When using Apple devices or services, an "Apple ID" is required for everything to work smoothly. That is why it will be useful to understand how to find out your Apple ID. If you have access to a phone number, getting an ID will be quite easy. However, if you cannot access your phone, you will have to look for ways to unlock your Apple ID without it. Fortunately, there are solutions that allow you to restore access in different ways.
How to find out the computer ID?
Viewing the ID of a PC or laptop under Windows is as simple as connecting a microphone to the computer; this can be done using standard OS tools, as well as using one of the most famous third-party programs; The three simplest methods will be discussed below.
Command line
A user who already has an idea of how to find out what operating system is on a computer will probably be able to use the command line functionality without much difficulty - fortunately, he will only need to enter one command. To view the computer ID, you need to do the following:
- Open the command line by typing the appropriate phrase in Windows Search.
- Enter the command ipconfig /all without extra spaces and quotes in the window that opens and press the Enter key.
- Find the “Physical Address” section in the list displayed - this will be the ID or identification number you are looking for.
Important: if hardware virtualization elements or a high-quality VPN client are installed on the computer, the user will see several “Ethernet Adapter” sections containing relevant information. You need to choose a real one, guided either by the name of your provider, or by the absence of “extra” inscriptions in the title.
device Manager
You can find out the computer ID using the “Device Manager” system utility as follows:
- Call up the “Control Panel” menu using “Search”.
- Go to the "System and Security" section.
- Next, go to the “System” subsection.
- In the new window, use the “Device Manager” link located to the right of the main field.
- Find and expand the Network Adapters section.
- Find your real network adapter.
- Right-click on the title and select “Properties” from the menu that opens.
- Go to the “Network Address” section and view or copy the ID in the text field.
Tip: if this field is left empty or under it, in order to find out the ID of your computer or laptop, the user will have to use the first or third of the described methods.
AIDA64
The most convenient application for PCs and smartphones, with which you can view the characteristics of your computer without any additional manipulations. All the user needs is:
- Launch the program and go to the “Network” section.
- Next, go to the “Windows Network” subsection.
- Select your physical (real) network adapter from the list that opens.
- And look at the ID of your computer or laptop in the lower field.
Important: the user can copy data directly in the application by right-clicking on the number and selecting the desired item in the context menu.
What is a VKontakte ID?
As mentioned above, this is a unique numeric identifier that is assigned to a user page, group, event or multimedia content. This identification system helps to correctly store information in the social network database. And it is used for the correct operation of many functions.
Initially, id is a set of numbers. But you can change it by adding Latin letters. This process will be discussed below. In the meantime, look at an example of identifiers for different types of data.
- https://vk.com/id2615342 is an example of a user page ID.
- https://vk.com/club151163141 - group identifier.
- https://vk.com/photo-151163141_456239018 - photo id.
- https://vk.com/event5481248 - meeting ID.
As you can see, the required data is indicated after the social network address and the slash “/” character. Next, the type of information is indicated, and then a numeric identifier.

The story of Daria - the first client of ID-code
I met Dasha as part of a personal consultation with Tatyana Vetrova at the “My Personal Brand Concept” master group. Daria said that she was interested in different things - she painted, created mosaics, sculpted, and tried a lot of things, but had not yet found herself professionally. During the conversation, it turned out that Daria is most fascinated and inspired by doll miniatures, which combine all the accumulated experience and previously mastered technologies. The story of our heroine captivated us, and we decided to work on a new technique using Daria’s case. In this “working” video, Dasha shares how the work went, how ideas were born and what was the most difficult.
(if the video does not open, watch the link on YouTube)
Dasha's imagery began with the stylistic history of the Middle Ages - “Joan of Arc”. There is asceticism and severity in this story, but at the same time there is something very bright and spiritually sublime. In the archetypal family, the archetype of the innocent became the “elder brother” - the communicator, and the “hero” became the point of growth. Through the analysis of verbal language, we saw a lot related to the topic of “time”. And therefore, in the visualization of the project, we decided to use the theme of a medieval tower clock as a symbol of time. And give the story itself a “fantasy” flavor, which perfectly combines children’s fairy tales and gives room for the inner hero.
This is what Dasha’s brand board looks like from designer Lina Gorobchenko
For Dasha, the following were also worked out: mission, market niche, target customer groups, main products and services of her project, channels for attracting customers. The final emphasis of the project packaging was the writing of a brand-story - this is a sincere, inspiring story, an appeal to clients on Daria’s website and other resources.
Brand-story Daria Hello! My name is Daria, I am a time traveler.
I remember how I assembled my first moving device. A box full of colored cardboard and scissors, brushes, paints and clay. All that was left was to fill the device with a bit of imagination, and a miniature universe was built under your fingers, grain by grain. This simple method does not create temporary paradoxes, but opens the door to a world full of secrets and magic for the observer.
I remember when it was time to grow up. I honestly tried: I followed the dress code and went to a serious job. I tried on limitless opportunities for career growth, only the days disappeared without a trace and my heart stopped.
It’s funny to think how many years it took to understand that life’s work is what you do best and what seems like nonsense. Not a struggle, but an endless stream of inspiration. A miniature for me is an ode to the inner child and the answer to how to cover a vast field of interests. A recipe for manifesting dreams and preserving memories. A road without beginning or end. Do you want to learn how to travel like this, or maybe you are looking for an interesting artifact as a gift, the doors of my workshop are always open for you!

Daria's review:
“I came to Idea-class with a collection of unflattering labels (I’ve collected all my life), confused, completely not understanding who I am. I considered well-chosen styles and colors to be a style, and a personal brand to be the image of a successful person, namely a picture. And from the very first day we met, the world turned upside down, the process of developing taste began, I realized how many options of beauty there are in the world, and how unique each of us is.
I was amazed at how delicately, subtly and accurately the masters in Idea-class create. Now, after a while, participation in ID-code seems like a logical continuation. I wanted to find more missing pieces of the mosaic, and I got a whole bunch of them.
From the very first meeting with Tatyana Bondarenko and Tatyana Vetrova, meeting the family of archetypes, it was as if I was rescued from under heavy stones. A whole range of qualities opened up to my gaze, my own motives became clear, and a huge part of myself was accepted. In the general discussion with the masters, many ideas and insights were born.
The magnificent designer Lina, from the first time, designed the images floating in the air into corporate symbols. So accurate that upon opening the presentation, the brand story seemed to write itself.
On a powerful wave of inspiration, different directions of activity were invented. At first, this avalanche of ideas frightened me, but the open archetypes gave me a hint where to focus, what would be easiest and most sincere.
An hour of communication with Elena Trukhina freed me from many years of complexes. Elena showed me a different angle on the part that I was most ashamed of in myself, and the flaw suddenly became a helper!
Olga Menshikova created an imaginative solution that made my heart sing! With humor and secrets, transporting you to an ideal world. It's amazing how everything can change in one moment. For years, I thought there was nothing more tedious than shopping for clothes. Now that this is a treasure hunt, searching for nuggets in the river sand.
My story was lucky enough to be the “first swallow,” as the masters called it. See live performances, hear many warm responses from those present. Realize in real time how magical and correct everything that is happening is.
And you know what's funny? All my life I wanted to be the one I was embarrassed about. Idea-class arranged a sincere meeting with this hidden part. They gave harmony, integrity, volume. Style, personal brand is about loving your true self. Thank you, you are forever in my heart." Daria
Feedback from Maryana Ershova (Ekaterinburg) after the introductory session with coach from the ID-code team Elena Trukhina:
“First of all, I put participation in the ID-code project on the “wait list” of the necessary financial costs. It was my communication with Natalya Vaganova that confirmed my desire to take part in it. During the 30-40 minutes that we talked, she managed to cancel a couple of “phobias” that had been quite confusing to me lately. I also received a couple of tips from her: how not to waste energy in vain and where I personally should get it. So I thought, if half an hour gave such a result, then what will it be like after long work with the whole team? Of course - colossal! I would especially like to note that Natalya managed to combine a relaxed dialogue with an unobtrusive posing of important questions. Communication was very natural and effective.”
How to find out the device ID code.
(3 votes, average: 5.00 out of 5)
You have decided to reinstall Windows, or have installed additional hardware, but the system cannot find a driver for this device, do not worry.
STEP 1. You need to determine which device the drivers are not installed on. For convenience, there is a classification system for equipment and looks like this:
PCI/VEN_****&DEV_****&SUBSYS_******
HDAUDIO/FUNC_**&VEN_****&DEV_****&SUBSYS_******
USB/VID_****&PID_****
ACPI/ATK****
VEN_**** , VID_*** — speaks about the code of the equipment manufacturer (VENdor, Vendor Id) DEV_**** , PID_*** — speaks about the device that is installed (DEVice, Product Id)
STEP 2. In order to find out the hardware code you need to go to the “Device Manager”.
Option 1: Start - Control Panel - Device Manager
Option 2: On the “My Computer” icon, right-click on the “Device Manager” menu. If this menu item is missing, then click on “Management”
In the menu that opens, select “Device Manager”
If you see a sign, then this equipment requires driver installation. When you right-click on this device, select the “Properties” menu item
A window with a hardware property will open, in my case “Android Phone Properties”.
Go to the “Details” tab
Where do you select the menu item “equipment codes (ID)”
A window will open:
STEP 3. All that remains is to copy the hardware code using the keyboard shortcut “CTR+C” and paste it into the search engine search form, or copy it to the driver search forum.
We restore it on the site
If you do not have access to a trusted Apple device and its recovery key, you will not be able to reset the password. A "trusted device" includes an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch running iOS 9 or later, and a Mac running OS X El Capitan or later that the user is already signed in to using two-factor authentication.
- You will need to follow the link: appleid.apple.com
- Select "I forgot my Apple ID or password."
- Fill in your Apple ID.
- Fill in the information to enable two-factor authentication.
- Decide on a trusted device to receive a verification code.
- Enter the verification code.
- Create a new password, then select Reset Password.
If a user doesn't know their recovery key and has forgotten their Apple ID password, they should generate a new recovery key and save it in a safe place, such as a password manager. To generate a new recovery key, simply go to appleid.apple.com, sign in with your Apple ID and password, scroll down to the Security section, click Change and Replace Lost Password.
How to find out the “hardware ID” of a Wi-Fi adapter, determine the manufacturer, model and find the driver?
It's no secret that most problems related to Wi-Fi in Windows arise from drivers. Either the Wi-Fi driver is not installed at all, or the driver is somehow “crooked” and nothing works. Finding the right driver is not an easy task. Especially for users who have never encountered this. I have already written a lot of instructions on this topic, links to which will be left in the process of writing this article.
In the case of laptops, the best solution is to download a driver from the manufacturer’s website specifically for your model and installed operating system. I already talked about this in the article which driver is needed for Wi-Fi to work on a laptop. But it’s not always possible to download the required driver from the manufacturer’s website. Mainly for two reasons:
- There are several drivers for Wi-Fi (Wireless LAN) on the site and it is not clear which one to download and install. This is because manufacturers can install different Wi-Fi modules in the same laptop. Various manufacturers. Therefore, there are several drivers on the site. If you look carefully, under each one it will be written for which manufacturer it is intended (Intel, Atheros, Ralink, Broadcom). To determine the manufacturer, you can use the HWVendorDetection program, which I talked about in the article on how to install drivers for a Wi-Fi adapter in Windows 7. But the problem is that this program very often simply does not show the manufacturer of the Wireless LAN.
- And the second reason is the lack of a driver for the version of Windows that is installed on our laptop.
In separate articles, I showed how to find and install the wireless adapter driver specifically on ASUS, Acer and Lenovo laptops.
If we have a desktop computer, then the situation there is approximately the same. A PC most often has either a PCI (inside the system unit) or a USB (like a flash drive) Wi-Fi receiver installed. This adapter has a model, and there is a manufacturer’s website where we can download the required driver. Unless, of course, it is some Chinese, nameless Wi-Fi adapter. In this case, this article will be useful to you.
But there is a universal solution with which you can find out the manufacturer, model and find a driver for any device. Including for Wi-Fi adapter. The bottom line is that if the device is physically connected to your laptop or PC, then it should appear in the device manager. If we are talking about a wireless network adapter, then it can be displayed on the “Network Adapters” tab (when the driver is installed and it is working). Or, for example, the 802.11n USB Wireless LAN Card device is displayed, and we need to find out what chipset this adapter is built on (find out the manufacturer). Since Windows (especially Windows 10) very often automatically installs the standard, old driver. At a time when the manufacturer had already released a new driver.
Or it will be displayed as an unknown device (with a yellow exclamation mark), or “Network controller”, “USB2.0 WLAN”. Typically, unknown devices are collected under the Other Devices tab. For example:
Solution: look at the special code “Hardware ID” in the properties of this adapter (known or unknown) and using this code, through a search, or on a special website (more on this later in the article) find out the manufacturer, model, or immediately find the required driver .
