How can I reset my iPad 4 mini

My daughter has forgotten her Apple ID password, we’ve tried to recover it, but her trusted number phone got lost. How can I reset it so I can use the iPad?? Tia

If the AppleID or associated password have been forgotten, they can be recovered here:

https://iforgot.apple.com


To recover your credentials, you’ll need access to any one of the following:

  • Your primary email address mailbox that corresponds with your AppleID
  • Any of the secondary/recovery email addresses that should be configured for your AppleID account
  • Any of the trusted telephone numbers (fixed line or Cellular/Mobile) that are associated with your AppleID


Unless you AppleID account has not been fully/correctly configured, or has been seriously neglected, recovery of the AppleID and password should not be difficult.


More information about recovery of your AppleID:

When you recover access to your credentials, you would be well advised to log-in to your AppleID account from a web browser - and verify/update any email addresses and trusted telephone numbers:

If you are unable to self-recover the credentials, you might seek assistance from the Apple Account Security team:
