How to Find Apple ID Password [With & Without Resetting]

Wondering how to find your Apple ID password? If you’ve forgotten your password and can’t log in anymore, don’t worry; you’re not alone.

Fortunately, there are several ways Apple offers to assist you in recovering or changing your Apple ID password. You will discover instructions on finding your Apple ID password in this article, both with and without having to reset it.

1. How to find Apple ID password without resetting it?

1. 1. Ensure the password was written correctly

One of the most common reasons users end up locked out of their account is that the password was incorrectly typed during the sign-in process.

Please ensure you’re typing your password correctly, consider any case-sensitive elements, and adhere to these topics:

• Double-check the password – To be sure the characters you entered match the password, carefully review what you entered. Be mindful of capital and lowercase letters, digits, and special characters.
• Use the Show Password option – You might have the option to display the password you’ve typed on some devices or password entry forms. Activating this option allows you to check your password before submitting it to ensure accuracy.
• Check if the password works on other devices – You can try logging in with it to verify its accuracy if you’ve previously used the same Apple ID password on another device or service. This confirms that your password is correct.

1.2. Verify your browsers for saved passwords

Safari

Here’s how to check your Apple ID password on Safari:

5. Search for the Apple login info in the list, and click the entry to open it.
6. Click the password field to see the password.
7. Use it to log into your Apple account.

1.3. Check other iOS devices connected to the same Apple ID

If you’re wondering how to see your Apple ID password, try out your other devices connected to the same Apple ID. We recommend that you check them to recover the account’s password without any issues.

1.4. Try other passwords you remember

Most of us have a few passwords that we reuse with different accounts with minor changes to their structure. This is mainly done out of comfort, but the situation might be helpful if you can’t check your Apple ID password.

Try all the passwords you remember being used on the Apple ID account and other online services.

If none of the passwords you remember work, follow the next methods.

1.5. Use a third-party specialized tool

If all the methods mentioned above have failed to give results, then it would be recommended that you use specialized software like Tenorshare 4uKey.

This software allows you to remove your Apple ID from your device or devices and set up a new account. Here’s how to check your Apple ID password:

1. Download and install the app.
2. Tap the Trust this Computer option, then click the Start Remove button to initiate the process.
3. If your Find My Phone option is turned off on your device, the app will remove the ID from your phone. If you have the Find My Phone option deactivated, the app will reset all settings from the Settings app. If your Find My Phone feature is on, and you’re using a device with iOS 11.4 or above, first, ensure the Screen Lock and Two-Factor Authentication options are active.
4. Download the matching firmware suggested by the 4uKey app, and hit the Start Remove button.

1.6. Contact Apple Support

To get help with a specific product or service, go to the Apple Support website or app and make your selection.

You can start a chat with an Apple Support agent or arrange a call if you can’t solve the problem yourself.
