You cannot recover a password, only reset it.


On a computer with the Passwords application, you can see your current Apple Account password ( How to find my current Apple ID password? - Apple Community ).


If you are signed into this forum using the same Apple Account then your browser may be configured to automatically enter your password. You should be able to view stored passwords in your browser's preferences/settings.


This Apple article has instructions for what to do if you have forgotten your Apple account password, or the system does not recognize the one you remember —> If you forgot your password and can’t sign in to your Apple Account - Apple Support or go directly to this web reset link —> https://iforgot.apple.com/ (“The reset process on the web might take a little longer. If you’ll have access to one of your trusted devices soon, it might be faster and easier to reset your password at that time.”)


If you don't receive your verification or reset email, read this Apple Support article: If you didn’t receive your Apple Account verification or password reset email - Apple Support

"When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account." Also check your junk mail.


If you find you can’t sign in, reset your password, or receive verification codes, you can request account recovery (read this support article: If you forgot your password and can’t sign in to your Apple Account - Apple Support ) to regain access to your account. Account recovery might take a few days or longer, depending on the specific account information you can provide to verify your identity. This is a multi-step process.

This page has telephone numbers for contacting Apple for support and service ➞ Contact Apple Support - Apple Support



Check your web browser autofill entries, the Keychain or Passwords application, and other records, or use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team.


The people on these boards are mostly other customers, not Apple Support. Recovering the original password from their servers isn't possible; it's been run through a one-way encryption algorithm.
