Logging out of apple ID

I currently have my brothers Apple ID logged into my iPad and I wanted to log out in order to log in with my own. We both do not remember the password to his Apple ID (it was used by the family) and I tried to reset my iPad and it’s still logged in. Any way I can log out of it without remembering the password?

iPad mini, iOS 12

No, there is no way you can do anything with the iPad without the password except put it into activation lock.


But, see If you forgot your Apple ID password https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201487

 

You also can use Having trouble signing in/iForgot https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid 

 

And you almost certainly will need to see If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201485

 

Before trying to answer your security questions is very important that you think about your questions and their answers carefully and try to recall all details you can. If you don't answer them correctly enough, then you easily can lose control of your account.

Enter the Apple (iCloud) ID and click Forgot Password.


Apple ID - Manage            


Apple ID – Forgot Password            


If necessary, if you are the original owner, contact Apple. Apple can remove the Activation Lock if provided the required paperwork. Either take the device, the original purchase receipt with the serial number, and a photo ID to the nearest Apple Store (if it has reopened)
