How do I reset my Apple Watch with the wrong iCloud ID?

Wrong email address on my iCloud account for my watch. That’s why I can’t get my watch to connect. I need to start over with a new id. I can’t get the wright code to erase it.

Regain access to the Apple ID, or provide sufficiently-convincing proof of ownership to Apple. For recovering access to your own Apple ID, if you are the holder of the Apple ID associated with the Activation Lock:

If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

If you forgot your Apple ID - Apple Support

Apple’s I Forgot Service

How to use account recovery when you can’t reset your Apple ID password - Apple Support

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


If you are the heir:
