Netflix setup to someone elses email by mistake, and cant remember password

I just registered to netflix on my appletv and missed the word "the" off the start of my email address, but registration was successful, its linked payments via my apple acct to somone elses email, and I can't remember the password.
I know it worked because my tv logs in, I can watch films, but now can't access it on any other devices
How would I get the email address changed when I don't know the password and can't access password reset emails?

    my apple ID is showing someone elses email address and not mine so when i want to buy or update apps it brings this other email address up. please can someone help how do i put it back to my email address?

    First go here - https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and login under the manage tab.  Check your information and be sure it is all correct.
    An AppleID is nothing more than an email address, so if you see another email address in the store, then someone has logged in with a different AppleID than yours.  Did you let someone else use your iPhone?

               Please help me.

    If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

  • HT1920 I originally opened my acct on one email address then switched to another. My PC crashed, had to replace my hard drive. I can not longer access turnes under old email... do not remember password.  what do i do

    I originally open my iTunes account using a comcast email account, I then switched to a verizon account.  I do not remember the password associated with the account when it was opened under the comcast email and no longer have the comcast email account.  My PC recently crashed and I had to replace the hard drive.  I have my saved back up files on my new drive...  but can not access the iTunes purchased when on my comcast email address and have no way of getting emails on comcast address to get password required to access old purchases.  How do I get the use of these older song purchases?

  • Someone remote wiped my mac and put a password

    Someone stole my Me account info and remote wiped my laptop running 10.7.2 Now there is a password when I try and start the computer. They also deleted my Me account, and when I try and recover my password Apple tells me I dont have an account. I tried booting from the Lion recovery disk and also from a Snow Leopard install disk and both just get to the password screen. I accept the fact that all my data is gone, but need a way to restore my mac to a working condition.

    Do you have your CDs that came with your Mac, an upgrade CD, or USB thumb drive (10.7/10.8)?  You can reboot the computer while holding down Option, select the restore disc (CD or Thumb drive).  Let the computer boot.  Go to Utilities>Password Reset, and you can reset your password without loosing any data (to my knowledge).

  • Icloud account under advanced mail has someone elses email address

    Micloud is nearly full and when i have gone into my icoud account information under advanced mail i can see an email account i dont recognise, has the account been hacked? Thanks

    No.  Here's what happened.  When you or someone else using this Apple ID in iCloud enabled the 'Mail' option in Settings > iCloud for that Apple ID, there was a prompt to create an iCloud.com email address.  Only someone with the Apple ID & password can do that.
    If you think your Apple ID has been compromised, immediately change your password at iforgot.apple.com.

  • When I click an app update brings up someone elses email address?

    Hi all
    Need help with changing an email address, I have tried everything.
    I have an app with an update notification but i cant change the email address....

    Now, that is odd, at home we download content bought by different accounts, (my kids' wife, and myself) whe I delete something that was not bought with my account, is over, no more update alerts nor anything like it.
    Perhaps, if you backup your iPod in iTunes and Reset, Update and restore might fix the problem.
    Under the apps tab, scroll down until you find the one in question and uncheck it, so it will not be installed again.

  • Why is my email address being replaced with someone elses email address when I send it?

    In my thunderbird account, we have 4 email accounts set up. There used to be fifth one that I have removed because she no longer works here. However, when I send an email through thunderbird, the recipients do not see my name or email address. It shows up as if it's coming from the woman who previously worked here. How can this happen if I have removed her email address from thunderbird?

    What's the exact wording of the error message?

  • Someone elses email was in my iCloud backup?!?!

    So I decided to restore my iPhone 5 to factory and then restore my iCloud back up.  Once I did that as it was restoring it prompted for my iTunes password to restore my apps, after I entered it another box popped up asking for the password for iTunes account: [email protected].....  I HAVE NO CLUE WHO THAT IS.  It wanted that password to restore apps?  I clicked cancel, all my apps are back, but I got a little worried/suspicious when that 2nd email popped up when I have no clue who it is I've googled the email.  No real help online.  Just wondering how it got associated with my iTunes account..I logged into iTunes and iCloud and dont see that other email anywhere in my info. Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    The same email was attached to my account.  [email protected]  I would like an explanation too, considering I've had now two iphones stolen from me in the last 4 years.
