Hi elannah16,


If you forgot your Apple ID or password, you can try resetting them.


Apple ID: If you forgot your Apple ID email address or phone number

Password: If you forgot your Apple ID password


If you have proof of purchase documentation, you can submit an Activation Lock support ticket.
