to re-gift to a family member. I can't remember the password I originally set up - is there a way to get beyond this? Each time I try a different password (trying any that I thought I might have originally used) it times out the tablet for up to an hour before I can try again. Help?
You can restore the device. That is what you have to do if you forget the passcode. You don't have to worry about syncing to your own computer either since you don't want to restore your data - you want to wipe it clean. Read these articles for more instructions
iPad disabled -Wrong Passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
Updating or Restoring
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Sometimes you may not be able to bypass the passcode at all when you try to restore. You may need to restore by putting the iPad into recovery mode. I have heard from some users that they did not have to do this when they restore after forgetting the passcode - but just in case you need the information, this will help you with that procedure.

I can't remember the password, what should I do?
Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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 iTunes purchases by:

My child thought it would be funny to lock my ipod touch. Now he can't remember the password and I am locked out. How do I fix this? Is there a reset button?
Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If the iPod asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or if you do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:
