Itune account password requirements

where do i find Itune account password requirements?

The window I get when trying to create a new account lists the requirements as :
- have at least one lower case character
- have at least one capital letter
- have at least one number
- not contain multiple identical consecutive letter
- not to be the same as the account name
- be at least 8 characters
- not be a common password
I also don't think that you can re-use recent passwords

  • Itunes account password reset. icloud email unavailable...

    this is a question for a friend, because obviously, i have an account to ask.
    itunes account password reset because her son kept attempting to access account.
    to reset password, link goes to email. however, her email was an icloud account. so it used the same log in as the itunes account.
    she knows the secret question and answer to access and reset from the non-email password reset method, however, the birthday required to get to that question is inaccessible and does not work (she is a woman, and obviously lies about her age).
    I'm thinking the only way around it is to either setup a new itunes account, which would erase the ipad data once that is connected ( i assume that ipads can connect with only a single account), or find some other way to access the secret question. there is no phone number listed for icloud.
    the ipad is only backed up to the icloud account. she just bought a computer, so would like to make a physical backup of the ipad. I think it is unadvisable to connect the ipad and the computer, until the icloud account can be accessed.
    I'm not very knowledgable of the whole icloud thing. it sounded like a good idea to back up the son's ipad since she didnt have a computer, so i gifted her the icloud account. now, i'm kind of responsible for figuring out the situation. any helpful comments and suggestions would be appreciated.

    sneaky, found it sent an email to one of my email accounts as well as the icloud.
    login solved.

  • Why is my iPod touch repeatedly asking for different iTunes account passwords?

    Does anyone know why my iPod Touch keeps asking for 5 different iTunes account passwords? Also, in the iTunes app it says I have 651 songs preparing to download, and I didnt tell it to download them. Does anyone know why this keeps happening? It only began after I reset my iPod.

    I have this problem too. I'm trying to restore an iPod and it asks me for account numbers. Is there Anyway to get around it? Cause it does not seem fair if I can have and listen to it on my iTunes but not my iPod. The one account is from a girl who litteraly went mentally insane, I'm not going to be asking for her password EvER. And the other is An ex friend and I don't even know who the third account is! This is really not fair and sooooo annoying. It won't put on alll my other music without these passwords. There has to be a fix for this. I can't even use my iPod and get music on it!

  • TS1292 When I input code it just keeps asking for iTunes account password over and over again not loading card

    I got a £25 iTunes gift card for my birthday and I have tried to redeem it but it is not working. I don't know if it's not activated but there is no message saying that the card is not inactive and I have checked all the letters and numbers and I have entered them correctly. When I enter the code it asks me to enter my iTunes account password I do that and then it just brings up the box to enter the password again over and over again... Hope someone can help! Thanks!

  • Why did my Apple TV password stop working suddenly and why does changing my iTunes account password online not fix the problem?

    My iTunes account password suddenly stopped working. Strangely, it still works when I sign into iTunes but does not work when I try to purchase a movie through Apple TV. I followed the instructions to change my password and that still didn't fix the problem. Anybody encounter this? What's frustrating is that Apple wants to charge me a fee for tech support. You mean I have to pay them to help me give them more money to buy temporary content through my Apple TV? Anywho, please assist if you can.

    Have you tried restarting, the Apple TV, your router and your mac or PC.

  • HT201248 app store  iTunes account password that is not mine.

    I have a new iphone5s, app store asks for an iTunes account password that is not mine. My correct ID is shown in the settings menu, Have signed out an back in, wiped phone and restored from old back-up but still asked for the random password.

    I had the same thing happen. I synced on my girlfriend's laptop, and when I logged into the App Store on my iPhone it prompted for her password (her Apple ID was prefilled). I plugged it back into her laptop, opened the iTunes store, and logged out of her account, then hit Sync on my iPhone. Resolved (but annoying).

  • ITunes account password and iCloud

    My partner and I have been using home sharing to access the same itunes library on my laptop.
    I have now enabled itunes Match and I wanted to enable my partner's laptop to access my itunes Match library now.
    I had a Mobile Me account which I migrated to the icloud sometime ago. I understand that I can log my partner's itunes library into my itunes account and that should enable access to the itunes Match library?
    However will that then give access to the rest of my icloud such as emails etc? Will the password be stored in the keychain?
    Ideally I would like to create a separate itunes account that we could both then use that is separate from my main icloud id and password but if I do that what will happen with access to all the purchases I already made using my icloud apple id?
    Is there a way of dealing with this without me having to give out my main icloud appleid account and password?
    Any ideas/help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Mike

    itunes match and icloud are separate services that a lot of people think they need the same apple ID for. 
    My recommendation:
    keep your icloud account (mail, contacts, calender... former mobileme) account information the same as it is currently.  I would change my username and password for the itunes account (via itunes on your laptop or destop) to a different username and password from your icloud [former mobileme] account in order to share your itunes stuff but not your mail, contacts, etc. 
    these two services are then able to be logged in separately on your apple devices (i have a separate icloud account than itunes account both on my iphone, so that I can share my media with my wife but have my own address book and email account on my iphone and she has her own on her iphone).  let me know if this is confusing

  • Reset iTunes account password but not accepted

    I have an iTunes account in the UK and in Australia. Someone gave me a ITunes gift card a year or so ago which I put into my account and spent some of. When I go to iTunes, log into the Australian store, it does not recognise my name/password combination. I have gone through the password reset process twice, each time providing a brand new never before used password. The system confirms successful password change. Caps Lock not on. When I go and log into the Australian store again, it indicates that I have not put the right combination to log in. My log in name is not an email address it is just a string of letters identifying my name as is appropriate.
    Can anyone help with this? Thanks, Andrew

    Sign out of your account on the iPad, restart the iPad, sign back into you account on the iPad and then try again in Tunes.

  • Why is it asking my mom and brother for my itunes account password when they have and are logged in their own account?

    When my mom and brother go to update their apps, it askes for my password for my itunes account. Yet they have their own accounts and they're signed into them for iCloud and for purchasing apps. It doesn't make sense to me and it was out of nowhere...

  • Update iTunes account  password/ID?

    Can't "update" anything since I can't get password correct. iPhone still has original Apple ID which I changed two years ago and when I request new password for it I don't receive anything from Apple. Are they using an old email address... how do I update iTunes data?

    Just update your AppleID.

    Because you created a new AppleID with that email address and you cannot use that email address to update your old AppleID.
    Change the new AppleID to another email address then update the old AppleID with the new email address.

  • Itunes account password incorrect on mac

    I recently changed my account password at appleid.account.com and updated the password on all my acounts and devices, however everytime I open itunes on my mac it tells me my password is incorrect.  I type in my the new password, go to my itunes account update my passord online and save, still no joy.  I'm obiviously missing  something and need an idea of where else my passwaord may be stored so I can fix this minor headache.

    It doesn't matter if the e-mail account is still active or not. The e-mail address she gave for the iTunes account simply acts as a username. And even if she changed the password to access the e-mail account at some point, her iTunes password would still be the same. (Unless she changed it there too.)She should try using the same username and password that she used with iTunes when setting up her account.

  • Unable to create iTunes account - postcode required

    I have a new iPhone 3GS and I want to sign up to iTunes to get apps etc. However, during the sign up process it asks for my address including my postcode. I live in Ireland where we have no postcodes. I tried my usual tricks of putting random numbers, writing "none" etc but it continues to say my postcode is invalid. I have an appleID which I was able to sign up for without a postcode.
    Can anyone help?

    Good luck there, I've also had a bad experience getting an iTunes account, yet impossible on my end. I'll be going to the apple store tomorrow and try to straight it out because so far its ridiculous.
    1st. Im in Malmo, so I set Sweden as the country, it asks me for a card (if I never ever buy anything from them, they would simply store my credit card information?), I live and work here, I pay everything with the card that Im using, yet it tells me its not a valid card...
    2nd, Im originally from Costa Rica, so I figure I'd try one of my older cards. The card validates now, but it now says my postal code is not valid... I mean, first it says my card is no good, and second that I dont know where I live?
    Im subscribing, hopefully someone will be able to help out, and if I get any answer tomorrow I'll be sure to post back.
