After how long does Apple delete an inactive account?
I wanted to log into an account that I haven't used and haven't logged into in over 4-5 years.
Question marked as
If it says it is inactive then it may mean it is still around, otherwise: Legal - iCloud - Apple
VII. B "In addition, Apple may terminate your Account upon 30 days’ prior notice via email to the address associated with your Account if (a) your Account has been inactive for one (1) year; or (b) there is a general discontinuance of the Service or any part thereof."
You might be able to request access to your account by tapping Request Access right from the alert. If that does not work, this link (versus one taking you to the general support page) is the most direct way to get to the people helping you with this —> https://getsupport.apple.com/?PGF=PGF63005&category_id=SC0245&symptom_id=23626
