If you know the ID and password signed into the phone, you should be able to sign out even if you can't access the email address. Is there a problem trying to do that?


Did you forget the email address of the Apple ID? See if you can recover the ID/password. Use every email address you can think of.

If you forgot the Apple ID (iCloud) password, enter the Apple (iCloud) ID, and click Forgot Password. See if you can get a Rescue or Notification email option if necessary. Link to contact Apple Support at the end of the 2nd article.
