How can I change my Apple ID on an iPad to match the one on my iPhone?

It was my husband‘s iPad and I do not have his password for his Apple ID. He passed away.

I am very sorry for your loss.


As standard practice for privacy and security reasons, Apple does not make it easy to access or remove the Apple ID of anyone. But it can be done.


In your case, with some information from your husband's estate, you can request assistance directly.
