If the mail address that is example1@icloud.com is always an Apple ID yet not signed in Mac system preferences ( in fact you had a different Apple ID right now signed in say example2@gmail.com its password can be found if you have set up iCloud Keychain https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204085

from the keychain access of Mac https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/keychain-access/kyca1085/mac
Open keychain access in the section iCloud use its spotlight search and type the mail address in it , you as an administrator can only find it ( it will prompt to enter admin password ) to find the password for mail address .
About switching address there are two ways change from appleid.apple.com see the article https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202667
If iPad is also synced with Mac then you have to follow https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204071
The second way is sign out existing Apple ID address from Mac system preferences and sign in with desired mail address .

The mail address could be created with some mail services like gmail , yahoo ....etc that is not signed as Apple ID , you can change the password on web server .
For gmail accounts see the article https://support.google.com/mail/answer/41078?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en
Totally not helpful but apparently I can't select NO as an answer. Failed again, Apple!
It is a @icloud.com address. My actual Apple ID is NOT @icloud.com. But the password is only "saved" with Apple and on the computer I created it on and is no where to be found so I cannot add the account to my other devices. It won't add it automatically and I'm trying to switch over to the iCloud address but I can't just delete a 30 year old Apple ID and start over.
