Hi Newwatch1969,

Welcome to the Apple Community, where some of us do our best to help each other troubleshoot :)


Your Apple ID is the one account you use to access all Apple services,

such as the App Store, Apple Music, iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime and more.


Your Apple ID is often an e-mail address, (in some countries it may be a phone number).

Your Apple ID password is normally used for everything Apple.


Apple support have an article online to help you.

If you can't connect or sign in to iCloud

Hope this helps you regain access to iCloud :)
