Why am I not receiving the recovery email for my apple ID?

I could not remember my password for my Apple ID, so I used the iForgot feature and requested a recovery email to reset my password. I've done about 5 times and it keeps saying that the email was sent but I'm not getting any emails??
(And yes, I've checked all my email accounts, and the Spam folders as well--nothing from Apple regarding the password reset is there.)

Hello, eshara_a.  
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
I understand that your Apple ID needs to be reset, but you are not receiving the recovery email.  Since the spam folder has been checked, I would recommend seeing the section labeled Get Help in the article below.  
If these steps didn't help you change your password, contact Apple Support.
If you forgot your Apple ID password
Cheers, 
Jason H.

    Try checking your spam or junk mail folders.

    Are you able to login or recover information using the forgot account link?

  • Why am I NOT receiving the reset emails for my security questions?

    I've forgotten the answers to my apple id security questions, and am now unable to puchase any new music or apps because my settings require two step verification.
    Over the span of several months I have requested multiple emails to allow me to reset my security questions and I NEVER recieve them.
    Yes I have checked my :Spam, and Apple folder.
    I requested resets for both my apple id password and login and recieved those emails without problem, but not once have I recieved the reset email for my security questions!
    Can anybody help me with this, or do I really have to call and or go down to an apple store to sort this out?

    They are going to your Rescue email address, which is not the same as your Apple ID address. It is whatever you set it to be when you set up the account. You can contact Apple's Account Security Team as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

    I can receive apple emails when resetting password, Apple support etc, why can't I receive the verification one?
    Help would be appreciated, thank you

    How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
    Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

  • I'm not receiving the AppleId email when I hit Forgot my password, how do I fix this?

    I can’t recall my password for a different iTunes Id and I’ve went to AppleId.apple.com, pressed the ‘forgot your password’ button, it brought me to a new page with my email, I’ve made sure that I was my email, I hit Email authentication, and then it brings me to a page that says: “ Email has been sent”, but I’m not receiving any email in my Gmail account. I’ve made sure that I have no filters for Apple or iTunes and checked my Spam, and Trash folders and I see nothing.

    Hi CoalBeans,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resource below explains what to do if you do not receive the verification email for your Apple ID.
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201455
    When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account. If you can't find the email after we send it, these steps can help.
    Search for the email
    We'll send the email from "Apple," so you can quickly search for it. If it isn't in your inbox, check your folders. If a spam filter or email rule moved the email, it might be in the Spam, Junk, Trash, Deleted Items, or Archive folder.
    Make sure you're checking the correct email account
    If you're looking for a password reset email, make sure you're checking the correct email inbox. It will either be your primary Apple ID email address or a separate rescue email address that you added to your account. 
    If you're looking for a verification email, you can sign in to My Apple ID and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it and send another verification email.
    Resend the email
    To resend a reset email, repeat the steps to reset your password or security questions, and we'll send an email to your rescue or primary Apple ID email address.
    To resend the verification email, go to My Apple ID, select Manage your Apple ID, then sign in. Click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify, and we'll send an email to that address.
    Make sure that you're getting email
    If you're not getting any email, you might need to contact your email service provider for help. You can also use these steps to get help receiving email at OS X Mail or an iCloud email address. 
    Contact us
    Go to System Status and see if Apple ID is available. If you still can't find the reset email or verification email, contact Apple Support.

  • Why am I not receiving the email to reset my password?

    Why am I not receiving the email to reset my apple id password?

    Has anyone received an answer to this? It seems that a lot of us are having the same issue. In the past i had no trouble receiving emails to reset my password but for the past week I havne't been able to login, my security questions didn't work and I haven't received any of the emails to reset my password. I've created a new Account but would rather  get into my old account because it's linked to my perfered email address. Hum..
    Any help from the community would be much apprecated! thanks!

  • I am not receiving the verification email when trying to add an email account

    I am not receiving the verification email when trying to add an email account to facetime and iMessage. Is there something else I can do?

    Hi,
    I don't ever remember getting an email when Adding an account.
    Apple seems to verify it some other way (a self test to see if it is valid ? an actual email ?)
    I tried adding an older @mac.com account that is not a valid email (gained when MobileMe was the Apple service and the @Mac.com registration was used for iChat names).
    I then tried  to add a Yahoo one.
    This got past the first part and said an email has been sent.
    As you say this has never arrived.
    ( checked the web Site for Yahoo Mail as well as my Mail App.)
    In each case I also checked the Spam and Junk folders in both places.
    I then tried an iCloud ID.
    (FaceTime seems to treat the Original Apple ID and the iCloud issued email as separate IDs)
    I did not get and email (Although it said it was sent) I did get a Pop up for the FaceTime app asking if I wanted to add an email and a second for the actual email itself.  (It turned out it added an @me.com email also issued by iCloud before the @icloud.com was issued.
    This is much the way iMessages adds emails when you add the emails to  an iPhone, the Mac version gets pop ups.
    I recently had something similar in Messages that might be related.
    In Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) it seemed it could be any Apple ID that was used.
    In Messages 8 it seems this has to be an iCloud linked one.
    The @mac.com one I used above could not be added to iMessages either when I tried it about two months ago.
    It might be one I have removed the creating/Recovery email so that i could create another Apple ID.
    The name continues to work in Messages as an AIM valid screen name but I could not add it as the iMessages account and got sent to iCloud to "register" it but ran into problems that I have not sorted out yet.
    EDIT.
    Checked the Apple ID site and the @mac.com email I used has no linked Alternative/recovery email.

    I am trying to reset password, but I did not receive the promised email that should allow me to reset. Can you help?

    Check your junk or spam mail folder.  Also, if you established a rescue email, it could be going to that email address.  If all else fails:
    Contact applecare and ask for account security.

  • I am not receiving the "rescue email" on my primary ID

    Looks like I forgot my password on my primary Apple ID (using one of my kids' right now) and I am not receiving the "rescue emails" after it says they've been sent.
    So I tried to guess the password too many times and now Im locked out till later this evening.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Start here, and reset your security questions, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't help or you don't have a rescue address, you might try contacting Apple throughiTunes Store Support

  • HT5577 In dont receive my recovery message for mi Apple ID on my recovery email, what can I do?

    Created an Apple ID for my mom can't seem to get the recovery email for the password

    OK. firstly I'll say that Apple's ID thing is weird. Currently - I can't synch my notes accross devices because I don't have a .icloud address even though everything else work just fine with my regular appleID... w+f?
    Anyway - you can get around this problem with the application loader by just opening the epub with the app store application directly - no need to go through application loader at all.
    two finger tap -> open with -> app store
    now... where did they put iBooks for OSX?
