If you forgot your Apple ID login or password?

Every user has at least once forgotten their login or password for their email, social network account or Wi – Fi router. It is difficult to remember all the combinations, especially when they are different everywhere. But you must admit: the problem is easily solved. It is much more unpleasant to forget the password for your Apple ID account , without which the user actually loses access and control over their Apple devices . To prevent this from happening, let’s look at the most common problems logging into Apple ID and how to solve them.

How to recover Apple ID ?

Let us remind you that Apple ID is your username in iCloud, App Store, Apple Music and other Apple services. A shared account allows a user to sync their Apple devices and the information on them. If you have forgotten your account login, follow the prompts below. By the way, the algorithm of actions on all Apple devices will be virtually identical.

The first way to find out your Apple ID .

1. Open Settings on your Apple device.
2. Select the section called “Name, phone numbers, e-mail” or go to “Content and purchases”. In both cases, you will see your Apple ID login.

The second way to find out your Apple ID .

1. Go to the apple website . com. This can be done from Mac , iPad , iPhone .
2. In the window that opens, click “Forgot your Apple ID or password?”
3. In the next window, confirm your intention to restore your Apple ID by clicking the “Find it” button.
4. Next, enter information to find your Apple ID, including your first name, last name, and email address. After this you will receive the necessary information.

How to reset AppleID ?

If any iSpace readers have forgotten their Apple ID password, we have two suggestions for what to do next. Choose what seems easier to you.

The first way to reset your Apple ID password

1. Open your device’s Settings.
2. Click on your name with avatar.
3. Go to the “Password and Security” section.
4. Activate the “Change Password” item.
5. Next, the system will ask you to enter the passcode that you usually enter to unlock your device. We hope you haven’t forgotten him.
6. In the new window, enter your new password.

The second way to reset your Apple ID password .

1. Go to the apple website . com. This can be done from any device.
2. In the window that opens, click “Forgot your Apple ID or password?”
3. Next, enter your Apple ID login, as well as the code from the image on the screen.
4. In the new window, enter the phone number to which your Apple ID is linked.
5. Next, the system will prompt you to reset your password and send a message with instructions to all your Apple devices that are logged into iCloud.
6. All you have to do is open the notification and come up with a new password.

How to unlock Apple ID using Trusted Contacts?

This method was invented just for those users who know for sure: memory is not their strong point. If you also often forget passwords, you will have to be proactive – you won’t be able to take our advice after the fact.

1. Go to your device’s Settings.
2. Click on your name at the top of the screen.
3. Go to the “Password and Security” section.
4. Click on the “Account Recovery” option.
5. Click on the plus sign to “Add a contact.”
6. Select a person from your contacts list.

Needless to say, this should be a person you trust unconditionally? For example, a family member or close friend. You can select up to 5 trusted individuals who have devices running iOS 15, iPadOS 15, macOS Monterey, or newer versions. If you forget your account password, you can contact the selected contact and request an unlock code from them. With it, you can reset your Apple ID password and generate a new one.

We also recommend setting up two-factor identification and a recovery key (these functions are highlighted with a green frame on the screenshot). In the first case, you will specify verified devices and phone numbers that will be used to verify your identity when logging in. In the second, you will receive a 28-digit code that will help you restore your data if you lose access to your account. Keep this code in a safe place – this is important.
