[Hidden-tech] Finding password to Apple ID

[Rich Eichacker]

Alan,

Go to Settings, click on your account name at the top, click on Media &
Purchases, click on Password Settings.  There you'll be able to change the
setting related to Free apps and entering your password.   After turning
that setting ON, you can download another free app and it should prompt you
for your password.

Best,
Rich

Subject: [Hidden-tech] Finding password to Apple ID

For ridiculous and obscure reasons,* I need to confirm the password that
goes with my Apple ID.  I know the ID and am pretty sure the password is one
of a few possibilities, but need to determine which one by entering it when
prompted.  I have an iPhone 7.  I was told that if I try to get an app from
the App Store, I would be prompted for my password, but this did not happen
when I tried a couple of random apps.  Maybe because they were free?  I
don't see prices on anything.  I'm fine about spending a token amount, if
necessary, but hopefully there is a more straightforward solution.

Thanks,

Alan

* My wife needs to get her iPhone wiped before transferring it.  The 
tech went to do this and was, surprisingly, prompted to enter the 
password for my Apple ID.  We were expecting that it would prompt for 
hers.  So I need to figure it out so she can provide it to the tech.
