Forgot iCloud Password Assuming you can't think long until you remember what the password is, the best thing to do is reset it. Here's how to do it. Go to appleid.apple.com and click on 'Forgot iCloud password?' Enter the email address you use with your Apple ID and click continue (if you can't remember which email address you use, we cover it here). You will also need to enter text to prove that you are not a robot. (Tip: If you can't read the text, keep clicking until you can.) The next step will depend on the type of security you set up for your Apple account. With twostep verification or two-factor authentication, this will involve receiving details through another device. (We explain the differences between those here.) If you have not configured any of these additional levels of security, you will need to receive an email or answer some security questions.
