Hello redge83,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.


We understand that you have forgotten the password and email address for your current Apple ID and you want to create a new Apple ID. We would encourage trying to regain access to your current Apple ID because that has access to all of your current email account info, this is the ID you have downloaded content through, data that you may have saved, synced or stored. So, it is always better to retain access to the current Apple ID if at all possible. To that end, here are some articles to help if you forgot the email address and password for your Apple ID and if necessary to use account recovery to reset your Apple ID password.
