Tell him to check his web browser autofill entries, the Keychain, and other records, or use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or the unit's original owner to click here and submit an unlock request.

Your friend's Apple ID.....(same as iCloud ID)......is his/her email address. Chances are, he/she can recover their email address from the email provider......or he/she could use the Apple Support document to recover the password.


If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support


Now, if someone else set up the phone originally, then you will need that person's Apple ID and Password to release the lock on the phone. The phone will be useless until this occurs.
