RECOVER not RESET apple password

I

iMore Question

As long as I fulfill requirements, why cant I decide my password? I dont rememberr it because Im always having to changeit It usually says its weak or used before. SO WHAT!!! Its MY password. Im not worried about any security breach as I dont have anything on here Im worried about, but even if I did- thats my risk to take. Whats the big deal? The most someone coukd do is steal my credit card info right? That account is closed. I understand & appreciate the warning but this is rediculous.

Welcome to iMore! Do you have a question we can answer? I think resetting forgotten passwords--rather than recovering them--is pretty much the standard around the internet for obvious security reasons. Perhaps you should reset your password and not forget it this time.
