Why are you having trouble accessing your iCloud account? If you forgot your password, see if you can get an email option. If it isn't a password problem, do you need a verification code?


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

See if anything here helps.  If necessary, you can use account recovery as explained in the link at bottom of the article.
