While there is a process and details to attend, basics start with legal access to the user's account.

As stated in earlier reply: "..basics start with legal access to the user's account.."


For anything involving the deceased properties, intellectual, creations, etc. IF

those are within an archive or otherwise physically still in existence; the only

recourse open to anyone, is probably a Legal one. An Apple ID can be a Key.


A duckduckgo.com search is a general framework; parameters can be regional.

(I'm a bit distant, in south central AK. And like most who reply here: a Volunteer.)
