Sent an email in French from Apple to reset my password?

Hey,
I received an email from [email protected] in French saying:
Chère cliente, cher client,
Pour réinitialiser le mot de passe de votre identifiant Apple, cliquez sur le lien ci-dessous. Une page web s'affichera et vous pourrez alors créer un nouveau mot de passe.
Notez que le lien expirera trois heures après l'envoi de cet e-mail.
Which roughly translates to:
Dear Customer, dear client,
To reset the password of your Apple ID, click the link below. A web page will appear and you can create a new password.
Note that the link will expire three hours after sending this email.
I am however confused as for one. Im not French and two. I did not request to reset my ID? Any thoughts?

Strange.
Is your Apple ID with your password working ?
If yes do nothing.
If it is not working follow THE APPLE PAGE YOU OPEN YOURSELF TO ENTER YOUR ID SETTINGS and ask for a password change.
Do not click to the link on this mail.
If you wish just go with mouse on the link DO NOT CLICK and take note of the actual URL which will happen.
You can also report this mail to Apple

Why i cannot see email from apple to reset my password?

why i cannot see email from apple to reset my password?

We are fellow users, we won't know why. You've checked the spam folder as well as the inbox on your email account, and if you have a rescue email address on your account then you've checked that email account as well ? If you still can't find it then try requesting the reset email again
If re-requesting it doesn't get it either then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it for you.

I am receiving emails from apple to reset my password that I have not requested

Hi wondering if anyone could help. About 3 weeks ago I received an email from apple that my apple ID was used to download an app that was not from the device which is normally used. This was initiated from the United States, I am in n.ireland. As this was not me I followed the instructions & changed my password. However the past 2 days I have received 7 emails from apple on how to reset my apple ID that I did not initiate & am concerned that someone is trying to get access to my apple account. Has this ever happened anyone else? If so how did you deal with the problem as I can't seem to get through to apple to discus the matter. Thanks

That's very scary. They might do it, but I personally have never had Apple contact me re id's except on their site when signing in. I suggest you DO NOT respond until you have a phone conversation with Apple security. They can verify if they sent you the e-mail and why.
While it's very possible it's true,again, I suggest you not respond until you speak to someone at Apple. I've often read here that when people sign in they are not allowed to because "someone else has used the id" type of statement.
Also, you should be able to go to the app store and see what apps you have downloaded.
Though it could have been a free app, have you checked to see if any were bought with your id account?
I've gotten these types of e-mails from places like USPS and FedEx which look amazingly authentic and were from their website. I also received an odd e-mail from my cousin in Ireland last year that clearly was not from him. It was also sent to others in his family in Ireland. I e-mailed him that I only opened it because it had a .ie, but suggested he change... Days later I received mail from 'him' - same name, but at yahoo.com.
Again, I would call Apple. You can also report it at [email protected], but I would not settle for that given your situation. If nothing else, call Apple sales (sales depts. anywhere answer fast) and ask them to transfer you to security. Apple will not want anybody accessing their name, and while it's unlikely, it's not impossible that it is someone phishing.
Hope this helps and can you let the support community know your results by posting on this thread when you're done? Thank you.
Hope this helps.

I cannot sync my iphone music, i had used my i phone on another pc, now when i bought a song on this computer from the apple store, i have just been sent an email that says Your Apple ID, was just used to purchase "" by a computer or device not prev assoc

i cannot sync my iphone music, i had used my i phone on another pc, which died. Ive managed to save the hard drive and transfer stuff across. I ended up smashing my phone and could update all other stuff on restore but cant sync any music. It is all grey at the top of the screen. Ive re installed itunes and cleared all phone data. Now when i bought a song on this computer from the apple store, i have just been sent an email that says Your Apple ID, was just used to purchase (a song ) by a computer that had not been previously associated with that apple id. So do i have to tell apple now somehow i am using itunes on this pc, and if so how? Because i authorised it and it said this pc was one of 5 aujthorised. if anyone can be of assistance then great!

I'm having a similar problem. I had previously (over a year ago) purchased 2 episodes of Law & Order. Then about 2 months ago, I purchased the 3rd season of Sons of Anarchy. When I downloaded these episodes to my iPad, about a dozen full seasons of various shows popped up, too. No money was removed from my iTunes account & theses particular shows aren't in my iTunes library on my desktop. I've tried every which way to delete them from my ipad, but can't. I went to the Apple store & they suggested I contact expresslane.apple.com for help. I submitted my problem, via email Friday, as they asked, but have not received any response. Any suggestions on how to get rid of these "phantoms?".

Email requests purportedly from Apple asking for account verification details, This includes a request for everything from email address to bank account sort code. This can't be for real! Is it?

How can I receive an email from apple about reseting security questions?

I didn't receive email from Apple for reset security question

i didn't receive a mail from apple I want to reset my security question because I forgot it. Can you sent me that email now

If it hasn’t arrived after a few hours and isn’t in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Is the email I received from Apple really from Apple?

I received the following email and wonder if it really is from Apple:
Your Apple ID was just used to download Defender of the Crown from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.
Order Number: QEECVW211BD
Order total: 19.35 £
If you initiated this download, you can disregard this email. It was only sent to alert you in case you did not initiate the download yourself.
If you did not initiate this download, we recommend that you go to iTunes Payment Cancellation Form to change your password, then
See Apple ID: Tips for protecting the security of your account for further assistance.
Regards,
Apple
I did not click on the link in the email.
When I went to the iTunes store no 'Defender of the Crown' is not listed as download.
I have cancelled the Visa debit card connected to my account, but it's a nuisance because the next time I want to buy something I have to register my card again.
I'm confused!

It's a scam. The URL of the link is nothing to do with Apple, but is evidently a phishing attempt to trick you into giving your personal details. You were right not to follow it.
You could forward the email as an attachment to [email protected] so that they may be able to take action.

How can I find my email in Apple Mail from before my company switched hosting providers? People with Outlook have all of their old and new emails. My old emails have vanished from Apple Mail.

How can I find my email in Apple Mail from before my company switched hosting providers? People with Outlook in my company have all of their old and new emails.

Try looking in your User folder.
Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Mail/V2
If you prefer to make your User library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
Show User Library
You might want to bookmark the command. I have to use it again after every update. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

Have an ipad, have been trying to seset my password, but when I do I never get an email back from apple to reset it.

Have an ipad, cannot update because I forgotten my password. Have tried, but have never gotten an email back for Apple. There is another laptop in our home, and the icloud email address had been taken off of that laptop. My ipad has the same icloud address, is that keeping me from getting any email from apple? My email address is not with icloud, but it always comes up with an icloud email address. Any suggestions?

If you aren't receiving the email (if you have a rescue email address on the account then that is the email address that you are likely to see for the reset email), and you can't reset the password by answering the account's security questions on http://iforgot.apple.com, then try contacting Support in your country, after confirming your id and that it's your account they should be able to reset the password.

Email verification SPAM from Apple???

Hi everyone,
I just got this email that I suspect to be a spam from Apple..
I believe it is a spam but it is a very clever one..
can anyone confirm?

It's not Apple, it's a phishing attempt to try and get your iTunes account, and probably your payment details - you could forward the email to Apple : [email protected]
