Dec 26, 2014 9:46 AM in response to andyhldnby Roger Wilmut1,Your @me.com and @icloud.com are the same thing if the text before the '@' is the same and therefore have the same password.
Go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com . Click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. If you have any problems with that try this form: https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

Yes my .me.com is different from my .icloud.com email. I think I see how to change the .icloud.com password (that one I know),
but the URL's you gave do not lead me to the results I need to change the .me.com password.
I thought I remember a similar situation a while back. That solution offered a way to input the email address you wanted
to find the password to and then somehow offered a page to where one goes to change it. I am pretty sure it was not how
to change ones Apple ID, but then if memory were still good I would not need help.

Dec 26, 2014 12:16 PM in response to andyhldnby Roger Wilmut1,If your @me.com ID doesn't have a non-Apple email address associated with it then Apple can't send you a new password, since they can only send it to the @me.com address which you can't access. In this case you will have to contact Support by the route I indicated above.

Dec 26, 2014 12:44 PM in response to Roger Wilmut1by andyhldn,Again thanks for sharing your knowledge. I guess I will have to resort to calling Apple.
Not the worst experience in the world, just seems it takes forever.
