    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.

    You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

  • My ISP tells me I need to I need to change the port to send/receive e-mails, but I can't remember my Mail password to add an account. How can I proceed without the password?

    My ISP tells me I need to change the port to send/receive mail, as the current port is going to be disabled for security reasons. But I can't remember my Mail password to add an account. How can I add an account when I don't remember my password? It's been several years.

    your email password is with your ISP so they can help. but if it is saved in the email app you can just change the ports in the preferneces without a password.

  • HT201210 my daughter  cant remember her ipod password

    How can I reset the password when daughter cant remember her password?

    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.
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    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 iPod backup that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I cant remember my system password

    I just bought a new MacBookPro and cannot remember my system password, what should I do?

    Resetting User Password in Lion and Mountain Lion
    Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
    When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
    In Terminal, type:
    resetpassword
    ...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • Cant remember iCloud account password???

    OK so... My boyfriend and I share an iPad. My Apple ID is currently being used for most things on the iPad but my boyfriend made the iCloud account in his email so anyways now the guy can't remember the password, security question answer OR the password to the email he used when he set it up so he can't receive the email to re set... Our iCloud storage needs to be backed up like immediately but we can't do anything about it giving this situation. Any ideas??  iCloud won't let us back up or even sign out without the password.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    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 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.
    You will need to show patience with the procedure and be prepared to demonstrate without question that the account belongs to you. Don’t expect access to be restored immediately and if you aren’t the owner of the Apple ID registered to the device the account won’t be reset.

  • Cant remember neither my password nor the security answer

    Hey guys
    I need to dowload a new blackberry messenger to upgrade my phone but I forgot my password and even the answer to the security question to help me find it back.
    Isn't there any information I can give to match my personal details to find my password back? Or any additional question to verify my ownership and find my password?

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    You didn't say, so I assume you are talking about your BB ID for use in AppWorld. As a secure system, you are responsible for your credentials to access it. Since you don't know those, you have only one chance left -- find the original "Welcome" email you received when you registered AppWorld/BBID and it has a link you can use to recover from. Otherwise, the only thing you can do is create a new BBID/AppWorld account, losing all prior purchases.
    You also can download BBM without AppWorld via this link:
