[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1648674, member: 307555"] Interesting. I looked at my id and I don't see my birthday in any of the info but it may have been asked. He might not have set up any security questions. I believe that was an extra step that I had to set up online. Anyway, with all you have said looks like the only course is to set up a new id. The odds of someone getting his old email and then figuring out his password - which both of you have forgotten - are very very very small. Think about it - his name and address are already public knowledge, he used an incorrect birthday anyway, a phone number is public too. I wouldn't be too worried. Make sure to sign out of iCloud, the iTunes Store, App Store, FaceTime, Find My Friends, Find My iPhone, and iMessage on each device that might still be using the old Apple ID if he has any of these. Then create a new Apple id. Lisa [/QUOTE]
