How to Find Old Apple Id and Password

How do I find old forgotten apple id's

Here's a question and a story......Once upon a time in a land far far away......okay it's not really a fairy tale so seriously ....I have had my iPod Classic for ever and a day, love it, it goes with me every where BUT it is registered to an old Apple ID or at least the apple web site tells me it is.
Now, and here comes the story, once upon a time I owned a steam driven clunky old computer which I had spent many hours downloading my cd collection on to, I went away for a few days and on my return my clunky old computer was nowhere to be found neither was my VHS video (told you it was some time ago). My flat screen tv and various other electrical goods (including an electric toothbrush urgh!!) had also all mysteriously vanished. There was however a gaping hole where a window should have been!  It would appear I had been burglarised. Little did they know how slow that computer really was! Still there was 30 gigabytes of music on it. Fortunately the CDs were in the garage as I couldn't think where else to put them after I had uploaded them all so they didn't get nicked.
As a side note they never did catch the delightful young men who were so thoughtful in making me upgrade my electronics (expletive deleted)!
Anyway ............ I had to replace everything and while I was at it I changed internet supplier and therefore my e-mail (in the days before Hotmail g-mail and the like was so popular). As I had a company laptop by then and because I never got round to reloading my CDs on to any other PC and I was happy with the iPod as it was I never bothered to set up a new iTunes account until I got my IPhone. I now have an active Account with Apple TV, iPad and iPhone all registered to it. (I even got round to uploading all the Cd's again to the cloud). However in a moment of clarity and possible insanity I realised that although the new iTunes works with the iPod it is not registered to the new Apple ID.
So to cut a long story short....too late I hear you cry....I, for love nor money, can remember my old e mail, old security questions and therefore my old Apple ID, so I cannot deregister and re register my iPod.
Does anyone out there have any ideas as to how I go about asking Apple in a nice way to supply my old ID?
Any ideas? Please? Anyone?

Hello there, Confused Apples.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some step-by-step instruction for changing the email for your Apple ID:
Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
Sign out of iCloud, the iTunes Store, App Store, FaceTime, Find My Friends, Find My iPhone, and iMessage on each device that uses your current Apple ID for these services.
Go to My Apple ID.
Select Manage your Apple ID and sign in. Forgot your password?
Select Edit next to Apple ID and Primary Email Address.
Enter the email address that you want to use as your Apple ID, then select Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now. Didn't receive the email?
When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your new Apple ID email address and password. When you see a message that verification is complete, you can start using your updated Apple ID.
Remember to update the features and services that you use with Apple ID.
Learn how to use and manage your Apple ID.
Additionally, this article is helpful with what to do, after you've changed your Apple ID:

  Welcome to the Apple community.
  Which password is it that you are looking for. If it is your airplay password, simply turn the password off in the airplay settings on the Apple TV and then turn it back on again and enter a new password.

• How can I find out what apple IDs are tied to an email address

  We are trying to set up FaceTime and got the verification error on the email address.  We went in to the Apple ID account and when we verify the email address, it tells us that it's tied to another AppleID.  My daughter has 3 other AppleIDs and we've checked each one of them and the email address is not tied to any of them.
  How can we find out what apple ID is tied to this email address?
  We have used the "Forgot my Apple ID" function and used all 3 of the different email addresses she's used on the accounts and when we access the one that says there's a duplicate, it takes us to the account and it's the one with the email address that I noted above.
  Any thougts or help?
  Thanks!

  Pictures from where? Did you shoot the pictures with the iPad which would have them saved them to the Camera Roll? If so, you can restore from a backup if you have a backup with the photos in them.
  Do you ever backup your iPad? If not, there is no way to recover them.

• How can I find out which Apple ID's I've used in the past?

  I'm trying to update the software on my iPad Air and my ID has been rejected 8 times. This ID works on the App Store, iTunes, iCloud, and any other place it's needed. When I bought this unit in January I was using a different ID as was the case when I last updated the software. I have no record of previous ID's I've used. Any ideas how I can find out? Apple obviously has the info!

  Report your stolen computer to local law enforcement. You will need the serial number to make a complete report. Contact your insurance to see if they will pay a claim based on the theft. Also if it was purchased with a credit card, contact them and see if they will cover replacement - some cards do within a certain period.
  Best of luck.
