I'm trying to change my apple password, however, it's asking me for 2 secret questions that I can't ever recall answering
You cannot and need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

im trying to change my password for my apple id but its says that my account has been disabled for security reasons, how can i solve this problem?
Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it -

My iPod touch (3rd gen - 64 gig)
keeps advising me that my Apple ID has been disabled - it doesn't say for security reasons
I have reset the device, changed my password twice, and left it overnight but it still will not allow me to update OR install any new apps (that have been paid for).
Does anyone have a phone number that I can call that will reach a person who can get it sorted out???Unfortunately, I don't have a number, but if you go the apple.com/support/itunes, it'll give you the pathway to connect with iTunes support. You can also just go straight to Express Lane. Hope this helps!

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.

In my dock there was this weird program called "tutorial". While throwing away this program I had to fill in my password. Afterwards I tried to change my password, but my old password doesn't work anymore. Who can help?
What was this program for, or did you just assume it's something you shouldn't have and therefore arbitrarily decide to "throw it away"? Exactly how did you supposedly throw it away?
If you didn't change your administrator password, there's no reason it shouldn't work now, so that suggests you did something else, or changed it and then forgot what it was.
You can't recover that password; you can only change it. To do that, you would need to boot from your Snow Leopard DVD, choose your language, then choose Reset Password from the Utilities menu in the top menu bar. -
I was trying to change my password and somehow it automatically reset the password for me and I closed the window and now I can't log in. What do I do?
HI,

I am trying to change my password, but not remember the security questions and not access recovery email. Please give me a solution.Ana Maria Cappatto Simoes/ F. 11.50414433
Welcome to the Apple Community.
1. Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
2. If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
3. If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support. -

Ext_auth_setup_err when trying to change the password
Hi Gurus,
I have a portal user account called rob.o'[email protected]
I have a custom(jsp) change password page for changing the portal password. All the other users are able to change their password without any problem. When this user tries to change his password, he gets "ext_auth_setup_err" error and it shows "ROB.O" under user name on that page. Can you post a reply if you have some idea on how to fix this.
This is what I have to get the user name
String str_user = request.getParameterValues("p_username")[0];
Thanks
Raj

For some reason changing the password from Disk Utility > Images > Convert. (be sure you name the image with a different name for the duration of the process otherwise you will get a "Resource Busy" error message). When you choose convert enable the encryption option and re-save the image. When done you can rename it to its older name in the finder. -
