    I am amazed by the number of people who claim that they've forgotten their Apple ID, password, security questions, and rescue email address.  I'm wondering what percentage of these people have stolen property.  Regardless, you can get your Apple ID here: Settings>Store>tap on your AppleID.

     

    FYI: you posted in the wrong forum.

    You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

    Most of them.  Apple's lockout so far is amazingly effective.

    My Iphone 4s was connected to my computer and it did an update to the newest iOS to fix the bugs.  The wi fi was not working, anyway somehow it reset to factory default and I've lost the very FIRST username and password from when I got the phone! I have reset the password but the I.D. is not recognized.  Sprint couldn't help me, now I have to go to Apple or find out here how to get back into my phone.  Any help there? I'm not a ditz, the phone was in for repair last week because the wi fi wouldn't turn on, when I connected it to the computer it updated and then reset itself!  "Grandma" knows what she's doing! The Apple 4s doesn't!
