I need help to change the password to my Apple ID

I have two apple ID's I made the second one for my iCloud when I bought my iPad not knowing that I could have used my normal Apple ID that I use for everything else. Now I cant sign out of that apple ID in my icloud on all three of my devices my iphone 4, my ipad and my iphone 5 I currently use, because I cannot for the life of me remember my password!
I have tried everything I can remember and none of the passwords I was sure would work, works. So first of all I tried to have apple send me an email to reset my password and no email is received in my email account from apple, I have checked my other two email addresses I use thinking maybe I entered those as my alternate email addresses and there is nothing from apple in either of them for this particular apple ID. Then I tried the option to answer my security questions and it doesn't even recognise my date of birth linked with this apple ID! which is ridiculous because the account is mine. So I started googleing and found that I could change my normal apple id with the one I want to change the password to but when I enter that email it says 'email must be valid,be available and not be a domain owned by apple' and it wont let me save that email address to do that.
Then I found a video on youtube that tells you how to unlock it and delete it from your device without the password but it only works if the icloud is actually signed in and mine isn't signed in so I can't even do that, mine is signed out on all my devices but still on my phones and ipad and everything is grey so I cant click into anything! and every time I use my phone or ipad and go into safari or anything else a box pops up every two seconds asking me to sign into icloud its soo frustrating to have to click cancel every single time and now that I'm so fed up with it I thought I would now reset my password thinking it wouldn't be hard to do as I usually forget my passwords to almost everything and am constantly resetting them its become the most difficult thing to do with apple!
I called apple support and they were trying to get me to do all these things in my settings and nothing worked! I've been needing to call them back and ask if there is a way they can just reset my password for me or if my phone number is linked with my apple ID so maybe they could text me my reset key, does anybody know if they can do that? usually these days everything can be texted to you like my email provider and net bank providers but Apple seem to not even have that option or can anyone tell me how I can hack into my own account? also I went to that "find my apple ID" thing when you go to sign in and popped in all my possible email addresses, either all together or one each with my name and it wont find this apple ID I'm locked into it's like it doesn't even exists anymore but it does exists I remember creating it, its still on all my devices with my picture there as well! I've even been thinking I should go to a hypnotist or something to help me remember this password its making me so frustrated I've never had a password of mine that I have forgotten that I've never been able to reset or crack back into but Apple makes this so difficult. can anybody help?

Restore it.

Hi yana79,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know that it can be frustrating when your iPhone becomes disabled due to passcode. In this situation, if you cannot remember your passcode, you will need to restore. If you have a backup in either iTunes or iCloud, you can restore from that backup. Keep in mind that the backup you restore from will have the passcode attached to it that was enabled at the time of the backup. Please use the attached article for more information.
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

Hi, Lee. Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
From this Apple Knowledge Base article:
Start up from a Mac OS X Install disc (one whose version is closest to the version of Mac OS X installed). Usually, you can start from the disc by putting it in your computer, restarting, and holding the C key. Or, put it in the computer and click the Install or Restore icon you see in the disc's main window (after which the computer will start from the disc without you needing to hold C). Or, you can use Startup Manager or the Startup Disk preference pane to select the Install disc.
Choose a language, click the arrow button to continue,
Mac OS X v10.6 or later: Choose Password Reset from the Utilities menu.
Mac OS X v10.5 or v10.4: Choose Reset Password from the Utilities menu.
Mac OS X v10.3: Choose Reset Password from the Installer menu.
Tip: If you don't see this menu or menu choice, you're probably not started from the disc yet.
Note: The default keyboard layout is U.S. English while started from the installation disc. If you use a keyboard layout other than U.S English, use the Input menu (the flag icon on the right side of the menu bar) to select the desired layout before typing a new password.
Select your Mac OS X hard disk volume.
Select the user name of your original administrator account.
Important: Do not select "System Administrator (root)". This is actually the root user. You should not confuse it with a normal administrator account.

I changed the password for my Apple ID and now my iPhone won't send my texts

I changed the password for my Apple ID and now my iPhone won't send out my texts....says they are undeliverable unless I send them out manually as texts.

Hi sbiermann,
If you have recently changed the password on your Apple ID account, you may need to manually sign out and sign back in to your Apple ID on your device for the change to take effect. You may find the following article helpful:

Why do I have to change the password for my Apple ID every 3 months?

Until recently I assummed that everyone had to change their password every 3 months, but on searching the web I found only a couple of mentions of other people who have to do this.
My Apple ID was originally set up when I bought a Mac through my company (which was not a developer) from AppleStore Small & Medium Businesses in 2002. Perhaps all accounts set up that way in 2002 work like this?
The only solutions I can think of are:
a) Change something in my Password and Security settings, but I can't see anything relevant.
b) Move to a new Apple ID, but I think I would lose access to existing apps I have purchased?
c) Ask Apple to change my settings, but the response a developer with this problem got from Apple was: "I am unable to change the password requirements and restrictions for your Developer Account".
Anyone else have to keep changing their password?

With hindsight, the previous response I got from Apple was just a way of shelving the problem.
Having just had to reset my password after another 3 months, I contacted Apple again, and it happened that the senior advisor whom the phone agent consulted had had exactly the same problem as me, and had found that iTunes could fix it. However when I spoke to iTunes they told me I needed to speak to Apple ID account security. The Apple ID account security representative spoke to a senior adviser, then told me that it would be fixed after I reset my password. However I am not convinced that anything was actually done, so I may be back here in another 3 months ...
To modify Roger's advice, the solution I was given is: go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'All Products and Services' in the first column, 'iTunes' in the second column, 'iTunes Store' in the third column, then "Account Management" and "Apple ID account security", then "Talk to Apple support now". A complication is that the "Talk to Apple support now" option only appears when UK English is selected. So you either need to select UK at the top, or find another way of making phone contact (the email link just went back to the person in iTunes)!

When you change the password for your apple Id and you loose all your messages can you get them back?

So my stupid mum decided to change the password instead of waiting for me to get up -_- and now I have lost all my iMessages that were very important and I can't find them I recently tried to back all my iPod up to my laptop but I had a look and couldn't find anything to do with messages can someone help

You only way is to restore from backup if you have backed up after the Messages were on the iPod but before you "deleted" them. iTunes only retains the last backup.
See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up

Need help with changing the name.

I got my palm pre from an uncle who lives in the states. The problem is I can't call tech support to ask them because I live in belize. The proble I have with my pre is that I have added my email account to the phone, but when I send an email, they receive it in my uncles name, my name is lanny and they receive an email form cesar, I think you can see where the problem lies. Is there anyway I can change it to my name? Please help!

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
I would create a new Palm Profile. To do this you will need to go to the Device Info app, Reset Options, then select Full Erase. All pictures, videos, and anything else stored in the USB side of the device will be erased. I recommend that if you want to keep any of that to connect your device to a computer then click and drag everything you want to keep off of the device and onto your computer.
After you perform the Full Erase the device is going to reboot. It is going to come up with a screen to sign in to a Palm Profile or Create a New Palm Profile. NOTE*** You will need a data connection to do this. Select Create a New Palm Profile and fill in the blanks. Once you are back into the device you can set up your email accounts again and it should display the name you created the Palm Profile with.
I hope this helps,
-Pat

WRTG42 v1 Need help with changing the Security Mode

I need to change my wireless security mode but for some reason whenever I try to change anything the website automatically puts what ever I changed back to normal. Basically, I try to change an option and the website changes the option back instantly. Has anyone else had this issue? And if so, can you please walk me through what you did? Thanks!

Try using a different browser and make sure you click on Save Settings after changing security settings. Here's a link for detailed instructions.

You should be able to change the product name in Google Cloud. The ChromeBook uses Google Cloud to print (Google Cloud uses HP ePrint). Log into your google account and change the printer name there.

I am in a school environment, naming printers is imortant.
Bonjour Service Name and Device Description name have been changed. IOS7 devices see the Bonjour name but ChromeBooks see the Product name. How can I change the Product name on the printer so that it is then recognized by HP Connected and shown to ChromeBook devices?

Someone keeps changing the password on my apple id and apple not responding to calls.

2 hours ago i recieved a wave of emails saying my appleID password was changed, and the credit information was changed.
I went and sure enough the password was incorrect.
I recovered the account to find the Account holders name to be:
<edited by host>
This is not me.
Ontop of that the credit card attached to the account was removed and a new one added(i won't reveal any info about this).
I'm seeking information on this since any calls made to apple are hung up by their voice recording system, telus can't assist me, and my credit card company says there is nothing they can do.
Why the **** doesn't apple have a 24/7 online chat support, they're a big enough company for this sort of thing.
Nothing else on my computer seems to be effected and i've scanned it with a few different virus scans now. I havn't downloaded anything recently, and none of my bank or any other information has been touched so far.(nor the online games i play however, they're much less significant).
This to me makes it seem as though the comprimise is on apples end and not mine, but i'm still open to suggestions seeing as i can't get a hold of apple until tomorrow after 9am...
e/ Also i tried a reverse lookup on 411.ca to find this person and they have an otherwise unlisted number. I was unable to call them and see what was going on there either...

It seems clear to me that this is a security matter. You may find that contacting them via the link below will help your cause.
Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
I would certainly edit out all financial details for the moment and re-enter them as directed by Apple security.
Apple will not usually change anything of their own volition so any direct contact suggesting what you describe is almost certainly dubious.

I need help in changing my password on my Nook HD. I had entered the wrong password initially.

How do I change my adobe password kn my Nook HD.?

What are you trying to use as your payment method ? If it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method in all countries - from this page :
You may be able to use other payment types in your country, like debit and Maestro cards.
which implies that they are not accepted in all countries, and there have been a number of posts about them being declined.
If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
