I accidentally reset my ipad mini to factory reset and it is requiring me to enter my apple ID. I forgot what apple ID I used during that time since it's been years already.

If you cannot remember your account information, and could not access it through iforgot, you may be able to start a process with Apple support if you have proof of ownership of your device (original receipt, etc) try getsupport.Apple.com.


without that, you will never be able to access the device.
