Why don't they add an update where there is a password recovery feature?

ive lost many of my apple tech and its gone to waste losing finding them because i forget my password. why don't they have a system to recover your password?

They do. If you forget your Apple ID password, you go to Manage your Apple ID and click on Reset Password and answer your Security Questions....
Is that what you are referring to?

  • Now that iPad has multitasking gestures, why don't they just add a gesture for going back and forward in safari?

    Now that iPad has multitasking gestures, why don't they just add a gesture for going back and forward in safari? Just like in a mac, with the multitouch gestures. The osx Lion got the launchpad idea from the ios, so why don't the ios gets something from osx?

  • Why don't they put how much usage each update will take.  I am on broadband and not sure if I have enough GBs left to do an update.

    I have broadband and it just cost me $75 OVER my monthly bill to download Yosemite and the update for iphotos.  NOW, I have notice that it needs two more updates.  Why don't they tell us how much data will be used with an update so we can plan when and which updates to do now, and some later?  The old system they had, they did tell and I was able to ration out which ones to update over the months. 

    It all depends on how much you'll use the iPhone for internet access. Personally, I use it frequently (work email, browsing with Safari, the Amazon.com app, etc.,) and I use 200-300 MB per month. My wife does not use her iPhone for much outside of email, weather, etc., occasional Internet browsing, and she uses 40-50 MB per month. So, you should be fine with 150 MB.
    Hope that helps...

  • Why don't my apps automaticaly update? i keep trying to turn it on under settings but it will not stay on

    why don't my apps automaticaly update? i keep trying to turn it on under settings but it will not stay on

    Sounds like we have a similar problem.  Four days ago I was playing music through a wireless Bose speaker via bluetooth and everything was fine.  Then I was texting while listening and got 2 texts about the same time as I was typing one and my phone went black.  I pushed the home button and it worked, went into my texts and all were there.  However ever since then the time isn't right, so it can't keep time no matter what I do.  The bluetooth works only at times, the wifi keeps jumping on and off, sometimes my data won't work and the other day I couldn't even turn it off, so had to wait until it died.  The battery life display at that moment wasn't correct either.  Took to Verizon, they couldn't help.  Suggested a factory reset, which I did last night and still the same issues!  One day I couldn't even text my husband on his iPhone.  Just wouldn't work at all.  Did everything suggest and still not good.  Seems like after stalking these pages today a lot of people are having this problem in Dec/Jan and of course also I'm 3 weeks out of my 1 year warranty and so were many others, by days.  Very strange, and all on the 5C.  What did you do?  Is it working now?

  • IS IT IMPOSSIBLE? My iTunes library says 4149 songs, my iPhone says 4148 songs, and my iPad says 4147 songs.  Why don't they match?!  How can I fix it???

    My iTunes library says 4149 songs, my iPhone says 4148 songs, and my iPad says 4147 songs.  Why don't they match?!  How can I fix it???

    Yes. I selected all songs and checked them (in case I missed a few) and synced.  I have also tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it.  I tried selecting all songs and unchecking them, re-syncing my phone (which didn't get rid of the songs on my phone like i thought it would), then selected all songs again, checked them, and resynced again--nothing changed.  I went to the iTunes store and selected "Check for all available downloads" and it gave me the message"All purchases have been downloaded for this account."  I checked for duplicates, deleted a few and resynced.  This reduced the number of songs, but it still doesn't match what the iTunes library says...I don't know what to try next...

  • My UI preferences are set to identical settings in Illustrator and InDesign, why don't they look the same?

    My UI preferences are set to identical settings in Illustrator and InDesign ("scale to lower supported scale factor") and AI looks perfect, ID is too big. Why don't they look the same if the settings are the same? Driving me CRAZY. I have my windows scaling factor at 124% and it needs to stay enlarged, otherwise nothing else on my system will be readable. The inconsistency of the workspaces is so annoying.

    Hello billwoodard11,
    Thanks for the question. If your computer is not compatible with HD 1080p content, you should receive a prompt stating so - but should still be able to download the content for use on other devices. For more information, check out this resource:
    Purchasing and viewing HD videos in iTunes - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201850
    How to purchase, download, or view HD 1080p content
    iTunes 10.6 by default is set to purchase, download, and playback HD content in 720p. You must change your local preference setting if you prefer to download, purchase, and playback HD content in 1080p. Depending on your computer's hardware configurations, you may be unable to purchase, rent, or playback content in 1080p. iTunes may display the following dialog:
    On Mac or PC
    Download the latest version of iTunes. You can download iTunes for free.
    From the iTunes menu, choose iTunes > Preferences > Store (for PC, choose Edit > Preferences > Store).
    Next to "When downloading High Definition videos, prefer:" set your preference to 1080p1.
    Click OK. Now, when you purchase or download HD content, your computer will always download in 1080p, when available.
    Depending on your computer's hardware limitations, you may be unable to purchase, rent, or view HD content from the iTunes Store. If you are trying to view HD video on an external display, the display must have a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI) and support HDCP.

  • Why don't they have a 16gb 5g iPod touch?

    Why don't they have a 16gb 5g iPod touch?

    the reason is that people are using more and more memory so because the pictures are higher in resolution they use more memory with the retina display so they need the extra memory to store more photos/applications/movies and of course videos that you record.

  • HT5678 Why don't they show how large the update is

    WHAT AN ANNOYING WAY TO DO BUSINESS IN ASKING A QUESTION.
    Just upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion and am checking on updates. So they have this update for Safari, but NO WHERE does it show how large the update is like they USED to do in Snow Leopard. WHY?

  • For the iPad 2. Why don't they make a recording app just like the iPod or iPhone ?

    I have an iPad 2. I want to know why there isn't a recording app that isn't on for factory apps? Can they make an update or something for one?

    I'm sure they "can" do it.  It's up to Apple if they "will."

  • Why don't apple add animated gifs support on their products

    It's so annoying that their products still don't support animated gifs it will be great if they added this feature. And it will be great if they add Bluetooth file share.

  • My question was how do you control bass and treble on your Mac pro? he act of the matter is you can't. Why don't they just say that rather than reading all of the ********

    My question was how do you control bass and treble n a Mac Pro with the latest software.
    The answer is you can't
    In summary why don't you say that upfront?
    Instead of reading a bunch of crap that says nothing

    just a suggestion: try soundflower or Audio Hijack Pro. I know with the 2nd one, you can control the bass, treble, and all that, with anything that makes sound, from itunes, to Safari, DVD player, Skype ( I guess) and other stuff. Worth the $, IMO, so in answer to your question  dbumgardner1, no, no you can't.  I suppose in that sense, Windows has us at a loss. We also need 2nd party stuff to play BluRay's, too. However, I haven't seen any Macintosh viruses (virii?) for a long long time....
    so, there's that....

  • Smart Mailboxes: Why don't they update in real time?

    I have a Smart Mailbox that shows me any Unread messages i have. As i read these messages, they become Read messages, yet they remain in the Smart Mailbox. Is there any way to initiate a real time update to these so that I am not required to switch Smart Mailboxes to initiate the update.
    Not very 'smart' are they…
    Any solutions are welcome.d

    That all sounds correct on paper. But in real life it just doesn't work out that way. Let's say I have 20 Unread messages in my Unread SmartMailbox. As I read each message they become Read messages. The messages do not automatically clear this mailbox. They stay there in a Read status inside the Unread Smart Mailbox. The only way I can update the mailbox is by switching over to another mailbox, any mailbox, and back to my Unread Smart Mailbox and then it properly shows only Unread messages.
    And that is the correct action...the update trigger is when you move out of one and into another (acts as a confirmation that you're done).
    Seems appropriate and a small price to pay. It would seem to be a burden if otherwise as it would always be working while you were trying to read....can't have everything at once

  • Problem importing photos after the new Photos update:  When I drag photos from my desktop, why don't they don't replace the previously imported photos in "Last Import".

    When I drag photos from my desktop to the new Photos icon, they don't replace the previously imported photos in "Last Import".

    After several attempts, I now find that this is working for me.  I wasn't able to open the IMPORT folder in Photos until I clicked on "Close" from File Menu. Once I was able to open the IMPORT folder and select the photos for import, the new photos appeared in "Last Import."

    802.11n requires multiple antennas. The Macs compatible with the AirPort Extreme card do not have those antennas.
