I bought my very first Apple Watch and I’m trying to pair it with my phone. I get to the part where it asks for the password to an email account I haven’t used in years and I do not know the password and no longer have the phone number associated to recover the password. The pairing will not let me skip this part. What can I do to finish pairing my watch
OK...I'm not sure why it's asking for any email address, to be honest. This is why I asked if the watch is brand new and never been set up previously. It should be set up to the same Apple ID you are running on your iPhone currently.
See the directions in this link on setting a new Apple Watch --> Set up and pair your Apple Watch with iPhone - Apple Support
Is this a brand new, never been used Apple Watch?
