Sign out an inactive Apple ID

Can you reactivate it? See https://support.apple.com/en-us/102640

Otherwise you’ll be looking at requesting Apple remove it by providing proof of ownership. Typically in the form of an original purchase receipt of the device new from an authorized reseller. https://al-support.apple.com/#/additional-support and https://al-support.apple.com/#/al/agreement

If you see the message below, or similar "inactive" messages:

- "Inactive" Apple ID/Account

- "Verification Failed. This Apple ID is not active."

If you see an alert with a Request Access button, you might be able to request access to your account by tapping Request Access. If that does not work, this link —> https://getsupport.apple.com/?PGF=PGF63005&category_id=SC0245&symptom_id=23626 is the most direct way to get to the people helping you with this. You can also try by telephone at one of the numbers in this support article --> https://support.apple.com/HT201232 If neither of those work for you, see if you can reach any live support at Apple using https://support.apple.com/contact
