What is a password recovery email address

Hi,
I am looking at the info page on setting up clien email http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/setup-pop-imap-email-accounts.html in the Creat email accounts for users section, it says, "Enter the new user email address, name and password recovery email address." What is the password recovery email address? Also would the new user email address be the users name@my_domain_name.com? Thanks.
Barbara Parkman

Hi Barbara,
Keep in mind the Muse webBasic plans do not include email.
The password recovery email address is an email address that they could have their password emailed to in case they forget it. Obviously sending it to the same email address wouldn't work as they wouldn't be able to get it.
Yes, the email address would be @clientdomain.com ....
As a side note I recommend hosting the email with where ever they bought the domain from and only use Business CAtalyst for the site itself.
Here is why ...

I would like to change my apple ID to what is apparently my "recovery" email address but I don't see any option to change my recovery email (gmail). Whats up with that?

Why do I not see an option to change my recovery email? I would like to use what appearently is my current "recovery" email as my new Apple ID but ID manager will not let me.

If you mean your rescue email address, from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312:
You can edit or delete your rescue email address at My Apple ID. To edit your rescue email address:
Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
Click "Manage your account"
When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
Click Password & Security
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so.
After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.

This message keeps popping up at the top of the page: "Hey, this is important: We don't have a password recovery email address or phone number for your account. If you lose access, we may not be able to help you. Add info now |Dismiss" How do I stop it?

I have provided the information asked for but the message keeps popping up.

Doesn't sound like that message is coming from Firefox, Mozilla wouldn't need a phone number for anything. Firefox does use an email address for the Firefox Sync feature, but not a phone number - the Sync feature is automated.
Please provide a screenshot of that message, including the URL of the website where that happens. <br />

Click here and use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or if you're the device's original owner, take it and its purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store.

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
 Cheers, Tom

How can I edit my recovery email address if my password had been locked?, How can I edit my recovery email address if my password had been locked?

How can I edit my recovery email address if my password had been locked? I couldn't receive the reset my password email because I think my recovery email address was invalid.

The idea of a Recovery email is so the rightful owner accomplishes the recovery, so I don't know of a process to edit that address if you don't know the Apple ID and associated Password.

Hi, I try to change my password, but I forgot the security questions, and the recovery email address is not my current email (I did setup other two email). Could you please help?

If you don't have access to your rescue email account then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset (you won't be able to change it until you can answer 2 of your questions)
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to update your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

HT5312 What if I forgot my security questions and the recovery email address I had chosen was deleted

So I made my iTunes account about 5 years ago and now it wants me to reverify it, but I forgot my security questions. This wouldn't be a big problem, however the recovery email address I had set back when I made the account no longer exists. Help!

You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

How do i reset my security questions when the recovery email address is wrong?

My brother has managed to mess up his Apple ID. We have Apple ID and password but everytime a paid App is trying to download it asks for security questions which he has forgotten the answers to. The recovery email address he has entered is not correct to nay email account we have in the family and I haven't a clue what to do next? There is a £15 voucher on this account which we would like to use.
Any help/advice would be much appreciated
Many thanks

First try:
Can I change the answers to the security questions for my Apple ID?
Yes. You can change the answers to the security questions provided when you originally signed up for your Apple ID. Go to My Apple ID and click Manage your Apple ID. Sign in with your Apple ID name and password, go to the section Password and Security and click Reset your security information.

Click on "Account Management" and then on "Forgotten Security Questions". That will take you to a page where you can talk to iTunes Support right away, or you can schedule a call to talk to them. They should be able to get you squared away so that you can log on to the old Apple ID.

Recovery email address cannot be my email address?

So, iTunes is asking me to enter a "Rescue Email Address", which will be used to send me instructions should security issues arise. Fine. I enter my email address, and it gives me the error saying my rescure email address cannot be my email address.
Uh... what?!
How the heck am I supposed to use the recovery email feature if my recovery email address cannot be my email address? I'm supposed to have password recovery info sent to someone else and have them forward it to me?!
Oh, and it won't let me actually buy anything or even download anything for free from iTunes until I set this up. Great. I used to love using the iTunes Store, but alas, I'm locked out now, until I figure how to enter my email address without entering my email address. I'll do that once I have both tea and no tea...

Ah, good, I found a work-around. Since I use a Gmail address, and Gmail treats "thisthat" and "this.that" as the same email address, I was able to fool iTunes into thinking my email address was not my email address, and this allowed it to accept it as my email address.
This is the most spectacularly stupid requirement for a rescue email address I've ever heard of, but at least I can use iTunes again...

Appleid, recovery email address and security questions were hacked.

My son's recovery email address and security questions were hacked. How can we get these changed so he can purchase more apps? Currently he is being asked to answer security questions that do no pertain to him (like what were you doing on such and such date - he wasn't even born yet). The email address in the recovery section is r********@answers.com. We don't know who this is, but it appears they have hacked his account. He has an itunes balance and I don't want him to lose it.

You or your son will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
