If you are locked out of your Apple ID account you can go to https://iforgot.apple.com

This will provide you with the recovery steps you put in place for this situation.


Here are some support articles that should help:

If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions - Apple Support

If your Apple ID has been locked or disabled – Apple Support

It you keep trying and fail to answer them satisfactorily, you eventually will have to opt for account recovery. Account recovery can take pretty long. See Recover your Apple ID when you can’t reset your password  https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204921.


You might be able to avoid account recover. Apple support might be able to help you before you enter recovery if you have your receipt for the purchase of a pertinent device from an authorized Apple seller with its serial number on it. You will need a photo ID alsoSee the support options below to reach Apple Support for help. Alternatively, if an Apple Store is open in your area, then you can go there to deal with your problem. In this case, you can make a genius-bar appointment (https://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/) if you want.
