Fortunately Apple has thought you might forget your ID Ken and they put together a good solid procedure to gain back your Apple access. We have detail instructions on our website. But I will do a quick walk through.
- Go to My Apple ID and select Reset your password.
- Enter your Apple ID, then click Next. If you don't remember your Apple ID or email address, choose Forgot your Apple ID.
- After you enter your Apple ID, there are three ways you can change your password:
- Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
- Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
- Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
Answer your security questions
- Select “Answer security questions,” then click Next.
- Select your birth date, then click Next.
- Answer your security questions.
- Set a new password and select Reset Password.
Use email authentication
- Select Email authentication, then click Next. Apple will send the email to your primary or rescue email address.
- Open the email and select the link to change your password.
- When the My Apple ID page opens, set a new password and select Reset Password.
Use these steps if you didn't get the email or can't find it.
Use two-step verification
- Enter your Recovery Key.
- Choose a trusted device. We'll send your device a verification code.
- Enter the verification code.
- Set a new password and select Reset Password.
If you permanently lost your recovery key or access to your trusted device, you can't change your password.
