I cant get onto my MobileMe account even after changing my password

I am stuck as i cant sync or anything on my mobile me account even after changing password can anybody shed some light on this.

If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know that account password, the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.

  • Migration Assistant created new account to deposit all my stuff, but I can't access that account, even after changing the password via the main acct'

    I am at my wits end.  The migration assistant created a new profile (I didnt konw that it would do this) and now I can't get into that profile with all the stuff from my old PC. 
    I have tried changing password via the main account, but to no avail.  I have researched issues with Keychain, but all it tells me to do is change the login password - that doesnt work either - I cant get to all my files.

    Migraine Assistant it's called.
    Delete the account from the main one, create a new account and transfer files manually via a regular FAT external drive you pickup at any office or computer store, Mac's can read it.

  • Can't log in (Mac OSx 10.6.6) even after changing the password 8 times!

    Not happy.I can't believe how hard it is to get support from Spotify for a service I am paying them for! Having to trawl through chat rooms is not customer care! Basically, I can't log into Spotify even after changing my password. I am at work but the tech bods say it should work fine (always has done until now). I just need someone to let me into the service I am paying for!If anyone see's anyone from Spotify hiding anywhere, please let me know.  

    If I follow that link you just sent me and use my email address for the username (I don't have/ can't remember my username) and put my password in it doesn't work. If I use my email and password to log in (using the link sent to my email to reset my password) it logs in fine. It doesn't recognise password on the Spotify App

    Hi ,
    Thanks for joining the Community.
    If your service has just started you may need to allow 24-48 before logging in to your online account.

  • I was stunned to discover that the Restore feature allowed others to get into my gmail account even after the computer had been shut down and restarted. How can this be prevented?

    We have a PCin our shared vacation home running both Firefox and Explorer . When I tried to log into my gmail, Firefox took me automatically to one of my sister's accounts. In an effort to get to my own account, I shut down the computer. When I rebooted and restarted Firefox, it asked if I wanted to restore earlier session, and Lo & Behold I was back in my sister's email account. This is scandalous! How can it be prevented?

    Hi,
    You may have to disable (uncheck) '''Active Logins''' in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''Privacy''' > '''Settings''', if it is enabled. Additionally you may also have to change to '''Use custom settings for history''' beside '''Firefox will''' and enable '''Clear history when Firefox closes''', if '''Settings''' is disabled or not visible.
    Also, please note that it's always a safe practice to sign out of websites completely on shared PCs.

  • Why did my itunes card get deleted from my account when i changed my password

    why was my itunes card deleted from my itunes and app store when i only changed my password

    An account's balance should not have been affected by changing your password. You've tried logging out and back into your account on your phone and/or computer's iTunes and seeing if it then shows, and checked your account's purchase history e.g. you didn't have any auto-renewing subscriptions or pre-orders due that might have taken the money : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store ?
    If logging out/in doesn't get it to show and you can't see any purchases that might have taken it then try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can help with where it went : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page,

  • HT201263 i cant restore my phone, I keep getting a message to turn off find my iphone, cant get into it b/c my daughter change the password and doesn't remember the password

    Remove an iOS device or Mac on which you can’t turn off Find My iPhone
    If you can’t turn off Find My iPhone on the device, turn off the device so it goes offline, then remove it from Find My iPhone on iCloud.com.                        
    Note:   If you have an iOS device, you can also remove your device by first erasing it—just follow the instructions below to remove a device you don’t have. You can later restore the device from an iCloud or iTunes backup.                            
                               Turn off the device.                       
                               Sign in to icloud.com/#find on another computer with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud).                                                      If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.                       
                               Click All Devices, select the offline device, then click Remove from Account. If you don’t see Remove from Account, click All Devices again, then click the Delete (x) button next to the device.                                                      If the device comes online again, it will reappear in Find My iPhone. To make sure your device doesn’t reappear, turn off Find My iPhone on the device (follow the instructions above to remove an iOS device or Mac), or if you have an iOS device, you can erase it, then remove it (follow the instructions below to remove an iOS device you no longer have).                          

  • In my preferences on my mac mini when i click it, i find the lock the open even after changing the password what would cause this?I use my home wifi network and have never given the password out,as I asked what could cause this?

    What could cause the lock in my preferences to seemingly to click open on there own,I use my home wifi network which is private and have never given out that password either for my network or preferences password.....help,Thank you

    You're welcome.
    Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
    You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.

  • I am stuck on the log in page even after changing my password

  • I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, 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 iPhone on your device, 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.

  • HT4314 After updating my OS, I couldn't get onto my gamecenter account.  I created a new nickname to see what would happen.  Now I can only access my new nickname, but not my old one that has all my scores.  My friends can still see my old nickname.

    After updating my OS, I couldn't get onto my gamecenter account.  I created a new nickname to see what would happen.  Now I can only access my new nickname, but not my old one.  However, my old account has all my scores!  I want to delete the new nickname and re-access my old (i.e., original) nickname.  Interestingly, my friends can still see my old nickname.
    Any suggestions would be VERY appreciated!  Thanks.

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:
    http://tinypic.com/r/107quxu/7
    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?
