Hi all



I am using iPhone for longtime. My icloud account  is ***@icloud.com.



I forget my password and I have had tried to recover it. I got the code in my mobile no. However I am still unable to login.



Kindly help in this matter. I am unable to use any new application without password. 



Without any new application, this mobile has not much role other than call received and contact to any person.



I am looking forward to hearing from you.



Regards,



Shipra

Hi shipra16,

Welcome to the Apple Community where some of us do our best to help each other.


I'm not sure which password you want to recover.


If you forgot your passcode on your iPhone:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204306


If it is you iCloud Password that you forgot, that would most likely be the same as your Apple ID.

(Your Apple ID is used for all sorts of Apple Services like iTunes, App Store, Music, iCloud & etc.)

Here's the link to Apple ID log-in:

If you forgot your Apple ID password

https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT201487


I hope you find what you need amongst the links above

Else

Please feel free to "Post" here again

Or
