My ipad mini is not being recognized by itunes

Hi ronaldfromdelmar,

Welcome to the Apple Community.

Wondering which password you have forgotten .... iTunes, or ..... iPad mini,

and whether it is iPad mini that is disabled, or access to iTunes that is disabled.

Your Apple ID is the account that you use to access all Apple services and make all of your devices work together seamlessly. After you log in, you can use the App Store, iCloud, iMessage, Apple Music, Apple TV+ and more.

Your Apple ID is often an email address.

if you have forgotten the appleID itself :

If your Apple ID is locked or disabled:

(eg … after entering too many wrong log-in attempts)
