forgot my apple tv passwprd
how do I retrieve my apple tv password
You can't. You'll have to restore it. Passwords are made to protect the device, so if you don't have it, you'll have to restore it to factory settings, and then re-add passwords to everything you use on it. Sorry. Don't lose your password is my recommendation.
