Recover iCloud password on terminal
I have a macOS 10.14.6 Mojave, I forgot my iCloud account password and I was trying recover, however apple says that I need 24h to recover my password since I do not have access to my backup email account (I know this sounds strange but the backup account is the account itself). Is it possible to recover faster based on tmp files or other method?
Thank you.
Solution 1:
Your password will be in Keychain if you have ever signed in to the web site directly.
You're looking for the one that's listed as www.icloud.com([email protected]) as a Web form password in the iCloud keychain.
None of the other items in Keychain that look like passwords are in fact "the password", they are all encrypted tokens of some sort & probably indecipherable.
