2 Methods to Recover Forgotten iTunes Password

iTunes is a great piece of software for anyone that likes music. Even if you don't have an iPod, it is very useful for organizing your music library and adding to your library by buying new songs at low prices. Of course, you need to have the appropriate account for the iTunes store. If you have an Apple account that you use with iTunes, then you will have to remember your account username and password. The username should just be your email address, but the password has to be created by you.

If you forgot your iTunes password, then you will need to go through a short and fairly painless procedure to get it back. In this article we'll show you two methods to recover lost or forgotten iTunes password.

Solution 1: Online iTunes Password Reset

If you forgot your iTunes password, then don't panic. Just launch the iTunes program, click on your username in the top right corner (or the sign in tab if it doesn't remember you) and then try to sign in. There's a button to the right of the password field that is labeled "Forgot Password?". Click on this button to bring up the next screen.



This one needs you to enter the username for the related account. As I said, this should just be the relevant email address. Type it in to pull up the next screen that's specific for your account. You have two options for recovery at this stage.

Option 1: If you still have access to the email account, then you can have it just reset the password. iTunes will send a new link to your email address. If you click on the link, it will just reset your password to something new. Use this new password to log into your iTunes account and then bring up your account information again. Change the password to something that you'll remember and then call it a day.

Option 2: If you don't have access to the email or don't want to go through the email reset process, you can have it ask you your secret question. It will first ask you to confirm a piece of account information, like your birthday, and then it will give you the secret question that you used when you signed up for the iTunes account. You just have to answer it to get your account back. Hopefully you can remember you secret question. If not, then you'll need to use the iTunes.

Solution 2: Recover iTunes Password with Password Recovery Tool

Nearly most Web browsers have a pretty nifty password manager, including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera. When you log into iTune account from the iTunes Store, the Web browser offers to save your user name and password. The next time you visit that page, user name and password fields are auto completed for you. A real time-saver.

But have you ever forgotten your iTune password and need to recover the password saved in your browser? Once you have let your web browser remembers your password, it's quite easy to recover the password with Password Recovery Bundle. Let's take the example of Firefox browser.

1) Download and install Password Recovery Bundle.
2) Run Password Recovery Bundle, then click the Start Recovery button. It will bring up a drop-down menu that shows all supported password types.
3) Select the Firefox Password option.
4) The program will instantly decrypt the passwords saved in Firefox's password manager, then display the logins and passwords to all your iTune accounts.



If neither of these works, then you will have to call iTunes support to try and find a human who can help you. If you have some other account details, then they might be able to help.

Hopefully these instructions should help anyone who forgot their iTunes password get their account back in order.

How to Reset LenovoThinkPad BIOS Password

An Lenovo ThinkPad laptop can have the following passwords set:

1. Power ON Password
RT/CMOS RAM has 8 bytes reserved for the power-on password. The 8 bytes are initialized to hex 00. The microprocessor can access these bytes only during POST. After POST is completed the password bytes are locked and cant be accessed.

During installation, this password (1 to 7 characters) is stored in the security space.

The program Easy-Setup's built-in system has the function of installing the password. After the power-on password has been installed, it can be changed or removed only during POST.

2. Hard Disk Password
The hard-disk password (HDP) protects your removable hard disk drive's data from being accessed by anyone who is unauthorized.

3. Supervisor Password
The supervisor password protects the system information in Easy-Setup from being changed without permission.

Use software to Reset an IBM ThinkPad’s Power On Password
Boot the IBM ThinkPad, and KeyMaker will recover the BIOS password.

If you cannot boot the ThinkPad and only the power-on password is set, do the following:

• Power off the computer
• Remove the DIMM cover on the bottom side of the computer.

• Under the short-circuit condition, power on the computer and wait until the POST ends. After the POST ends, the password prompt does not appear. The power-on password is removed.

If both the power-on password and the supervisor password are set, do the following:

• Power on the computer by pressing and holding F1.

4 Ways on How to Hack Facebook Password

Are you curious about hacking Facebook password well then this post is just for you, most people ask me to tell us the easiest way to hack Facebook password, so here are some ways to hack Facebook password:

1. Facebook Phishing
2. Keylogging
3. Social engineering
4. Primary email address hack

Facebook Phishing:

I have taken this method first because I think this is the most popular method/way of hacking Facebook. I studied various Facebook surveys taken on web about hacking Facebook. The results of these surveys show "Phishing" as the most used method to hack facebook and to note… "Phishing is favorite method of Facebook hackers". So, friends.. beware of Facebook Phishing. Facebook staff is working hard to avoid these Facebook phishers. Phishing not only allows you to hack Facebook but also almost any email account. You have to only get the trick used to make a phisher, which I think is very easy. I learnt it without any difficulty. But, remember, this is only for educational purpose. I will not extend this topic over here.

Keylogging:

This is my second favorite, as only thing you have to do is remotely install a keylogger application (if you don't have any physical access to victim computer). Keylogging becomes more easy if you have physical access to victim computer as only thing you have to do is install a keylogger and direct it to your destination so that it will send all recorded keystrokes to pointed destination. What a keylogger does is it records the keystrokes into a log file and then you can use these logs to get required Facebook password and thus can hack facebook password.

Primary Email Address Hack:

If Facebook hacker, by some means, hacks your gmail or yahoo account which you are using as primary email address, then this Facebook hacker can easily hack your Facebook password using "Forgot password" trick. He will simply ask Facebook to send password reset email to your primary email address- which is already hacked. Thus, your Facebook account password will be reset and it will be hacked !!!

So, always remember to protect your Facebook primary email address and try to keep unknown or useless mail id as your primary email address So far, i found these Facebook hacking methods as best and working ways to hack Facebook account passwords. I never encourage hacking Facebook or any email account, I just wanna make you aware about Facebook dangers online. I will appreciate your effort if you mention any other Facebook hacking method.

Facebook Cookie Stealing:

I am updating this post with a new method which is being used to hack Facebook accounts, which I think is very effective, Facebook cookie stealing is becoming popular day by day.The cookie which Facebook uses to authenticate it's users is called "Datr", If an attacker can get hold of your authentication cookies, All he needs to do is to inject those cookies in his browser and he will gain access to your account.
