If you forgot your Apple ID

Use these steps to find your Apple ID.


Your Apple ID is the account you use to sign in to all Apple services. If you forgot your Apple ID or aren't sure that you have one, there are a few ways to find it.

Try a different email address

In most cases, your Apple ID is your email address. First, try signing in with all prior email addresses that you might have used as an Apple ID.
