Thanks for reaching out michael.wilhelm,


It sounds like you saw a popup request on your device about a password reset. We can help.


It isn't exactly clear what you need help with, but if you didn't request a password reset you should not respond to the request, and do not provide any codes to anyone. Doing so will give control of your account to a third-party and put your devices and personal information at risk, and could also lock you out of the account.


If you have already shared any information with a third-party, you should take these steps immediately If you think your Apple ID has been compromised.


If you need further help, yyou can connect with Apple directly using either http://getsupport.apple.com or if you're in a region without direct support options, you can also Contact Apple for support and service.


Hope that helps.


Take care.
