How can I stop someone from hacking into my account and phone number for my iPad and iPhone and my hp laptop and changing my password? Please tell me that you know how to do that

You can also add 2 Factor Authentication to your account for more security. If the attempts continue, you might want to consider a name change.

Treat your password as a secret, and don’t re-use your password. If your password is getting hacked, then the password is not secret, is re-used, is poorly chosen, or the credentials for your password-reset path (mail account, cellular plan) is not secret.
