My Apple mail was exploited by someone in French so I do not know French ! How can I fix this ? Please and thank you ?!

My Apple mail was hacked and it’s now in French ! Tried everything to fix it but at 64 I’m not able to ! Any help very much appreciate! I do know my way around a iPhone and laptop! I’ve removed several viruses on laptops but this one in my Apple email just has me stumped. Please help ?

Hi aewwaggle,



Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. We understand that your iCloud email is now in French and we'd like to assist.


First, make sure that your language preferences are set to English: Change the language, time zone, or regional formats used on iCloud.com - Apple Support


If so, the steps here may help if your Apple ID has been compromised: If you think your Apple ID has been compromised - Apple Support




We hope this helps.


Cheers!
