I have forgotten my apple ID password for email and iTunes but can't access retrieve emails

I can't get current emails to my I cloud account as its saying my password is incorrect. I can't then access the retrieve email for new password. I've also forgotten my security questions. Please help !

If you've forgotten your account's password then you might be able to get it reset via this page http://iforgot.apple.com
If you've forgotten the answers to your security questions then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

    You can do it without any problem. Just create a second user account for your second Apple ID

  • HT201272 I have purchased log ten pro universal for iPad and iPhone , but can't find it listed in my purchased apps , nor can I download it from apps

    I had purchased LOG TEN PRO UNIVERSAL, from the app store and had it installed on the iPad 2 , it worked great . Now I have purchased an iPhone 5 and I want to install the LTP UNIVERSAL INTO THE IPHONE but , in the app store It seems that I have to repurchase the app for some reason,this shouldn't be the case since the app clearly can be installed on an iPad n phone together , I don't know what to do about it . I did email coradine about the same and got the following reply from them:
    From: Tom Jendrzejek (Support staff)
    Subject: Hey Tom on ur request I hve started a new discussion ....I'LL BE USING THIS LINK FOR ALL FURTHER DEALINGS..
    Hi Reuben,
    You should be able to re-download LogTen Pro from the Purchases section of the App Store. To find this, open the App Store on your iPhone, and tap the Updates section. At the top of the Updates screen there will be a "Purchases" section, and tap this to enter it. Make sure that you are logged in with the same Apple ID that you originally used to purchase LogTen Pro, and it will display a "download/cloud" button. Tap it, confirm your password, and it will download again.
    This "Purchases" section has been known to be a bit buggy -- try logging out and back into the App Store on your iPhone if you don't see it.
    The App Store handles all sales and customer information, so your proof of purchase should have been sent by them. It is usually emailed to you from "iTunes Store" with a title: "Your receipt No. ##########".
    Let me know how that goes.
    Thanks,
    Tom

    So I just updated to the newest update that was available for safari and iTunes but now it won't let me go on the Internet using safari and  it also won't let me sync my songs ,,,,,(it takes forever to backup my iPad AND my iPod) so what can I do ?

    If you're on windows try the following:
    This worked for me an hour ago and has allowed me to sync ok. Still haven't tried downloading the new version 5 to the phone yet as I'm still backing up photos etc just in case.
    1. Quit itunes
    2. Start an elevated command prompt (Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> right click Command Prompt -> Run as Administrator)
    3. Once in the command prompt type the following 3 words starting where your cursor is flashing: netsh winsock reset
    4. press ENTER
    5. Reboot your machine
    6. Restart itunes & connect device to sync
    7. Good luck  

  • How to manage different apple id's for icloud and itunes purchases and game center etc. ?

    Hi
    Myself and my brother have been sharing the same apple id for all the itunes purchases. We both have iphone 4. Since the introduction of icloud, we are little confused about the id managing process. Yesterday, we both updated our iOS to iOS 5. And, just after installing iOS 5, we were asked to enter apple id and password. We both entered the same id and password. Now both are iphones have overlapping contacts and other stuff.
    Now, we have deciced that we want to make separate apple id's for ourselves i.e we want different apple id's for our iclouds (plus game center) and same apple id's for all our itunes purchases (if we are allowed to do that).
    So now we have no idea how to do this after once entering the same id during iOS 5 installation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    If you're wanting to share content between multiple apple ids in the family I would suggest to use iTunes match.

  • Have to give Apple ID password all the time. How can I stop it?

    I have to give my apple ID pasword for iCloud about every time I unlock my iPhone5 (or just random when working on my phone). This since I updated to iOS8 a couple of days ago. How can I make it stop?
    It doesn't matter if I cancel or give it. Everything seems to work anyway. Logging out of iCloud and then logging in again doesn't help.

  • HT204053 Since upgrade to the latest version of the iPad system, my iPad does not recognise the password for iCloud and won't let me access it to change it

    Since the last upgrade on the iPad system, I have not been able to log in with my password to iCloud.  I have changed my Apple ID and password to see if this would help but no it hasn't made any difference and every time I go into my emails the log in screen keeps popping up with the old username and the sign in it won't recognise.  Please could someone tell me in easy steps how to alter this?

    Hi Susie. If you don't remember the password to the apple id with which you have logged into icloud then you need to reset the password at iforgot.apple.com. Put in that old apple id and if you have access to that email you can have a link sent to it to reset your password. If you don't have access to it then you can choose to answer security questions. If you can't answer the security questions properly then you need to go to expresslane.apple.com and tollow the prompts for apple id issues/can't answer security questions and if you put in your contact information Apple will call you immediately and you can talk to someone who can help you reset that password.

  • How can I have a call with someone from Customer Support if I live in Costa Rica? I have forgotten the answers to my security questions and basically I can't buy anything on iTunes. I do not have a rescue email account otherwise I won't be writing here.

    I have been trying to fix this by myself but I gave up! I don't remember the answers I provided before. Tried to have a call with apple support but it seems that this is not an option if you live in Costa Rica. How am I supposed to spend the credit I have in my apple account?
    Thank you... Pura vida!

    As Costa Rica isn't on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    then try contacting Support via this form and explain that you've forgotten your answers, don't have a rescue email address, and your country isn't on the HT5699 page and see how they reply : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 .

  • Cant change or delete apple id used for iphone and itunes

    id managment issue. I have an id based on my current email account. I can't recall the password and can't reset the password. I get the email to reset the password however when I enter the new password and hit submit it says the id is in use.  Have been trying to contact Apple but no response. Have created a new email account and new apple id's to get around the problem but would like to delete the original and or at least change the password. Suggestions?

    I FOUND THE SOLUTION!
    I had the same exact problem. I had my old apple ID connected to a school email which did not exist anymore. My ipad was prompting me to put the password in for that ID and I could not delete it from my ipad because the "Find My Ipad" was turned on, once again prompting for password. I called apple and they said this Apple no longer exists and is not in there system, which I knew already. After hours on the phone nobody could help me. Try this.
    -Go to create a new Apple ID and use the same email address as the old apple ID which is locked in on your ipad
    -Create a new password and all that, it will say it send a verification link to your email, in my case my email no longer exists so I could not do this
    - I called Apple to explain this problem and I asked if they could verify it for me, which they did after I convinced them it was worth a try. The guy told me that the verification shouldnt matter and should still be able to login but he did it anyway. You can try skipping this step but if it doesn't work then go ahead.
    -Go to ICloud and click on your account, the email should be grayed out but it should allow you to change that password, put in the new password which you just created.
    -This allowed me to sign in to accept the new terms and conditions but it said "unable to conncet to server" so I just backed out and went to "Delete Account" and it worked!
    The whole idea is to re-create your old apple ID into Apple's system and then use that new password. The guy at Apple said tons of people called about this problem and nobody could solve it. I thanked him for helping me and he thanked me for helping him. I hope this helps you!

  • TS2634 My Ipod Touch has a cracked screen at the top. The unlock slider does not work. I have loaded the latest software onto the Ipod and iTunes but still the slider will not operate. Is the cracked screen the problem?

    My IPod Touch has a small crack at the top of the screen and now the slider will not work to unlock it. Is the cracked screen the problem?

    To get pass the passcode lockscreen, recovery mode and restoring should help: iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    If the issue continues after updating and restoring your device, refer to this document.

  • HT5625 I have forgotten my apple ID, Password, and I have forgotten my security questions. what should I do in this situation

    what should I do?

    Which support page? See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mh35902.html for starters. An alternative to those steps is to boot into the Recovery HD, restart holding down the CMD+R keys, and select Reset Password from the options menu.
