I have forgotten my iPhone password- what do I do?

I have forgotten my iPhone password… what do I do?

Either force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

Or, login to iCloud.com, locate the phone, then erase it.
Either method will remove the passcode.

    I have forgotten my ME password What do I do ?

    I have forgotten my ME password What do I do ?
    Do you need to sign into Mobile Me to recover your images? Then go to the page: "How to find your Apple ID password" and reset the password for the Apple ID that you used with MobileMe.
    But if you only want to dismiss the "Mobile Me has ended" warning alert, then press the "Learn more" button when this panel is shown, after you lauch iPhoto and then open the iPhoto "Preferences > Accounts" panel. Remove Mobile Me from the list of accounts.
    Afterwards open the System Preferences Mobile Me panel and sign out of Mobile Me.
    If this does not work, you may have to retry it after disconnecting from the Internet and launching iPhoto without an Internet connection.

  • I have forgotten my Master password , help !

    I have forgotten my Master password , what should I do , please be precise as I am barely computer literate .

    Please clarify if you are talking about the Master Password associated with FileVault, or your standard everyday login password.
    If you're talking about FileVault's Master Password it is possible to reset the it, but it still requires all users with FileVault-protected accounts to know their passwords. If a user has forgotten his or her login password, and you have forgotten the master password, there is no way to recover the user's data.
    If you forget the master password, you can reset it, but you must know the passwords for any accounts with FileVault enabled:
    1.
    As an administrator user, delete the master password keychain file (/Library/Keychains/FileVaultMaster.keychain). When the master password keychain is deleted, Mac OS X assumes that no master password is set yet.
    2.
    In Security preferences, set a new master password.
    3.
    Log in to each account that has FileVault turned on, and use Accounts preferences to reset the password for each account.

  • I have forgotten my appleID password and the email it is linked to is deactivated, security questions aren't working. This is on my iPhone and iTunes acs so I can't sync with my new computer. How do I merge AppleID accounts and shut down the old one?

    I have forgotten my appleID password and the email it is linked to is deactivated, security questions aren't working. This is on my iPhone and iTunes acs so I can't sync with my new computer. How do I merge AppleID accounts and shut down the old one (when I have no password and the security questions aren't working?)

    You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.
    You can contact the Apple ID Security folks per the listing in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 and they can help reset security questions and get the account working.

  • HT1766 I have forgotten my iPhone backup password. Is there a way of getting it as I am trying to load my old data from iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5?

    I have forgotten my iPhone backup password. Is there a way of getting it as I am trying to load my old data from iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5?

    If on a Mac, and you elected to save such to your Keychain, you can recover it from your Keychain. Otherwise, you can't.
    While you can continue to sync/backup, if you can't remember it & want to remove it, you'll have to delete your existing backups & restore the phone as a new device. Your data will be unrecoverable.

  • I have forgotten my administrator password and can't find my Mac OS X Install Dvd..what can I do?

    I have forgotten my administrator password and can't find my Mac OS X Install Dvd to reset it, what can I do?

    OK, try this:
    http://osxdaily.com/2010/08/10/forgot-mac-password-how-to-reset-mac-password/
    Be very very careful if you decide to use Terminal. Even a small typing error can cause a disaster. And terminal commands must be typed exactly as shown, including spaces.
    Good luck.
    p.s. Your Apple ID and password - different from the computer log in password - are what you used to get to this discussion.

  • I have forgotten my administrator password, and there are no hints. I have a Mac OS X Mavericks. When I get to the reset password screen, it has no hard drive to select. What now?

    I have forgotten my administrator password, and there are no hints. I have a Mac OS X Mavericks. When I get to the reset password screen, it has no hard drive to select. What now?

    If you're using FileVault, you first have to unlock the startup volume in Disk Utility. Select it and click the Unlock button in the toolbar. Of course, this is only possible if you know another password to unlock the volume. If you don't, follow instead these instructions.
