im trying to reset my apple id password but it keeps saying session timed out

Reset your browser CACHE.

Somehow the web site that resets the password is using an expired session from previous attempts LOL

This was driving me crazy until I cleared the %!@# cache.

Absolutely spot on answer reset website data password reset immediately

And in case you need to know what the "time-out" error means, it means that either (1) your internet connection is not strong enough to allow your computer to load the page within the browser's time-out time-limit or (2) the server on which the website is located is too bogged down to send the necessary info to your computer within the browser's set time-out time-limit.

I just thought I would share in case the context helps solve the same problem in other scenarios.

Best!

I hit the back button from the session timeout page to go back to the reset password form. It worked then. Maybe just a fluke but worth a try.

How does one "clear a cache"?
