I constantly receive emails about request of resetting my Apple ID password, but I have never asked to do that. Does it mean someone is trying to steal my account?

It successfull to reset, But I do not receive email from Apple. Please help my I phone can't active when I upgrade version.First, try the new password. If you didn't sign out of iCloud prior to changing the primary email address of your Apple ID, this is what can cause this problem.
Also, read this: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support -
I received an email from Apple telling me how to reset my Apple ID password but I know I didn't request it. Anyone else? Suggestions? Should I just ignore it?
Did the email contain your name? Never click on a link in an email like that and do no enter any personal info after clicking in an email.
There have been quite a few people getting these emails. They are a phishing attempt to get your personal info. -
I need to reset my Apple ID password, but it says that my security questions were not answered correctly. The email address associated with the questions to reset the answers is no longer available to me. It is my old college email. Does anyone know how to change this email? The unavailable email is not in my list of emails approved in my Apple ID settings.
You cannot and need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

I'm trying to reset my apple ID password but forgot my security questions. Apple are sending the confirmation e-mail to the wrong address, please help?
Hello AndrewsAFCx,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
If you cannot remember your security questions for your Apple ID, I would recommend these steps outlined in the article named:
Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
All the best,

I have reset my Apple ID & Password but I still cannot access the music I purchased using another computer, ID & PW. It keeps saying that my computer is not authorize to play the songs. I have tried everything and nothing seems to work. Help!
iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

I lost my phone 6 weeks ago, today I got an email saying "iPhone has been locked." does this mean someone has tried to power up my device. I had put the remote lock on the phone when I lost it. Today I sent 2 messages to the phone asking to call my phone

I reset my apple Id password but my iPad wont accept it
I changed my apple Id password but when I type it in on my iPad it tells me that the password is incorrect. Help me please!
This happened to me as well. What caused it : under my Apple ID account, I had the same email address listed under both my primary email as well as additional email so it was duplicated and therefore wouldn't allow Login.
What's solved it. An advisor helped me edit the primary email address... by 1. Logging in under my iCloud account/username.
2. As well we made sure i had signed out of all settings that had my original Apple ID account, iTunes etc., ... also did this on my iPhone.
3. Once I was logged in I edited my primary email address with a brand-new email address. And deleted the additional old email address as well just be on the safe side.
This seem to do the trick.
4. Also updated the new address on my iPhone settings too. -
I can't seem to download apps from the app store. I keep getting unknown error eventhough I have reset my apple id password repeatedly. With itunes I have no problem. This is VERY frustrating to say the least.
Because too much time has passed I can't edit this into the prior comment, but here is the info regarding reverting to iTunes 11.0.2 (assuming you do have a time machine backup) from https://discussions.apple.com/message/22057703#22057703

Repairing permissions doesn't fix it.
I reverted to the previous version, 11.0.2.
1. Quit the new crash-prone iTunes.
2. Delete the app.
3. Restore v. 11.0.2 with Time Machine.
4. In your iTunes folder look for a folder called "Previous iTunes Libraries", find the latest one.
5. In the iTunes folder itself you'll see "iTunes Library.itl", delete it (or compress it and save a copy for later just in case.
6. Copy the newest .itl file in Previous iTunes Libraries to the iTunes folder and rename it "iTunes Library.itl".
7. Launch the older version of iTunes.
My crashing has seemed to have ceased with a revert to an older version. I noticed today that the newer crashing iTunes had been launched for hours but not playing anything, when I played internet radio it crashed within 5mins, fed up I reverted to an older version.
Btw, a simpler way to do this is to revert to older iTunes app, then hold Option when it launches and choose an older library. -

I reset my apple ID password but when I sign in to iMessage or iCloud it tells me incorrect password
My iPhone 5 wants me to sign in to iMessage and iCloud. I successfully reset my password using my pc and then tried signing in on my phone, but I keep getting told the password is incorrect. So I restarted my phone and tried again but got the same thing. Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Hi pete7685,
When you go to the My Apple ID website - are you able to sign in with your new password? What about the www.icloud.com website? If the password works in these two places, try deleting the iCloud account and adding it again on your iPhone.
Apple ID: Changing your password - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201355
Follow these steps to change your Apple ID password. If you can't remember your password, follow the steps for what to do if you forget your Apple ID password.
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Click “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you're unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
Click "Password and Security".
In the "Choose a new password" section, click Change Password.
Enter your old password, then enter a new password and confirm the new password. Click Save when done.
The next time you use an Apple feature or service that uses Apple ID, you'll be asked to sign in with your new Apple ID password.

Im trying to reset my apple id password but it keeps saying session timed out
im trying to reset my password but it keeps saying session timed out
And in case you need to know what the "time-out" error means, it means that either (1) your internet connection is not strong enough to allow your computer to load the page within the browser's time-out time-limit or (2) the server on which the website is located is too bogged down to send the necessary info to your computer within the browser's set time-out time-limit.
I just thought I would share in case the context helps solve the same problem in other scenarios.
