After a lot of waiting apple finally allowed me to reset the apple password I supposedly forgot, anyway that was yesterday evening, got an email advising "has been successfully reset",
went to login today and apple says either your username or password is incorrect, kinda hard to believe after taking about 2 weeks to reset it

Original Title: Password change not effective
iPhone 5s, iOS 12
Fair enough, it appears user error, fat fingers when entering a password. One digit incorrect and a deal of frustration with the previous Apple process wondering what was going on. Luckily when I set the password I cut and pasted it to a separate document and was able to eventually find my error.
log in to apple id using the username and password that was confirmed successful yesterday
Full story, I have an old ipad that was setup using my Dads apple ID, I have access to all his tech stuff anyway/passwords etc as I have set them up for him. Dad doesnt use the ipad anymore as I got him a newer iphone so I was going to use it. Copied all his photos etc to backup, then thought ill just reset the ipad and set it up under my apple id. Well then it wanted his username and password to unlock, easy I thought, but then consistently told me I had the wrong password or username, I couldnt remeber changing it and he certainly didnt. Went to reset his password, even on his own iphone wouldnt let me and took several weeks. yesterday it let me reset his password, today its telling me again the username or password is wrong

Including how it was solved would be a good way to end the conversation. There is no other way to end it except after a while the entire thing will be locked, though still findable by others searching for help with a similar issue.
Log into what?
