how can i change my me.com email password

Hi, I believe I may have solved your problem, as I had the same issue. Please see the thread below.

Hi, I have just had the same problem and kind of worked it out myself. Go to http://appleid.apple.com as others have suggested and there will be an option to generate an app specific password. This is for any app or service that is outside of apple. I use Outlook for my me.com email address and all of a sudden it stopped working and asked for a password. I kept trying my password for my apple id, which didn't work. I then inserted the password from the app specific password option into the email settings and the emails started to work again. I hope this helps.

If you have an @me.com address then you have an iCloud account for which the sign-in is an Apple ID which is the me.com address. Got to http://appleid.apple.com and sign in with the @me.com address and appropriate password and you will be able to change the password. It's advisable to sign out of any devices which are signed into this account before you do this, then sign back in with the new password.

Thank you, but this isn't correct. My Apple ID is a different email from my me.com email. Appleid only allows me to change the apple ID password, not my me.com password. When I enter my me.com address, the email that is generated invites me to change the Apple ID password instead. And this password does not work with my me.com email.

Your @me.com address is an Apple ID, it's just a different one from the one you are using for iTunes etc. When you go to http://appleid.apple.com you will probably be presented with a default login to the iTunes ID; you should be able to delete that and enter the @me.com address and sign in with the password for that rather than the iTunes ID. If might be worth clearing your browser's cache before trying again.

That is fine if you are using the .me.com as an Apple ID, myself I am using my gmail account as an Apple ID. The .me has a different password. How do I change the .me password?

that link goes no where

And this is the right place where you can change it 😉:

https://appleid.apple.com/

Yes, because your me.com email-address is also an Apple ID. Just try to sign in with your me.com address and then choose the option to change your password. It is the only way to do it.

Did you migrate your account to iCloud, because you are talking about options like famaly pack accounts which exists only under MobileMe.

I can only speak for the more than 6 accounts in my family and my friends accounts. They all have me.com email addresses which some of them are also using as a Apple ID for iTunes. If I or someone else wants to change the password, then he has to go to https://appleid.apple.com/ to sign in and change the password and it will automatically be changed for all iTunes and iCloud. If you go to www.icloud.com (on your Mac/PC via Safari), sign in and click on your name then you will see your Apple ID which is connected to your me.com address. If you click on it you will be directed to https://appleid.apple.com where you can change the password etc. Trust me, it is the only way.
