Hi Sascha2309,

Welcome to the Apple Community, where some of us do our best to help each other :)


Your Apple ID is the account you use to access all Apple services,

such as the App Store, Apple Music, iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, iTunes and more.

Apple keeps our accounts very secure for our own protection . ..(ie: privacy / financial etc.)


The one Apple ID user name and password is mostly used for everything Apple.

If you change / reset your Apple ID or Apple ID password,

you may then need to change it everywhere you use it.


There is another discussion thread (link below) on this topic

One answer says:

If you forgot the Apple ID password, enter the Apple (iCloud) ID,

and click Forgot Password. See if you can get a Rescue or Notification email option if necessary.
