Resetting AppleID password

I am trying to reset my AppleID password and when clicking on 'send new password via email' iTunes comes back with, that a new password has been sent.
However, when I am going into my email account, there is no email from iTunes.
Tried this about 10 times with no luck...
Anyone with some guidance here on how to reset my account?

First, check your rescue email account. If you asked that it come to your regular account, then check in your Spam folder. It can take several hours to get a reply.

Resetting AppleID password without email

A friend lost (stolen?) both her iPad and doesn't know her Apple ID password. The process for resetting the password requires an email loop, which means an email regarding account setup & access can be received by the lost iPad - NOT GOOD! Once her AppleID account access is restored, she wants to use Find My Phone to find the lost iPad.
So how to reset AppleID password without exposing confidential info via an email to an AWOL iPad? Can it all be done on an Apple web site? She is way too far from an Apple Store to go in for this.

Apple ID security issues -
Account security issues almost always require you to speak directly to an
Apple representative to securely establish your identity as the account
holder. You can set it up so that Apple calls you, either immediately or at a
time convenient to you.

Why does the iTunes AppleID system refuse to work properly without the need to reset the password every time I open iTunes for use?

Alright so here is the issue. When I first started using iTunes I created my AppleID. I locked it in to remember my password and authorize my computer so that I would NEVER HAVE TO ENTER IT AGAIN. So years pass, no problem. Then "ITUNES 11" come on everyone lets upgrade or you can't proper use the iTunes Store. Seriously it wouldn't let me access the store. Go Figure. So I upgrade simple right? No. It really isn't when iTunes 11 rolled out it was riddled with minor bugs that made the experience annoying so I did a rollback and live without the store for awhile.
About a year passes and I try again this time upgrading iTunes through a COMPLETE fresh install, again I did what had done the first time I logged my AppleID and reauthorized my computer. Hurrah other than getting use to the new UI it ran perfectly. Yes Finally! Right? Again.... No. No more than 2 or 3 software updates later suddenly my password for my AppleID is incorrect I was like "Okay?" and re-entered it thinking the big update cleared my settings.
Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
I was like okay maybe the user agreement change and we all need to reset passwords and re-accept the EUA. So I go through the process to create a new password successfully and reset my AppleID in iTunes with the new password. Come back a few weeks later it happens again this time I enter my new password and what do I get?
Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
So I first do a repair install to my iTunes than reset my password this time NOT setting it to remember password. Great everything works fine again password even matched my Home CompID so that I could NEVER lose it well come a few days later I try to use the store and what happens?
Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
to try to make my Long story a little shorter....
This has been going on for the better part of 3 years I have almost completely dropped iTunes which has the better store library for Goggle Play Music who's store library isn't even a third the size iTunes has because their system works and my log-in is my e-mail. I repeatedly completely uninstalled iTunes and wiped it from my registry in hope a clean install would fix the problem but it never does.
My OS is Vista Home Premium Edition 32-bit and no picking on my OS I been working to get a new computer but that isn't happening anytime soon so I work with what I got.

Even removing the .xml files doesn't make a difference. Also, I now installed another update of iTunes, but still having the same problem, and this time there are no .xml files or preference files whatsoever in the Application Data and Local Settings\Application Data iTunes folders. It seems like for some reason iTunes is unable to create these. What should I do?

I recently created a new Appleid and then the password to my old Appleid suddenly did not work. When I tried to reset the password I do not receive the email with the link and Apple does not either recognize my birthday. What to do?

Reset my AppleID password, but the iTunes Store doesn't recognize it.

I reset my AppleID password, and it works fine to purchase apps directly from my iPhone. iTunes, however, will not let me log into the iTunes Store using the password; the dialog box to enter your username / password just keeps coming up.
I've tried quitting and relaunching iTunes, and restarting the computer (MacBook Pro 2.3GHz Intel Core i7, OSX 10.9.3).
Any ideas how to get iTunes to recognize my AppleID password?

Hello Brian,

TS2446 I have reset my password but the App store is still popping up a message that my appleID has been disabled

I am trying to install an app from the app store and because I have multiple apple IDs (liek many others) I tapped in the wrong password and got the "your appleID has been disabled" pop p. I have now reset the password again but the pop up still appears. Any suggestions please?
many thanks

full marks to apple support for resolving this quickly and painlessly, at least after stumbling through the security questions and identity verification. So many passwords on so many devices and apps these days...

Resetting admin password using AppleID

I've been trying to help out a friend who is trying to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but can't because they've forgotten their admin / user password.
I found this article about how to reset it by using your AppleID:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4798
However, he gets as far as System Prefs > Users & Groups > Change (to the right of the AppleID) and is prompted for a Password (I assume his AppleID password, but apparently its rejecting it.)
Not sure why (I'm already running ML perhaps), but when I click on Change I don't get prompted for a password, and am able to remove or add Apple IDs in there.
Any ideas how to sort this out much appreciated. (Assuming he's using the correct AppleID password!)
Thanks.

Thanks Carolyn - that was the article I found, and clicked on 'Resetting the original Administrator account password' and then 'Reset your user password with your AppleID'.
Which is where we ran into trouble - on my machine I can change my AppleID in Users & Groups without entering a password, but my friend was prompted for a password at that stage.

AppleID password reset pain

I'm just trying to reset my AppleID password, but the link is never mailed to me.

Sadly, this link doesn't work to get me to the reporting page. Once I click on the link for my country (UK), the bowser (chrome) is trying to load something but the ball just spins forever. I just tried it in Safari and the same respone. It's trying to load the page: https://getsupport.apple.com/Issues.do

AppleID password reset without consent

Just concerned that my AppleID password was reset without my consent- I was asleep at the time! Tried updating apps on my iPhone today to be confronted with the login screen. Tried logging in...no joy. Hopped on my PC to find an email stating my password had been reset the previous evening. The support page has no "seek account help here" so the community is the last resort. Obviously there's a failing somewhere...

AppleID Password being mysteriously reset

Hi all,
Every once in a while, I get an e-mail notifying me that my password has been changed. Now, obviously the first suspicion is that my account is compromised, although the 'hacker' has so far downloaded three free apps (so nothing of monetary value). Here's the thing: I am the only one using my computer. I run NoScript on Firefox to prevent clickjacking. I don't use the same password on other sites. I have never told it to anyone, and even my closest friends and family would not be able to guess my security answers. No other computers are authorized through iTunes. I have run anti-virus and several malware detectors, to no avail. I'm pretty cautious in my browsing (e.g. Facebook and YouTube, not 1337warez or sketchyporn.com). It's not a big deal to fix, and so far no harm done, but it is kind of starting to worry me.
The upshot is that this is either the weirdest glitch ever, or I'm missing something. I'd be grateful if anyone could suggest something. Thanks!

Update: After reading around a bit more, I figured that the problem was with my e-mail rather than my AppleID. I haven't changed the password since way back in the dark ages of dial-up, so, even being careful, that's a lot of time in which to make a mistake. So I changed the password.
Long story short, I'm now getting 'Here's how to change your AppleID password' messages instead of 'your password was changed'. Those stopped a couple of days ago, so I think the e-mail password change did the trick.
