i forgot my iphone password after making new ones multiple times. is there any way i can change or find out what it is withought having to know my password?!
Restore the device via iTunes, it will remove the passcode.
If referring to another password, reply with more details.

I've never had a problem connecting to my home network until recently. The desktop computer is connected, and my iphone connects as well. It is not a problem with the wireless router, but rather I believe with my computer or airport. How can I fix this?

I just got an the new ipod touch and it won't recognize my password, Any suggestions?
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Do other devices now connect?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I recently changed my apple ID from my old email to my new one. When I try to purchase songs or apps, the apple ID still comes up as my old email. It will not let me log in with my password for either my old apple ID or my new apple ID. I tried to create another account with my new email but it said there was already an account with that email. When I tried to sign in with that same email, it was there was no existing account with that email. That just doesn't make sense. Please help me get this figured out!!!
I'm having the same issue. I went through the apple website to reset my password, and it was no problem, even let me update my email address and apple id, but my iphone is still not accepting what I know the password is, so I can't delete it, or change the apple id information.

Hello, Iasahil.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you are unsure of your iCloud password, I would recommend resetting it via the steps in the article below.

So I have an iphone and for some reason I don't know the password for my Apple ID so I can't download apps and I don't have the password to my email to change it and I don't know the secret questions , what can I do to make a new Apple ID ?
I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option? -

URGENT What can i do? i forgot my password (iCloud) and i don't know the security questions also, the email that was set up with that account was deleted a long time ago, so i cannot update my applications on my iphone 4S.... THANK YOU!!!!
Try the methods described here in this link: Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
If neither your recovery email works nor do you know the answers to the security questions, you need to give Apple Support a call - only they will be able to help you. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:

How can i change delete old Apple ID on my iphone, i dont know the password
i change the Apple ID using my PC. My new Apple ID was verified both email and password. My Ipad air sync to the new Apple ID but my iphone wont sync. And everytime i try to change my Apple ID on my iphone it ask for password of the old Apple ID, but it keep saying incorrect ID and password. I cant delete or change because i dont know the password.
You need to reset the password for the old Apple ID.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5787
FYI - all apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps. Not possible to merge or transfer apps downloaded with one Apple ID to another.
This means in order to install an app update with an app that was downloaded with your old Apple ID, you will need to use that Apple ID and password. -
My apple ID is my dads email as my whole family uses it. for the Icloud account (which we don't use but want to delete) the email somehow changed to my sisters email. I want to delete the account but can't as 'find my iphone' needs to be turned off. no-one knows the password so i can't turn off 'find my iphone' and delete the account. I've tried resetting the password but no email was sent to my sisters email regarding resetting the password, i think it's because her email isn't an apple ID but i have no clue. i went to the apple store last week and the genius somehow deleted it. i backed up my phone with my apple account on icloud as i couldn't do it on my computer. i got a new phone yesterday and icloud has logged onto my sisters email but with no password. i need to delete her account so i can put mine on and restore my phone.
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 contactAppleCare, 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.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do. -
When I set up my iPhone, I accidentally put in an apple ID that doesn't exist. Therefor, I don't know the password and can't delete my account from iCloud. I was trying to sync my contacts to my iPad and now it's not possible without iCloud on my phone. Can anybody help?
Have you tried changing the admin password in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Password ??

Hello! I change my ID Apple and now when I try to make an update, Iphone show me my old ID and ask the password. Why is that? Why the phone don't see my new ID Apple? I can not make any update because the old Apple ID don't work any more. I check and I have my new user all over in my phone. Help me please!
All apps are tied to the Apple ID that downloaded them.
They can not be transferred to a new Apple ID.
You will have to use the Apple ID and password used to download them.
If you do not wish to do so, erase them and download them under the new ID. This will wipe any data in the app and you will have to pay for them again. -
Please someone help
I forgot my answers to my questions. I am trying to buy an app and it says i need to answer my security questions but i forgot my answers. Can i change them or somehow find out what my answers were?You'll have to reset them. Go to https://appleid.apple.com, click on manage your account on the right, sign in, click on Password and Security on the left, look for the link to reset your security questions to the right. This will send a reset email to your rescue email address.

I am unable to share photos from the Iphoto program because I don't know the password for the SMTP account. How can I either retrieve or change that password? Or is it one I already should know?
Have you set the general preferences in iPhoto to email using iPhoto? Then change it to email using "Mail". This way iPhoto will use your regular Mail account.
