Typically an Apple ID is an email address you have used.

or go directly to this link --> https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid#


If you still need help:

Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security "This article provides country-specific Apple Support contact information for customers seeking help with their Apple ID password or other security-related issues."

Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security - Apple Support


Also look in Keychain, and in a browser's security settings if you use it to automatically sign into Apple when using a browser.


Once you can log into your acount, make sure iCloud settings is activated for photos. The photos should appear on your new device unless you were not using iCloud to store photos previously.
