Apple ID Password Reset Tangle
Hello,
I noticed something interesting while resting my Apple ID. I had to reset it several times due to what I think are Apple ID issues on iOS 9 beta. Anyways for the longest everytime I reset my password for Account A, Account B account password no longer works. And for the longest time I was baffled by this phenomenon. Until one day a light bulb went on.
It turns out:
- Account A's alternative email is Account B
- Resetting Account A's password, RESET ALSO Account B password
- Resetting Account B's password through email verification takes you to Account A's password reset page.
- Account C is not affected by this Hack because it has no alternative email
Note: The issue mentioned here IS NOT due to iOS 9 or any beta software. The prompts for password and password not being recognized might be an iOS 9 beta issue but the above mentioned tangle IS NOT dependent on it as I did my resets on my Laptop.
Anyone else notice this?
Cheers
