I forgot my ICloud password and can't reset it without the password
Okay so I made a new Apple ID and I want to use it on the app Find my iPhone but can't since I forgot the previous Apple ID I can't change it / remove it I also forgot the information to the email and security questions please help
I am sorry for you, because you will need access to your old account, otherwise you won't be able to delete your old account. If you remembered your old ID, then you can at least reset your password here: https://appleid.apple.com/

My friend found his old ipod touch 4. He charged it up, and it says "disabled" and i cant restore it on itunes without his password which he forgot. Can I restore it without the password.
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
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: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
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 most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
Since
the latest iOS download iCloud keeps trying to verify my account as well as keeps trying to upgrade. I can't figure out how to stop it as I also don't know my password And can't reset the iCloud PW. Any suggestions?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.

how do i delete icloud account on my ipad when my apple ID is non active email and i don't know the password and can't reset password without active email
If the iCloud account you are trying to delete is old ID that was later updated to change it to your current ID, you can 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 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, if desired, you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

i changed my apple id password are my imessages still there and can they be viewed without the new password?
If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information. Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

I have a MAC, Apple TV and wifi. My ex gave my neighbor the password to my wifi and now I want to change the password so she can't access my network any more. How do I change my Wifi password so I don't mess up my Apple TV?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't do that, you'll need to change the password on your Wi-Fi and then change the settings on the Apple TV to log into your network again using the new password. -

I don't remember my admin (login) password and can't reset it
I'm trying to reset my "admin"/user password but can't figure it out??
If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. In the window that opens, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) 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 your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
*Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions. -

I have an old Apple ID associated with a discontinued e-mail address. It keeps popping up when I try to update apps. I don't remember the password. When I try to change it by security questions, it rejects my birthdate! I can't change it by e-mail because I no longer have access to the e-mail. All I really want to do is cancel this old ID. How can I do this? Obviously, I have a new ID, since I am using this support community.
You'll have to contact iTunes store support to see if they can help you with this: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.
