Forgot Myspace Password

Category: Myspace , Social Networking

"Help, I forgot the password for my Myspace account! Now I can't login and people think I'm dissing them because I can't reply to their comments. How do I get the password, or have it reset so I can login?"

** NEWS FLASH! ** I do not have your password... I cannot get your password... But if you lost your Myspace password, you can get it back if you read and follow the instructions in the article below...

Lost Your Myspace Password?

If you have lost or forgotten the password to your Myspace account, you can send a password retrieval request to Myspace. Just enter the email address associated with the account, and Myspace will send your password to that address.

"Thank you so much. I didn't have my password for the longest time, I did this and it worked! I couldn't believe it. Thanks again." -- Evan

But what if you forgot the email address too?

Salute This!

If you don't have the account password or access to the email address associated with the account, there IS another way to prove that you are the rightful owner of the account. A salute is a photo of yourself holding a handwritten sign with the word "MySpace.com" and your FriendID on it. You can find your Friend ID number after "friendID=" in the web address when viewing your profile.

After taking the salute photo, you will need to upload that photo to the Web. You cannot post your salute in a public place, so if you don't have your own website, I recommend that you open a free account at Geocities and upload it there.

Next, contact Myspace via this form, provide the web address (URL) of the Salute photo, and the web address of the Myspace profile you cannot access. Explain the situation, cross your fingers and howl at the full moon. With a bit of luck your Myspace password will be sent to your email inbox.

If you read the comments below, you'll see that this process DOES WORK for some people. If you don't get a reply after several days, send your salute again... and keep trying!

Hey can you plz help me make up a new my space password

EDITOR'S NOTE: I recommend the Chinese Menu Method. Pick something fluffy (kitty|puppy|bunny). Pick a 3-digit number (147|318|582). Then pick a silly word (snarch|blotz|kuku). Smash them all together, and... Done!

I created a Myspace account about 2 yrs ago at the time I was using another username. I had to change my screen name for aol. For some reason I had to change my password to Myspace and forget my password, is there any way I could retrieve my password from Myspace so I wouldn't have to creat another account?

EDITOR'S NOTE: It sounds like you never changed your Myspace profile to reflect the new AOL email address. Unless you can reclaim the old AOL screen name, you'll have to use the Salute process.
